I’m old enough to remember when Thatcher & the right wing media labelled Nelson Mandela a terrorist and got all aerated when this was on TOTP.

Right wing loonies … always on the wrong side of history (and humanity.

Who has decided that Disabled People are too expensive?

It is Rupert Murdoch, Lord Rothermere and the other billionaires who only want people who they can profit from.

That is who.

The choice could not be any clearer.

Do you push 700,000 people into poverty by cutting lifeline benefits?

Or do you get a grip on the extreme wealth being hoarded in this country?

This IS a choice, and the Government knows it.
Cuts to public services and welfare are wrong – and unnecessary.

The government could tax extreme wealth and close loopholes instead.

How to raise £60 billion for public services: our ten tax reforms
The UK’s super-rich have accumulated record levels of wealth in recent years, while our public services have been decimated and inequality has soared.

As a disabled person, I am so worried about what is to come. All those years living with Tory austerity and when we finally get a Labour government, they let us down even further.

And if you're not working, Keir Starmer wants it to be clear:

Labour is reshaping the state to be even more insecure & hostile for disabled people.

A total lack of compassion, humanity - at the same time refusing to even talk about the inequality which is breaking our country.

'Balancing the books' on the backs of poor and disabled people was wrong when the Tories did it, and it would be wrong now.

It’s a political choice - one that could push 700,000 households into poverty.

Our government should instead tax the ballooning wealth of the super-rich.

Surely these exception circumstances (US turning traitor) means Rachel Reeves can relax her fiscal rules slightly. Add a flipping tax on wealth and let’s up our support to Ukraine!

Only the richest 4% of people pay Inheritance Tax.

Only the richest 1.5% of farmers will pay HALF Inheritance Tax spread over 10 years.

This is a protest funded by the obscenely wealthy who want to pay no tax at all.

Yes to all of this!
We need a "Big Reset Party".

Key policies:

- Begin rejoin negotiations with EU

- Introduce PR

- Nationalise water

- Leveson 2 or similar press regulation

- Drastically limit donations to individual politicians and to parties

- End 2nd jobs for MPs

We'd be in a MUCH better place afterwards.
