My kids love waving at train drivers, they get so excited.
I've also been told by drivers that they also enjoy being waved at, sometimes it even makes their day!

A key problem with Rachel Reeves plan to save ยฃ5bn by cutting disability benefits eligibility is that many of those costs will need to be picked up by Councils (who are already in grim budgetary position).
So not only is this a policy penalising the vulnerable to free up money for defence, it will also likely compound local problems while ensuring for many disabled people any (posited) reforms of the system will be way too late to help them.
Its a disgrace!

Councils and NHS could face millions in extra costs due to disability benefit cuts
Government plans for Pip cuts will drive up costs for local authority social care services and NHS, campaigners warnChaminda Jayanetti (The Guardian)
Where is the extra going to come from Chris, where if we do not make cuts somewhere is the extra money we need to support our NHS our School and other Government departments going to come from.
We know the UKs economy has crashed since Brexit, even if we rejoin the EU tomorrow that extra won't come it yet so, where is the extra coming from?
Do we get into more debt?
@RichardJMurphy sets out to try & understand what POTUS Trump is actually trying to achieve, and (rightly, in my view) settles on a central mission to neuter the institutions of countervailing power (to use J.K.Galbraith's term, not Murphy's) that have dared to try to constrain the billionnaire oligarchs in the past. Key to this is a move to shift what remains of governance functions to the state level to diffuse & weaken any residual power capacities.

She made many important contributions to abstract algebra. She proved Noether's 1st and 2nd theorems, which are fundamental in mathematical physics. She developed theories of rings, fields, & algebras. In physics, Noether's theorem explains the connection between symmetry & conservation laws.

God sent a freezing wind for Trump's inauguration. Somehow you wonder why these so-called Christians don't read the signs on the wall.
Last time she did this was for Reagan's second term. Looks like there is a consistent pattern.

Let me tell you about the most wasteful US federal government spending I know about. It's a humdinger. You and everyone you know are mired in it for weeks, or perhaps months, every year. It will cost you, personally, thousands of dollars over your lifetime. I'm talking about filing your taxes.
