@northernassist what's going on between skipton and leeds? All trains showing as delayed

[Rachel @RachelService_]

@LNRailway What services are running between crewe and liverpool (lime street or south parkway)? My train is just at Stafford so will probably get to crewe at 11.15

[Rachel @RachelService_]

@LNRailway On the train now and will be affected by this. Can I get on the avanti train from Rugby to Chester with my ticket?

Keir Starmer is really dangerous. He’ll win in 2025 and refuse to spend any more on public services so they will descend into chaos. In 2029 the Tories will be back saying privatisation is the only answer. And it will happen. It’s as if that’s what Starmer wants.

'this isn't pyongyang!' i tweet alongside pictures of cops cracking down on protest in london in much the same manner they have been for the last four decades.

this isn't north korea, russia or anywhere else. it's britain and it's how the cops behave bc they have the power to.

Worth noting that for someone on Universal Credit earning £30,000, a £1000 payment would mean £300 in their pocket after tax, NI and the UC taper rate (assuming it’s treated as earnings)

Meant this as a joke but I've lost my voice and don't want the 21 year olds to know

[Rachel @RachelService_]

Me: I'm not old
The people I'm out with: genuinely no idea what's happening when bonkers comes on

The most important thing to happen today in British politics wasn't the Cabinet reshuffle.

It was the Conservatives' refusal to cancel the £20-a-week cut to Universal Credit.

Being working-class under capitalism is to be disadvantaged. That's how capitalism works.

Only those who want to hide their role in inflicting this disadvantaging will identify whiteness as the problem. As per usual, Tories treating people below them as stupid.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

After the 2008 financial crash, the majority of people were made to pay for a crisis they didn’t create.

Not this time – we need to reset the economy to put people, jobs and planet first.

Austerity and neo-liberalism should be put in the dustbin of history where they belong.

IMPORTANT.

HIV has changed a huge amount since #ItsASin — but too many people haven’t been paying attention.

Including that we can now say with absolute confidence that someone living with HIV & on effective treatment #CantPassItOn.

Tell everyone.

The majority of people living on roadside camps have no place to stop because of Government failure to identify anywhere. @pritipatel's plans will therefore mean that people can be imprisoned and fined for the "crime" of having nowhere to live. 2/n

Why do we end up with nonsense like these food boxes? Because people think benefits fraud is 34 times more common than it actually is. On average public think £24 of every £100 is fraudently claimed when it's 70p. https://t.co/IBtQnM90cD

Global South countries, led by South Africa and India, have requested a suspension of the WTO's patent rules to enable them to manufacture or import affordable generic versions of the COVID-19 vaccine. Shockingly, Britain and other rich countries have refused.

"There’s no better way to justify relations founded on violence, to make such relations seem moral, than by reframing them in the language of debt – above all, because it immediately makes it seem that it’s the victim who’s doing something wrong."
