Ok so the right are fearful of pensioners with the current cold weather, as they no longer have the winter fuel allowance. And I agree it’s not going to be easy for some. But where was the outrage when pensioners were using buses and warm banks under Tories? Energy prices were triple what they are now and the right didn’t give two SHITS. Please stop with the faux outrage.

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.

The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.

Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

Ridiculous BBC line:
"Public sector pay deals help drive up UK borrowing"

No link with corporate welfare, contracts for cronies, Govt paying higher energy bills, HMRC not collecting £500bn since 2010, Tory legacy.

Just blame workers wanting decent pay.

It’s WILD how farmers can threaten to withhold food and that’s absolutely fine. But when NHS workers are striking for fair pay and a safer NHS, the right completely lose their minds. We have nurses using food banks; the right don’t care. We have farmers with land worth £Ms… we must protest for them. Like c’mon wtf?

If you want a simple, clear and accurate explanation of the Inheritance Tax and farming issues spend a few minutes listening to this.

It utterly destroys all the hysteria being whipped up atm.

[Julie Street 🇺🇦 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 @Juliest101]

Victoria Atkins overplaying her hand on Radio 4 Today saying one farmer is considering committing suicide to avoid inheritance tax
The same woman from the same party who didn't give a f*ck when 100s of people committed suicide because of the Tory's despicable benefits system.

Dreadful news that homes may end up being owned by people who live in them.

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

Jeez. Boris Johnson is now on French radio saying “We forget all this now because it was two or three years ago but when we had the pandemic, thanks to Brexit we had the chance to do the vaccinations in England much earlier”

I’ve debunked this absolute boll**** many times👇

Part of Laurence Fox's racist rant to Sangita Myska which he has since deleted, and which has been sent to the Police.

Don't RT his shame.

Or do.

Mhairi Black, "I'm not understanding why there is so much heat around this" @MhairiBlack

"Is this is a case of farmers working their knuckles down to the bone, living on the breadline, that happen to be sitting on assets"

"Or is this like people like Jeremy Clarkson"

"Because if you're asking the general public who can't afford to pay their bills, who can't get a doctors appointment, who can't get a house, to feel sorry for millionaires like Clarkson, I just don't think how it's feasible"

Well it is a HELL YES isn't it.

RT if it is.

40 Just Stop Oil political prisoners sit in prison at the moment for blocking roads or throwing paint/soup in a protest about the climate.

Farmers are protesting having to pay a reduced inheritance tax and driving into police officers with tractors.

That’s two-tier policing.
