#KemiBadenoch says that the #UK was built on #FossilFuels. But #Ecotricity founder #DaleVince dismisses Bad Enoch's fantasy. He says that the UK was "built on slavery, on racism, on colonialism, on Empire. We abused the rest of the world to be a rich country" Dale Vince is of course entirely right. So his comments should be commonplace and unworthy of sharing. But the UK has never de-imperialised. So Dale is on his own. 😡 #ukpol #BritishEmpire #colonialism #slavery #racism #imperialism

BBC News | Stop families who choose not to work getting unlimited benefits, Tories say AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The Conservatives have pledged to reform the household benefit cap so that only families in which every adult who can work does so will be exempt, ending the automatic exemption for benefits such as Personal Independence Payment and limiting unlimited welfare payments; under the plan, a couple would need to each work at least 16 hours a week (or a single adult 16 hours) to qualify, while other households would face the cap based on location, household size and children, with the government estimating at least £1 billion of annual savings. The party says the changes will target “abuse” of the system and promote work, while critics warn that tighter limits could trap low‑income, part‑time or unemployed families in poverty.
