Profit based logic doesn’t help people except as an accidental byproduct.

There is a tendency for disasters (including climate disasters) to be managed from the top down, and include military in the response.

Let’s take a closer look at some of the foundational ideological positions that the @Conservatives publicly claim to support, & how their actions & policies all too often run in complete & total contradiction to them.

People are furioius at Owen Jones for saying that they should have moral consistency.
If they're angry at Johnson for lying then they should also be angry at Starmer for the same thing. The man is a snake who broke literally every single pledge he made to become Labour leader. https://twitter.com/guardian/status/1531601781335236609

Very disappointing.
Cannabis being illegal ruins countless more lives than the plant alone ever could. Labour's chest-puffing stance of bashing users at every opportunity to show they'd be 'tough on crime' is embarrassingly out of touch and outdated. 🧵
