Goodwin creating hate, division and choas. He is racist. He is interested only in gaining power and making his fortune from oil, bitcoin, insurance lobbyists.

Reform UK wants to shut this down. If it did so, it would throw a million people out of work. Why? because it is beholden to the fossil fuel industry.

This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue

The objective is not to spend more on benefits. How little imagination these people have! The objective is to invest in giving hundreds of thousands more people a good, productive life. And unashamedly support those in real trouble, while working to make their lives good too.

Working hard? Nigel Farage registered ‘absent’ from the last 77 votes in Parliament. UK MP basic salary is £98,599 plus expenses, including second home. Since becoming MP Farage has collected £2m from other jobs. There are questions about his undeclared gifts.

I'm sitting here watching a proven innocent woman subject herself to an interview that Farage is repeatedly evading. And I bet even if he did, he'd just dismiss every question and Kuennesberg would let him.

Westminster wasted Scotland's oil, no long term benefit to Scots. With climate change Westminster will be looking to sieze water from Scotland. Scotland produces cheap, clean energy but pays the highest prices in UK. Scotland must bring energy into public ownership. Get a move on SNP, Greens.

The Tories always cry about the minimum wage as a cause of unemployment, but they never look at pay at the other end of the scale. British CEOs have devoured wages, while cutting them of those they employ. We are in a permanent CEO greed crisis.

Britain’s CEOs earn 100+ times the median pay of their workers, up from 20 times in the 1970s. But high pay doesn't boost performance or productivity.

Sitting in the courtyard outside the main entrance of the Royal London Hospital. Lots of seating and flower beds. People eating their lunch and chilling in the sun. Or, like me, waiting for their appointment. A classically trained harpist is adding to the vibe. I'm so thankful for the NHS. 🙏

Is Tony Blair talking on behalf of Trump and the Board of Peace, the oil lobby, big business? He isn't worried about the cost of living or the plight of working people. As Thatcher said, Blair is one of my finest achievements.

Lord Wolfsons of Next justifies incredibly high margins as a reason for poor employment opportunities. Enormous profits demanded by business, especially oil, energy, water, banking and finance are bleeding the life out of the country. Pure greed.
