How much better off we would all be had he flipped and both of the ghouls died in the wreckage. Seems all the worst ones get a pass…

Yet further proof that the takeaway delivery industry is just a smokescreen to screw consumers over. ✔️Increased prices for consumer ✔️Below minimum wage pay for zero hours ‘employees’ ✔️Bogus providers, even harder for the genuine independent But hey, billions for the ‘disruptors’.

Ever wondered where the dozens of supposedly independent gourmet burger outlets in your local area suddenly sprung up from? Well it turns out many of them are being run out of the exact same pub kitchens, using the exact same food, under entirely different names. bylinetimes.com/2024/12/12/b...

Thanks Carole and colleagues. Can’t overlook how important your sacrifice is here in trying to keep the Guardian/Observer free from billionaire influence. I’ll support the only way I can, by boycotting the Guardian during the strike days

With billionaires buying up and using legacy media as mouthpiece’s for their fascistic agendas, this is incredibly concerning. Feels like the Guardian/Observer is the last bastion of trustworthy journalism, and it’s in great peril. Please boycott during the strike days!!

Whether it's Tim Walz expanding his state's school lunch program or Matt Gaetz giving cocaine and Ecstasy to underage sex workers, both sides have taken controversial approaches to feeding children.

FFS, as if there aren’t a million more important things than targeting smokers. Sort out the water companies first and foremost. There’s so many fucking open goals…bank them www.theguardian.com/politics/art...

Great article by Arwa Mahdawi in today’s Guardian. Genuinely, how can normal folk punish such irresponsible behaviour by mega corps? I can’t boycott what I already don’t buy… www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
