Tell Keir Starmer: Stop Rosebank This is the moment that activists across the UK have been building towards: it's decision time for the UK government. Oil giant Equinor has just resubmitted a new application for Rosebank - the bigges...

🌍💰MAKE THEM PAY - Today! 20 Sep - Support from home 🌍💰


There are currently 2,769 billionaires in the world, and their ever-growing concentration of wealth is enabled by a monopolistic concentration of power and influence.

🏡🚀 See the thread for crafty way to join the XR bloc from home...

The NHS is crumbling, schools are underfunded, energy bills keep rising – & billionaires keep getting richer

It’s time to put an end to this catastrophic inequality

It’s time to tax the super-rich & use the money to fund the services we all depend on. It's time to #MakeThemPay

Today we’re at the #MakeThemPay demonstration in London to demand that those responsible for climate breakdown and rising inequality pay up.

While polluting corporations and billionaires are allowed to destroy our planet, ordinary people are made to live with the consequences.

AXA: From Cameron LNG fuelling the global trade in fracked shale gas, to Drax power station with its devastating ecological footprint, to arms giant Leonardo, & oil giant OMV, AXA is using customers’ premiums to profit from businesses involved in genocide, destruction & climate chaos.
🧵3/3

AIG: From Maersk shipping military equipment to Israel, to BHP Billiton (caused Brazil’s worst environmental disaster), to BP supplying oil for Israel’s war machine, to Rolls-Royce & Leonardo creating military machinery, AIG’s finance is allowing these companies to profit from destruction.
