#FactoryFarming #FastFashion & #PlasticWaste - what a world our current system has made www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

In which the BBC fail to mention that Hegseth has also fired the armed forces lawyers - the folks who ensure armed forces are acting within the law (thanks to @fpwellman.bsky.social ) USA is a lawless country with an undermined military capability www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The UK's anti-protest laws pre-legitimise far right authoritarianism. Labour must repeal them now. My column today. www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

It’s a cult.

Powerful. Tomorrow’s front page of the most influential weekly publication in Germany. “BETRAYED. First Zelensky, Soon Us? The radical departure of the US from its allies.”

REMEMBER: Next Friday, February 28. NOT 1 PENNY SPENT. We can do this. I'm IN, are you? 👋💙

Keir Starmer is on course to facilitate the far-right winning not only the next election but he is actively executing far-right policies from the neoliberal playbook. Thread www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

MPs have quietly been handed a pay rise while the rest of us suffer a cost of living crisis. But every MP has the option to refuse to take it, or donate it to charity. We call on every MP to turn down the pay rise. Sign the petition: r.ippl.es/mps-pay-2024/

The armed forces should be investigated for systemic abuse - not given more money In spite of mounting evidence of systemic misogyny, homophobia, harassment, and abuse, Keir Starmer is ramping up support for the armed forces and planning to spend more on them. www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Thought for the day.

The BBC doesn't work the Government have let it turn into a billionaire controlled propaganda station for Israel, the USA and the Far Right. It should be closed down and replaced by a BBC run by the people who pay for it. And YOU should select who is in control.

#Privatisation working just fine. We've been overcharged by £4bn for our energy. Will that money be refunded to us? Will OFGEM step in? Will Miliband step in? Will Reeves use an excess profit tax? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

And who they didn't like
