Similar to what was done to UK with Brexit, subsequent Tory governments and now Labour that have hollowed out our institutions, killed 300k+ folk with austerity, and now privatising anything that is left for short term profit. Even our land lost to foreign control in Freeports.

If they are going to bulldoze a space in the Negev desert and force Palestinians to move there why don't the Jews go to the Negev themelves to live there? Because it is uninhabitable for modern day living and agriculture is impossible.

Reducing the bus fare cap will cut just £0.07bn from govt spend At the same time it’ll hit the less well-off hardest. We shouldn’t make the poorest - and the environment - pay to demonstrate ‘fiscal credibility’ Instead, we should take redistribution seriously again, which is why I’ve been backing increased taxes on wealth

This is where the chilling effect of protest law is taking us. Young people, their future well being removed from them by foreign profiteers and they are frightened/ unable to protest or they are likely to get years in prison which will destroy the rest of their life chances.

@dominicgrieve_ Why aren't more young people in the UK protesting louder? It's their future #Brexit has destroyed. Crippling national debt, is their national debt. Crumbling infrastructure, is their infrastructure. Underfunded public services, are their public services! Where is Generation Z?

@dominicgrieve_ Our national politicians are still pandering to the Leave voters, Murdoch press and those who want to control vast areas of the UK via Freeports. By the time we get a pro EU govt, this country will be broken down small fiefdoms.

It is vital for our democracy that politicians and their advisers act with transparency, impartiality and accountability. Remove Lord Walney and investigate him for potential conflicts of interest in advising the government on protest. goodlawproject.org/petition/remov… via @goodlawproject

Private healthcare is asking the govt to guarantee them public money and contracts for the long term. Madness! Take 1 min to send @We_ownit's letter to Wes Streeting now, demanding he reject that plan. weownit.org.uk/buildournhs

We are not in the middle of school year. We are 5 weeks into a school year out of over 30 weeks and this policy was well advertised. Surely fiscally competent parents will have put this money aside to pay for the increases?

If UK news shows are going to give Boris Johnson a platform to spout his absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it We cannot allow those once in power to rewrite history. If you agree RT this FACT CHECK

Carbon capture is complete tosh. It doesn't work effectively. There are far better ways to reduce carbon. This is just pressure by fossil fuel lobbyists. Insulate homes, use nature based solutions for soaking up carbon etc.
Britain People@Britain_People

⁉️£22 BILLION PLEDGED FOR CARBON CAPTURE PROJECTS⁉️ That’s the entire cost of the “black hole”. Meanwhile, the government can’t afford £2bn to help vulnerable . #WinterFuelAllowance #Pensioners #Austerity

This is absolute madness. Carbon capture and storage has failed time and again. Labour has slashed reliable green programmes, to pour vast sums of our money into a complete crock. The only possible explanation is lobbying by fossil fuel companies.🧵 theguardian.com/environment/20…
