In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents. It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years. There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

“As an editorial cartoonist, my job is to hold powerful people & institutions accountable. For the first time, my editor prevented me from doing that critical job..I will not stop holding truth to power through my cartooning.. “Democracy dies in darkness” 👏 anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

Pity Farage wasn’t asked about this - he should be forced to own it @bbclaurak.bsky.social @theneweuropean.bsky.social

Happy Sunday lovely phone family. We've had a smattering of snow here ❄️ Anyone else? The gap between the poorest and richest in society has become a huge chasm. I hope future generations change this for the better, but for now we have to stand together ❤️ Have a great day 😘 #HaveCourageAndBeKind 🥰

The London Economic has film from Tory private member’s club hosted by Guido Fawkes, attended by Johnson, Farage, Truss, Jenrick, Anderson etc It shows guests laughing at Nazi jokes & the host singing “we’re all racist now” 😳😡 They distance themselves from Robinson but they’re him in posh suits❗️

The Farage-athon in our media has to stop.All he represents is the weaponisation of prejudice to keep people angry and uninformed. But headlines about him go on and on, building up a myth instead of exposing him for the nasty little con artist he is. Years of this shit. Please can 2025 be different.

BBC’s Chris Mason calls Farage a “master of storytelling” Maybe the BBC could stop helping him out and tell another story.One about a grifting prejudiced conman who’s wrecked our country with his ‘Breaking Point’ Brexit but has never been held to account for the lies he’s told, the damage he’s done.

Whenever someone tries to silence me, it only makes me louder. I know what it’s like to have a hand over my mouth and a boot on my neck. I know what it’s like to have someone steal your voice from you. But I got out of it. I emerged stronger. And I will never let anyone silence me ever again.

Good morning lovely phone family. How's everyone doing today? 🥰 It's important to remember this when it feels like everyone around us is getting into the festive spirit. It's never easy losing loved ones, but somehow it always feels harder at Christmas 💔🫂 Have a great day 😘 #HaveCourageAndBeKind

Reports like this👇🏼aren’t helpful and show BBC bias 😡 “Government has broken the law on sewage, says watchdog” Oh how Badenoch, Farage etc will jump on that blaming Labour for toxic water, despite only circa 6 mths in power It should read ‘Tory Governments has broken the law on sewage’ 🤷🏼‍♂️
