Oh boo hoo
It’s official: Andy Burnham wants to cut your pension.
It’s just mean.
Why is it always pensioners who are asked to be the first to make sacrifices?
We didn’t hear a peep from Burnham on cutting the benefits bill, foreign aid or net zero subsidies.
But that’s not all. Burnham said he was being honest but what he didn’t say was there was a gaping black hole in his numbers.
Hitting pensioners will only get him 20% of what he needs. He’ll need £17 billion more in taxes.
Coincidentally, £17bn is the same amount as levying a 10% death tax on every single person who dies. It’s a double whammy on pensioners.
Reform will make different choices. We’ll be on your side instead.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Andy Burnham pledged to maintain the state pension triple lock unchanged until 2030, after which pensions will rise by at least inflation or 2.5% annually (while holding value relative to earnings over time) to help fund social care - not cut current pensions.

If lying was a job, @LucyTCWife would be a millionaire.
Tax payer didn’t pay. Reform did.

The Clacton by-election was paid for by taxpayers, not Reform UK, as parties are not permitted to fund by-elections under electoral law. bbc.com/news/articles/… instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/by-e…

We are deeply disturbed by @POTUS sharing this hateful, racist screed targeting Indian and Chinese Americans.
Endorsing such rants as the president of the United States will further stoke hatred and endanger our communities, at a time when xenophobia and racism are already at an all time high.
We ask @realDonaldTrump to reconsider, delete this post & recognize the indelible contributions of Asian Americans to our great country.
So weird, could have sworn these guys promised to prioritise churches over other places of worship as party policy only 5 days ago?

Decent people are being terrorised by a handful of fascists. I estimate there are approx 20 in my town of 27k residents. But no-one dares take the flags down. Here's what happened to a woman who took a flag down in Crowborough.
Make them famous.
@sussex_police When will you act?
Can't work out if the production values of this show are better or worse than the revamped GMB, Lorraine and This Morning on ITV?

From the Sandie Peggie judgment.
Say it louder for the transphobes in the back.
