Elon Musk is planning to spend at least $100 million to help Republicans in this year’s midterms. That’s just 0.014 percent of his current $702 billion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

😡😡Thames Water CEO: public ownership means water investment would compete with health and defence. THIS IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE. The truth is that every penny of Thames Water's planned investment will come directly from our water bills. Take 2 mins to complain to Ofcom and the BBC: vist.ly/5d5xb

This has really pissed me off, if you're in the area and can afford it go and give the cafe owner some money to help fund the kids meals. And if he refuses buy yourself a nice coffee and tip him as much as you can. Fuck Reform taking food from kids in need. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

The UK does not have a progressive tax system. The more you earn the less you will eventually pay. So the majority pay to run society and the rich get to keep the other tax in society called profit. They claim their tax dividends through the shares they hold, which is also — monopoly control.

Is “pragmatic” the new, “grown up” word? Andy, there’s nothing “pragmatic” about drilling for more oil & gas - to even consider it with the planet literally on fire is total madness. How many times must we say it will do nothing for energy bills or security? It would be an act of utter recklessness
