We MUST update our social security system so it's there for everyone when they need it.

We're joining @jrf-uk.bsky.social, food banks and charities to call on MPs to support steps towards an #EssentialsGuarantee to move us closer to a future where everyone can afford the essentials.

The government promised to end the need for emergency food.

Now is the time to hold them to account.

That means rethinking cruel cuts and ensuring everyone can afford the essentials.

Meanwhile in the current #CostOfLivingCrisis, Britain's #royal #parasite #KingCharles continues to #LiveInLuxury at the public's expense. Yet still hasn't paid a penny in #InheritanceTax on Lizzie's £Billions.

Its time to #TaxTheRich &
#AbolishTheMonarchy

Meanwhile, you’ll insist in paying millions for one dysfunctional family to live in immense luxury with many palaces - to do nothing in exchange, in the name of a feudalistic tradition that has no place in the modern world. The UK should become a republic!

Stop the narrative that tax pays for government spending, it doesn't. The government can create the money it needs any time it. Poverty is a political choice.
