Starmer has broken yet another promise – maintaining his perfect betrayal record – by abandoning his pledge to scrap the hateful & cruel Universal Credit system through which the Tories have inflicted years of misery https://bit.ly/3CxvmXZ

The British Pound lost 20.9% of its value globally as a result of the Brexit Frauderendum result. Currently €1.13 per £.
Half our food is imported.
So what you used to be able to buy for £1 now costs £1.21
That's why UK has worse inflation than others.

If there was a 'Labour antisemitism crisis', why did the evidence for it have to be manufactured? (Updated.)

The NHS pay review body IS NOT INDEPENDENT.
Rishi Sunak doesn't care about patients on NON strike days: the days where we have 1,000 excess deaths EVERY WEEK.
Great thread, particularly if you want to understand why the Western financiers don't like China

In 1916, Lenin called imperialism the highest stage of capitalism.
In 1965, Kwame Nkrumah said that neocolonialism is the last stage of imperialism.
Both are obsolete. Since 1990, we’ve been in a new, even higher stage.

“The anti-strike law won't improve public safety – it will put the public at risk. It’s going to drive even more staff out of frontline services.”

Always good to keep debunking the myths that keep cropping up.

The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, not as a moral standard, but as a social contract.
If someone does not abide by the contract, then they are not covered by it.
In other words: The intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance.
Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated.

When they use the word ‘productivity’ to describe essential healthcare, you know the Tories don’t see us or those working within the NHS as people. https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1612424975750668289
