How Many Times Will He Say I Told You So?

Ahead of the budget, the Independent Alliance is asking the Chancellor to: 1. Scrap the 2-child benefits cap 2. Reverse cuts to winter fuel 3. Tax wealth 4. Protect welfare 5. Invest in a greener future We have the means to end poverty. We just need the political will.

Scrapping the £2 bus fare cap is a disgraceful decision that will harm the poorest in society, and discourage public transport at a time when it is needed more than ever. Why is the government punishing people for trying to get to work?

@AXS_UK appalled by the lack of customer service & promised refund for the cancelled @TheDeadSouth4 on the 4th Nov... a recorded message saying phone lines closed indefinitely! Very poor experience for my first time using your company.

"I don't know exactly what a prayer is. I do know how to pay attention,how to fall down into the grass, how to kneel in the grass, how to be idle and blessed,how to stroll through the fields which is what I have been doing all day. Tell me, what else should I have done?"~M Oliver

I can hear the sizzle of newborn stars, and know anything of meaning, of the fierce magic emerging here. I am witness to flexible eternity, the evolving past, and I know we will live forever, as dust or breath in the face of stars, in the shifting pattern of winds. ―Joy Harjo

Echoing across Britain: “It’s actually quite cold when the sun goes in”
