We need to be very clear.

There was NO vote yesterday in Parliament to add an Inquiry into child sexual exploitation to the Children's Wellbeing Bill.

The only vote was on whether to throw the whole Bill out (See below)

Any politician or media saying otherwise is lying to you.

Supermarkets hit the poorest.

2021-2023: Prices of budget food items hiked more than the rest.

Milk, pasta and butter, rose by 36%; expensive versions of the same items rose by 16%.

Poor faced higher rate of inflation than the rest.

CEOs get bonuses.

Wilko owner won't plug £70m pension deficit.

Deficit as company didn't meet its obligations.

Scheme to be rescued by PPF. Max limit 90%. Workers to lose some rights.

Change law - make pension schemes a priority creditor.

UK accounts for 80% of the homelessness in developed countries. 50.5 people per 10,000 are homeless.

Low wages, high cost of living, job insecurity, corporate profiteering, high rents, absence of social housing are a political choice.

Political ideologies making people homeless
