Here’s my message to our health secretary: The era of politicians ignoring health experts is over. Put your big boy pants on and go meet with the BMA and RCN and end the staff haemorrhage crisis once and for all.

Deploy Alternative Refrigerants
Deploy Alternative Refrigerants is a Highly Recommended climate solution. Many refrigerants are potent greenhouse gases. Alternatives exist that contribute far less to climate change.

News report on ai replacing creative jobs on the local news. Not the slightest mention of the data theft or environmental damage driving it. Just arseholes making money off it and the unemployment of talented artists.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

Hey UK Labour government! Is this really who we want running our NHS data management systems?
Holy smokes! If you acted like Palantir CEO Alex Karp in a corporate meeting, they would report you to HR. Just saying.

Last year saw a record amount of post-Brexit Irish passport applications in the UK last year, with almost a quarter of a million people living in the UK applying. It's clear that the public want freedom of movement - it's time for the Government to take action.

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Renewables routinely generate more than half of U.K electricity.

They also generate thousands of jobs, reduce our exposure to volatile gas prices, and allow us to stick two fingers up to fossil-fueled dictators.

Leadership is knowing the way, showing the way, AND going the way…🇬🇧♻️⚡️👷👩‍🔧

That elephant in the room that destroys the UK economy is still there, still causing damage and isn't going away any time soon. Brexit was, is and always will be a catastrophe.
Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study explains it:

a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.

Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

The difficult truth is that there is a clear national security element to social media information flows. It can't all be viewed through the single lens of free speech. Disinformation sabotage is a hostile act intended to destablise our societies. Our societies need appropriate protection.
