The way welfare dependent people are treated in this country should ring alarm bells in anyone, regardless of work or wealth status.
NEW: I have obtained, under FOI, a secret Department report that initially recommended the Targeted Compliance Framework - aka, the unlawful "mutual obligations" scheme

Bill Gates and Bjorn Lomborg bear a really substantial chunk of responsibility for supplying this line to every climate-delaying pro-fossil government around the world

It’s time for all decent people to bully those who speak publicly about their bets to hell. Fuck all of them, I hate this shit so much

I try to stay behind a few layers of snark and insincerity on here because I'm not really a fan of being my true self online, but I need to be honest here: There's very few things I hate more than being the only person in my family with conflict resolution skills despite being the youngest child.
