Just a few more years of lashing out at every potential ally and we can all be safely on fire: let’s do this! Let’s all fucking die!

If the political chaos taught us anything, its:

•Hunger is a political choice
•Poverty is a policy choice
•Profits don’t trickle down
•Privatisation has failed
•Workers keep society going not billionaires
•Tax Wealth and the Rich
•Strikes work

Lessons not to be ignored

Austerity ripped the resilience out of health and social care, leaving us ill-prepared for the consequences of a pandemic. That should have taught us a lesson about how vital public services are. Instead, it appears we are headed for austerity 2.0. This will be disastrous.

Meet Simon Thompson, the CEO of Royal Mail. He earns £62,750 a month.

Because its hard to get by on that, he also awarded himself a £140,000 bonus this year.

Simon is threatening workers with job cuts because they've taken strike action over him cutting their pay in real terms.

How did we get into this mess?

⚡️1986 - our energy sold off
🚍1986 - our buses privatised and deregulated
🥤1989 - our water sold off
🚝1994 - our railway privatised
📮2013 - our Royal Mail sold off

2022 - time to take back what's ours!?

President Biden on Liz Truss' mini budget.

" it was predictable... I wasn't the only one who thought it was a mistake.... I disagreed with the policy of cutting taxes for the super wealthy"

.@IanByrneMP has dedicated his life to supporting the people of Liverpool. He's helped set up food banks, given a voice to those without, supported striking workers and much more. That Starmer's Labour are trying to have him deselected is another sign the Party is morally dead.

Modern monetary theory explains how the left could avoid this. Nothing else does. But Labour explicitly rejects it, preferring the interests of the City over those of people. They think they can do this when riding high in the polls. Pride might deliver their fall.
