Getting increasingly saddened and angry by the nonsense nationalism display of flags at every motorway bridge and lamppost. Why are they not being removed? #gammon #rightwing #offensive.
I refuse to believe we as a society are not better than this.

Labour have to ditch Tory policies and stop aping the Reform agenda because it simply validates their ideas!
They have to start talking about the catastrophic consequences of Farage’s Brexit, taxing wealth, abandon disability benefit cuts & tackle the media

Hey British media,
It’s no surprise that if you give Farage the run of the place, he’ll start winning.
Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

Canada is potentially about to elect a Prime Minister with a PhD in economics from Oxford, Mexico elected someone with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering…
Meanwhile, America elected a barely sentient orange turnip.
Any Questions?!

This is really interesting as the article says there is more to it but it seems undeniable that investment in people and services makes a difference. Who knew.

The share of income going to the top 1% in the UK has been rising since 1980. The richest 50 families in the UK own as much as 50% of the population. But Starmer is not taxing the rich, he's punishing the sick and disabled. Thatcher would be proud of him.

The Scale of Economic Inequality in the UK - Equality Trust
The UK has very high inequality of income compared to other developed countries. The UK's wealth inequality is much more severe than income inequality.
