Launch of “Labour’s Extreme Neoliberalism” with author Jamie Gough and Ozlem Onaran (Professor of Economics, University of Greenwich) 12 March - 7pm - Marchmont Community Centre. www.eventbrite.com/e/labours-ex...

The only universal service capitalism provides is forever chemicals and microplastics in your body.

The tech oligopoly is fusing with authoritarian populist movements to crush working people and avoid paying the price of climate change whilst making as much money as they can, irrespective of the consequences. They use the culture war to foster support, blaming migrants not those in power.

Another SpaceX spaceship bites the dust. Burning Teslas, burning Spaceships, burning Twitter... Burning America. Elon Musk is excellent at destroying things.
