Keir Starmer, "My priority — my only priority — is the people of Britain, and what makes them better off" So why is Labour keeping the UK outside of EU Single Market?

It’s another Saturday at the library! And I know the world is pretty terrible right now, but our books are still free for the lending, and that’s pretty nice. If you’re feeling stressed, maybe stop by your local branch for a little quiet reading time :)

Child poverty rose in Labour-run England, but it fell in SNP-run Scotland. Analysis by the Child Poverty Action Group puts this down to the Scottish Child Payment. It's time Labour followed Scotland's lead.

The UK exports £360bn of goods to the EU, on which we now struggle with big non tariff barriers, compared to £60bn to the US. Imagine looking at this sh1tshow and thinking it vindicates Brexit in any way.

One thing about today's tariff shitshow is that congress could undo all this nonsense tonight and the damage would still be huge, because these actions have decisively signaled that the US is an unreliable international trading partner—and this impacts political and economic strategy worldwide.

Energy bills up 6.4% — while network providers raked in £4 billion in “excess” profits over four years. Water bills up 26% — while firms paid £78 billion in dividends since privatisation & racked up £64 billion in debt. End this scam. Bring water & energy into public ownership.

Added another study to my ongoing thread of basic income study results. This one focused on the impacts of monthly cash on young parents with caregiving responsibilities in community college. Importantly, it helped pay for childcare, which enabled school AND jobs, and even more time with their kids

If you don't like poverty, then support the one policy that can truly abolish it, which is unconditional universal basic income. Income for basic survival is a human right in a world where all the land once free is now owned. Income from work should be to obtain everything beyond basic survival.

It’s very discouraging to watch our country slowly re-learn the lessons that led to the end of segregation, among them that people who think they’re racially superior are nearly universally incompetent fools unable to face up to their own deficiencies and putting them in charge is suicide
