There it is. Leeds tram effectively cancelled again. No way this gets built now. Metro mayors are now lame ducks as London seizes back control over infrastructural projects. An absolute stagnation doom loop.

We have to break the power of big pharma and build a new model for the sector.
🚨 £3bn diverted from the #NHS budget to boost big pharma profits.
Thousands of patients will die every year because of this, but the government decided that was a price worth paying to please Donald Trump and big pharma.

This is a betrayal of NHS patients.
Big pharma & Donald Trump have got what they want.
In caving to these demand, the UK government has sacrificed the lives of thousands of patients in order to inflate pharma profits. Disgraceful.

The deal follows threats of tariffs as high as 100% on branded drug imports.

Had a great time at @sheffieldtransformed.org yesterday. Despite appalling weather every session I attended was rammed. There were around 150 people at my session on our Radical Abundance book. The crowd was engaged and enthusiastic. Great discussion as well.
