Billionaires in the UK:
1990: 15
2025: 156
While our communities struggle to keep the heating on, theyβve increased their wealth tenfold.
Don't blame your neighbour for a crisis created by the top 1%.

This is a good moment for Europe & UK to remember that they can stick up wind and solar, insulates houses, far quicker than they can find new gas in e.g. North Sea
If you're chasing more gas, it's now a case of which unreliable regime you prefer to depend on

Bahahahahaha!

Oh, how sad for him π€£
If only there was a way to vote for more renewables and less oil and gas ....
If only there were energy sources that didn't rely on foreign-owned oil and gas!
Did you know UK's National Gas is owned by an Australian Bank. Let's hope they have our best interests at heart in the oncoming energy shortages. Read the Canary's report and be alarmed, very alarmed.

The unprecedented two state visits certainly didnt pay off, did they? Massaging a bully's ego is not brave or wise.
Top 5 Reform UK #IWD Gifts for Women in 2026:

4. Biological reality checks for girls (whatever that means) π¬
5. Farage telling female journos to write silly stories β€οΈ
Average real wage of UK workers barely moved since 2008.
Some bosses collect 1,110 times the average worker pay.
50 families have more wealth than bottom 50% of the population combined.
Super-rich buy political parties and lawmakers to advance their interests.
Did you vote for the above?
Every Labour MP should read this important blog from @barristersecret.bsky.social

As Prem Sikka says, we urgently need to end privatisation of our Welfare State. Indeed, a hint is in the word 'State'. It should be 100% in the public domain.
What on earth does this 'Labour' Government think it's doing? Get rid of privatisation of our public services for FFS!
BPβs new CEO to take home Β£11.7m this year, more than double her predecessor.
Daily pay > annual median pay of UK employee.
CEO pay at one company is a benchmark for another. Others will want more.
Govts, BOE, CBI and other neoliberals talk about wage inflation, but silence on fat-cattery.
Collateral damage should NEVER acceptable.
This is horrifying
That's a good point. By bringing back Grammar Schools, you also bring back Not Grammar Schools.
This is superb, as ever from @bbcrosatkins.bsky.social who should be in charge of political content in the BBC.
Head and shoulders above all domestic political commentators.
Unemotional fact based unpeeling of bullshit
A vibrant outdoor mural painted on the side of "Clarkes of Sussex The Art Shop." The shop sign above features a rainbow-colored paint drip design. The mural itself is predominantly yellow with repeating text in the background reading "UNITY LOVE HOPE." Large, stylized letters in the foreground read "WE ARE TOGETHER" in blue and pink, followed by "LOVE HOPE UNITY" in large block letters across the bottom in blue, pink, and yellow.
WE ARE TOGETHER π«Ά
Help us show the country that we stand together against division on 28 March by joining us in Central London.
From Brighton to Bala, letβs make it known we stand united.
You know itβs bad for MAGA when far-right podcaster Nick Fuentes is done with Trump β and even willing to support a Democrat.
This 2020 Trump speech is going viral.
Sun headline about Β£500k compensation for migrants, discussing human rights, and public outcry over payouts.
Did you see this headline?
Did you feel the requisite anger and rage at asylum seekers that The Sun was asking of you?
Did you maybe blame Starmer because.... um... it was probably his faultπ€·ββοΈ
Would you like to know the reality behind the headline?
Course you would!π
Let's take a look

This is what happens when oligarchs control the *news*
This flew under the radar, but Trump's DOJ has abandoned its legal assault on the law firms that courageously refused to bend the knee to him.
This should serve as a reminder for the firms that sucked up to Trump: appeasing a tyrant will get you nowhere.
If itβs true Reform UKβs Treasury spokesperson Robert Jenrick told a business audience last night that renewable companies are "screwed" if Reform get in, it tells you everything about their readiness to inflict national self-harm in pursuit of ideological war on climate action.
Reform accepted Β£200,000 donation, via a British Virgin Islands shell company belonging to a guy who works for a secretive Kazakstan-born billionaire
And is supported by the far right GB News, which is owned by the Dubai-based investment fund Legatum, and the Dubai-based billionaire Paul Marshall
Is it time to panic buy petrol yet? How I miss the good old days ....
Right now UK is pretty much running the electrical grid on renewables and Nuclear.
@elliechowns.bsky.social : "In 2020 Starmer said he did not think the UK should enter into military action without a legal justification, without a clear goal & without parliamentary approval. None of those conditions are in place now. Indeed, it is an illegal war led by a war criminal"
