@MarieAnnUK The Tory philosophy doesn't work, from privatisation to tax; cutting 'red tape'; welfare; expenditure; austerity/public services to foreign investment and everything else in running our national economy. It all damages our nation and is a function of the pure greed of a few.

@BladeoftheS I'll help them pack

@premnsikka This is in your face corruption

@Dorsetecho He probably doesn't realise it but he would have had an instant death. I've seen films of the fireball from such events.

@Malcolm_Sillick @RhonddaBryant Most of that money is in Tory bank accounts. We're you asleep for 14 years?

@Keir_Starmer Wow. Putin really wants Starmer out doesn't he? Just look at this tirade. All orchestrated and manipulated by Russia. Funny how Putin was so friendly with Boris.

[Graham Holmes @HolmesGray]

@Propheticz @Keir_Starmer Boris was his bitch

[Graham Holmes @HolmesGray]

@HelenMagi @Keir_Starmer Heaven forbid you have to watch someone you love dearly die in agony, like me, you might suddenly be in favour of assisted suicide. To keep your loved one alive in that suffering is torture not only for them but the rest of the family. That is the current situation.

[Graham Holmes @HolmesGray]

@premnsikka That's blatant obfuscating! An 'in your face' attempt to obscure and mislead. Democracy needs reform. Ministers who do this need to be removed from office. It's so dishonest of them.

US tells European companies to comply with Trump’s anti-diversity order. His diktats must be applied if they are a supplier or service provider to the US govt,

Wishes of national govts and electorate don't count.

Will Europe fight-back or comply?

I see that news of @labourlewis Water Bill and the debate in Parliament yesterday has made it all the way to Ireland.

Well done sir, tip of the hat.

UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting accepted £53,000 from private health recruiter pre-NHS job cuts

Despite claiming that recruiters were ripping-off the NHS.

Donors invest, return is govt contracts.

Must criminalise receipt/payment of political donations

@premnsikka Tax the rich. If you give £1m to a billionaire they will just salt it away offshore. If you give it to the poorvthey will spend it and boost the economy.

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

1% of the UK population has wealth of £2.8 trillion, compared to £2.4trn by 70% of the population combined.

FOUR Britons have more wealth than 20m people combined.

Rich have hijacked govts.

Must tax the rich to improve life chances of the rest.

@BBCDorset Frying tonight?

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

Trump, Vance & others either have forgotten or never knew that Zelensky signed a ceasefire agreement with Putin in 2019. Three years later, Putin launched his full-scale invasion. So, signing another ceasefire with no security guarantees feels like suicide for Ukrainians.

[Graham Holmes @HolmesGray]

@WildlifeTrusts Snowdrops!

[Graham Holmes @HolmesGray]

@AmbJohnBolton @mikegalsworthy It's a party system in US politics. Trump and Vance are Republicans. I name the Republicans as the owners of this policy or instead they must publicly disown it and distance themselves from it. If not, they must face the consequences at the ballot box.

[Graham Holmes @HolmesGray]

@premnsikka The tax payer mustn't be made to prop up privatised companies that are otherwise bankrupt. The government must then renationalise (at no cost to the tax payer) and pursue shareholders to pay for outstanding debts and losses.

[Graham Holmes @HolmesGray]

@jban1961 @premnsikka The government wants to boost growth. Giving £1m to the rich does nothing - they hide it in offshore accts. The poor have to spend it, thus boosting growth. The rich must realise if the poor have no £££, they cannot buy the things that make the wealthy richer!
