FUN FACT: The top 50 richest families in the UK now hold more wealth than the poorest HALF of the population.
Keir Starmer should stop targeting immigrants and introduce a wealth tax on the 1%.

So that's now two (at least) big Labour figures - Tom Watson and Peter Mandelson - taking money from Palantir to help it sink its teeth further into the NHS.

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in.
The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers.
This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

● Jaguar Land Rover adds £10bn annually to the UK economy
● Employs 11,000 people in the UK
● Creates thousands more jobs in supply chain reliant on it
● And Grandad Nigel wants them to go bust because he doesn't like the ads.
Why do YOU think he doesn't like them?

The great patriot doesn’t like the new Jaguar advert, so he hopes they go bust. What a horrid man.

As the ICC finally issues arrest warrants for Israel’s leaders, here’s a promise.
To those who helped facilitate Israel’s genocide - Western politicians, media outlets, and journalists:
We will not rest until you are held accountable for the crime you helped commit.

How privatisation works (and Thames Water is just the latest example).
1. A government takes a national asset built up with taxpayers' money and the work of public servants over many years, and hands it, for a fraction of its value, to a private company.
2. In doing so, it creates a monopoly.

We deserve a free media who hold the powerful to account on behalf of the people. Instead we have a degenerate media suppressing the people on behalf of the powerful. #Leveson2
