We call on France to exercise restraint when dispersing the freedom fighters on the streets of Paris. These brave warriors for justice must receive immediate humanitarian aid, and their safety must be guaranteed in accordance with international law. Failure to comply will leave us no choice but to bring a case before the ICJ, in close cooperation with that renowned champion of human rights, Afghanistan.

When I set my business up 10 years ago today Employers NI was 13.8%, Corporation Tax was 20% falling to 19% in Apr 2017. The tax free dividend allowance was £5,000, the top rate of tax on dividends was 38.1%. You could sell your business and make the first £10 million of gains at a rate of 10%.
By every single metric setting up a business in this country has become less attractive. Before you get to the mechanism actually trying to do anything as bold as opening a bank account working a 5 day week etc...

Andy Burnham: "I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help."
He's joking, right? About 46% of the price of filling up your tank is TAX. That's absolutely something the PM could do something about. And how about expanding drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea?
I know people are worried about fuel prices. And I get it. You get to the pump, watch the numbers climb, and wonder why it's costing so much more than it used to.
The reality is that global events are pushing up costs, and families here at home are feeling the impact.
But I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help.
That's why from today, you'll be able to see petrol and diesel prices on Google Maps, compare nearby stations and find the cheapest option before you fill up.
It's a small change, but if there's a practical way to help people keep more money in their pocket, I'll do it.

The flight will now cost £100, you economically illiterate moron @andyburnham.
You know that feeling when you book a flight for 50 quid and somehow it ends up costing 100?
Getting seats together, correcting a typo, another charge here and there, it all adds up.
When the cost of living is already squeezing people, those endless extras can feel relentless.
So we're changing the rules for you.
Parents won't need to pay a penny extra just to sit next to their own children.
You'll be able to fix any name errors on your booking free of charge.
And because the last thing you want once you're on the plane is more stress, we're working with the industry to make sure that disruptive passengers who have been banned from one airline can be banned from flying with other airlines too.
I know holidays are expensive and these are small things, but hopefully they'll make your trip just that little bit cheaper and easier.
That's exactly the kind of thing I want this government to keep on fixing.

What the hell does how a private company chooses to charge its customers have to do with the government? If you don't like Ryanair or whoever, don't fly with them.
This will, as night follows day, lead to a reduction in supply and the overall cost rising as the separate charges are rolled in. And if that's banned, an even bigger reduction in supply.
We are governed by idiots.

Getting drenched in beer and then having the goal (incorrectly) ruled out by VAR five minutes later will be the perfect encapsulation of Britain in 2027.
