Finally read Animal Farm in 2020, helping my daughter with her schoolwork at home during the pandemic. I screamed in frustration and anger. Brexit, Farage, Johnson, Trump, the Conservatives, the Republicans, how people are brainwashed. Orwell was warning us. Ban the bible and read Orwell.

Intellectually destroyed him.

Someone was ranting on in the city centre about the Disabled People and the immigrants robbing everyone.
I said, "Don't you think it's actually the people with all the money robbing you, moron."
Everybody cheered.

NO cruel cuts to benefits
The Government is planning “catastrophic” cuts that experts say will force disabled people into poverty. Don’t think that’s right? Add your name now.

Are you still relaxed about it holding your medical data?

ICE Just Paid Palantir Tens of Millions for ‘Complete Target Analysis of Known Populations’
The records show that Palantir is actively working on the technical infrastructure underpinning the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts which could soon impact U.S. citizens.

Health Secretary Wes Streeting has received £311,400 from private healthcare interests since entering Parliament.
Could that be reason he's such a fan of private involvement in our health service?
The Green Party is clear - private profit motive should be nowhere near the NHS.

Labour could tax the super-rich to end poverty, build social housing and fix our NHS.
They are choosing to go after the worst-off instead.
For a while, many people didn’t know what this government stood for. They do now: tough choices for the poor, endless money for war.
