London housing officially classed as unaffordable for every income decile. Average English home costs 7.9 times the average salary; 13.5 times in London. Bad news for other regions too. Result of real wage cuts, profiteering, shortages, rentier economy. Many won't be able to pay rents in old-age

Douglas Alexander, "During the Rwanda scheme being in place, 84,000 people crossed the channel" "And for £700 million your Conservative government sent back 4 volunteers" "That is a lesson to be learnt on how not to do it" #BBCQT

Privatisation of UK industries driving cost of living crisis & inequality. People ripped off by water, energy, rail, mail companies. Profiteering at care homes, dentists, GP surgeries, cataract clinics. Social housing destroyed. Privatisation is a scam. Delivered low investment, poor service.

The Conservatives started this experiment. But Labour are fully on board too. No 10 refuse to comment or take action - but we're all paying the price for corporate greed. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This is worth a watch Andy @mayorofgm.bsky.social youtu.be/bKwjj4sZWvA?...

With the world atletics championship now on, its worth watching this from many years ago #worldathletics #athletics youtu.be/mi9KwAy5iQo?...

Harry Cole, "The same people that were leading the protest (against President Trump in 2017) on a political level, Yvette Cooper for example who was marching against Donald Trump's previous visits" "Was there on the runway shaking President Trump's hands for 11 seconds yesterday"

UK could raise £2bn by taxing SUVs in line with European countries. Why do so many people want giant SUVs? They damage roads, create more pollution, cause more serious injuries and take up bigger parking spaces. UK buyers pay 20 times less tax than in other European countries. Tax them.

UK public has paid £200bn to shareholders of privatised water, rail, bus, energy and mail services, mostly foreign owned. Investment neglected. Regulators useless. Often little/no competition, captive customers fleeced,, more pushed into poverty. Privatisation is one of the biggest scams.

UK govts appease corporations and the super-rich, people navigate crumbling social infrastructure. Hard to see GP/Dentist Shortage of social housing. Sewage in rivers. Sky-high energy prices 6.25m in England await 7.4m hospital appointments. Unchecked profiteering. Must abandon neoliberalism.

This genocide belongs to Britain, too. The government’s legacy will be its complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time. We will never give up until there is justice, peace and freedom for the Palestinian people. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

UK employee median wage £30,816 (net £25,707). Millions barely survive, bosses collect up to 1,112 times average wage. 37% on Universal Credit claimants are at work. People surviving on food banks, charity. Can't revive economy without redistribution.

Sewage pours into rivers of English & Welsh national parks at twice rate elsewhere. 254,808 hours of sewage dumped, underinvestment & mismanagement. More than half of the rivers in national parks failed to meet the good ecological status required by law. Regulators do little.

So what now? #gaza #israel www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Tesla boss Elon Musk wants to overthrow UK govt. Big pharma wants the NHS to pay higher drugs prices or else. Banks warn govt not to levy higher taxes on them, cut worker wages they say. People bear cost of corporate pollution, abuses. Choice - Curb corporate power and slavery or democracy.

Labour must reset policies, boost purchasing power of the bottom 50%. Median wage £30.432 (£25,431 net), bosses collect up to 1,112 times the average worker pay. 37% of universal credit claimants are in work. Poorest in Slovenia and Malta better off than the poorest in the UK. Must redistribute.

Big pharma threatens the UK govt. Want higher drugs prices/profits, squeezing the NHS budget, forcing higher taxes. Trump wants lower drugs prices in the US, uses Europe as reference point. So companies threaten UK govt. Corporate power used to bully govts. UK Govt must produce generic drugs.

Another viral tax claim on X. The boss of Tesco apparently pays "not a penny" of UK tax on his £10m salary. True or false?

Michael Gove, "If we had a Tory Mayor in London rather than Sadiq Khan, we would not have the tube misery people are experiencing" There were 20 different sets of tube strikes during the time Boris Johnson was the Conservative Mayor of London

Barclays Bank's CEO tells govt to cut wages of public sector workers instead of taxing banks. Wants to cut wages of doctors, nurses, teachers, cleaners, drivers, cooks, security guards to give more to bankers. Wage rises inflationary apparently but CEO pay, dividends aren't. archive.ph/yTGN7

Mr Dodgy and his girlfriend’s house in Clacton

£10m public money spent on subsidies for former UK PMs to run their offices. Many abuse it to run private businesses, serve corporations/rich, enrich themselves. All cut benefits to the people but no means-testing for their allowance, no public interest test, no public accountability.

In light of Peter Mandelson being dropped as Ambassador due to close ties to Epstein When will Peter Mandelson be removed from the House of Lords?

Unbelievable week for the podcast! Over 50,000 people tuned in. Number 8 in the UK charts. And a brand new episode with the brilliant @zoejardiniere.bsky.social out now! Check out a sneak peak to this weeks @boldpolitics.bsky.social 👇🏼

Corruption Inc Boris Johnson traded PM contacts for global business deals. Used publicly funded office to manage commercial deals. Secret meetings with Palantir, handed NHS data. Secret Dinners during COVID lockdown to secure refurbishment of his flat. £200,000 from a hedge fund.

So the political journalist who appeared to be Boris Johnson’s stenographer through Covid was *actually* his co-conspirator who broke lockdown rules with him & then failed to report on the lies he told to cover it up. I’m shocked I tell you, shocked.

Good morning from the Lake District #lakedistrict #england

People are exhausted. Our high streets, public spaces, whole communities left unloved. Blaming migrants won’t fix this. Tackling inequality will. Tax the super-rich. Fund public services. #DrawTheLine www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Yes! This is the way to do this. Want details? OK. Someone raking in a billion/yr will (gross) earn >70x the UK median national average wage (again, gross) *every single day*. While they *sleep*, they’ll earn more than the average Brit will bring in across more than half of their working lifetime.

What utter dickheads we are… Rayner fought for workers: sick pay, maternity rights, protection from unfair dismissal Farage and his MPs voted it down Rayner gets binned over £40k in stamp duty Farage dodges £44k, shrugs & strolls on The mega wealthy win again.

Since this is apparently a resigning matter, I’ll just leave this here… www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

A message for Nigel Farage and Reform: We will hold you to account. They've taken at least £2.3m in oil and gas donations and their true agenda is serving the super rich. It's time for us all to challenge power & wealth and that massively includes Farage.
