I am a hillwalker, wild camper, and dog owner who loves folk horror films and 1970s/80s British TV. I am also a socialist, community educator, and environmentalist.
This cause is close to my heart - please sign: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/un...
Did you know only 8% of England’s countryside has a right of public access? And only 3% of our rivers?
Sign this petition from @Right2Roam calling for access reform this election. We shouldn’t be shut out of our own country, or risk being told off for going for a swim! We need access for everyone.

I regret not calling myself working class
We emerged with posher accents and a belief we would automatically out-perform our parents financially (which never quite panned out). The working-class label didn’t quite seem to fit

Trump is not unique, merely a product of a US political and economic Capitalist - Neoliberal empire that has its exploitative tentacles deep into every country and government globally. The 'Class war' is real, it is happening and we are unprepared!

Congratulations to the senior Tories who, having been told this for a mere 60 years, and staunchly denied it throughout, have finally twigged that it might not be a brilliant idea to have a nuclear deterrent which can be switched off by another state.

Reports say the Treasury is "earmarking billions in welfare cuts”.
This is Austerity 2.0 & it will worsen record levels of poverty.
Why is there always money for war, but never for the poor?
Instead of slashing the safety net, the Labour government needs to tax the super-rich.

Science fiction or science fact? Let's hope that Trump's Uber Neoliberal Gilead will crumble under a tidal wave of global humanitarian compassion. The world is awakening, we are coming together.
