Nigel Farage seems confused about @greenparty.org.uk wealth tax.
It’s a tax on assets over £10 million - not “virtually everybody.”
The fact he thinks that will bother everyone exposes just how out of touch this millionaire mouthpiece for billionaire fossil fuel donors really is.

Thames Water have been fined £123 million due to their 'unacceptable' impact on the environment.
But as long as the profit motive remains, water companies will keep ripping off customers and polluting our water.
Time for water companies to be run for people, not profit.

The housing ombudsman for England has seen a 474% increase in complaints in the last five years due to poor quality social housing and lack of repairs.
Safe, warm, affordable homes are not too much to ask for.
Labour promised this. It's time to restore our social housing.

Farage came here recently - and it was important to correct the record.

I wrote for @huffpost.com on why the government's plans to slash welfare spending are a cruel, unnecessary choice. Time to start taxing wealth fairly instead of stripping away support from those who can least afford to lose it.

📈 The EU made more electricity from solar than coal last year.
💡 Renewables are the cheapest form of electricity generation, and with the UN warning of the dangers of increased fossil fuel use, now is the time to invest properly in renewable energy.
