Its very easy to tax the rich, all their wealth comes from the properties and companies they own, and these can't move. That's what they don't want you to know.

Dear Cornish people, if you don’t stand up and oppose the 16 SEZs that are being installed right now in Cornwall, you can expect to see all public services privatised and absorbed by private equity, corporate taxes unpaid while ordinary citizens taxes are hiked>

High Court hearing today on Thames Water plan to borrow another £3bn. Already has £17bn debt, mostly to fund dividends, wants 53% price hike. Nearly a third of customer bill covers interest payments. More debt= higher bills. Let it go bankrupt. Nationalise at nominal price.

HMRC hasn't prosecuted anyone for enabling tax evasion in 5 years. But it fined 95,000 people who dodged nothing, £100 each because their returns were slightly late. HMRC, pinching the pennies, ignoring the stolen Pounds.

We are in 2025, we have now lost all the progress we made on inequality in most Western Countries since WW2. From 1945-1980 we advanced, for 45 years we have declined. Soon we will be back to the Great Depression. But we won't stop there.

In 2018 we left the EU's Water Regulation body and their massive fines. Then sewage dumping increased 20x. Before Brexit we had some of the cleanest water in Europe. Now it is by far the dirtiest.

In light of Mick Lynch’s announcement that he is to retire as GS of the RMT Union, I’d have loved to have watched him go head to head with Elon Musk Maybe he still will…

Mick has been a real leader to all in the rail industry, we have a lot to thank him for. He was the right man at the right time. Wishing him a happy and relaxed retirement.

Global survey of graduates to find most attractive countries graduates would move to if they could. The UK has fallen the most. No prizes for guessing why: it's Brexit. We're still getting foreign students, but this means many of the world's best students now look to other countries first.

If you care about the future of the NHS & you see this on Boxing Day, please could you share this? If we want privatisation to be removed from the NHS, NHS campaigners like me have a lot of work to do next year and…I’d just like to see if people care enough about this for our campaigning to work…

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services. Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt. While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of £10tn. That's how privatisation 'works'.
