This needs to be read and talked about more widely.
What is a person’s intrinsic worth?
Not everything can be monetised. And trusting these people, giving them more power, is costing us dear.
An excellent short guide to some of the key figures behind Brexit – a kleptofascist mix of the libertarian super-rich who think a person's intrinsic worth is determined by their wealth, fascists, charlatans and con-tricksters. Some additions - Murdoch, the Barclays and Desmond.
Microphone snatched from people at a public meeting in Hickling as homes are flooded and sewage systems overwhelmed.
Tory MP @duncancbaker doesn't want you to know the truth about his support for new oil and gas, which is driving extreme weather events and flooding.
The journalist @nickwallis who has been with the Post Office Scandal for years (+ excellent @ComputerWeekly)
"Fujitsu will take more than £2 BILLION out of the Horizon IT system over the lifetime of this contract...and Fujitsu have since built an empire, in this country, on the broken backs of Sub-Postmasters"
And that, dear voters, is how "the establishment" works..
£4.9 billion further contracts given by Rishi Sunak to Fujitsu since 2019
Fujitsu and Infosys have had a partnership since 2003.
Multiple conflicts of interest imho
So deeply depressing - & frankly terrifying - that as many as 68 Tory MPs just voted to make shameful #Rwanda Bill even more shameful by supporting amendment which would explicitly disapply *any* international law that might stop removals. This is seriously dangerous territory
🚨 Gaza: “A Genocide in the Making?” South Africa sues Israel at the ICJ over alleged genocide. Over 23,000 Palestinians dead. The world must act NOW! Sign the petition to urge global leaders to support an end to the bloodshed. #Gaza https://t.co/tc5mX2ETay
@JohnKerry Please, vote to leave all fossil fuels in the ground. For the sake of our air, our seas, our health and the entire planet. All the money and the economics are meaningless if there is no planet left to live on.
This brave Cambridge rebel was arrested today for marching in the road for 2 minutes with @JustStop_Oil and could face imprisonment.
UN scientists tell us there can be no new oil & gas.
Yet the UK government is granting oil licenses and shutting down dissent. Is this democracy?
The media are at it at again today - blaming appointment cancellations and treatment delays on NHS staff.
The collapse of the NHS is because of politicians, not doctors🚨
If you agree, RT 💙
Brexit has left us measurably and obviously worse off, less democratic, less trusted, more divided with filthier rivers, more red tape and fewer rights and protections. The brexity rage directed at us for challenging this relentless crappiness just confirms this pitiful truth.
Everyone should read this. Ps if @RSPBEngland put out a thread like this against a Labour government it would lead the news and lead all the right wing rags who will instead try to turn it into a story about wokery. Liars supported by liars. Viva RSPB!!
Al Nasir, Cambridge researcher, claims he's been pressured to remove a reference in his work to Antoinette Sandbach, former MP for Eddisbury,Cheshire, who is a descendant of Samuel Sandbach & beneficiary of his estate.
Tories using law to silence people?🤷🏼♀️ https://t.co/0u7H81g1N4
@boulter_jean@Feargal_Sharkey He’s already the enemy. A lot of people just don’t seem to see beyond the lies or how much we are all being completely shafted.
"Post-Covid ‘super deduction’ scheme introduced by Rishi Sunak when chancellor allowed water industry to claim £97 million in tax rebates.'
Yep you got that right. Water companies paid no tax but claimed £97 million in rebates.

Why is this not leading the news? Our Water being pumped full of the brown stuff. And Sunak helping the companies which do it to get rebates on tax they didn’t pay. Wake up to the stench people!
GCSE results prove yet again the system is rigged for the rich...
Time to stop their endless tax breaks....widening the gap ever further
Tories don't care
They just don't
They only want the power to siphon off our money
That's their manifesto

@carolvorders Gove’s curriculum changes, introduced when this year group started primary school have done absolutely nothing to improve education. Took the joy out of it and took the achievement out too.

“In short: if you fly, you are subsidised; if you take the train, you are punished by higher prices – as well as the fact that the journey is often longer,”

"Well, I think the question was, is Britain broken? And I think, quite plainly, it feels like we are almost in every government-administered area of our lives, things are not working." #BBCQT
@PhilipPullman Caveat: I can help if you’re planning ahead. But if you need a train ticket at short notice to visit a sick relative or to help a friend with last-minute childcare, prices are prohibitive. It’s as if this country prefers to keep the roads filled with petrol-powered vehicles. 🫣
