This week the Guardian's owner, the Scott Trust, gifted the 233-year-old Observer to Tortoise Media.

This isn't just a dark day for journalism, it's a sign.

Meet the team.

This is Putin giving Tortoise's energy advisory board member an 'Order of Friendship' medal in 2017.

Austerity is a political choice.

Children & pensioners are being pushed into poverty while billionaire wealth skyrockets.

Ahead of the Budget, we’ve written to the Chancellor demanding wealth taxes to fund public services & put the needs of the many over the greed of a few👇🏽

Trump will be remembered in history for giving the internet such an amazing gift…

It will be an even bigger gift to Harris and America in general though.

Tony Benn’s five key questions:

“What power have you got?
Where did you get it from?
In whose interests do you exercise it?
To whom are you accountable?
How do we get rid of you?

And if you can’t get rid of the people who govern you, you don’t live in a democratic system.”

This week’s riots aren’t happening in a vacuum. We’re living and breathing on platforms that billionaires have optimised for outrage. This is the world that social media made.

@HelenJMacdonald Lovely images - have you film footage too ?

[Brendan Cox @MrBrendanCox]

The scenes in Rotherham aren’t a protest, they aren’t even a far right riot, they are an ongoing attempt to murder the men, women & children inside by burning them alive.

The stench of these days will hang around those who incited and justified it for the rest of their lives.
