🚨BREAKING: BURNHAM ACTS ON SOCIAL CARE🚨 "Britain's social care system has been turned into a cash cow for profiteers making money on the back of suffering. Fixing social care will need a serious plan with real money, that puts workers, pensioners & everyday people first” @unitesharon.bsky.social

💰 “There has never been a better time to be a billionaire” says @forbes.com There are now 3,428 billionaires in the world, up 400 on 2025. Instead of being taxed the super-rich are spanking this wealth on super yachts. There are 210,000 of them bobbing on the sea, costing between $500k & a billion

⚡One last question for Ed Miliband: UK Households & businesses pay some of the highest energy costs in Europe. Much of that is driven by profits, which are then distributed to investors in dividends & share buy-backs. Will you take UK energy into public hands to end profiteering & reduce costs?

⚡Another question for Ed Miliband: Instead of letting foreign billionaires & states rake profits out of our energy system (Warren Buffet is the largest shareholder in Northern Powergrid & the Norwegian Government made nearly £6bn in gas profits from the UK), why not take energy into public hands?
