Wow. Starmer's setting himself up for a unique hat trick of rebuffs when he meets with Trump next week, on Ukraine, Gaza and the Chagos Islands. There is a world in which Trump comes to his senses and agreed with what Starmer wants - but not in our Universe. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

UK energy industry made £483bn profit since 2020. OFGEM's marginal pricing rules guarantee profits to the most inefficient/costly producer. 1 in 5 of all deaths are people in fuel poverty – including 110,000 pensioners. No curbs on profiteering. Real wages cut. WFP cut. Cost of living soaring.

The government is looking at another benefit crackdown when it should, instead, be looking at corporate fraud and its own failure to pay all the benefits owing to people. Why has it got its focus so wrong? Does it just hate people on benefits? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/02...

More evidence of harms inflicted by private equity on US healthcare. Usual pattern: profiteering, hiking debt, low investment, poor patient care and safety. Yet UK NHS being handed to private equity without any evidence, 30%-40% public money vanishes in profits. Money buys less.

Just in case no one knows the UK doesn't have a record number of people on benefits, in fact we have higher employment than France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Finland and many more. It's all just a lie for the billionaires to blame poor people for their mess.

Skys international correspondent reports that Hamas have violated the ceasefire agreement by not returning the body of Shiri Bibas. Have we seen such unequivocal reporting of Israels numerous violations over the past 4 and a half weeks in the mainstream media? No we have not.

Water companies are pumping sewage in our sea and taking record profits. Labour refuses to nationalise them. In the exact same way he won't tax the wealth of the 1%, blames migrants & cut winter fuel for pensioners. Is it any surprise they're tanking?
