£1.80 for a stamp and we’re still pretending privatisation “keeps costs down”? It keeps profits up for shareholders. My Christmas/birthday cards cost less than the stamp to send them.

. @ZackPolanski is right. It’s time to ban Palantir from the NHS. Here is why 👇

The President of the United States has threatened genocide against the Iranian people. This is an open admission of the intent to commit crimes against humanity. How on earth can the world just sit by and let Trump get away with such depravity? Our own government’s complicity, appeasement and moral failure has brought us to this moment. The Prime Minister must, at a minimum, revoke the use of British air bases for US bombers — and demand an immediate end to the illegal attacks on Iran, now.

The NHS isn’t in crisis because doctors are striking. Doctors are striking BECAUSE the NHS is in crisis. Solidarity ✊

What the hell—Despite suddenly losing 1.6 million bee colonies to a mass die off in the U.S. in a year, Trump WH is instead planning to close the USDA’s premier bee 🐝laboratory, worrying beekeepers, scientists and farmers. nebraskapublicmedia.org/en/news/news-a…

End UK complicity now!

25th Amendment? Pretty please, USA. Your president just told the whole world that a civilisation will die tonight. That is not a campaign slogan. That is not locker room talk. That is a man who should not have the nuclear codes, the tariff lever, or unsupervised access to a social media account. You have a constitutional off-ramp. Use it. Regards the rest of civilisation.

I have written to the Prime Minister with Liberal Democrat colleagues to urge him to withdraw or severely limit US access to UK air bases. If Trump is threatening attacks on civilian targets in Iran, Britain cannot allow our bases to be used to commit war crimes.

At least £300,000,000,000.00 is held in Tax Havens by the richest 1%. Taxing that would bring in thousands of times more tax than this. It is time that Tax Havens were taxed.

Royal Mail privatisation Price of 1st class mail is now £1.80 - increase of 10p; 2nd class, by 4p to 91p. When privatized in 2013 by Tory/LibDem Govt: 1st class 60p; 2nd class 50p. Royal Mail hasn't met letter delivery targets, but price still rises. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Pete Hegseth: "We execute with precision...we fight with honor." Bro, you bombed schoolgirls.

I've written in @HSJnews today: Not another protracted Labour government U-turn. Wes Streeting must act now and cancel the Trump/Mandelson Palantir contract. NHS workers are voting with their feet and refusing to take part in this national disgrace.

Reminder to the USA you impeached Richard Nixon for trying to spy on his opponents. Donald Trump is a suspected pedophile, War Criminal with dementia trying to start WW3 by using nuclear weapons. Don't you think, MAYBE, you should get rid of him?

WOW! The crowd so large at a shutdown Palantir protest In Manhattan, that police couldn’t arrest everyone.

He flies on billionaire-funded private jets. His party is bankrolled by a Thai-based cryptocurrency investor who has given £12 million. He attended Trump's inauguration on £28,000 of donor money. Is the working-class hero act credible - or is it the most elaborate political performance of our lifetime?

@PeterStefanovi2 The equivalent of sending the King to go and pose with Hitler AFTER he invaded Poland. All it will do is signal our tacit approval of Trump to the rest of the World. We would literally be seen to be standing on the wrong side of history. @FCDOGovUK need to avoid this own goal.

How on earth can the trip planned by King Charles possibly go ahead with Trump making statements like this?

The doctors are the backbone of our NHS. Wes Streeting is being paid by private healthcare concerns to destroy it so they can make more profits. How is that not corruption?

Top 10 reasons data centers must be stopped. 1. Increased demand for energy puts our electric grid at risk and raises our electricity to points unknown. 2. Data centers prop up dirty energy like Gas and Coal 3. Data centers endanger water supplies 4. Data centers create a ton of pollution 5. Data centers drain public funds because states are footing the bill even though these centers do not provide jobs. 6. Data centers threaten jobs. Look at all these companies that just laid off thousands of workers who built their AI. Some reward. It’s like training your replacement except your replacement is free. 7. A Blight on Communities. The long and disruptive construction periods for data centers are wreaking havoc on many communities, leading to longer commute times, increased traffic accidents, and closed playgrounds. 8. The imperil the economy. The AI boom is propped up on the precarious stilts of monumental debt, speculation, and financial trickery. The way things are going, Big Tech may even plunge us into an economy-wide meltdown like the dot-com crash of the 2000s or the 2008 financial crisis. 9. They create toxic trash for smaller countries. Already, high-income countries have made a habit of dumping their e-waste on developing ones for “disposal.” The workers and communities receiving this waste are routinely exposed to heavy metals like lead, mercury, and cadmium, which are linked to a host of health harms, from neurodevelopmental impairments to cancer. 10. They steal our personal data. Any public information not behind a paywall may be devoured by AI companies, including voter registration data, social media profiles, passport photos, and even credit card numbers. Some AI tools have even been trained on private medical. These data centers are a danger to local communities and must be stopped. AI does far more harm than good. In the hands of billionaires it is simply evil.
