If you suggest a CEO should take an £8K pay cut, they will call you a communist. If you suggest a binman should not take an £8K pay cut, they will also call you a communist. Make it make sense 🤷‍♂️

The pro-privatisation healthcare lobby claim “the NHS hasn’t been privatised” by pointing out that it still exists. What a load of nonsense - the NHS logo was carefully and cleverly branded in the 1990s and is now added to letterheads and buildings of privatised services. …

if you disagree with these two, even politely, they will either try to get you fired from your job (in the case of Helen Lewis) or accuse you of bullying them into self-harm (Emma Burnell). I've seen the latter and personally been an attempted victim of the former

Yes its true it was all there for those who bothered to read it. But I AM shocked at how fast the US system has crumbled, especially the legal system which has offered very little in the way of pushback

Palantir is the very last organisation to trust with our data, any data, let alone our priceless unique NHS data. And Streeting is actually tossing £300 million of our money to Palantir. It's bad enough that Starmer's complicit in the Israeli genocide, sending the RAF in to help Israeli bombers.

Scared people do not spend. This is a fact of economic life. Once somebody is worried about their economic future, they begin to save, and that means Trump is heading the US and the world into a recession. youtu.be/GXRhm36h7BU?...

Support for independence in Scotland is rising rapidly. There is a UK political crisis brewing as a result. Westminster might think it has the right to rule Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland forever. It's increasingly likely that they do not agree. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/04...

THIS!!!!!! It's funny how #Labour, and before them, the #Tories quite happily allow the rich to become richer - usually funded by us, but when the workers want a fair wage to cope with all the bill rises and cost of living the answer is no. Vote for a party who cares. Vote #Green on May 1st.

Is it worth having a trade deal with the US when the costs are: 1. repealing hate laws 2. accepting chlorinated chicken and highly medicated beef 3. accepting US private healthcare companies in NHS Just totally unacceptable conditions, ALL OF THEM! REJOIN THE EU, and accept pro-people conditions

The privatisation of Britain’s water infrastructure has been a complete disaster. We need to bring water into public ownership to end the shameful cycle of rip-off bills for customers, pollution in our waterways and obscene shareholder profiteering.

UK regulator to investigate Ernst & Young 2015-18 audits of the Post Office. Despite public evidence of failures, it did nothing. Now responding to pressure in parliament. Why only 2015-18? Flawed accounting system resulted in false accounts & postmaster prosecutions years before. Token inquiry?

Media, your role is to expose mechanisms of the global system and predict dangers from billionaire oligarchs and their strategists. It is not enough to chronicle events after they unfold; your duty is to expose the flaws in the system, propose remedies, and prevent calamities before they take shape.

The number of ways thisis being spun, nan. I've heard three different Labour politicians, two current and one former Birmingham City council execs., and a myriad of broadcasters... ALL spin it different ways. A ploy to confuse the general public's sympathies (whoever they support).

Not enjoying the JD Vance piece on #r4today.. “There was a strong sense he sees Britain as something rather different from Europe, wasn’t there?” Of course. We’re much more desperate and exploitable on our own. Stop looking for a ‘special relationship’ in the fake flattery of ugly nationalists.

Labour's rebrand, using Parliamentary colours and emblems, is taking on a pace. I'm confused, though. Do I need to vote any longer, now that Parliament has representatives in our constituencies, rather than constituencies having representatives in Parliament?
