Why do the Tories keep raising taxes? Where is all the money going, if not into their own pockets. Every time we get a pay rise, we pay more tax. Every time goods rise in price, we pay more tax. We're paying way more tax than a year ago, but it's never enough to maintain services

Big news! Someone finally noticed that if you hold down CTRL, the process list in Task Manager conveniently freezes so you can select rows without them jumping around. I did this so you could sort by CPU and other dynamic columns but then still be able to click stuff...

Half of England is owned by just 1% of the population. 24 Dukes own 1 million acres of land. The rest of us are shut out of it. Until that changes, we can't ensure that the nature we're blessed with is able to thrive well into the future. That's why we must extend #RightToRoam.
