Rachel from Accounts is looking for another trough to put her snout in.
Sources with knowledge of the meetings, which came just ahead of this week’s Budget, say Reeves and her top aide discussed the political advice they could offer

And it was the riot police that turned it violent.
NEW: Fireworks explode and tear gas fills the streets of Paris as protesters clash with heavily equipped riot police.
Officers charge into crowds and make arrests as a largely peaceful march of 110,000 people turns violent.
Nearly 1,000 people were arrested Saturday nationwide according to French officials.

I really don’t understand if capitalism is so great then why do big corporations need tax breaks, subsidies, grants, bailouts and extra legal protections to survive and when ordinary people like you and me ask for help then it suddenly becomes socialism. Why so much hypocrisy?
This is obscene. Occupied people have a right to resist their occupiers. This is collective punishment and therefore a war crime.
Israeli forces demolished homes and damaged roads in Hebron in the occupied West Bank, forcing around 1,200 Palestinians to leave their homes a day after a Palestinian attack killed two Israeli soldiers reut.rs/3ULnOwX
BBC News report saying two Israeli soldiers were killed by ‘Palestinian gunmen’ on the West Bank. The BBC are beyond hope.
And there’s me thinking the World couldn’t be any more fucked up than it already is, and the oil barons scream: hold my beer.
‼️ WE ARE ABOUT TO WITNESS THE BIGGEST WAR IN HISTORY FOR THE SURVIVAL OF PETRODOLLAR
US military has quietly been scaling back its troop presence at bases across the Middle East.
US Embassies in the Middle East have been ordered evacuation of non-emergency staff members and families.
Similar evacuation orders were issued during the 40-day war in 2026, before conflict broke out.
Over $750,000,000,000 wiped out from the US stock market at open today on worries about oil surge and AI.
Iran has also announced that if the U.S.-Israel attack happens again, entire American infrastructure will be targeted in the region including data centers, sea optic cables and American companies.
Iran has already laid down the new law of energy: Every single barrel of oil that passes through the Strait of Hormuz, the artery carrying ~20% of the world’s crude, must be settled in Chinese yuan. No dollars.
The moment that demand sticks, the 50-year monopoly that forced the world to recycle oil revenues into U.S. Treasuries collapses overnight. The petrodollar doesn’t weaken. It dies. And the yuan (backed by real oil flow) becomes the new settlement currency of the energy world.
Jeff Currie, former Goldman Sachs head of commodities and lifelong insider of the dollar system, just laid out the one line America cannot cross. Handing control of the Strait of Hormuz to Iran is not a tactical retreat. It is the formal end of the United States as global hegemon and the death of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon said that Iran had its “throat on the Strait of Hormuz” for 45+ years and told the Trump administration to “finish this thing and finish it right.”
The faith of the fiat system is now being decided in the skies over the Middle East.

The claim in Sir David Bell's report that 3 in 5 Jewish students have experienced antisemitism was based on just 29 people - and was untrue.

You're silent because it's not your son, are you?
You're silent because your house wasn't destroyed!
But a person doesn't stay silent!
They react!
Stuff the planet I’m alright, Jack.
Pay off your mortgage for the house you will be forced to sell to pay off your social care costs.

More than any other account, Israel hates THIS account. They hate it.

Incredible
The past 20 days have marked one of the most monolithic pushes by British media to vilify the Zionism is Racism Green Party motion.
Imbalanced coverage would be an understatement.
The papers wrote 447 articles on the Greens' Zionism vote. Israel, pro-Israel groups and the Chief Rabbi got 12,133 words. Palestinians got 3,173.
Any institution that parades as a "news outlet" can no longer be taken seriously if it covers this motion without also covering the people, Palestinians, who have endured, suffered and been oppressed the most by the ideology in action.
What the figures show:
• Israel's government alone got 3,904 words. More than every Palestinian put together.
• 2,422 of the 3,173 Palestinian words came in stories tying Lubna Speitan, the Palestinian who proposed the motion, to al-Qaeda.
• Apart from Lubna, two Palestinians were quoted across 436 articles, for 76 words between them. Nobody in Gaza, the occupied West Bank or Lebanon was quoted at all.
• Lubna told the Telegraph that 56 members of her family had been killed in Gaza. One article mentioned it: the Telegraph's own al-Qaeda story, in paragraph 44 of 51.
• Lubna has received death and rape threats since the vote. Al Jazeera reported it. None of the 447 British articles did.
• 43 articles said, in the paper's own voice, that the motion meant the destruction or abolition of Israel. The motion calls for one state with "equal rights for all".
• 36 headlines said antisemitism. Not one of 447 said genocide.
• 304 of the 436 articles we read in full never mentioned the genocide at all.
• 0 of 89 comment pieces backed the motion.
• The Daily Mail ran 38 articles on the motion, and in that time, just 2 on Israel's ongoing attacks across Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon.

Aid agencies are having to reduce aid to Gaza because of a shortage of funds. Some families are reduced to eating a meal every two days. Meanwhile the US is giving Israel $ millions in military support.
