When confronted by Labour backbencher Olivia Blake with the fact that 14,000 Palestinian babies will die over the next 48hrs unless aid reaches them, David Lammy says the government are keeping it in mind. Newsflash Dave… That won’t stop it! 😐

Austerity Britain continues. Foodbank use is up 5,000% - yet where are Labour? 200,000 children used foodbanks for the first time last year - yet now Labour will plunge 670,000 people into deeper poverty? www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

If y'all just got a tax cut last night, then I hope you'll add that amount to your monthly local foodbank donation. Folks are going to need it, especially kids and seniors. 🥹

Today, we’re bringing a resolution to Amazon’s AGM, demanding that the company disclose data center & AI impacts on its Climate Pledge. Amazon is up to its old tricks: cooking the books AND the planet, and hoping no one will notice. Check back tomorrow for a video of our speech!

AECJ did the math on Amazon's real climate impact, and it's pretty damning.

In Gary Lineker the BBC have fired one of the very few people who isn't a problem. What an absolutely disgusting and biased organisation it has become.

Keir Starmer is now saying that the carnage in #Gaza is too much. I'm glad his position is moving. It's a shame that he said that Israel had a right to do it back in 2023. How did he think that would affect Gazans at the time? That's why there are international laws on this.

So a patient known to be unable to speak being sent repeated telephone appointment letters. Number to call on the letter is of course not correct. Given an alternative that just rings out. No email address. This is simple stuff that magnified across the NHS has huge impact.

I live here. The hotels get about £4,500 per month per #AsylumSeeker. I've had a Ukrainian living with me for the last 2 & a half years. I get £350 per month. That's more than 90% cheaper than the hotel option. Extend the scheme so that ordinary ppl get the money. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I'm no longer in the Labour party so I cannot call for a vote of no confidence in Starmer (from within the party)... but I wish they would. He's broken the only properly socialist Labour Party that we'd had in years. #StopTheMoveToTheRight #PeopleWantChange #EndAusterity

When I was on a leadership course from work (several years ago now!) the speaker said that the holy grail of leadership was "concessionary effort". #ConcessioinaryEffort is getting people to work for free. Staying late, arriving early, not taking lunch breaks, you know the type of thing. #Capitalism

Do you remember when Covid started and the supermarket shelves were stripped bare? There was no shortage of anything. People just panicked. Deliberately being starved is something we all fear and when you look at Gaza you can realise why. #LetTheAidThrough

People say, "Socialism promotes people getting something for nothing!" Has your boss ever asked you to come in early or go late with no extra pay? That's capitalism. They definitely want #SomethingForNothing. Do you have any more examples?

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

I have seen many images of people who don't look like the allocation they were given when they were born. Let's abandon gender specific loos and give everyone the privacy they need for performing natural functions. Relying on the bias of #ToiletPolice is not working well.

Colonial Carnage, a 🧵... The other two threads in this trilogy list wars and assassinations, but it is impossible to gauge how many people have been murdered by the British Empire because so much killing is entirely undocumented, and it would take volumes to account for what is known.

If you think voting for a right-wing party is the answer, you've got three to choose from. If you think we're better off looking out for each other rather than lining the pockets of the absurdly rich, punching down and destroying our future, vote Independent Socialist or Green.
