I rarely travelled by train in 🇬🇧 but when I did I bought my ticket at the ticket office since I had no chance of understanding the ticket machine. I am able bodied, male, have a degree & was of working age. Ticket offices should remain. The fools running the trains should go.

Investigations by the offshore, corporate and wealthy unit, part of HMRC’s fraud investigation service, fell from 1,417 in 2018-19 to 627 in 2022-23. HMRC admits failing to collect £500bn since 2010. Wealthy individuals also hold £570bn in tax havens.

Abolish the public schools. If that’s too radical (it’s not for me) then remove their absurd charitable status & tax them. And stop rigging their results!

An algorithm that boosts private school results? This is an absolute scandal — on top the institutional scandal that 7% of the population privately educated dominate the professions like journalism, and swamp the Conservative Party.

Still smearing him in cowardly fashion then. Can we instead have the answer to his question? What is the government’s estimate of the no. of deaths resulting from a crash out Brexit? Btw. his opinion of you guys seems moderate and reasonable to me.

The solution to the Irish border problem is to rejoin the customs union & single market but doing so would make the UK a law taker rather than a law maker. Solution to that is to rejoin the EU. There are no other solutions.
