*VT compilation of Tory lies*
Victoria Derbyshire: “There was never a proposal to use 7 bins, we can’t find any council that wants to decide when you can go to the shop & Labour have never proposed taxing meat”

The Silent Pandemics
1. We don't eat real food.
2. We don't exercise.
3. We sit at desks and then come home to sit on couches.
4. We numb our emotions with food, drugs & alcohol, which makes the emotions come back even worse.
5. We decided that the sun is dangerous for our health.
6. We don't allow ourselves to be bored anymore.
7. We created a pill for every ill.
8. We've decided that being entertained is more important than living.
9. We have a constant connection to our devices but no connection to ourselves & our communities.
10. We eat too many calories but not enough nutrition.
11. Testosterone levels are declining and some people think that’s a good thing.
12. Some scientists promote sugary cereals to be more nutritious than eggs and beef.
13. We believe our feelings are facts.
14. We want to cancel others we disagree with and people who hang around others we disagree with.
15. Pharma companies are second to tech companies in marketing spend to consumers.
16. We trade our sleep for more social media time, which messes up our sleep even more.
17. We are mentally unhealthy because we're physically unhealthy.
18. There's a health food section in the grocery store when it should be where the whole foods are.
19. We get exposed to the extremes on social media and think they are the reality we live in.
20. People watch mainstream news to keep us informed when they’re incentivized to keep us angry & scared.
21. We put focus too much on money & status and not enough on health, family & community.
I don't have all the answers but I believe that we can live better lives by doing the opposite of this list.
Take action. Be proactive.

Pale Blue Dot is a photo of Earth that was taken by the Voyager 1 space probe in 1990 from a distance of about 6 billion kilometers (3.7 billion miles) as it was leaving our solar system. This is what Carl Sagan said about the photo:
"Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor, and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there — on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”
🚨We sent an email last night to our mailing list, naming the MPs with the strongest financial links to the private healthcare sector since the last General Election in 2019. Buckle up, because this is shocking (to us)🚨
