This year, bankers collected the biggest bonuses since the 2008 crash.
Rishi Sunak claims to understand people’s hardships, but his predecessor’s plan to lift the bonus cap remains in place.
1 in 3 children will go hungry this winter, but will nobody think of the bankers?

Inflation is simple to explain @RevRichardColes. It’s a measure of the increase in prices in a month compared to the previous year. It is high now as the impact of Putin’s war works through the economy. That war has lasted less than a year so far. A quick thread….. https://twitter.com/revrichardcoles/status/1592793257054187520

You couldn't make this up. Baddiel's "Jews Don't Count" for Ch4 is sponsored by Ford, the company that not only supplied the Nazis leading up to and during WW2 but was founded by Henry Ford, one of the world's most vile anti-Semites and friend of Hitler.

As Matt Hancock makes his lucrative move into light entertainment (while still drawing his generous salary and expenses as an MP), I keep remembering what happened under his watch as health secretary in 2020: https://twitter.com/troovus/status/1261626792764456960

Most fascinating thing about the Ukraine war is the sheer number of top strategic thinkers who warned for years that it was coming if we continued down the same path.
No-one listened to them and here we are.
Small compilation 🧵 of these warnings, from Kissinger to Mearsheimer.

And here we start with @graydesign talk on #darkpatterns
There is a tension between users, stakeholders and society. “Dark patterns are where the user value is supplanted in favor of shareholder value” (Gray et al. 2018)

@richardlock14 @GBNEWS Human rights are above politics and should be defended whether it makes some uncomfortable or not.HRs are more important than football, or any sport. Yes? The World Cup is grubbier now. Let’s face it, it’s been filthy for years. Thinking football matters more than humans lives.
Tax them!
