I love footballball but FIFA and Fascism is simply not worth it. I will not go to America or watch the games on Telly. I will #boycottTheWorldCup money makers.

The system is falling apart - the extreme wealthy, the 1% are literally buying up all the capital assets.
Wealth Tax is the only solution. Redistribution. Capitalism does work, but occasionally it needs a serious correction.

1. The European Parliamentโ€™s attempt to ban plant-based foods from being sold as โ€œsausagesโ€, โ€œburgersโ€ etc is a direct response to livestock industry lobbying. This is a short thread on how utterly bleeding ridiculous it is. ๐Ÿงต1/6

Another one for Labour to remove as Rates Capping has never worked. Just look at Australia

The only way to keep rates down is for Central Government to fully fund services and infrastructure

But that wont suit their donor mates now will it

Rachel Reeves says on Laura Kuenssberg that she's asking working people to pay a little bit more.

This was all under the cover of a made up "black hole" whilst refusing to tax the super rich.

This Labour Government showing again exactly who they are and who they serve.

We now have an unprecedented level of income & wealth inequality.

It isnโ€™t acceptable that the top 1% owns more wealth than the bottom 93%, while a majority of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

We must stand together & create an economy that works for all, not just the few.

4 waters, even necessarily tweaked, made sooooo much sense. But no, National Act campaigned against it, singularly for political advantage. Cynical fkwits.

Walmart and McDonaldโ€™s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year โ€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M โ€” 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

One of the dimmer lights, Mathew Hooton calls to lift the Super age. Heโ€™s never worked as a hammer hand, a builder, a plumber, a checkout operator, a cleaner, etc ..jobs which slowly break the body down,has he.
Wealth Tax !
Fund Public services by accessing the trillions of $ held by the very few.

UK Budget โ€“ The End of Democracy?

This really is brilliant analysis from Gary Stevenson on the utter cop out that is Labour Govts Budget. Some elegant sound economics from him, again.

Willow trees on Prince Williamโ€™s land in Devon poisoned with herbicide Exclusive: Unknown culprit suspected of spraying glyphosate on protected trees hoped to stop peat erosion and flooding

There are some people who seem to see the recovery of ecosystems in a deforested waste as a personal affront. It's about power, and different landscapes reflect the different ways in which power is distributed - or concentrated.
