-Their property is protected by a publicly-funded police and fire service. -Their goods are transported on publicly-funded roads and bridges. -Their workforce is educated in publicly-funded schools and kept healthy by a public health system.

The cost of food has risen by 37% in five years. Meanwhile, Tesco’s operating profit jumped from £1.8bn in 2021 to £3.1bn in 2024/25, an increase of 72%. Call it what it really is - GREEDFLATION.

Fiscal rules aren't economic law—they're a political straitjacket designed by & for the rich. Labour & Tories use them to scare us into accepting poverty & privatisation. We must break these rules to invest in people, not profit. Their consensus is our crisis. #RadicalChange

This is so powerful. Private healthcare has already contaminated our NHS too much. Don't let it go any further. vist.ly/4cmrj #NHS #publicownership

I'll be speaking at the launch of this excellent report in about 10 mins! Link below

A deeply, disingenuous report. Parroted by people, pushing the narrative that the LP is doing positive things. Deeply troubling, misinformation spreaders!

This image, and the presentation of it, is deeply misleading. It omits context, scales down ambitions, and repackages minor developments or continuations of existing policy as major victories. #LabourPromises #FactCheck #UKPolitics

"Christians, Muslims, Jews, migrants and people from a global majority background face the threat of violence or harassment as they simply go about their lives each day. This is unacceptable for the UK in the 21st century." @carladenyer.bsky.social on the increase in reported hate crimes.

There is literally a serving Labour MP, who lobbied on behalf of water companies. They are never going to change course, tax payers money and bill charges into the pockets of investors. It's time to organise a 'PAYMENT STRIKE', as it's illegal to turn someone's water off! #waterbillstrike

A new day of nationwide strikes in France maintains pressure on embattled PM The Confédération Générale du Travail (CGT) counted the participants of yesterday's strikes at 600,000, across 230 towns and cities in France www.thecanary.co/global/world...

"For the next 15 years, give us a subsidy from public money, and remove the disincentive for us to stop dumping raw sewage, so our creditors are rescued from the consequences of their own greed" is not, I have to say, the world's most appealing pitch. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Labour will find increases in the state pension age are unacceptable, just as cuts to the Winter Fuel Allowance, personal independence payments and universal credit are — it needs to change direction immediately, writes PCS general secretary FRAN HEATHCOTE morningstaronline.co.uk/article/labo...

Almost two in three Labour members would back Burnham as leader Starmer made poor policy choices Two child benefit cap. Winter fuel payment fiasco. Disability benefit cuts. Sticking to Tory income tax thresholds. No curbs on energy/water profiteering. Return of PFI. No end to political corruption

A single person in the UK now needs to earn £30,500 a year to “participate in society” and "live with dignity", new research has found.

NICK WRIGHT reports from Italy, where 80 cities saw Gaza strikes as unions paralysed transport and massive crowds clashed with police in Milan — but France is also kicking off, and Westminster, in a very different way, is facing a crisis of legitimacy too morningstaronline.co.uk/article/parl...

😡This is madness! The government is shelling out millions to Deloitte to advise on bringing PFI back into the NHS. PFI deals signed under Blair are still damaging our NHS today, yet Wes Streeting wants to set another ticking time bomb under our NHS. We have to stop this.

Being disabled is a minority group you can join at any time. Everyone believes they will be the exception. That it won’t happen to them, or when it does they will “try harder” than us The truth is most people will become disabled. Health is both fragile & temporary. Engage in disability justice

Green Party - Nationalise the water companies, tax the super rich, invest in our public services, stop the genocide, lower bills. The Telegraph - Greens are "hard left."

How do we fix this mess?

No other party says the basic truth: migration is good for Britain. The real problem? Inequality, soaring bills, underfunded public services. That’s driven by the greed of the super rich and the Labour government who serve them - not by migrants.

I just want to say how hopeful I am about @zackpolanski.bsky.social becoming the leader of the Green Party. Heres to the next election, you becoming an MP and a coalition of socialist groups, smashing the far right establishment ghouls✊

Congratulations to @zackpolanski.bsky.social on your stunning victory. Your campaign took on the rich and powerful, stood up for the dignity of all marginalised communities, and gave people hope! Real change is coming. I look forward to working with you to bring about a fairer, kinder world.

80 years ago, the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima - a crime against humanity that killed tens of thousands in an instant. We remember the victims and survivors, and recommit to building a world free from nuclear weapons.

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts. The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative. Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

Thread (1/38) Three Baseless Taboos are Derailing National Renewal

The IMF urges UK govt to end the pensions triple lock and charging for NHS treatment. Condemning pensioners to poverty and denying healthcare to low/middle income families is part of the right wing agenda. How many will be killed by neoliberalism? Anything to avoid taxing corporations & the rich.

"If you’re a young person, your home is not going to increase in value at the same rate as your parents’. To understand why, you have to understand how housing markets really work." Read: graceblakeley.substack.com/p/the-housin...

“The pressure has led to some tenants making decisions about jobs based on rent in the area, and parents who are helping their grown-up children with living costs.” When rent dictates your career and your parents are your safety net - the system is broken. We need rent controls now.

Bankrupt countries don't have welfare states. On @lbc.co.uk just now

The government spends £80 billion a year encouraging people to save – but saving don’t fund growth, wages or investment. They just prop up banks and financial markets. In this video, I explain the truth about savings, and what we need to do. youtu.be/eVsVHVOwh4E?...

When the media are freaking out about “out of control spending” they are lying to your faces. Welfare isn’t “spending”, either. It’s an investment. ALL of that money goes back into the economy. Money leaves our economy when we let the rich hoard it & refuse to tax giant foreign companies properly.

Astonishing: Thames Water was fined £18.2m on 19 Dec 2024 by OFWAT for violating dividend payment rules. It hasn't paid the fine. The Minister says TW "has until 20 August 2025 to pay the fine.". TW has over 187 criminal convictions, allowed to negotiate fines.

In 2029, the choice will be stark: Socialism or barbarism.

We need answers on funding for the government's 10 Year Health Plan, which is why we're asking Prime Minister Starmer to provide clarity. If you haven't already, please join the thousands who have written to the PM through our campaign page: everydoctor.eaction.org.uk/show-us-the-...

Welfare U-turn makes spending decisions harder, UK minister says. Why scapegoat the old, sick, poor, disabled? Not taxing the rich is a political choice. There is money for corporate welfare, crony contacts, foreign wars. Since 2010 HMRC failed to collect £500bn of tax.
