This is me calling on Hackney Council and Hackney mayor @PhilipGlanville to stop financially supporting Israel's crimes, human rights abuses, violence, ethnic cleansing and apartheid against Palestinians, and the occupation and annexation of Palestinian land.

I get that fuel prices are going up and are a big factor in the #CostOfLivingCrisis but why are broadband prices going up 5% to 9%?
NHS prescription prices?
Water bills by 2% to 10%?
Postage stamps, 1st class by 10p?

So I see the British National Grid has been quietly sold off to an Australian investment fund for 9.6 billion UK Pounds.

Should end well.

Under Corbyn, Labour generated tens of millions from members, small donors & trade unions. Labour went from debt to financial stability.

Having lost 100,000 members & alienated unions, Starmer is taking us back to the bad old days of a party for the rich.

Rishi Sunak is proving he is a man who really does not understand macroeconomics

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

The government must support the UN's calls for an urgent and immediate ceasefire and peace conference in Ukraine.

[Steve Howell @FromSteveHowell]

The latest addition to the Corbyn charge-sheet: "Poisoning the well of the student movement".

Streeting obviously thinks the current generation of students are brain-dead and care about Palestine only because a 70-year-old man tells them to. https://t.co/CKKMdRqt4J

[Beth Winter @BethWinterCynon]

Rishi Sunak was today asked about his Spring Statement plunging 1.3 million people into poverty.

He said "I'm comfortable the choices I've made are the right ones".

That confirms the Conservatives disdain for people on low incomes. I'll keep fighting this cost-of-living crisis.

[Laura Pidcock @LauraPidcock]

The treatment of P&O workers is a disgrace. Our response is vital. We cannot let workers be treated in this way. In #solidarity with @RMTunion & @nautilusint members & against the #CostOfLivingCrisis, join us on the 2nd April. Links to demo locations here: https://t.co/HZ6XiV5THP

Nobody should ever be subjected to the degrading treatment that Child Q was.

But this incident is a reminder that young black state school girls in Hackney are treated very differently to students at leafy boarding schools.

Schools should be a place of safety for all students.

BREAKING 🚨📮: Post Office workers have voted yes to strike action, if bosses do not end their pay freeze.

[That Civil Service tweet twice a day (fan account) @ThatCivilTweet]

Arrogant and offensive. Can you imagine having to work with these truth twisters?

[Dawn Butler ✊🏾💙 @DawnButlerBrent]

For all the officers former and current who abuse me when I call the MET out. What do you have to say now?

There will be black people amongst others saying 'we told you so, why didn't you listen'

[Tom London @TomLondon6]

"Consider the mainstream media coverage of Austerity, Corbyn and Johnson. Democracy requires a free and independent mainstream media. The UK does not have this. Discuss"

[Richard Murphy @RichardJMurphy]

Sunak's claim that he can't afford the cost of more borrowing is fabricated and involves inappropriate accounting for the cost of paying off index-linked bonds maybe many years from now. If inflation falls between now and then, which is likely, the Treasury will get a bonanza

[simon maginn @simonmaginn]

Kuenssberg is the very spirit of the BBC, a glib, dishonest, state mouthpiece. Anyone who knows what BBC did to Corbyn and the left knows exactly what she and it are.
Hard pass.

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

Solidarity to the postal workers who have just voted overwhelmingly for strike action should bosses not move on their pay demands.

97%+ voted in favour.

Yemen: Why is the world’s worst humanitarian crisis ignored? https://t.co/daxiZhVx92 via @AJEnglish

[Matt Thomas @Trickyjabs]

Under Corbyn's leadership, Labour had its highest membership for decades & the highest income in its entire history.

To see anonymous LOTO sources picking party finance as a battle ground when Starmer is on course to lose £50m income shows signs of a desperate, flacid faction.
