Amazon plans to lay off up to 30,000 corporate employees

About 670,000 federal employees are furloughed, while about 730,000 are working without pay. Amazon says it will let go 30,000 this week. SNAP gone. Heath Insurance unaffordable. Trump, Republicans and the Broligarchy are destroying the USA in front of our very eyes.

Irish President-Elect Catherine Connolly received the most votes, ever, in a presidential election & won by a landslide. She’s known for her support of ppl with disabilities, the Irish language, LGBTQ ppl & equal rights. She’s the third woman president. She’s also a respected feminist. #Aras25

"Tony Blair should not be anywhere near Gaza's reconstruction. The only people who should be deciding on the future of Gaza's reconstruction are the Palestinian people." ☆Jeremy Corbyn speaking at Progressive international's conference in Kuala Lumpar yesterday.

It is interesting that Jeremy Corbyn has been an MP for 42 years and led the opposition for 5 years. He's been on Question Time once. Nigel Farage, 44 times. Our Media is corrupt, corrupt to the core.

Jeremy Corbyn predicted Labour's Palestine Action ban decades ago youtu.be/BQ7zdnZSxoQ?...

'Zara Sultana, Coventry South MP, said: ‘The movement will not be intimidated. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmoud wants to ban protests for Palestine. In 2014, the same Labour MP lay on her supermarket floor protesting against trade with Israel.'

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian. Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference. Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say? Let's keep growing: join.greenparty.org.uk

The Press in thrall of Badenoch’s astonishing rabbit out of the hat of abolishing stamp duty. it’s not a vote winner, it’s just yet another recycling of dead Thatcherism. How many people today want social services and libraries cut further so that rich people can get thousands off their house price?

Bill Gates: $106B | Microsoft: $3.9T Jeff Bezos: $232.5B | Amazon: $2.3T Larry Page: $204.2B | Google: $2.84T Mark Zuckerberg: $243.5B | Meta: $1.8T Can someone please explain why on earth we’re paying the power & water bills for their data centers?

BBC News - Hampshire and Dorset councillors defect from the Tories to Reform UK - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Good to see the Lib Dems call out Robert Jenrick for his appalling comments in Birmingham. He really should be in Reform with his far right views

What is this “integration” everyone’s banging on about? Born here (mostly), educated here, pay taxes here. What do people have to do? I live in a multicultural town. My neighbours are welcomed to my house & I’m welcomed to theirs. Genuinely curious about the division the Tories are perceiving.

This is the dark rabbit-hole UK politics is headed down. Some very nasty politicians now feel emboldened to say the things they've always thought but never dared say. If Badenoch doesn't sack him, then she has no self-respect and deserves no respect.

…”political illiteracy exists because Home Secretary Shabana Mahmoud ties an attack on a synagogue – on Jews – to the protests trying to stop British complicity in a genocide thousands of miles away in Gaza”. When in reality no connection exists! open.substack.com/pub/jonathan...

Perhaps, if British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmoud believes pro-Palestinian protests should be cancelled as a mark of respect for the victims of the Manchester attack, the government could also cancel its arms shipments to Israel, as a mark of respect for the victims of genocide .

Why is this NOT considered a terror attack? Why has Keir Starmer and politicians across the UK not condemned this? Because it was AGAINST Muslims? Because the criminal was a white man? This is disgusting on so many levels!!! www.cnn.com/2025/10/05/e...

Appreciation post coming up🙏 Have just been called for a routine NHS test. We are so, so lucky to have our #NHS with its free screening services for all manner of ailments. We need to fight to keep it, because we won't know what's hit us when it's gone @keepournhspublic.bsky.social

Our Co-Chair @drtonyosullivan.bsky.social told @declassifieduk.org: "Israel stands accused of genocide. It's wholly unacceptable for UK to continue to contract with companies actively engaged in supporting the Israeli military against Palestinians in Gaza.” www.declassifieduk.org/the-israeli-...

'For as long as the Government fails to deliver on its NHS promises, Labour’s days are numbered', writes @keepournhspublic.bsky.social co-chair @drtonyosullivan.bsky.social

Our Co-Chair @drtonyosullivan.bsky.social writes for @left-foot-forward.bsky.social : "Govt now increasingly do not deny privatisation but welcome it as the way forward in which ‘the NHS’ would be redefined as a label for the ‘ecosystem’ of healthcare." 👇👇 leftfootforward.org/2025/09/priv...

The NHS isn't an 'ecosystem' to be divvied up between private interests. It's OUR service & must remain THE NHS providing healthcare for all. We won't let Alan Milburn, Streeting & this govt downgrade our NHS to just 1 provider amongst private companies. Watch 👇👇👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWUj...

In her conference speech Rachel Reeves promised £29 billion for the day-to-day funding of the NHS. Is this private finance? NHS Trusts already have £40bn of debt. More will be a disaster. Take action - tell Rachel Reeves, don't paralyse our NHS with more private finance.

One reason I donate to #Wikipedia. More, though, is that without doubt, it's going to hit by a tsunami of suppression very soon, as it's anathema to all that the Trumpist regime and its techbro billionaire fanboys stand for. Without global support, it will be destroyed. 1/4
