🚨 Labour/Tories. 🔥 Dancing to Farages tune - they are a danger to us all. 💚 We need to tackle inequality. 🚮 We can't go on like this.

If you voted Labour is this what you voted for? Rather than make the positive case for why this country absolutely benefits from migration - let alone the moral case - Labour have turned into Reform. Don't just get angry - get active. Join @greenparty.org.uk

When will Govt learn you can’t out-Reform Reform - you end up simply legitimising their toxic narrative. To see off populists, Labour needs to invest in public services & local communities, making a real difference to people’s lives - levy a wealth tax & use it to improve people’s lives *now*

Yesterday Google updated their AI Principles. Google has removed their pledge to not use AI for weapons or surveillance. “There’s a global competition taking place for AI leadership within an increasingly complex geopolitical landscape” — Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Hey @stokecityfc.bsky.social please get yourselves over here and start posting regularly!

Spain built a 385.9 mile high speed train line from Madrid to Barcelona it cost £8.1bn. The UK is still building a 140 mile high speed train line which will cost over £100bn. Who is stealing all the money?

Rachel, please listen to Louise: “I wonder what you were thinking, when things could still be changed, when science predicted the consequences of global warming with great certainty, when people who knew what they were talking about rang alarm bells all over the world” #WeTheHopeful wethehopeful.org

We just hit 200! 🥳 200 companies and more than 5000 employees, all on a fully-accredited 4-day week. With 50% more free time, they have the freedom to live happier, more fulfilling lives - and you should too. /

Labour will kill your granny and cut off their winter fuel payments. But it won't dare tax a non dom. Entirely bought & paid for by the super rich.

If true, what Labour front bench is doing is unforgivable. The #CANBill is essential & has backing of huge number of experts, scientists, unions & enjoys cross-party support. If backbench Labour MPs ever consider rebelling against leadership on anything, let it be this - a liveable future for all 👇

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

whez biskits? give biskits

He means he's backing developers and Labour donors whilst destroying the planet. Because Labour really couldn't care less about workers rights or the environment. The only thing he backs is himself.

👋 Hi Labour. We have an idea... Rather than taking money off disabled people - some of the poorest people in society - you could tax the super-rich properly and raise billions to help fix our crumbling public services 👍

People struggling to pay energy bills whilst companies make record profits. Sewage in our waters whilst water company CEOs & shareholders make billions. People skipping meals whilst Labour Government refuse wealth taxes or to invest in our country. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

They don’t care about you .

The NHS must be for people, not profit. I welcome new NHS investment, but I'm genuinely worried about the risks of creeping privatisation. The NHS must remain publicly owned, publicly run, and for public benefit.

This is why you don't privatise essential services. On Wednesday you paid 100x the cost for Gas used. Why? Because they can.

Keir Starmer says UK Treasury will be "ruthless" on public spending cuts. It's continuation of Tory austerity. How many will be deprived of food, housing, healthcare, education ...? Lives sacrificed to appease corporations, the rich and neoliberal dogma www.theguardian.com/society/2025...
