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.

UK banks paid “advance commissions” to car dealers, encouraged them to push costlier loans to consumers. Now banks face a possible compensation bill of £44bn, which govt is trying to obstruct. Anything that banks have not mis-sold, as execs chase bonuses but bear no responsibility.

It’s not just the Nazi salute that’s disturbing here. It’s the smirk and nod that follows, signalling to his audience that yeah, I just did a Nazi salute. They clearly believe they are untouchable.

Studying history made me understand humankind’s capacity for evil, but I was less prepared for our capacity for stupidity. Ultimately, the fascists surprise me less than the people applauding them because they think they’re the good guys or not noticing them because they live up their own arses.

Trump is on the brink of betraying Ukraine and the UK. Britain must lead in Europe by increasing defence spending immediately and all political parties should get round the table to make that happen. I fear what happens if we don't take this step.

Yes, Donald. The USA has fallen to tyranny. You’ve collapsed the Constitution. Torched American soft power. Allowed a drug-addled menace to trash any and all govt departments. Risked the world’s health and safety. Betrayed your citizens and your allies. Hand claps don’t come any slower than this.

US National Security Adviser says Ukraine President "need to tone it down and take a hard look and sign that deal," What he means is - hand some of your country to Russia, 50% of your mineral wealth to Trump, starve your people. Gangster politics is no basis for lasting peace.

Just got called a ‘leftist clown’ on Instagram for saying we should end discriminatory practices in recovery services. So, just to recap - plans to carve up countries to make empires, stealing citizens’ private data & doing Nazi salutes are NOT far right but wanting a bit of fairness is far left 🤪
