It's staggering how fast democracy in the USA has imploded. My only hope is that it will act as a warning to all the rest of us and we'll be alert to the damage done by the political con artists in society. It really is time to join @greenparty.org.uk and combat the lies.

Human sacrifice is legitimised by UK govts and practiced in every town (see linked article). Thousands sacrificed to the gods of free markets, privatisations, austerity, fiscal rules, mustn't tax the rich. None of it delivers prosperity. Must change politics. leftfootforward.org/2024/10/the-...

What the hell are we even doing? Normalizing & green-lighting another psychotic madman. That’s what we’re doing. It’s f’ing insane.

Vulture auction of Thames Water. Covalis offers £1bn to buy TW, flog assets to generate £4bn. Buyers counting on mega hike in customer bills, asset-stripping. Sewage dumping, cash extraction will continue. Only nationalisation can safeguard water services. morningstaronline.co.uk/article/tham...

Human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want. Would we really want to take that path?

From the appalling comments this film is getting on X it’s clear to me if we want to avoid a dangerous chain of events which could one day see Britain joining Russia & Belarus as the only European countries outside the ECHR we need to constantly call out this insane drumbeat from the right to leave

“Taking Britain out of the Erasmus+ programme was a huge mistake. Labour must rejoin and accept the EU’s offer of a youth mobility scheme” 👏👏👏

The concept Nigel Farage is incapable of grasping is human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want. I’ll fight that to my last breath

Whilst the Parliamentary debate on assisted dying has been of high quality, it also shows what a dysfunctional shitshow much of the rest of the proceedings are. I'm really not bothered about traditions that get in the way of efficient government. It's time they looked at updating their processes.
