Sometimes it is not complicated.

As a Canadian your leadership has given me hope. The internet exploded in memes after this that was confusing. David Doel brought me up to speed youtu.be/uy_T9XFIxGA?...

Caroline Lucas of the Green Party reckons that Water needs to be Renationalised. RT if you know it has to be.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

Next CEO pay rose from £4.9m to £7.4m, could hit £9.27m this year. Company changed CEO pay formula because it didn't give directors enough. Non-exec directors to get higher pay. Most shop workers toil on/around minimum wage. Govts preach pay restraint to workers but no curbs on fat-cattery.

I have a weird red flag saying "unable to connect" on here. What's that about?

The government froze tax thresholds, so working people are being quietly squeezed. I signed this to call for higher tax-free pay. Will you add your name? the.organise.network/campaigns/pe...

Why does the American tax system favor the wealthy? And how did it get this way? I chatted with Jon Stewart about this back in 2012. Sadly it's only gotten worse since then. We must keep up the fight to fix the system.

Iran is still dunking on Trump as You Tube bans them. Trump can’t stop the internet though. New video. 😃

Interesting watch here.

Write to Keir Starmer to demand that he cancels all government contracts with Palantir, which provides AI technology used in Israel's genocide in Gaza palestinecampaign.eaction.org.uk/cancelpalant...

The Hinkley C UK nuclear reactor will produce 3.2GW, it will cost £50bn. For that the UK could have built 40GW of Wind Turbines in 1/5th of the time. Which would even on the least windy days of the year produce TWICE as much electricity. Nuclear is an unnecessary RIPOFF.

Nice to see Peter Oborne give @zackpolanski.bsky.social and Hannah Spencer credit in the latest video for Double Down News on the Iran war. www.patreon.com/posts/152598...

Happy International Women's Day!

This is part of the government climate report that was redacted. Something they don't want you to know. #ClimateCrisis

I signed the petition asking the government to put climate before profit and end secret corporate courts – will you join me? action.friendsoftheearth.uk/petition/sto...

This should never be a thing in healthcare. Get the profiteers out of hospice care.

When people were planning an attack on a synagogue it was rightly headline news on the BBC website - so why is this story buried in local news? This two tier reporting of racism has to stop. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Poor thing, will no one think of the Billionaires?

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

Please consider signing this petition.

Enough is enough. The House of Lords is a rolling scandal - sign @electoralreform.bsky.social‬'s call to demand change. It takes 30 seconds. action.electoral-reform.org.uk/page/186062/...

Essential viewing! 👀

UK women's median private pension wealth estimated at roughly 37% to 48% less than men's. While the TUC notes a narrowing trend (down to ~36.5%), Legal & General reports that by retirement, men's average pension pots are twice the size of women's, driven by lower earnings and career breaks.

Isn’t it interesting that almost all the apologists for it in this thread are a) male b) probably middle class c) totally unconcerned about the diversity of women and which segments of women are both most affected and least heard in this @antoniabance.bsky.social that is rarely talked about

So "without merit" that the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman found there had been an injustice that required a remedy for the women affected?

So many assumptions, so little time.

Surely Wes Streeting wouldn't be so dim as to let it happen here? Would he? #NHS.

I was telling one of my kids that it was physically impossible for an ad to play between songs on any of the records I own, and they asked "and you only have to pay for it once?" and you could see how strange that seemed. You cannot overstate how many basic rules of media consumption have changed.

I still miss him.

The EU is preparing a gift for pesticide giants: toxic pesticides could stay on the market forever, with no safety tests at all. Yes, forever approvals. Yes, this is real. Sign now to stop it. action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-12...

A so-called Labour PM trying to roll back human rights. Enough of the man. Get him out asap.

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders just now:

And no two tier education.

Failures at South East Water owned water treatment centre led to tens of thousands of people in Tunbridge Wells being cut off from the supply. In 2024, regulator warned SEW over bacteria and pesticide contamination risks ... nothing happened. Does any regulator serve the people?

Could you spare the price of a pint to help save The White Swan, a pub bought by developers who pushed up rents until it was "unviable" and want to build flats on the site? There's a pattern of this happening across London. Please help if you can. (Great video) www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/whiteswana...

"We live in a time when intelligent people are being silenced so that stupid people won't be offended."

The real BBC bias story, narrated by Anna Ford

Private water company United Utilities, who provide water services for north west England, made profits of £562 million in the first six months of 2025/6. Unite general secretary Sharon Graham condemned the "obscene" profits.
