How will the government fund scrapping the two child benefit cap? Talks about the fact it's important to remember public finances are not like household finances.
Isn't it refreshing when someone actually does nuance and detail?
H/t @andyverity.bsky.social at the BBC!
Okay, here we go.
Health & care staff are no longer allowed a Covid booster, but they're still expected to look after COVID+ patients.
NHS/govt is reneging on its duty of care. Staff will become unwell, and patients too will suffer.
You know what to do

Zack Polanskis insane economics
The country wants a wealth tax on assets.
They're panicking because "won't the rich just leave" has been utterly debunked.
They've got no actual argument.

... but didn't mention their decision to use private finance to fund them ๐ง
Why? Are they ashamed of their plan to resurrect the corpse of PFI in our NHS? They should be. #AutumnBudget
THE BRITISH PUBLIC IS NOT BEING TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THEIR LAND
Across the UK, vast swathes of countryside, farmland, national parks, green spaces, digital infrastructure, and even local democratic powers are being reorganised into free zones.

Anyone else disappointed this morning to see the name Karol Sikora resurfacing in the papers?
The disinformation he pumped out at the height of the pandemic was gleefully taken up by covidiots in authority.
So grateful for all the work Independent SAGE put in to keep me informed + safe
Anyone reporting on this @theguardian.com @financialtimes.com @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social @the-independent.com and if not why not.
I see plenty of Ukraine faithful reporting
The MSM is so complicit in this genocide.
www.middleeasteye.net/news/israel-...
Six pro-Palestine prisoners are on hunger strike across UK prisons.
Their demands: the right to a fair trial, freedom from censorship, and the deproscription of Palestine Action.
Theyโre being punished for standing against genocide.
Their struggle is one of conscience โ and solidarity. ๐ต๐ธ
โVoters still have a moral compass even if Labour have lost theirsโ
Donโt be conned in to tactical voting. Politics is changing and we can make sure that happens.

Hello Halifax and nearby
I'll be on at the @VicTheatre on Nov 26, telling the story of the death of my son and my experience of being in a coma for 40 days, as a way of talking with humour and thought about recovery, survival and mortality.
Join me?

It is the time of year when I get more boring than usual, to remind you there exists a global online Masters degree in economics with live webinars solidly based on #MMT and a respect for our planetary boundaries

What Zack actually said was Putin giving up nuclear weapons was "extremely unlikely".
But he emphasised that we should always be working towards a nuke free world and often many things seem impossible until they are achieved.
But has anyone in this Labour government ever cared about the truth?
Arrested for a placard containing the words 'Palestine' and 'action', albeit not adjacent to each other. Action taken is to give him a warning. We appear to have a new transgression of minor terrorism! He is a brave man for wanting his day in court. I hope this exposes the proscription as stupid.

In 30years I have never been this upset with the words coming out of Government
This includes a plethora of Tory Health Secretaries
I am not part of BMA leadership
