Yep - neonazism & xenophobic isolationism have long been known to be economy-killers. Truly from outside looking in - your press is 100% the problem. It elevates people who don't have a following until it gets the following it wants them to have. All bc they're saying something outrageous.

Yesterday's budget was a step in the right direction, but financial secrecy in our own Overseas Territories continues to erode our tax base and enable crime.
We need to bring an end to dirty money flooding through places like the British Virgin Islands.

No, welfare spending is not 'out of control'.
(There is an underlying rise in health-related benfits, but this needs sensible reform - not knee jerk cuts.)

Extreme weather scientist @hayleyjfowler.bsky.social says fossil fuels will make 8 million UK homes at risk of flooding by 2050.
Heat will bring more UK wildfires. Healthy people can die within hours of extreme heat in eg. India.
Permanent crisis management avoided by urgent cuts of fossil fuels.

Good morning, while everyone is waiting for the budget to be announced it’s a good time to say that immigration is a source of prosperity for the UK and painting Britain as a hostile state is sabotaging the country. Thanks!

One thing with librarians is that they’re acutely aware of *who uses libraries* - many of us might go though our whole adult lives without setting foot in a library, but for people who are a little lost and need somewhere to be, they’re a lifeline.
