It’s an investment. Plants improve your mood, a good mood boosts your health, and good health means you spend less on medicine, leaving more money for, you guessed it, more plants. It’s financial planning.

The Birmingham bin strike is the fault of Labour's austerity 2.0 While politicians blame workers for the Birmingham bin strike, it's Tory austerity compounded by Labour plunging the council into even more debt that's the issue www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Labour just told the WASPI women 'go to the DWP if you're poor' No, really. Labour's answer to the WASPI scandal is for older women to join the queue at a Jobcentre and get a fucking job. www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Labour & Tory PFI schemes will cost Scotland £544 million in 2025/26. That’s money ripped from public services to line private pockets - pushing up Council Tax across the country. We scrapped PFI. Labour want to bring it back. Don’t let them.

For those who don’t know, Carol Mochan msp is a colleague of Anas Sarwar’s in the Scottish branch office of UK Labour. Yes, that Anas Sarwar who famously promised Labour would save all those jobs at Grangemouth, Scotland’s only refinery. Such hypocrisy must not be forgotten. youtu.be/KQ8V6Uot5ck

Honestly, UK, do it or fuck off. The world’s in flames, and you’re pissing about over the name of the most basic and uncontroversial form of cooperation imaginable. If you can’t even manage this, go away and come back when you’ve grown the fuck up. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Scunthorpe being in England means saving 'British' steel is a whole-UK thing - unlike Welsh steel or Scottish oil refining - so we all pay for it (and I'm happy to, as long as it's nationalised) but that means there won't be Barnett Consequentials. The 'Union' is a fiscal trick. #DissolveTheUnion

Here's your a Scottish Labour MPs. They waste their time asking questions about another Gov't to UK Ministers who have no responsibility on the issues involved. What a service they provide their constituents who simply loathe this slavish behaviour. www.thenational.scot/news/2508295...

Grangemouth, Scunthorpe, Ardrossan harbour and English Water all show the massive folly that was the privatisation of essential infrastructure. All need to be nationalised now, along with the energy companies and Royal Mail.

I'm a member of Unite rather than Unison, but to be honest I'm fed up with all the unions for continuing to support this Labour government that insists on following neoliberal Tory policies. Time for unions to defund Labour and support the Greens instead? 🤔

The only people with any confidence in Donald Trump‘s handling of the economy are his hard-core base. When he starts falling into the 30s, which I expect soon, it will be more telling of the feeling that his supporters will not admit publicly.

Before the 2024 GE Labour met with corporate lobbyists every day for a whole year. The scale of the free zones' ambitions is contingent on the total collapse of the public sector, this will see infrastructure absorbed region by region by the private sector under 'localised freedoms'. >
