Lefty cycling football fan; keen to #AbolishTheMonarchy and build a fairer society that is OK with sweary words. I will try not to mock you but your ideas deserve no such protection (sensitive theists you have been warned).

Billionaires shouldn't exist, especially in a society where so many can't even meet their basic needs.

I understand why Biden pardoned Hunter, it's his kid, but it is a deeply sad day, this goes to normalise behaviours common with Trump that most good people find abhorrent. 😞

I've had to drive a bit recently. Broken coccyx & being poorly has limited cycling & use of public transport.
Two observations:
1. Never when driving have I stopped at a high street to shop. Always do walking/cycling.
2. Segregated cycle lanes are great for drivers. Why do people complain?

This must not be forgotten, today anyone under 30 only ever remembers a failing NHS.
The NHS was ranked #1 in the world before the Tories ramped up austerity and privitisation.
The model works for the people, but big business hates it because it puts people before profit.
The NHS needs staff and funding, not more cuts and more privitisation

Watching a bit of Children in Need and it reminds me that there are some things that local charities can do for society that a government never can. That however doesn’t include feeding the hungry. Food banks are a shame on this country.

Council Tax is so screwed that the £45m mansion in Westminster pays only £1,946, while the £0.375m house in Rutland pays £2,481.
