30 years ago today these children went to school in Dunblane, Scotland & never came home.
At the time Farage called the handgun ban that was brought in 'overkill' (there have been no such school shootings in the uk since).
This week farage is campaigning to restore the right to own handguns.
Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"
Social Security - "That's socialism!"
Debt free education - "That's socialism!"
Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"
$1 billion per day on a war in the Middle East that no one wants, while millions of people at home struggle.
"That's just how it is."
Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.

Children killed, a school turned into a graveyard: even in wartime, we can’t accept this | Gordon Brown
The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025.
The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets — more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
Still wondering if inequality is out of control?
Pretty sure that was George III's argument too.
If they get more people listening to and enjoying the music...?
Who do they represent? Themselves.
Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman missed NINE votes in Parliament last night, all because they had a more important Reform UK rally on the Isle of Wight.
They think they are too big to do their job.
Compare this thread to the Chilcot Checklist, produced after the invasion of Iraq to avoid another stupid war.
Nigel Farage told us Brexit would give
£3 billion more a year to our NHS
He now says Britain is so broke,
our NHS needs to be scrapped
replaced by US-style healthcare insurance
bankrupting thousands, leaving thousands more to die
He lied before
He hasn't apologised
He's still lying
Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.
That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.
The dealer needs to keep you addicted.
How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Time is running out to save the life of Sonny Burton, an Alabama man who didn’t kill anyone.
Tell Governor Ivey to commute his sentence before his scheduled execution date on March 12.
UNICEF’s James Elder :
“168 girls were killed in a school in Iran. When the killing of children doesn’t dominate the news politics, something fundamental has shifted…if a child can be killed and it doesn’t feel like a loss for all of us, then I think we’ve lost more than we realize”

We’re not out here because we want to be here.
We’re out here because we have to be here.
Thank you to the organizers who brought people together today, and to everyone who showed up in solidarity 💞
It's simple really, it's because he faced no real accountability for his actions.
The King is supposed to be visiting the USA *next month*. This is the definition of a diplomatic nightmare. In all seriousness, I would urge him to pull a sickie.
What a shameful exercise in performative religiosity and piety 😳
This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.
Fuck these assholes!
Churchill said that when one find’s oneself lost in a dark wood, keep walking. Jung said that at the bottom of every depression & there is always a bottom there, one will find a task, the addressing of which will take one’s life in a new direction.~James Hollis, The Broken Mirror
