If you can even help a little (I know how tough things are right now), please consider helping this elderly friend who has helped me more than I can possibly say. The housing crisis is real. It’s happening. https://t.co/UVYIgpKdLQ #HousingCrisis
#Racism alive and well in the right wing press. Nothing like a trope to get them frothing at the mouth. Anti-Irishness is, apparently, the gateway drug to other forms of acceptable racism.
@mrjamesob would you be able to tweet the article about academic attainment and parental input/socioeconomic class? Catching up with the show from yesterday!
@mrjamesob The medical student you had on is dangerously naïve. The learning curve in the first weeks as a newly qualified doctor is vertical. I wish him well, but he is displaying Dunning-Kruger. I had to step up, as a student the day of the Paddington rail crash. It wasn’t fun.
#Solidarity to all striking workers. Teachers, rail workers, doctors, civil servants, postal workers, and all those in the private sector. With one voice we can roar, enough is enough. You will not use our labour and our lives for your profit and political games. We stand united.
I wonder if there are racists out there applauding Suella Braverman's approach to migrants, who, if they got the chance, would be working out how to deport her too?
Lot of love for Suella Braverman for telling @GaryLineker that the difference between the UK now and the Third Reich is that our laws are lawful. One snag with that: so were the laws of the Third Reich.
@mrjamesob To be fair, Brexit, turnips, cheese, Rees-Mogg, little Francois, 30p Lee, and the spitting image puppet made flesh, Johnson himself. Where does reality end and satire begin?
Few leaders around the world have shown the same commitment to the many, to every single minority, to every decent and worthy campaign against the oligarchy as Jeremy Corbyn has. Labour is all the poorer now that Starmer, seeking to impress the oligarchy, is expelling Jeremy.
Our thoughts are with the families of the men and boys murdered on Bloody Sunday 51 years ago today, as well as those that were injured. we will be joining the families at 4pm at the Bloody Sunday monument for a minute's silence. At dheis De go raibh a-nanamacha dilse
As billionaires meet atop their mountain in Davos, 800 million people across the globe are going to bed hungry.
It’s time for a new economic model that redistributes wealth, ownership and power from those who wield it to those who need it.
This week in 1961, US, British and Belgian forces couped and assassinated Patrice Lumumba, the first democratically elected leader of the Republic of Congo, because he sought to restore national control over the country's mineral wealth. Remember Lumumba.
There is nothing natural about extreme inequality. It is the predictable result of an economic system that distributes income based on who owns the means of production, rather than according to any common-sense principle of labour contribution, human needs or justice.
We estimate that since 1990, 16 million people around the world have died needlessly from malnutrition due to neoliberal policy. These deaths could have been prevented with simple systems to ensure universal access to nutritious food. https://t.co/WGJd5gSJ78
