"It's not refugees who drive down wages & hike up rents. It's greedy bosses & wealthy landlords"

The Minister for Homelessness is a landlord - and she just evicted her tenants, tried to charge them >ยฃ2,000 in illegal fees, then re-listed the property weeks later for ยฃ700 more.

The same Minister who claims to fight for rentersโ€™ rights.

You couldnโ€™t make it up.

Starmer asked to explain why recognition of Palestinian statehood is conditional.

Starmer asked to explain why recognition of Palestinian statehood is conditional.

Because he doesn't believe Palestinian lives are equal to Israeli lives.

Because he's totally lost his humanity in his bubble where he sees peoples lives as bargaining chips.

And because the man is devoid of all principles and compassion.

Next question.

The air drop dropped 25 tons of humanitarian aid over Gaza.

Thatโ€™s less than a truckload.

Thousands of truckloads are needed.

There are thousands of trucks ready to go in. They are not being *allowed* in.

The answer is not to drop from the sky. Itโ€™s to open the gates.

We don't have to push children into poverty.

We don't have to make life harder for the sick and disabled.

We don't have to aid and abet genocide.

For too long, people have been denied a real political choice. Not anymore.

Keir Starmer is appointing a former Sun editor to a top government comms role, while watering down the Hillsborough Law.

Bootlicking the Murdoch press, betraying the people of Liverpool and insulting every campaigner for justice.

Water privatisation has been a complete & utter failure.

It is absurd that the government's report into the water industry didn't even consider public ownership.

That's not a report. That's a political broadcast for the private sector.

Put water back into public hands, now.

Migrants at a Miami immigration jail were shackled with their hands tied behind their backs and made to kneel to eat food from styrofoam plates โ€œlike dogsโ€, according to a report published on Monday into conditions at three overcrowded south Florida facilities.

The incident at the downtown federal detention center is one of a succession of alleged abuses at Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (Ice) operated jails in the state since January, chronicled by advocacy groups Human Rights Watch, Americans for Immigrant Justice, and Sanctuary of the South from interviews with detainees.
