@BasilTheGreat What if it turns out that the police believe something quite different. Why not wait until they bring charges?

🚨NEWS: Ann Widdecombe murderer is believed to be a radical leftist, extensive amounts of communist propaganda were found in his home

@BareLeft Any Russian Communist literature the supect might have had is likely to be 100 years old.

Take a guess at what this is. Wrong answers only.

Not one Tory politician or supplier of dodgy PPE has done time for the VIP Lane scandal. But a fair few should probably be behind bars.

Why the wealthy pay less tax than you do - and how to fix it youtu.be/2Ys9m1t8lN4?si… The tax system is fundamentally biased in favour of wealth. Let's change that right before doing a wealth tax, or the bias will remain.

@AndreasSteno State funded healthcare in a country that issues its own free floating fiat currency is NOT taxpayer funded. US healthcare is excellent—if you are in the 1%. For everyone else it’s an expensive lottery. It bankrupts hundreds of thousands. Others just die unnecessarily.

@JH_Investments If the personal allowance had been regularly increased with inflation from 2018 it would be about £17000. If it had been regularly increased with inflation from 1979 it should be about £25000 now.

One might argue Amnesty is now pro-torture, given it seems to be in favour of an ideology that has led to vulnerable, confused kids being castrated who later come to regret it. Imagine how this feels: realising you weren’t “born in the wrong body” after all, that this was a dreadful social media lie reinforced by adults you trusted with your welfare. But now it’s too late: you’re permanently mutilated thank to woke medics who betrayed their duty to “first, do no harm”. That must feel like torture every single day.

Whoever came up with this deserves a standing ovation. 😂😂😂 “Stop the bungs” with Count Binface standing on the beach while Nigel Farage rows away in a boat full of cash… satire doesn’t get much better than this.

The Marxists are right about this. The tendency of the rate of profit to fall. The 'investors' - the creditor class - can no longer make enough money on normal stuff like agriculture and manufacturing. They have to cancel democratic politics, disempower the state and privatise everything that was once public. One sweeping, final asset-strip for the rentiers. They also task their tech nerds with the creation of a decadent fantasy world we can rent from them every day. To sustain 'investor confidence', nothing must be public, nothing free, nothing sacred and nothing real. But it rests on the big lie that we need their money. In fact we have our own money, created by the state every day. They're desperate to restrict that, so the IMF tells each nation to keep its spending/investment down to 3% of GDP. Enough for the minimal welfare and everyday maintenance required to quell civil unrest. Defy the creditor class and they'll sell off your bonds and currency on global markets and tank your economy. The other big lie - they can do that only if we let them. This is why the creditor class is terrified of the economic truths uncovered by heterodox economics positions such as post-Keynesianism and #MMT. Understanding this simple fact - we do not need them or their money - is revolutionary.

@Zachary_Starr_ @TheTweetOfGod Einstein might have used a few words that are not in the Bible. Letters and numbers in the Bible depend on which translations we read.

@geoffingarfield @TheTweetOfGod What did Einstein use to describe his concepts? Words? Numbers? All are in the Bible.

Every single word in the Bible is true. It's only when you group them together as sentences that they start getting iffy.

@BoardofDeputies @JLC_uk So how do you view the recent statements by Ben Gvir and Smotrich on the future of the Palestinian people?

The Board of Deputies and @JLC_uk have conveyed concerns to Andy Burnham's team following his statement yesterday. We welcome his commitment to tackling antisemitism, but it cannot be confronted without addressing all its drivers, including extreme hatred of Israel that builds on one-sided portrayals of the situation in Gaza and ignores the role of Hamas.

The first thing he should do but won't is raise the basic income allowance its been frozen at 12,500 for years & has been extremely hard on low paid, part time workers& now pensioners are dragged into cut back on UC & raise the basic rate to £17k or even 20k that would help more people

@Zachary_Starr_ @TheTweetOfGod So knowledge of the Universe is confined to the limits of the alphabet? Einstein might have had something to say about that.

@TheTweetOfGod The Bible contains every letter of the alphabet. So by extension it contains every word possible. So by extension it contains all conceivable knowledge of the universe. Prove me wrong.

The problem with the number of fringe candidates now saying they'll stand in Clacton is that splitting the anti Farage vote might let him in. They should all unite behind Count Binface.

England should walk away from this corrupt World Cup. It's not worth winning now.

13 red cards have been handed out at the World Cup. 1 player, the US got no extra matches ban. 11 players got a 1 extra match ban. 1 player, England got a 2 match ban, so he won't be able to play against Argentina in the Semi's either. The World Cup is fixed.

A debate framed in permitted terms will only deliver permitted results. Taxes are not a funding source, they don’t pay for govt spending, & wealth tax won’t alleviate poverty. The debate should focus on inequality and political power which the establishment want to avoid.

This is a case study in the faux intellectual guffe that passes as analysis in the West on Israel. The solution is that the Israelis should stop killing the Palestinians and seeking to impose on them a system of ethnic hegemony. Until they do so they should be treated as South Africa was in the late 1980s.

The problem here is focusing on a wealth tax as a revenue raising mechanism. Frame excess wealth as a threat to democracy, the environment, and to fairness. Then a wealth tax only needs to raise enough to remove excess wealth.
