I wouldn’t mind more tax for a better NHS but we’re more than aware that PFI healthcare isn’t good value for taxpayers money & entrenches our NHS further into privatisation - I never want to hear argument my Green Vote hands govt to Tories/Reform when this Labour govt enacts Neo-liberal Thatcherism

Tory, Labour, reform all pulling in the same direction and desperately trying to maintain ‘Thatcherism’ / ‘Neo-liberalism’ / the status quo … a pox on all their houses 👎🏼
MPs laughed when Jake Richards dismissed Jeremy Corbyn’s request for a meeting on the Palestine Action hunger strikers.
Laughed.
This is who we’re governed by, people entrusted to represent a nation, yet so insulated by power they respond to human suffering with indifference and mockery.

HURRAH! Petitions are crap at making gov'ts do things they don't want to. But they are good for two things: First, making them explain why they won't do something, but second (and more important) nudging/giving them permission to do something they DO want, but that's been crowded out bandwidth-wise.

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

Multiple incidents of alleged anti-semitism from the man leading the race to run the country = a load of nothing that should be completely ignored

For passengers, this means frozen fares next year, fewer delays, and a unified ticketing app without booking fees.
