@RockChartrand @SAFCPaddy Does that help you understand @SAFCPaddy?
Or will you 'never understand' that anyone creating wealth is good for all of us?

It isn’t billionaires. It’s the principle that individuals have a right to produce, trade, and keep what they earn.
Billionaires are just the most visible target. Start there, and you normalize the idea that success is a liability. Once that principle is accepted, it doesn’t stay confined. It moves downward.
And there’s a practical side you’re ignoring. In a free system, you choose who you deal with. You can walk away. When power shifts to bureaucrats, that choice disappears. You deal with them whether you want to or not.
So no, it isn’t about defending the rich. It’s about rejecting a system where your rights depend on who has political power.

🇬🇧 “Disinformation is one of the defining challenges of our time”
London Mayor Sadiq Khan just delivered another speech on misinformation & disinformation - calling for the government and social media companies to act.
He’s pissed that the World is seeing the rapid decline happening every day across London - and he wants you to believe it’s all false. It’s not.

There are credible reports that the Islamic Republic in Iran has subjected protesters to horrific sexual torture, causing injuries so severe that some victims required the removal of their wombs.
This is a regime that fuels conflict across the region, funds terrorism, and works to destabilise the West. Why would anyone expect it to negotiate in good faith,or honour any agreement it signs?

@hughjbrown @wesstreeting @NHSuk Fair enough, but how can you then accuse Farage of holding a particular position?

@TimBr1ggs @wesstreeting @NHSuk He's made contradictory statements about how it should be funded, and denied saying what he previously said (even though it's on video).
How can you have a sensible debate with someone who doesn't have a consistent position?

Farage. In his own words. From both of his faces.

@Handre Capitalism keeps socialist countries going for a bit longer.
Then the socialist countries collapse under the weight of their own contradictions: debt, poverty, inequality, misery
English
Venezuela didn't collapse into hyperinflation until 2013 — 14 years after Chávez took power
Cuba didn't start eating zoo animals until 1994 — 35 years after Castro's revolution
East Germany didn't build the Berlin Wall until 1961 — 12 years after going full socialist
Europe can relax; they still have time to reverse course.
The road to serfdom has plenty of exit ramps before you reach the final destination.

To tackle the Housing Crisis, you have to be bold.
The Greens have just set THE benchmark in tackling the Housing Crisis👇🏽
The Green Party@TheGreenParty
✅ A plan for rent controls ✅ Social housing shaped by community need ✅ An end to leaseholds and a broken housing system that benefits developers not residents 🗳️ Vote Green on 7th May for affordable housing 💚

🚨 NEW: Green Party leader Zack Polanski unveils sweeping plans to tackle Britain’s “affordability crisis” today.
His proposals include:
- A 10:1 pay cap, limiting how much top earners can make compared to the lowest-paid workers
- Free school meals for all pupils
- Universal energy bill support
- Stronger rent controls
- A customs union with the EU to cut business costs
Zack Polanski says: “The affordability crisis is something affecting nearly everyone… any change in circumstance can push people over the edge into requiring a foodbank.”
“This crisis is totally avoidable and down to choices made by this Labour Government and previous Tory Governments.”
“The Greens have a plan… taking on corporate power and vested interests to give ordinary people a way out of this crisis.”
