Jeff Bezos thinks people are ‘vilifying the rich.’ Bro, you’re one of the richest people on earth and 1/3 of your warehouse workers rely on government assistance for basic needs like food and rent. You ARE the villain.

I worked in accountancy & audit, the whole system has been cobbled together to give rich folk opportunity to conceal, hide, obfuscate income and move it to capital gains, cunning schemes & tax havens now it's time to re-write WHOLE system

Now let’s get them out of the NHS.

Rubio says that US-led peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine "were not fruitful." Not fruitful? ​Let’s look at the facts: your negotiators visited Russia seven times, and Ukraine zero times. You demanded concessions from Ukraine before negotiations even began, and throughout the entire process. You pressured Ukraine by cutting off weapons support entirely, constantly badmouthing us, and showing up at our doorstep waving Russian "peace plan" you demanded we sign immediately. ​And now, after Ukraine stands more firmly on its feet without your support, you realize you can't pressure us anymore. So your excuse is that you are tired and leaving? ​How about, for once, you actually support the victim, which is Ukraine instead of terrorist Russian regime? Send your team to Kyiv, support our fight, and apply real pressure on aggressor. Sanction Russia and seize their shadow fleet instead of handing out sanction waivers. Do that, and maybe negotiations will magically become "fruitful."

Just three weeks before the World Cup matches are due to start, FIFA has gone into a panic as they realise the immigration crackdowns in the USA means they can't fill stadiums, even at drastically reduced prices. I mean, surely they aren't that stupid that they didn't see this coming?

Andy Burnham says we could have a "localised public control option" for Thames Water What does that mean? Who is in charge? Where do the profits go? We need nothing less than permanent PUBLIC OWNERSHIP of Thames Water with households, workers and anti sewage groups on the board

Honestly- where the fuck are the people that can stop this atrocity??

Imagine if we stopped letting the private sector rip us off.

Name a better engineer than a London beaver. We’ll wait. 🦫 These incredible creatures were reintroduced to the city and have already stepped up to stop flooding at a Tube station and restore local habitats. Nature is healing (and civil engineering). npr.org/2026/05/21/nx-…

This is the beautiful River Wye on the Welsh borders. Once one of the most famous Salmon rivers in Britain. Yet another river suffering increased levels of pollution. The Environment Agency is next to useless.

Only 53% of our nature is left intact, the UK is one of the most nature depleted countries in the world. @GreenJennyJones asks the government "why we have five days of debate on the King's speech, but we have no mention of the environment?"

The BBC went “enough of this yank bullshit” and I am HERE FOR IT

Pretending Britain can drill its way back to low bills ignores reality. UK gas prices are tied to international markets. The deeper problem is decades of underinvestment, weak infrastructure and failure to build long-term energy resilience.

We would also urge greater attention to the growing issue of “fleecehold” housing estates, where residents on new-build developments pay full council tax whilst also being charged “private estate management fees” for roads, paths drainage (SuDS), play parks, public open spaces and other public-facing infrastructure as part of the planning process for everyone to benefit from the development being agreed. More councils and developers have moved towards “private management/maintenance” arrangements instead of public adoption. In practice this leaves many residents paying twice for infrastructure that serves the wider public, but without the same accountability, protections or democratic oversight people would normally expect. This #fleecehold model needs to end, including retrospective action where possible. Residents should not be paying full council tax whilst also paying private estate charges for roads, drainage, parks and open spaces that were required through planning and are used by the wider public. There needs to be stronger consumer protection and proper public adoption or accountable long-term management of public infrastructure and open space. #fleecehold #fakefreeholds #PublicLandPublicGood #unadoptedestates #estatecharges #housing #planning #localgovernment #newbuilds #conditionalfreehold #StopTheRotAdoptTheLot #section106 #flooding @AndyBurnhamGM
