Billions paid out for wars and death, but nothing for those that are struggling to live - going to work isn't just about earning money. It is being social with colleagues and keeping your mind positive. Being ill is often painful, isolating, always expensive and very depressing.

Donald Trump's threat to Gaza is genocidal. But the Western media has helped normalise it - just like they've normalised the depravity from day one. New post 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/trump-prop...

"Anyone who didn’t do their duty for the labour market – say, people too disabled or ill to work, family carers and jobseekers – should expect very little from Labour." Just brilliant quote from @francesryan.bsky.social on labour and it's increasingly narrow minded thinking of people.

Fascism doesn’t arrive in uniform overnight. It arrives with suited politicians, one piece of legislation — or executive order — at a time. My piece for @tribunemagazine.bsky.social to mark Holocaust Memorial Day. tribunemag.co.uk/2025/01/jere...

EU medicines agency quits X & moves to Bluesky "EMA will no longer post updates and content on X. We believe the X platform no longer suits our communication needs” the agency said in a statement www.reuters.com/world/europe...

This is what genocide looks like.

It's a nazi salute. Can we just say it. Elon Musk did a nazi salute in front of a wildly applauding crowd. Because he's a fucking nazi. And so are they.

In a sign of respect, every President, Vice President and First Lady put their hands over their hearts as President Carter’s casket moved past — except for one. You can guess who. Such disrespect! 🤬

Hollywood is on fire , yet still deniers clutch at straws to blame this on anything other than the real problem– climate breakdown . I’m petitioning for a ban on fossil fuel ads to take the fight to the companies who continue to exploit our fragile planet petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Let’s get one thing straight: the cost of the Green New Deal is far less than the cost of losing our planet to the climate crisis.

here's today's post: "no, idiots, Los Angeles isn’t on fire because of ‘diversity.’ shut the fuck up" — America’s bigots are at it again. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

And yet we hand out prison sentences to climate change protesters. Nothing to see here the deniers say.

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%. That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.

Keep reminding…

That's a puzzle ... When they say they care so much ...

Suella Braverman has "seen the wall on the land border between Italy and Turkey..." Gosh I think she's been visited by more right wing fairies Minor detail - Italy and Turkey don't have a land border!!! God these right wingers are doing my head in It's like debating with stroppy 5 year olds

According to the Chinese zodiac 2025 ushers in Year of the Snake. The animal represents a serpent emerging from the ground after hibernation & connotes the unveiling of something hidden or the start of a movement or something new! Come on corbyn & Socialist Independents NOW is the time to strike!

It should be a statement of the blindingly obvious that billionaires donate to political parties to further THEIR interests, not ours… Donations should certainly be capped.

Friday, Judge Juan Merchan scheduled the sentencing for Turnip in his hush money case for January 10. In his written ruling, Merchan confirmed that Turnip would not face jail time. Of course no jail time, everyone knows laws don't apply to him! 🙄 www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Don't let them get away with the Big Lie that it all started on 7th October.

This! Are you happy that our PM is implicating us in the Israeli genocide in Gazza through his failure to condemn it? Through his continued support for it using our taxes? The UK should be recognising Palestine *now* as a crucial step in ending Netenyahu's criminal activities.

People don't vote because they have lost faith in a rotten system. Why vote? Nothing changes. "UK elections are “close to a tipping point” where they lose legitimacy because of plummeting voter turnout among renters and non-graduates, an influential think-tank has said.
