1. This short thread is about the issue that dominates almost every aspect of politics, and causes or exacerbates most of our problems: the extreme wealth of a small number of people. Here’s the amazing thing: almost the entire political class aligns with the ultra-rich against the rest. 🧵1/10

This is a very worthwhile 11 minute briefing on what's happening in North East Syria / Rojava, why it deserves to be MUCH MORE in the news and much higher on the UK Govt's priorities -- from @carneross.bsky.social, former British diplomat & former @greenparty.org.uk Foreign Affairs spokesperson.
What's happening in Syria right now matters to all of us. A women-led democracy is being destroyed; ISIS prisoners are being let loose. My video explainer on what's going on - feel free to share - youtu.be/Huh8cbZ6EjQ
Syria - Why it matters, to all of us - RIGHT NOW!

You know you should be working on Marketing, not features.
You build new features anyway because (a) it's fun and (b) you know how.
Whereas the business usually needs you to learn marketing and get another customer today.

Put down the compiler until you learn why they’re not buying
Technical founders, step away from the code. Gather insights from non-buyers, rather than just adding more features.

Farage went to a party when he sent his deputy to lie for him and say he was under the weather.
He was hobnobbing with the locusts who want to strip our assets and profit from the sale of the NHS.
If you believe his excuse for messing up his reported earnings you're a gullible simpleton.

Farage lied when he said he was too ill to appear for the BBC interview on Sunday.
The Heartland Institute, whose party he attended instead, doesn't believe in tobacco harms, climate change and seeks the dismantling of the NHS.
Be warned. If you care

Labour are low in the polls and hard on the country.
Fair play to whichever special advisor has written Keir a bit of a snarky line. Maybe Keir could take that energy to Trump on the warpath or the billionaire bosses ruining this country?

Sometimes doing the right thing is just doing the right thing. Fair play to you Ireland. Looks at British government (and yes my own party) with disappointment. Thousands of child sexual abuse images exist online now thanks to X. Thousands of abusive images of women too. But hey. Clicks, AMIRIGHT?
It's hilarious. The right thing isn't always deep. It's called leading by example. There's plenty to criticise the government for but this is a very obvious one.
What Micheál Martin describes as a "kneekjerk reaction", the rest of us just call "doing stuff"
