As Egypt hosts the world at #COP27 next month, some 60,000 Egyptian activists will be suffering in prison. We cannot be silent about this. Fighting the climate crisis can never be separated from struggles for human rights, justice, and democracy. #FreeAlaa

"Braverman says she quit after sending an official document from her personal email, a breach of ministerial rules"
Suddenly they're for following the ministerial rules? After the last few years of ripping them to shreds? What?
Later in the same article:
Today *unity* with the opportunists actually means subordinating the working class to their 'own' national bourgeoisie, and an alliance with the latter for the purpose of oppressing other nations and of fighting for dominant nation privileges; it means *splitting* the revolutionary proletariat of all countries.

This is why I don't share petitions. They had their day back in the 17th century, they have no value in the 21st century (other than data capture for mailing lists etc). People create and share them because it's what they've always done. Time to think of alternatives. https://twitter.com/ShoaibMKhan/status/1582491370719092736

@Socialdemmo The stock market is a Ponzi scheme in every sense of the word. The richest most powerful entity that creates absolutely nothing. To bring any sanity in the world it should be gradually dismantled. We shouldn't be indebted with Fiat money we can create money through the Treasury.

@ByDonkeys And these are CHARITIES. I’ve yet to receive a response to my complaint to the Charity Commission about the IEA.
