The point everyone seems to overlook is that the bulk of the subsidy goes to Network Rail and is fixed by the ORR Periodic Review until 31 March 2029. If you strip out track access charges to NR the TOC subsidy is around £700 million a year of the "unsustainable" £12 billion.

She would have banned her younger self. Now that really is some deep self-hatred...
Power corrupts.
Selling your soul and values down the river.

BREAKING: NOT GUILTY AFTER SPRAY PAINTING MI5
In 2022 Tez sprayed orange paint over the entrance of the MI5 headquarters to demand an end to new oil and gas licensing.
They were acquitted of criminal damage today after being told that a prosecution would not be in the public interest.
Other things that are not in the public interest:
❌Rosebank
❌Jackdaw
❌Any new oil and gas drilling

Starmer wouldn't have said it had he not known he would get away with it. Our political/media estate will dutifully repeat his lie, turning it into a 'fact'. History will be rewritten.
Starmer will not 'correct the record', because this now is the record.

"The prime minister today falsely claimed that Labour was found to be ‘institutionally antisemitic’ under my leadership. There was no such finding, and Keir Starmer should have the decency to correct the record"

An untrained and unlicensed Lime bike rider dangerously rides on the wrong side of the road into incoming traffic and almost causes an accident.
It's time cyclists were forced to learn the highway code like motorists have to.

Andy Burnham talks of "criticising" Israel.
Which bit is his government going to "criticise"?
Deliberately shooting children in the head?
Murdering 1,600 medics?
Deliberately starving a civilian population?

Don’t anyone ever forget the role which @campbellclaret played in the Iraq invasion. He, like Blair, Bush and very many other political figures in UK and US have the 1m deaths on their hands. They are true filth

And yet Blair said he'd do it all over again. There's no hell hot enough for him.

On this day in 2003, David Kelly, the man who tried to warn the world about the lies of the British government’s claims that Iraq possessed WMDs to justify the illegal invasion, was found dead.
He was one of Britain's most respected weapons experts and raised concerns that the government's case for war had been exaggerated.
The BBC reported that the infamous claim Iraq could deploy weapons of mass destruction within 45 minutes had been "sexed up" to strengthen the case for invasion. Dr. Kelly was identified as the source.
Just days later, on the 18th of July 2003, he was found dead near his home, the official story was that he had committed suicide. Many do not believe that narrative.
No stockpiles of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction were ever found. David Kelly was proven right, as Iraq was smouldering in ruin.
1 million people were killed as a result of George W. Bush’s and Tony Blair’s lies. The entire region was destabilised, and ISIS and Al Qaeda rose as a result.

@Keir_Starmer , the "forever" liar.

For a once-respected lawyer to decide that facts are not important and that inquiries can be buried is a very odd choice of legacy.
But here we are.
The culmination of his time as DPP is his creation of police-state apparatus.
Making tools for far-right actors.

Starmer also said "Six years ago, I inherited a Labour Party that was politically, financially and morally bankrupt"
Under Corbyn, Lab raised record sums; £55M in 2017
He left the party with £13.5M in reserves
Starmer lost 200k members & Lab was close to bankruptcy in 2021
1/3
On the day of his last #PMQs, Keir Starmer is telling a lot of lies as he tries to set the narrative of his political legacy
One is that he inherited an unpopular party and made it popular
