Another reason to boycott Amazon, as if we needed more. Yet people keep ignoring it because it’s convenient. Boycotting Harry Potter (especially for those who never liked it anyway) is easy, yet the same people watch The Rings of Power on Prime and shop on Amazon. Boycotts aren’t meant to be easy.

It’s almost 2yrs since the day Commissioner Catherine Holmes handed down her final report on Robodebt & referred those responsible for criminal prosecution. It was a day we felt like finally something was happening.
