Here's a 🎶 twist on Coldplay's thumping #VivaLaVida we're calling "Puppets on a Kremlin String?"
It reflects on the grotesque media spectacle hosted by #Trump & #Vance yesterday at the White House. In solidarity with Zelensky & Ukraine.

Minimum Income Requirements leave families ripped apart, often with huge impacts on children. It makes falling in love and having a family a "pay to play" system, and causes so much harm. They are an unjust "tax on love" and devastate lives. MIR needs to be scrapped.

The organisation which just deposed Assad is a proscribed terrorist group linked to Al-Qaeda. Parts of Syria are being bombed back to the stone age, the whole country risks descending into civil war, but sure, let's try and get rid of people seeking safety.

Super excited to see Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit tonight. Must be getting towards double figures now and every concert has been a gem. Music which embraces the glory and brokenness of being human and ends up life-affirming and hopeful as well. He plays a mean guitar as well.
