The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population.

How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich?

They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

Thousands of Starbucks workers are on strike for a living wage and better working conditions. Stand with them by boycotting Starbucks until it can strike a fair contract. sbworkersunited.org

Zohran Mamdani has called for a boycott of Starbucks until the company can bargain a fair contract with its striking workers. We joined members of the mayor-elect's team on the Starbucks picket line in NYC.

"the ideas and the model of the Trump Administration" is fascism. And Europe has already been there done that, to its great regret.
Lutnick on his meetings with EU leaders: "The idea is, 'Come on guys, embrace the ideas and the model of the Trump administration and you'll get a trillion of investment here.' So we're trying to teach them, encourage them to follow the Trump lead."

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

I’m working on a draft today, and have just finished the conclusion when suddenly, the words start disappearing. Is it a virus? A hack? Nay. It is a dachshund.

Zohran's campaign was his determination to make New York a city everyone can afford to live in. Huge congratulations!

His success will resonate throughout the world. A story where no one is left behind.

It's time to write that story across England & Wales too.

It's brilliant and exciting to see Zohran Mamdani elected.
More leaders like him please, and fewer like Cuomo, Schumer and the rest of the oligarch-pleasing, hope-destroying, election-losing, right-centrist political class.

If you blame the crimes of British UK-born ethnic minorities on immigration, you're racist.

British Nationals aren't immigrants.
You can ONLY mean their ethnic origin.

The Huntingdon victims are still fighting for their lives in hospital & Matt Goodwin is using them for racism.

A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK...

78% are murdered by a partner/ex

Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this

Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety

In fact, they voted against them...
