Leaving the ECHR would allow the State Pension, the Minimum Wage, Sick Pay, Maternity Pay, Paid Holiday and working hour limits to all be abolished.

They would make hundreds of billions from this.

That is what they want.

Shocking 14% rise in homelessness in England.

354,000 people homeless, includes 161,500 children - equivalent to city the size of Coventry.

Result of austerity, real wage/benefit cuts, unchecked profiteering.

Govts make slogans do nothing to end inequities.

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

Remember the outrage when Israel first targeted hospitals in Gaza?

Now, the last hospital in northern Gaza is destroyed, babies are freezing to death & the WHO Director-General narrowly survived an attack in Yemen.

This genocide is fuelled by UK arms sales & Western support.

It’s impossible to talk about the year without talking about Gaza. In it we see the moral collapse of the west; we witness how people we once respected became lost in denial & deflection; we feel our unbearable powerlessness to effect change. All assessments of 2024 start & end in this tragedy.
