This country is awash with money. The very rich are rich beyond imagination. So when Starmer wants to stay within his arbitrary fiscal rules, who does he decide to take money from? The very rich? No, from people with disabilities who depend on benefits for the bare minimum of a decent life.

So, they are undertaking the largest investment in water and wastewater services in 100 years? Who has owned these services for the better part of 3 decades? Who have I been paying money to for the better part of 3 decades to ensure I am provided with safe, clean drinking water….?

Want to know what evil is? It's having $400 billion—and being projected to earn $600 billion more over the next 4 years—and knowing that you could awaken every morning for a month and point to a country and say I will end all hunger THERE without denting your lifestyle at all and instead you do this

It's #TimeToTalk day. It's so important to talk about our mental health & normalise the fact that we can all face difficult times. A listening ear can make all the difference. We also need to know that qualified support is there if we need it. We offer free & confidential help to frontline workers.

We need to galvanise, come together as communities. We are stronger together, we need to break the bonds of isolationist politics of the thatcher era. I don’t know how to start, time for some Bluesky thinking here…. skywriter.blue/pages/george...

1. Show up. Go to the places Musk is taking over, bring cameras, demand to find out what's going on and where it breaks the law. 2. Refuse to allow standard business to continue unimpeded. Deny unanimous consent, delay votes, etc. 3. Be public about how illegal all of this is 4. Lay out a plan

I'm not saying this is a coup. But if you were going to do a coup, how would things look different from recent events -- seizing the federal payments system, federal purging law enforcement, threatening to sic armed US Marshals on civil servants guarding classified data
