This isn’t how the Library of Congress works. It’s a historical record of books for research purposes, there’s no kids checking out books.

Fascism requires controlling the historical record and purging titles that disagree with their narrative. They’re doing the same online.

Why the UK’s electricity costs are so high – and what can be done about it From nationalising gas plants to boosting renewables, how soaring prices could be tackled

This is *really* important: the reason electricity prices are high is the high cost of gas & that market rate is set by gas prices. One of the loudest calls at Everything Electric last week was to decouple from gas prices, so we benefit from cheaper renewables.

Would you rather a 2.5% tax on those with over Β£10 million that raises Β£130 billion or cuts on welfare payments that raise just Β£5 billion?

Diane Abbott is calling on the government to tax the super-rich rather than making disabled people pay with their lives. πŸ‘
