Ten years is too long @andyburnham
Look at Mamdani
Make a difference *now*
Tax the super rich
Nationalise utilities *now*
And give Britain a pay rise
The billionaires & profiteers have had it their way for too long
It *must* be our turn
Dispatches can reveal how King Charles and Prince William are making millions from the taxpayer.
In a joint investigation with @thetimes we have uncovered lucrative deals with the armed forces, schools and even the NHS.
One of the most frustrating elements of this case for observers is that Prince Harry explicitly offered to personally reimburse the state for the cost of Metropolitan Police protection so that UK taxpayers wouldn't carry the financial burden.
It's absolutely disgusting, you pay for their helicopters so they can ponce around.
But the helicopters to save your lives, "Oh sorry there's no money for them."
You will have to donate.
I am by no means a Royalist, but for the life of me i just don't understand how Charles doesn't want to help protect his son and daughter in law and children, yet protect his pedophile brother.

The Royal Family are the epitome of inequality in Britain.
Taxpayers are funding two new helicopters for one family, while air ambulance charities have to ask the public to donate just to keep lifesaving helicopters in the sky.
One serves a privileged few. The other serves millions.
There’s something fundamentally wrong with those priorities. #AbolishTheMonarchy
Baroness Michelle Mone and husband made approximately £200 million personal profit from supplying defective medical gear to the NHS.
They were handed the contract with no competition or process despite having zero experience in the sector.
Nobody is in jail. They keep the cash.
A UK family where both parents work full-time, pay full council tax, and earn enough to be 'doing alright' on paper, can't afford to take their kids to the Tower of London on a Saturday in 2026.
Two adult tickets and two child tickets at standard price comes to roughly £100. Add £40-£80 in train fares and £50-£70 for lunch — that's around £200 for a single Saturday at one tourist attraction in their own capital city.
A family on full Universal Credit, living in subsidised housing, paying no council tax, can take the same four people to the same Tower for £1 a ticket — £4 total — under the 'inclusive access' schemes most major UK attractions now run.
The working family pays the full £200 day out AND covers — through their taxes — the £196 discount the benefits family gets on the same trip.
Whatever the original intention of those schemes, this is the structure most UK working families are now living inside. Pay the full bill, then watch the people next door enjoy the day out you can't take your own kids to.
Palestinians were given plastic bags with the weight of their children in them when kids were blown up by Israel they couldn’t tell who was who.
A mother said, “I dont even know if this is my son.”
. I am so sorry maryam bialik after you saw someone with anti zionist shirt
She’s crying because someone wore a T-shirt she didn’t like meanwhile people are losing entire bloodlines
Guys why am I seeing everyone watching this movie, this lady is a RAGING, VIOLENT ZIONIST. Her views are absolutely abhorrent. She’s literally up there with Amy Schumer and Amy from Big Bang Theory.
This is Tony Blair’s house.
The architect of ‘rubbing our noses in diversity’, and consequential rape/murder of our so many women and children.
He is presently working on our digital ID with Larry Ellison.
Nice house, for a politician, isn’t it.
Ceire Ní Ghribín, the nurse who went viral after saying, "I was a nurse in Gaza. I volunteered in Gaza. I’ve seen what happens. There is a genocide. Free Palestine" has posted proof as people had been calling her a liar.
The heroine is a registered nurse and a midwife.
Zoey Deutch has a new movie out so here is a reminder that she is a major zionist and Islamophobe that thinks ethnic cleansing by Israel isn’t happening and that Arabs and Muslims are to blame for the genocide. Her rhetoric against Palestinians is disgusting and she should be boycotted.
Caller on @NickFerrariLBC just said it straight: ‘It’s a disgrace’ the King still takes our money while funding gets pulled from schools.
Now they’re about to DOUBLE royal funding so Prince William can send his kids to a £69k-a-year private school…
…while your local school faces a £19k cut that will strip sports lessons from hundreds of children.
Whose future are we really investing in?
This is beyond a joke. #LBC #RoyalFundingScandal #AbolishTheMonarchy
Even if you don’t live in NYC, please retweet this and get the word out so that the ppl in YOUR city also learn that they too can have politicians who get things done if they mobilize and vote socialist in other elections! 🗣️
