Maria Ressa - Fighting Back Against Trump’s Authoritarian Algorithm With Truth | The Daily Show youtu.be/Tsb1I7hqaJ4

Sigh...instead of dealing with child poverty and climate emergency, I know, let's have ID Cards 💡 Another bright idea from Starmer!

Curse of private equity. After US hospitals were acquired by private equity firms, patient death rates in the emergency depts rose by 13% compared with similar hospitals. PE cut staffing, wages, investment; hiked profits. People killed for profit. Yet UK handing healthcare to PE.

A hugely underreported scandal. Those responsible still not adequately held to account. An important, but infuriating watch.

The PFI disaster Wes Streeting readies more of the NHS for privatisation. Hands £6m to advisers. NHS will be a shell doling out contracts to private equity and corporations. Profits guaranteed. Money will buy less. Higher taxes, lower value. Say NO to privatisation of the NHS.

In a UN speech today, President Trump said that "all of these [climate] predictions were wrong". Back in 2019 I led a research effort to digitize old climate model projections and assess how well they did. Turns out they got future warming pretty spot on!

@cyclingnews.com Can there be a campaign that reminds our cycling community that it is not OK to discard litter on the roadside outside organised events? Some poor local residents have to clear it up afterwards. It gives all cyclists a bad name.

Our politics and media have become viciously obsessed with immigration. Farage has made sure of it. And in that obsession, they’ve all lost sight of the people they target. Fellow human beings trying to live and belong somewhere. Shame on everyone responsible for this daily inhumanity (Letter,Times)

The even more unbelievable crime fact (which I learned relatively recently) is that burglary has fallen by more than 90% since the 1990s. Did anyone notice? Nope. Does anyone believe it? Nope. But is is true? It is!

Small boats: TV coverage - day after day after day after day.... PPE scandal: TV coverage - let's stick this powerful, enraging documentary on at quarter past ten on a Sunday night.

If you’ve just watched our documentary on ITV “The Covid Contracts” and want to read more about the governments unlawful VIP lane do consider buying my latest book 👇 @bylinetimes.bsky.social @goodlawproject.bsky.social

“Harvard geneticist David Reich said … increasingly sophisticated analysis of genetic material made possible by technological advances shows that virtually everyone came from somewhere else, and everyone’s genetic background shows a mix from different waves of migration that washed over the globe.”

😂😂

He finally got his revenge against the man who asked him if he was up past his jail time. Now it's up to us to ask why he's terrified to release #TheEPSTEIN_PedoFiles. #StandWithTheSurvivors

My last post asked if these people were insane...not really a question is it? And they all have guns!

Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:

Are these people insane?!!!

Not that it's my news to announce but back in July 2024, the new Government promised 2 million extra NHS appointments by now. To date they've notched up more than 5 million. Bet you won't hear that on the BBC any time soon.

Monarez: "Kennedy demanded 2 things of me that were were inconsistent w/ my oath of office. He directed me to commit in advance to approving every ACIP recommendation regardless of the scientific evidence. He also directed me to dismiss career officials responsible for vaccine policy without cause"

🚨 MILLIONS at higher risk will lose NHS Covid vaccines this autumn. Lives will be at risk. The NHS will face more pressure. Covid is as serious as 'flu and also requires updated seasonal vaccines. We can stop this! Sign + share our petition (on next post) 1/ #KeepCovidBoosters

Until the government is willing have an honest discussion about the negative impact of Brexit - Britain’s growth, productivity & living standards will continue to be weighed down by the structural handicap it has inflicted on the country & economy www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

FWIW i’ve switched to @bookshop.org for ebooks and Libro for audio books and with very few exceptions had the exact same experience as Amazon without the greasy aftertaste. Highly recommended.

"Farage confirms he wants to deport women asylum seekers back to Taliban in Afghanistan" If you're promoting and/or voting for Farage you should be ashamed of yourselves. news.sky.com/story/farage...

"Stay tuned for more details" -- Epstein survivor announces that survivors are creating their own list of Epstein-related abusers

Oh nothing, just the actual Prime Minister telling people they’re entirely correct to drive asylum seekers out of their communities

Across Europe, when centrist parties have adopted far right themes and sought to appease far right voters, they go down in flames. Why? Because: 1. They alienate their own base. 2. They tell other voters that the far right is correct. The determination not to learn this lesson is a wonder to behold.

Thou shalt not end vaccines. God will not save you from plague. The Middle Ages should’ve made that very clear.

Before the 19th century there were no vaccines. More than 50% of children died before reaching 2 years old, almost all from infectious diseases, now it is 0.02%. The average life expectancy was 32 years.

There are lawmakers and citizens in this country who think having an assault weapon is more important than the life of a child.

🔴 Brexiteers hate the world they created They claim that Britain is broken, while still clutching the hammer. 📝 New post 👇🏻

Where Trump is taking our country….

Gavin Newsom just went for Kid Rock 🤣

Clearly, they are not counting on the popular vote to to keep in power at the next 'election'

How low can they go?

Love Neil Young!! And he just came out with an awesome new song, “Big Crime,” : It does not mention Trump but includes lines such as, “There’s big crime in D.C. at the White House.” Click on link m.neilyoungarchives.com/news/1/Viewp...

Gavin Newsom responds to a completely fake Vanity Fair cover being spread by MAGA, who think it is real

Great to see this laid out in one place. It is nice to know at least one part of the UK is progressive and bold enough to do the right thing!

Enormous under recovery of corporation tax. It is vast c£40bln per year Corporations avoid paying their way, contributing to the state they operate in as required by the law and we just sit here bitching at people on the dole or asking for a pay rise Corps wont change nor will our state force it

61% of local govt money is spent on social care. Social care privatized since the 1980s, mainly controlled by corporations and private equity, profit margins of up to 40%, leaves little for other services. Poorest areas hardest hit. Fund it from general taxation. www.local.gov.uk/about/campai...

Pay attention. Your family’s safety is on the line.

It now seems clear that the WH sees itself as a corporate entity. Run by a psychopathic ceo, for profit.

The UK electricity is already the most expensive in the world. Price set to rise again in October as Ofgem's pricing formula lets companies rip people off. Who protects the people?

Far-right protesters in Perth opposing asylum seekers in a local hotel were outnumbered 2-to-1 by anti-racism campaigners "The far-right protesters claimed they were there to “protect women and children” .... However, tensions rose when we witnessed one man harassing a woman called Charlotte"

Just for the record, St George, the patron saint of knucklehead fascists!

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

I go. I try. And I will keep trying, even though it feels like a losing battle. Because I remember the whole point of the far-right astroturfing of social media is to make it feel like a losing battle, to make us give up. Anyway, a few snippets on small boat crossings and immigration.

Enjoy… #SuperNewsom #DonnieDiddler #TrumpEpsteinFiles #RESIST
