Michael Sheen talks about the landscape of debt in his hometown of Port Talbot, where the last steelworks blast furnaces have closed.
He’s on a mission to write off £1 million of ordinary people’s debt.

Jess Phillips, alongside Carolyn and Tonia (pictured), was one of the few MPs to back the campaign to free my mother in our landmark #coercivecontrol case in 2019. I’ll always remember the female MPs like Jess who stood by my family against the injustice we faced.
Survivors of the Telford abuse scandal have criticised Elon Musk’s attack on Jess Phillips, stating she has “devoted her life to fighting for women and girls.”
In a letter shared with the Guardian the seven women, including three survivors of the Telford sexual abuse scandal, came to the Labour MP’s defence and said that there was “no one in public life who has done more to support victims and survivors and to advocate for their interests”.
The other four signatories – Julie Devey, Carole Gould, Emma Ambler and Nour Norris – have lost a female relative to gender-based violence or have suffered domestic abuse.
In their response to Musk, coordinated by the campaign group @KilledWomennw, the women said that those who “weaponise our pain for their own ends or political gain” should “hang their heads in shame”.
“We write as victims of extreme male violence,” the letter said. “What connects us all beyond our shared trauma is the support and kindness we have received from Jess Phillips over many years, personally and as activists fighting for change.
“We know there are those who would weaponise our pain for their own ends or political gain; who speak out with new-found interest, not to tackle the horrendous crimes that stole so much from us, but to further their own agenda. They should hang their heads in shame.
“As campaigners and activists, we fight every day to stop what happened to us or our loved ones happening to anyone else. We stand by Jess, knowing she has devoted her life to fighting for women and girls.”

The usual geniuses keep using this photo, to make their usual dumb/hateful anti-immigration arguments.
Quite ironic, to say the least.
A few facts about this photo, for anyone interested in who those women were - and what their stories might tell you about Ireland. /1
