Another wolf in sheep’s clothing

RIP Patrick Stewart. What an actor. I still can’t believe he agreed to do this scene. And he didn’t even mind when I ruined every take. Legend.

Here’s what expenses Caroline Voaden claimed in one year… you paid the bill.

🚨 WATCH: Labour MP Tony Vaughan’s personal statement in the Commons after bullying a staffer.

No thanks. Badenoch is terrible, gobby & arrogant doesn't equate to competent. She's ditched everything she said she believed in a few years ago for expediency.

Labour have done more for the working class than any other party.

SHE WAS ON FIRE! 🔥🔥🔥 WHAT A SHOW WOMAN 👏👏 Kemi Badenoch ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED Bridget Phillipson and Lucy Powell in this PMQs showdown! She took them on SINGLE-HANDEDLY, leaving both struggling to respond as Badenoch turned up the heat 🔥‼️

Normally we'd be talking about Andy Burnham, the Budget or John Healey. Not today. Joshua, founder of the Crewkerne Gazette, has lost his fiancée Lucy, mother of their three young boys. If you're able to help with her funeral, or simply share, it would mean the world 🙏 — Alex

🚨 SUMMARY: The OBR forecasts following John Healey's Budget - Welfare spending will rise to £431.3bn by 2030/31 - an increase of £97.5bn a year in cash terms - This includes £209.8bn on pensioner benefits, £110.7bn on Universal Credit, £69.6bn on disability benefits, £13.9bn on Child Benefit and £27.2bn on other welfare - Inflation will peak at 3.75% in early 2027, up from the earlier prediction of 2% - UK GDP growth will slow from around 1.25% in 2026 to 1% in 2027, before climbing to 1.6% in 2031 - Average UK unemployment will rise to 5.1% across 2026 and 2027 - The Employment Rights Act will "likely" have a negative economic impact because of reduced flexibility and greater uncertainty for businesses - The landlord tax increases (property income) could contribute to a long-term rise in private rents and discourage landlords from entering the market - Real household disposable income per person will be around 0.75% lower in 2030-31 than it expected in March 2026 - Higher earnings and frozen tax thresholds will increase income tax and National Insurance receipts by £9bn in 2026-27 and around £8bn on average in subsequent forecast years compared with March - Net migration is forecast to fall to 120,000 in the year to mid-2026, then gradually rise to 230,000 by the year to mid-2031 - Nominal weekly earnings growth will slow to around 3.5% in 2026, then average roughly 2.25% a year - Andy Burnham's first-time buyer scheme could raise house prices by increasing demand without enough new homes being built
