This, from my friend Marie Tidball, is quite helpful.

Interesting that some people are choosing to ignore that it has not been abolished for those on pension credits. If you'd rather public money went to people like Jagger, McCartney and Elton John than those who really need it in other areas then I'm not sorry you're disappointed with yesterday.

To hear the outrage you'd think every pensioner was being forced to give £350 to an illegal immigrant. But the "MSM" wanted Starmer to become Prime Minister.

At the risk of recycling an old gag about Jim Davidson, the worst thing about being a WW2 veteran is the constant queue of wankers like Fargle lining up to do a photo opportunity with you.

Yep, this is a good measure, keeping the 2 child benefit cap isn't.
I terms of toughing out and maintaining market confidence, this is pretty much the perfect measure for that.
Laura Trott's response to Reeves saying that she'd be happy if no money was saved and everybody got what they were entitled to, is quite pathetic.
This admission confirms what we all knew, which is that Labour’s winter fuel payments cut for 10 million pensioners is a political choice, not driven by finances. And she's apparently never heard of whipping.
The Labour MPs were marched through the lobbies yesterday on false pretences by a chancellor who has planned to do this all along
Reeves dealt with that point. It's a much better political choice.

Farage bobbed up at PMQs today to ask a typically fatuous and twattish question about "two tier policing". I was gratified to note that he appeared to be jeered at from both sides of the chamber for doing so..

If he did, they'd accuse him of being a prying monster, buying into far right wing replacement theory. Someone like Fenton's twat would start calling him "Queef Starer".
Shades of Harriet Harman and domestic violence*.
*Recap for the new people - in 2008 or so, an NSPCC report said that DV was on the rise. Cue worried think-pieces in the Mail and Express asking what the world was coming to, what this said about modern morality and so on. Then Harman said it was a serious issue, and suddenly both papers launched into "Keep your nose out of people's private business, Harperson!" articles.

As it's come from the EU, I'm surprised the Brexiters aren't urging vows of celibacy! Enough of this filthy foreign BREEDING!!

Natalism doesn't have a rigid left-right divide which makes the debates interesting and less partisan. A neat libertarian argument as to why we shouldn't worry about falling birthrates is that the price of labour will shoot up giving capital an incentive to invest in advanced mechanisation.

I doubt Farage's voters are entirely sympathetic to natalism as there's 'too many ungrateful woke lefty kids as it is.'

He'd call it "Bonk for Britain" and there'd be posters of him and Johnson gurning at the camera while holding inflatable willies. The Sun would love it and we'd all roll over and die.

Stanley and Boris Johnson have long advocated population control but evidently not for themselves. Its the grinning picaninnies who they feel are breeding too fast.
