My MP, Tory, Sarah Atherton, rammed Brexit down the throats of the people of Wrexham - will she now apologise for the lies and broken promises and explain her plans to make up for the EU money that Wales lost?

The £120m “Festival of Brexit” is a flop, attracted only 238,000 visitors instead of the anticipated 66m.
I wonder how many were stuck in queues at Dover, in the 6.7m NHS England waiting list and sewage-packed rivers
Still, Tory cronies got the contract.

By the same token
Once a business has generated enough revenue to match what was invested in it, plus a reasonable profit (say) - why do the share holders still matter? Why shouldn't they relinquish their shares to the people who do the actual work?
Well, we know why.
And the bosses are proxies for owners so get similar rewards.
Maybe I just don't understand
What do the execs in the big corporations actually do to justify their salaries in the millions?
Business is about knowing how to serve customers repeatably and reliably. The CEO (or whatever) isn't doing the serving, or designing the processes.
So what are they for, in fact?

Without further Govt support we will see the biggest single year drop in disposable income - and living standards - since records began https://twitter.com/resfoundation/status/1565221666216677377?t=vmXJhxH3CmukSEvV2lfzQQ&s=19

Stansted and MAG expected our members to make financial sacrifices during the pandemic and they expect them to do the same thing now during the cost-of-living crisis. Our members won’t stand for it and they will receive Unite’s full support. 👉

There is mass strike action and a cost of living crisis going on *right now* but Keir Starmer’s answer is to say ‘just wait 2 years until there is an election’.
The bare minimum response should be ‘we will stand with you’ yet he can’t even say that. Starmer is useless. https://twitter.com/labourlist/status/1564937762578599937
