Abramovich tax dodge must be probed, HMRC urged. UK rarely tackles tax abuse by billionaires. Pandora Papers, Paradise Papers, Bahamas Leaks, HSBC Leaks, LuxLeaks, Panama Papers, Offshore Leaks have led to little action. Govts chase little people. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Charles Spencer detailed his abuse at his prep school Maidwell Hall in his recent book and that led to a police inquiry which has now caused the school - which was long operating at a loss - to close. The Conservative press, naturally, blame it all on Starmer. And VAT.

Sometimes I feel hopeless about what is happening to the NHS and what people are doing about it. I think we either need to go all in, find the millions of people who care and get a lot louder, or we give up. I want to go all in, but I can’t go all in alone. Share if you think we need to fight.

Who is going to do all of the work for these private companies bringing down NHS waiting lists? Staff who have been poached from the NHS of course. The private health sector in the UK trains almost no staff, takes on NHS work and does so to create a profit for shareholders. 🚨🚨🚨
