Why money isn’t our limit — but political courage is youtu.be/8LyKv8veLCc?...

I have this morning published my guide to AI (artificial intelligence) and how it might be used by someone who wishes to campaign for a better world in which we all might live. It's a free download. Give it a go. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/11...

Rachel Reeves has already made a complete mess of her Budget, so I thought I should offer an alternative. This is the first part. There are several more to come. When the country's economy is failing, it's time to be radical. Nothing less will do. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/11...

Watch @whitneyweb.bsky.social discuss Palantir, Epstein 2.0, Surveillance Capitalism, Larry Ellison, Blackrock, AI slop, and why we should read books m.youtube.com/watch?v=B1pT...

MMT101.ORG @MMT101DotORG · 2s 1. Tax revenues don't pay for services. All government spending is new money. There can be no tax revenue unless the government has first spent money into the economy. The UK Government is the monopoly issuer of net new UK pounds.

Neo-Liberalism, Trickle-down economics, Thatcherism or whatever you call it really has more in common with fundamentalist religion than anything else.

Your regular reminder that the government doesn't need to borrow, it can create as much money as it needs. #LearnMMT

Clive Lewis just made the Economist look like the Daily Star by exposing its bogus ‘economics’" #TaxTheRich www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

She’s right!

How can Rachel Reeves deliver a Budget when the government is collapsing? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/11... You cannot deliver a credible Budget from a government that has already lost its coherence, as this one would appear to have done

🤔We asked Dr John Puntis, Co-Chair of Keep Our NHS Public, if using the private sector helped the NHS with its capacity issues. @keepournhspublic.bsky.social.bsky.social 🚨Spoilers: it doesn't. #publicownership #NHS #SOSNHS

unconvincing defence from Bailey - the real question is why is the Bank of England increasing the costs for government by actively selling gilts when NO other large central bank does it. www.ft.com/content/620c...

1/ The government has plenty of money. Here's my explainer. A short read. Some extracts below 🧵

Politicians who say there is no money are either lying or ignorant.

Have you seen this 👇? It’s really worrying. I’ll pop a video up later about it in case you don’t have time to read the longer piece 🚨

"We would never tolerate a government that chose to defund 70% of neonatal services, gambling that charities would fill the gap. Yet this is exactly the situation for end-of-life care." Please read my piece on the travesty of NHS palliative care underfunding 🙏 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

1. Those in poverty are denied the opportunity to reach their potential; to have healthy, fulfilled, productive lives. The economy misses their creativity, their contribution. Governments, with unlimited finance - let those lives be wasted. Spend to realise that potential.

Once again Zack is right, and he knows how money actually works in Government and how Starmer is evidently clueless. Finding the money is the easy part. www.newstatesman.com/politics/eco... findingmoneyfilm.com

Morgan McSweeney despises the left, this why Starmer’s Labour Party was ‘changed’, and why they are in hoc to corporate donations and corporate infiltration of government. 1/2

Trevor Philips, "Prime Minister Keir Starmer is coming back from #COP30 having refused to put money into the tropical forest fund on the grounds that we can't afford it. He's right, isn't he?" Zack Polanski, "No, it's outrageous. When it comes to climate, we have to look at the cost of inaction"

My granddad, who survived the Somme and 4 years in the Trenches, used to say exacty this. He was in the British Expeditionary Force, sent to Belgium in August 1914. Hardly any of the friends he started the war with survived. #RemembranceDay2025 #LestWeForget

In November 2024 Starrmer announced that his government is in partnership with US Blackrock, a mega corporation that buys up just about anything with pension funds, and money from investors/shareholders at a higher-than-market-value value price. Thread

A London lawyer bought hundreds of Sheffield freeholds. Then the ‘very aggressive’ letters arrived. Scares people into paying extortionate price for freehold, 6000% profit. Previously arrested, charged with stalking offences. Govt must investigate these vampires.

Labour is persisting with a “nukes plus NATO” military strategy that is likely to lead to further wars. Here’s an alternative 👇 www.declassifieduk.org/the-uk-badly...

2m UK pensioners live in poverty, 110,000 a year die in fuel poverty. Neoliberals pushing to cut/freeze state pension. Evidence: UK state pension is the worst among G7 nations, last on replacement rates, joint-last on state pension spending. Britons receive pension for fewer years than most.

This whole millionaire/billionaire/trillionaire infiltration of the highest levels of government has to be the most singularly destructive threat to western democracy we have ever faced in our history.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Attention, UK! “Free economic zones” are a colonial feature of global capitalism typically used on poorer countries to extract wealth—at the expense of the self-determination and well-being of the people there. Their use in the UK is an imperial boomerang for sure

"We don't need socialism. We need public-private partnerships." After Zohran Mamdani's historic primary victory in New York, establishment Democrats are already copying his signature videos. Zeteo produced our own (fake) centrist Democrat featuring Zeteo senior producer @heycappello.bsky.social.

I had a very productive meeting this week with @spotlightcorruption.org an NGO, they were very interested in my research on the UK government's nationwide rollout of Free zones. @kamilakingstone.bsky.social
