That's what I'm fighting for. Sign up below to join my campaign to make the super-rich pay up.

Andrew gets very animated when renewables aren’t producing much of the UK’s electricity…
… but rarely chooses to communicate the bigger picture
Over past year, renewables have generated 38.2% of the UK’s electricity
Which is more than the 27.6% generated from fossil fuels
We’ve long been highlighting the abuse of British elections laws by dark money sources and foreign actors.
A cap on political donations is an essential move to protect our fragile democracy.

@TimVasbyBurnie@AmnestyUK Shouldn't a man of faith be showing love for all of God's children? Regardless of their shape, identity, biology etc? And demonstrate forgiveness?
We can’t have another referendum on Brexit because that was the will of the (lied to) people 8 years ago…
But we’re supposed to have another general election despite having had one 4 months ago
You lot are f*cking hilarious.
Number 1 for a decade. 👏🏾
London has been named the greatest city in the world for the 10th year in a row - an achievement that reflects our city’s resilience and unmatched global appeal.
Here’s to setting the standard for years to come 🎉

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"
So much misinformation around today on who will be affected by changes to inheritance tax - and lobbyists pretending the data isn't clear to obfuscate. We have detailed data on estates so the truth is in fact very clear if you care to look 🧵
I know that, like me, many of you will be feeling fearful this morning. So on this dark day, we stand in solidarity with all those who dreaded this moment and must now live with its consequences, including those in Gaza and in Ukraine. The struggle for truth, peace, and justice goes on.
I recommit myself and my party to that struggle this morning.
The politics of hatred will not win. Together, we will go forward with a renewed sense of connection with all those around the world who feel shaken by this election result but determined to continue to defend what matters: to build a safe, just, and inclusive green future.
Together we curse the darkness, yes, but we also light candles, to mark our unity and the shared power of radical hope that comes from resistance: resistance to Trump, resistance to fascism, and resistance to all those who seeks to divide us.

Dear @RachelReevesMP
In next week's Budget, to fix inequality and invest in a better Britain, please tax us, the super rich.
We want to let you know that we are proud to pay and here to stay.

It took just 12 days for the Charity Commission to dismiss a complaint against the Institute for Economic Affairs.
Now it’s thinking again.

@LordWalney It's striking you don't deny that you are:
i) a paid lobbyist for the arms and oil industries;
ii) making supposedly 'independent' recommendations about people protesting against those industries.
You don't see an issue?
Or how it damages @YvetteCooperMP@Keir_Starmer?
