Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

Nobody ever tells me what I can and can’t write, which is why independent media is surging and media controlled by billionaire oligarchs is not. My success or failure is determined by the readers, not by a guy circling the globe in an obscene yacht.

People reporting that free speech no longer exists in the UK. This is today’s front page of a national newspaper. The Orange Felon will not be happy 🤣

If you control the media, you control the narrative. This is what the Nazis did. Along with seizing control of the judiciary, this is what fascists do.

Professor Brian Cox - brain the size of a planet "My thought for the day. Single Market. Customs Union. More money for defence. Strengthen Europe. Place us firmly back at the heart of our continent economically, militarily and geopolitically."

If we have lost 4% of GDP because of Brexit, isn’t that significant in this debate?

It wasn’t only a Johnson purge. In Beaconsfield Grieve was ousted by UKiIP who became Tories. This was no accident.

French lower house votes through wealth tax. A 2% minimum tax rate on the wealth of individuals whose net worth exceeds €100m. It is not yet law. UK needs to do similar to reduce inequalities. Instead govts penalise low/middle income families and make poor pay more for crumbling infrastructure.

It is simple. If Trump owns the judiciary then the US is doomed to be an authoritarian state.

3yrs ago, russia carpet-bombed Mariupol, forcing people to seek shelter in the drama theater--their last safe haven. Then russia dropped an aerial bomb there, killing hundreds. Today, the US pushed at the UNGA a resolution that fails to recognize russia as the aggressor.

Data doesn't lie? The entire GOP is built on rejecting data, facts, science and reality. They don't give a shit about 'the data.' This is an ideological purge. You don't use a chainsaw if you actually care about the data.

Ukraine does not owe USA money. Ukraine paid up IN ADVANCE when, under the Budapest Memorandum, Ukraine surrendered its nuclear stockpile, thus weakening its own power, strengthening the power of the nuclear states, Russia, USA & UK, but in exchange for defence guarantees.

It was an immense privilege to be asked to speak at yesterday's act of witness in Kendal as we marked the 3rd anniversary of Putin’s evil invasion of Ukraine. The event was moving and humbling as we stood with our Ukrainian friends and neighbours. Their fight is our fight.
