This is powerful

It's all very well making these comments, how about telling us why, why were we more exposed to the 08 crash, why were we hit harder by covid, why has it taken us longer to recover, probably down to greed & shit governance?

Amazing

Sir Michael enjoying children's TV.. Happy days.

Yorkshire Water flouted director pay rules, secretly handed £660k bonus through offshore parent company. Regulator OFWAT says that is OK, govt quiet. Law is just a paper tiger. Abuses continue. Customers fleeced. Let customers vote on exec pay. archive.ph/9rYlp

Elbit Systems (an Israeli defense company) had a (fake) story planted in the UK media that Palestine Action was funded by Iran. The exact same smear that was also widely used against pro-Palestine activists in the US.

Sir Michael on form again

🤣🤣🤣

Worth a read especially today..

Hmmmm, tough problem, I get it. Lemme think... Maybe you could give them badges and not have them wear full face-covering masks? Or have them behave more like law-enforcement and less like gangsters kidnapping regular people? Just floating some ideas here.

Interesting article..

Uk could learn

Sorry to interrupt your afternoon, but I felt you should see this. A rare foray into video as I ask, "Monarchy... what the hell is it all about, eh?"

Yes

Hey! I just called on the UK government to scrap anti-protest laws which attack our hard won democratic freedoms. Please can you defend the right to protest too by signing the petition? act.gp/3pIM9ns

Clean, affordable water belongs to all of us. I’ve told the new Environment Secretary to act on real evidence for public ownership and put people first. Join me:https://actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-emma-reynolds-to-base-water-policy-on-facts-not-water-industry-fake-maths?source=bluesky&

Fake news 🙂

The UK never expelled the Israeli soldiers it was training in Britain during a genocide. It just "paused" future training. Now, even this decision is "under review". We revealed the UK has trained Israeli soldiers fighting in Gaza 👉 www.declassifieduk.org/britain-trai...

Feel inspired..

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

Given that it was the Green Party conference last week Does anyone know why Zack Polanski wasn't invited onto Laura Kuenssberg's BBC show, or onto Trevor Phillips's Sky News program?

"You can say what you like, I don’t care, because that’s what free speech is," Nigel Farage has just told the House Judiciary Committee, about three hours after his party banned me from covering its conference this weekend.

So Donald Trump, President of The United States is allegedly on The Epstein List. This totally SHOCKED me. Never in a million years did I think Donald Trump was a member of The Beatles. 😳

Privatisation broke our water system. @labourslewis.bsky.social has a people-first, evidence-based alternative, and I’m backing it. Add your name to the People’s Plan for Water: ​https://actionnetwork.org/forms/water-belongs-to-all-of-us-back-the-peoples-plan-for-water?source=bluesky&​

Ian McMillan's early stroll tweet. The breeze is rushing somewhere; it must be late. Scattered blossom like spring’s confetti. Each step crosses the border to the next step. A moving car’s number plate could be an optician’s mobile chart. I think I glimpse the lost hour in the shadows.

Thinking of all those, like me, crying as they remember their mums . #mothersday

The UK today

Some of the companies that didn't pay the minimum wage to some of their workers, until chased by regulators. Staffline Recruitment, Rank Group, Mitchells & Butlers, Easyjet, Greggs, Moss Bros, WH Smith, Lloyds Pharmacy, Marks and Spencer, Argos. Any forget to pay the right amount to bosses?

Gareth Southgate, "True success is how you respond in the hardest moments" "It's about having the belief and resilience to persevere" "Not everyone will win trophies. Not everyone will be at the top of their field" "But everyone can live a life where they constantly try to improve"

This quote should be everywhere...especially in schools...I note he went to Croydon FE college according to their social media .

Let’s honour the memory of Hossam Shabat. Take his courage, his clarity, his determination - and keep speaking up and keep fighting until Palestine is free. 🇵🇸
