    I agree his lack of knowledge about EU & inability to challenge on most important issue of the day Brexit & presumption it's all a HMG done deal is inappropriate for the premier UK BBC national radio political programme which is I've abandoned after 30 years of avid listening to!

    Just tweeted important thread by on case for much higher tax on the super rich. Research like this, plus my experience over 40 years, persuade me this is right. There should also be a 30% Educational Opportunity Tax on private school school fees in the UK

    Every time you think Rees-Mogg couldn’t become more extreme & irresponsible, he does. Eton & the English class system have a lot to answer for

    Some of my civil service friends don’t like my criticism on Brexit. But how can it be that Grayling’s dodgy ferry contract was signed without an official direction? And that obscene no deal Brexit preparations, alarming the country, proceed with no parliamentary authorisation?

    This contract cannot possibly have been concluded with normal legal oversight. No self respecting legal team would put their name to such a dodgy deal. There is NO trading record, and the port is not suitable for the proposed task, without £ millions of investment. This stinks..

  11. Setting an example to the Government, which should not be charging these fees at all. Deeply shameful

    There were quite a few falsehoods in John Redwood's interview, but perhaps the biggest was that we trade with everywhere but the EU on WTO rules. Unchallenged by Humphrys of course.

    We support this. - please could you arrange for the European flag to be flown on all civic buildings with a flagpole. As a proud European city it is a long overdue measure.

    A quick thread on the economics of a much higher top rate for the super-rich. TL;DR version is that is on very solid ground here. There is a lot of evidence that from an economic and fiscal perspective, we'd be way better off with top rates approaching 70.
