Someone said to me, "If it's nationalised we get all the money."

"And if it is privatised we get hardly any."

The penny is dropping.

Just in case no one knows the UK doesn't have a record number of people on benefits, in fact we have higher employment than France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Finland and many more.

It's all just a lie for the billionaires to blame poor people for their mess.

Two major events today to make the difference between Labour and the Tories.

1) The Bibby Stockholm has been towed away after Labour said last year it would not renew the lease for this year

2) Legislation was presented to Parliament (1st reading) which will repeal the Safety of Rwanada Act 2024.

It’s all beginning to feel a bit 1984. We’re in a battle against autocrats and oligarchs who are using money and misinformation to dismantle democracies. That’s why we’re looking for 1,984 new monthly supporters to make our biggest and boldest plans a reality (see link in bio)

WARNING: Have you started to notice "pay by bank app" options at online check-outs. If so it's quicke & easier but be aware there's LITTLE PROTECTION

It's on the likes of Just Eat & Ryanair. You don't give card details, just pick ur bank, and log into the app (via biometrics) then its done. /contd

ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe.

That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US.

This is the second verified incident I've heard about.

We were here 1st.

More than 100.000 people in Germany 🇩🇪 in the streets today, like here in Berlin, protesting the rise of far right politics, like the AfD nazi party promoted by Elon Musk.

Oh and Zuckerberg is removing Meta fact checkers

Why? “To protect free speech”. FACTS AND FREE SPEECH ARE NOT THE SAME.

They’re removing access to objective truth and reality. To create chaos. This’ll open the doors to unprecedented foreign interference/bots.

The broligarchy is well underway.

Literally all they had to do was calmly condemn Musk’s dishonest & inciteful attack on their parliamentary colleague, Jess Phillips. And they couldn’t even manage that. Absolutely shameful.
