The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population.
How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich?
They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

I really wish we'd stop calling them climate "skeptics" or "vaccine skeptics", if you jump off a cliff we don't call you a "gravity skeptic"

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law.
This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

Sign the petition asking the Government to finally end peat compost sales with legislation in 2026 - no more delays. It’s been a long and tiring road to get peat compost banned and we need your signatures and shares now more than ever to get it done. actnow.peatfreepartnership.org.uk/end-peat-sal...

No more delays: Let's get peat out of gardens once and for all. The time for uncertainty has ended.

The Guardian are reporting a significant increase in Jewish people voting for the Green Party.
It's almost like many of us grew up learning a history of persecution & violence.
We don't oppose the Genocide in spite of being Jewish but because of it.
Never again for everyone.

So many people in the current government are a disappointment because so many expected better. One of the few who isn’t, because her politics were already so obvious, is the Home Secretary. The main difference is her job and the power that comes with it. Utterly grim and leading to nowhere good.
