Listening to Aggie Chambre and Natasha Clarke, week in and week out, trying to scrape some positives from the worst performances at the dispatch box we’ve ever witnessed is becoming nauseating. Perhaps this polish might help 🤡

“You’ve woken up on this Monday morning…

“You’ve called up a show

And you have spoken out in support of someone found liable for sexual assault, a felon, an insurrectionist”

“This is who you are now.”

…and this goes for every single one of you Trump supporters

Own it.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.

“When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.”

UK median wage is £29,664. Real wage lower than in 2008.

17.8m adults have income below £12,570; rely upon benefits/charity.

3.12m people use foodbanks.

PM Starmer says he will "ruthlessly" cut public spending;

Can't get economic growth without redistribution

Labour hasn’t delivered growth or happiness. It needs an economic reset.

Shocked to find out yesterday that after a long fight by union members, Sainsbury’s has only just agreed that all their employees can be paid a living wage.
This is when economists are saying supermarkets are the only retail outlets that are doing well financially.

Supermarkets are a huge problem.

They force farmers to sell to them at rock bottom prices, while hiking up prices for all us at the other end to astronomical levels.

While supermarket profits soar, you know we’re just being pitched against one another by the rich again #r4today
