Labour could tax the super-rich to end poverty, build social housing and fix our NHS.
They are choosing to go after the worst-off instead.
For a while, many people didnβt know what this government stood for. They do now: tough choices for the poor, endless money for war.
After all the Red Carpets, the ceremony itself, the after party & the after-after parties, nothing compares to the warm welcome upon my return home. π πΆ πΎ

Word of the day is βlickspittleβ (17th century): a person who fawns upon someone in power for personal gain.
Israel has chosen to mark the first days of Ramadan by blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza.
Still, our government refuses to implement sanctions and defend international law.
There is no other way of putting it: this is a resumption of genocide β and our government is complicit.
You can watch the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land β which no US distributor dares pick up because it documents Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestinians β on Britain's Ch4: www.channel4.com/programmes/n...
Fund welfare, not warfare.

The USA spends $2tn on Health Insurance.
$2tn that provides nothing except a barrier to their care.
They could cancel it tomorrow, halve their Healthcare costs and fire 940,000 useless people from their parasitic jobs.
What the government canβt afford:
βLifting children out of poverty
βDisability benefits
βCompensation for WASPI women
βWinter fuel allowance
What the government can afford: an extra Β£13.4 billion on the military.
Never any money for the poor. Always enough money for war.
What she said.
You first.
Word of the Day is βingordigiousnessβ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.
The government has announced it will pay for more weapons and bombs by cutting support for the world's poorest people.
A deplorable decision that will only create a more unstable and unequal world.
What is the government doing to bring about peace?
Since Labour took office, 10,000 more children have been plunged into poverty by the refusal to scrap the two-child benefit cap.
Increasing military spending while millions of children go hungry is not a tough decision. Itβs the wrong decision.

Israel is deploying tanks in the West Bank β and people ask us why weβre still marching?

The rise of the AfD, Elon Musk and Donald Trump, Nigel Farage and Reform, and every other Far Right party isn't 'organic' or a popular reaction.
It is due to unlimited, non stop support from the Far Right Billionaire Media, and the many idiots who will vote for blatant lies.

The Israel lobby does not want people to know there are actual humans in Gaza; that humans suffer under Israeli bombardment and occupation.
Shameful that Davie caved to the lobby
