I know I bang on about electoral reform every time there’s an election, but FPTP really is a broken system that needs replacing! In Redditch 43.8% of people’s votes have been silenced as one party took all the seats with only 56.2% of the votes! https://t.co/ZN1K4HDUpJ #PRVoting
This is why I don’t start new shows from Netflix unless they have an ending. If Kaos had aired weekly it wouldn’t have even aired the finale yet. It really feels like Netflix cancels everything.
Finished watching episode 1 and 2 of #AgathaAllAlong and did not disappoint. It feels so good being back on Westview. I just love the WandaVision universe so much.
Slightly confused by something, are we saying all white people are not bad based on actions of a few, but all brown people are bad based on the actions of a few?
Sally Nugent, "Did you know you would be kicked out if you rebelled?"
Zarah Sultana, "No, I wasn't informed that was going to happen if I rebelled"
SN, "How does that feel now then?"
ZS, "I'm disappointed the party has taken the decision.. They should be able to tolerate a difference of opinion.. Actually a lot of the parliamentary Labour party want to scrap the two child benefit cap"
SN, "You have just won a general election on a manifesto that did not contain scrapping the two child benefit cap"
ZS, "The manifesto I stood on committed to reviewing universal credit and causes of poverty, and having an ambitious strategy to tackle poverty, which includes the two child benefit cap"
"All eleven of the trade unions, support scrapping the two child benefit cap.. This is also supported by the TUC, which represents 6 million workers.. As well as Keir Starmer himself for his 2020 leadership bid.. Also charities like Save the Children.. The Archbishop of Canterbury."
"The cap is seen as a key driver of child poverty in this country.. If the Labour party have a moral mission it should be to eradicate child poverty"
SN, "Do you feel you have achieved anything?"
ZS, "10,000 children live in avoidable poverty in my constituency.. 1/3 in are facing this reality.. Going to sleep hungry at night, learning on an empty stomach, going back to cold homes.. And long term impacts on health, well being and life expectancy"
SN, "Chancellor Rachel Reeves says no unfunded commitments will be made, so you accept there just isn't the money?"
ZS, "Fiscal responsibility at this moment in time means that 330,000 children are living in poverty.. We are the sixth largest economy in the world.. We have enough wealth"
"UK billionaire wealth tripled to just under £700 billion under the Tories.. A 2% wealth tax on assets over £10 million would raise £24 billion.. Equalising Capital Gains with Income Rate thresholds you'd raise £16 billion.. When people say there isn't the money to fund this, they aren't looking in the right place"
