There's no subtlety here. Israel's Defence Minister has declared that Gaza's civilian population will suffer collective punishment. He's declared those civilians will suffer "destruction and total devastation" unless Hamas releases the hostages and is overthrown. Genocidal.

Labour is going to pick on the vulnerable in its desire to balance its books. There is no need to do so. The wealthy get higher levels of state subsidies than the vulnerable. So why not cut the benefits of the wealthy instead? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/03...

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

BP is abandoning green energy and is to massively increase oil production, increasing the threat to life on Earth as a result, all in the name of making short-term profits to keep hedge funds happy. This is madness that threatens us all. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/02...

Today, thousands of us demonstrated outside the US embassy with a message for Donald Trump: hands off Gaza. The resilience of the Palestinian people will not be broken — and nor will our solidarity. We will be here for as long as it takes until there is a free and independent Palestine.

But Liz Truss DID NOT crash the economy. She made it grow! Remember she said she’d trickle down on us all? I was showered by her drips. Rich, moist & luscious. We danced in her fiscal liquids. Splashed in her budgetary juices. Liz you made my wife Bunty so wet, she loved it! ❤️

The next crash could be much bigger than the last two www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/12... The extreme financialisation of the economy must be approaching the point where it is no longer sustainable. When that happens the crash will be of a wholly different scale to 2008, or 2020.
