Contact John Phillips (I can pass on details 😀)

YouTube video by Green Party of England & Wales Let's Make Hope Normal Again - Green Party Political Broadcast

Bringing back hope.

Leader Zack Polanski makes a powerful case for taxing wealth not work in the Green Party's new party political broadcast.

I think that is exactly the plan!

Israeli quadcopters shooting children.

And our government continues to materially supporting Israel every day.

Even as Israel rejects a two state solution, votes to fully annex the West Bank, and murders more doctors, nurses, journalists, children.

And our government continues to assist it.

When the arguing and anger stops what remains, for now, at least! St Ives to Zennor, astounding!

Oh but they have, we are talking about them again!

Sunset in South Shropshire, high on a hill and really very cold! At the highest point we found a St George’s cross flapping in the wind, unnerving the sheep, just as it unnerved us. Even a beautiful sunset can’t hide the current anger, hate and animosity.

Elon Musk openly called for violence on our streets yesterday.

I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric.

Britain must stand united against this clear attempt to undermine our democracy.

The scenes on our streets are shameful consequences of decades of austerity - government after government fanning the flames of anti migration instead of tackling inequality.

We can & must make different choices. Solidarity to all communities under attack. We stand together.

Following Farage’s announcement that he plans to make “serious cuts to the welfare budgets” if he wins the next election, I’ve seen this claim being repeated from last year’s headlines again.

So let’s take a look at the the reality rather than the weaponised version

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell.

Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass.

That, right there, is the problem.

It seems so far removed from the original alien and yet so similar I’m finding it quite disconcerting

The fabulous Alfie the #fosterBeagle needs a forever home!

Absolutely cracking little chap… if you’re in the UK & love #dogs, please share this post (and download and share the flyer to other social media outlets!)

West Wales coastal sunset. (Cool whilst the rest of the UK was melting)

Would the United States join Israel in their assault on Iran?

It’s the question that, before Saturday, everyone was asking.

But Donald Trump prides himself on his unpredictability.

Can game theory shed some light on why he plays his cards close to his chest?

Reform UK is proposing a "Britannia card" that would let wealthy foreigners pay a £250k fee to move to the UK, and live here exempt from all tax on their foreign assets

What they don't say: it would cost the UK £34bn

Corey Wiley on Twitter writes: "You don’t get it. Foundational immigration law is morally just and has been established over millennia. Disrespecting these rules and ideals is very offensive to folks who highly value civilized society"

Not true.

I see you're a luxury watch dealer. I'm also interested in watches. Let me show you how free and easy migration has allowed you to earn a living. 🧵

We’ve paid around the £500 per day without the need for a cherry picker. In the Welsh Marches.

Freshwater West but avoiding a fictional grave.

Pembrokeshire this afternoon, almost warm and always beautiful.

That’s exactly right - fossil gas sets the price of all electricity, even from the wind and sun - this is what I’m talking about when I argue for ‘breaking the link’ - it’s an absurd market mechanism that enriches generators at the expense of the whole country.

Oh that is absolutely brilliant, tell him we love it too.

Looks fabulous!

Happy Anniversary!

And outdoor bred just means they lived outside as piglets not for the rest of their lives. But still better than a lot!

It does seem that being a politician allows criminality to be disregarded at least in the eyes of commentators and journalists. Very worrying.

We took over the giant screen at Farage’s big rally in Birmingham

1. One of capitalism’s greatest successes is to shut down our imaginations. With the help of its favoured tools - neoliberalism and fascism - it persuades us that “there is no alternative”. Our first task is to re-ignite our moral imaginations and name our alternatives. 🧵

People who have an abundance of money (more than £10m) won’t have to give anything up if we have a tiny 2% wealth tax (just £200k on £10m) they won’t out on anything. But we could raise a shed load of money to spend on the stuff that needs it - hospitals, schools - even tanks and bombs.
