Teslaβs profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024.
Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion.
American capitalism is off the rails.
Nigel Farage, who has so far registered a total of Β£280,500 for four hours a month as a "brand ambassador" for a company selling gold bars, thinks a Β£10 an hour minimum wage for young people is too high bylinetimes.com/2025/11/03/n...

Today Nigel Farage said the government should cut the minimum wage for young people
...to βraise aspirationβ and βboost business"

The party who claim to be patriots literally had a Reform leadership member caught red handed taking bribes from Russia.
This article details the speeches Nathan Gill gave that he was paid to give.
How are Reform getting away with this?

These unconscionable cuts to a vital lifeline fund for some of the most vulnerable children & young adults in England are staggering - a 60% reduction from Β£7.5K to just Β£3K per child
and even worse - these changes were introduced without consultation, warning and no evidence base
All of The Green Party MPs voted to keep the rights that Nigel Farage wants to take away from you.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

Itβs about priorities.

He's doubling premiums for 20 million Americans.
Now, he's refusing to use a $5 billion emergency SNAP fund to keep 16 million kids from going hungry.
But the 1% keep $1 trillion in tax breaks.
Oligarchy in action.
An elected MP, Reformβs Sarah Pochin says there are too many Black and Asian people on TV - so plain racism - and the coverage of it is buried. Silence and ignorance is complicity, causing lasting damage. When we see racism itβs what we do next, individually and collectively, that matters.

No. Corporate tax breaks do not trickle down to workers. Never have. Never will.

$170B for ICE and Border Patrol
$40B for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation"
$200M for Kristi Noem's jets
$98M for Trump's golf outings
But no money to lower your healthcare costs.
I have written to Lisa Nandy, following her grossly misleading comments over the Maccabi Tel Aviv ban.
This is about a group of fans with a history of racism and violence. It is not about banning Jewish people - and any attempt to conflate the two is shameful.
The Department of Homeland Security just spent over $170M in taxpayer funds to buy Kristi Noem two luxury Gulfstream jets.
Meanwhile, Trump's shutdown is threatening the paychecks and SNAP benefits of millions of Americans.
"New Golden Age" for who?
Zahira apologized - she could not offer me tea as her house had been destroyed earlier this month. I apologized to her that the world failed her. #Gaza

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M
