1) Politicians funded by corporate lobbyists support fossil fuel use, so that 2) we pollute the climate and don't invest in renewables, so that 3) compliant media write pieces saying don't worry, we've got stocks in the US(!). This is how we maintain energy insecurity.

NHS privatisation drive linked to rise in avoidable deaths, study suggests Outsourcing accelerated by Lansley's shakeup in 2012 linked to drop in care quality in landmark review
Hi hello what your article does not mention is that studies consistently show that private sector involvement in public health lead to poorer health outcomes and perhaps, as a novel idea, we should just adequately fund our public health system as a 101 requirement for a functioning democracy 🤔

Why did Donald Trump go to war with Iran?
For the same reason George W. Bush went to war with Iraq.
New research: "a permanent 1C increase in global temperature could reduce world GDP per capita by more than 20% in the long run, with some estimates approaching 30%." Even if it's half that bad, it's really bad...

Every cost cutting decision related to transport, health, energy and education that this government has made is going to cost everyone so much more than their supposed savings.
The war on Iran is unfolding alongside a wave of mass layoffs in the US. These are not separate crises. They are two sides of the same offensive by the ruling class against the working class.
It's genuinely shocking how quickly (some) scientists have flipped to using ai to do their literature reviews. We KNOW it's a disaster - this fairly extreme example is one of many. I'm not shocked that the journals let this stuff slip thru tho - they care only about💲

Wanker.
"AI is conscious and we should be working it to death! Put women back in the kitchen for the birthrate! Immigrants shouldn't have rights!"
Slaves. You want slaves.
“…it's grossly unfair that God-fearing businesses trying to make a living and generate export earnings should be deluged in tūtae.”

Shaggy’s greatest hit backup singer?
Puddles have more depth that this sorry bunch.
The CEO in him expects everyone to fall in line with his emphatic pronouncements.
You could see how flummoxed he was during the press conference when this didn’t happen.

The Equal Pay Amendment Act 2025 was a hatchet job on 180,000 workers and is representative of a political system that lacks the courage and foresight New Zealand urgently needs."
