Given suggestions the Government should go further in subsidising bills again because of the conflict in Iran we wanted to look at what sort of govt interventions/policies were/weren't affordable. 50% think govt could subsidise bills to stop the impact of the war, 38% disagree


Climate Stalin will kill us even quicker. The very last thing we need is the fetishistic idea that a single figure will solve all our problems and that everyone else is let off the hook to shut their brain off and follow orders. That will blind us on both ends.

Slavoj Žižek on the Iran war:

Rachel Reeves says in the Mais lecture she will deliver "a break with the laissez-faire politics of the passive state". This will help boost medium-term productivity growth, she claims.

Nicolás Maduro is being held in solitary confinement at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. He is in a tiny cell about 3 by 2 meters, with a metal bed, a toilet, and a small window. He can only leave the cell three times a week for one hour under guard. This is considered torture under international law. The United States has kidnapped and is torturing the democratically-elected leader of a sovereign state. We call for the release of President Maduro and First Lady Celia Flores!


Our council housing stock - sold off! Our energy - sold off! Our water - sold off! Our industry - sold off!

Unjustifiable price hikes for fuel as well as heating oil will not be tolerated. The @CMAgovUK have my full backing in using its powers against those seeking to exploit the current situation and its customers.
