Heavy monsoon rains and flash #floods in #Pakistan kill at least 72 and injure over 130

The National Disaster Management Authority urged local officials to remain on high alert and advised tourists to avoid visiting affected areas, as more rains could block highways and trigger flash floods



#PhotoOfTheDay is of one of my early railroad spike twists. I grabbed this photo because I love the forging scale that has peeled from the surface like burned fragments of paper.

Discussions afoot for the best translation into English of "buongiorno un cazzo".

- Good fucking day.

- Fuck your "good day"

- your "hello" can go get fucked (maybe a bit too long?)

Any offers of a better one?

If Rachel Reeves & the Treasury have to listen to the rich, instead of listening to the wealth advice industry (lobby) or the right wing media, it might be better if they listened to the Patriotic Millionaires;

they're well organised, are happy to pay more tax & often find the debate about the rich leaving the country due to tax reasons misses a key thing; actually the rich are often happy to contribute to the UK remaining a stable and fair(er) society.

"the rich are often happy to contribute to the UK "

They already cough up - The 10% of income taxpayers with the largest incomes contribute over 60% of income tax receipts.

However - Borrowing for the UK £131 billion deficit is equivalent to around £1,920 p.a.. per man women and child. Probably 4k per tax payer of dead money. Happy to help BUT, you might get a little bitter when you are funding £9Bn of F-35B Lightning II etc.

Save up to fund useless toys - borrow (if you must) to fund vital services and investing in future prosperity

in reply to Peter Henry

Indeed, but its the proportion of income that is more interesting - and those with large UK-based income (such as Denise Coates) are making a major contribution, but there a re a lot who are 'managing' their tax affairs not to.... it was those I was thinking of (whose wealth is more important than their income)... but I also take your point about disquiet about what the money is being spent on (which would echo a lot what some of the non-rich are saying too)

Oh goody I’ve got a new pandemic on my 2025 #BingoCard: RFK's [idiotic] proposal to let bird flu spread thru poultry could set us up for a pandemic, experts warn

We already allowed China to get ahead of us by making the first pandemic, we need to catch up and create our own!

many of these so called “groups” aren’t even really groups. Many of them a troll farm accounts created by Russian , Chinese or even Iranian governments groups whose sole purpose is to stoke division among the western populations.

So be careful when giving any light to these accounts. Giving them attention at all is sometimes as bad as the original post.
