Wes Streeting orders review of mental health diagnoses as benefit claims soar.

Is the aim to help people or squeeze them?

Poverty causes insecurity, anxiety.

Need equitable distribution of income; better housing, healthcare, education, support services, progressive taxation.

Hillary Clinton thinks social media is brainwashing people against Israel.

The truth?

Western media outlets covered up Israel's crimes - and the only way to get the unvarnished truth was to use social media.

The majority of the UK’s richest are happy to live here & pay their taxes.

But what about the greedy few that use the UK to get rich, then bail when it's time to pay their dues?

The UK needs a settling up tax, just like 🇺🇸 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇳🇱 🇨🇦 🇦🇺 🇪🇸 🇮🇹 🇳🇴 🇯🇵.

Banning refugees – people whose asylum claims have been processed by a hostile system and found to be legitimate – from bringing family members has one predictable and awful effect: instead of travelling alone, men will bring their wives and children on small boats, and some will drown.
