It's the neoliberal mindset, the system is fine and doesn't need changing, it just needs the right person in charge.

There. Is. No. Such. Thing.
Cattle ranching is among the most destructive of all the world's industries.
"Regenerative" cattle ranching is simply greenwash.

i’ve been speaking to some tech ceos and they say that young people don’t want pay rises or their own space - they want foosball tables and pizza once a month

Unfortunately, with this Labour government you really have to accept that they’re not here to do anything more than make tweaks to what was already there. We need something completely different and if you still believe that we don’t, we just need the right people in charge of the system, sorry, no.

Greta Thunberg, arriving back in Europe after her abduction by Israel in international waters, explains in 40 seconds why western governments are colluding in genocide:

It is a law as old as the hills:
Permit agents of the state to use violence against civilians to "maintain public order", and they will use it to advance private and particular interests.

National service = slavery

It's form of coercive wage slavery as it means people have to work for the state without the freedom to choose their employment or refuse to work

In 48 hours, over 200 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza.

Keir Starmer’s government still won’t condemn Israel or call it genocide. Won’t end arms sales. Won’t impose sanctions. Won’t stop trade.

This isn’t just complicity, it’s collaboration. They have blood on their hands.

Prisons are overcrowded. Just build more! More places means more people can be stuck in them. When they become overcrowded just build even more!

Or we could break this cycle by not imprisoning so many people in the first place. But that’s not as macho, not Reform enough for Labour.

As the UK and EU carve up fishing rights, I don't give a damn which party gets to trash our marine ecosystems by overexploiting fish populations, ripping up the seafloor and killing vast numbers of "non-target" animals. I just want this orgy of destruction to stop.

The problems in our society are not caused by migrants or refugees.

They are caused by an economic system rigged in favour of corporations and billionaires.

If the government wanted to improve people’s lives, it would tax the rich and build an economy that works for us all.

Aren't Musk and Thiel (and JD Vance and others) followers of something almost opposite to anarchism? A neo-monarchist, anti-eglitarian "philosophy" some people call Dark Enlightenment?

Face masks at protests: If not now, when? - Freedom News A proposed ban on wearing a face covering at a protest is an enormous challenge to protest organisers and human rights groups ~ Kevin Blowe ~ Labour’s new Policing and Crime Bill, currently under cons...

Labour’s decision to try and ban face coverings is based on an increasingly authoritarian stateβ€˜s understanding that masks represent one of the few remaining, readily available, and effective protections against the crackdown on protest rights.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but working isn’t the be all and end all and often if you fall into a good job great, but many people hate their jobs and it causes them to suffer mental and physically, and there is low level exploitation happening in all industries, this isn’t really being

Labour could tax the super-rich to end poverty, build social housing and fix our NHS.

They are choosing to go after the worst-off instead.

For a while, many people didn’t know what this government stood for. They do now: tough choices for the poor, endless money for war.

What makes this even weirder is that he was named by his father after a character called "Elon", who was the ruler of Mars in a science fiction novel written by Nazi party member Wernher von Braun.

Those who believe the Nazis were Socialists are also committed to the idea that urinal cakes are food.

Really weird questions. I'm not sure how they'll appeal to many potential Tory voters or even her 'base'.

As much as I dislike the system, given it's all we have at the moment I would like to see an opposition leader (even one I don't like) who's capable of holding the government to account.

Trump is capitalism in human form, stripped of its disguises. The violent seizure of other people's resources, the exploitation of other people's catastrophes, the predatory gleam in the psychopath's eye.

Hi Monica. Please can you continue to write your next book, and then when you've finished put my name on the cover instead of yours? You look sweet so I'm guessing you'll have no issues with doing this for free?
