Robbie Gibb said if he doesn't get his way, he'll blow the BBC up. It's ridiculous that a man like that has a spot on the BBC's board. Our public broadcaster MUST be independent. Agree? Sign to get Gibb sacked:

My band , The Dead Seasons, have just released their debut album on vinyl and CD. Be great if you checked it out. We’re 80’s goth sounding. #Goth

If you look at the ridiculous case studies they dredged up & the desperate attempts to hang Reeves for ‘lying’ about the rationale behind a policy she *did not introduce*, you might work out why right-wing media is straining *not* to talk about the finer detail of her (unremarkable) budget.

The rich did not like the budget. So are we going to have months of the right wing media lead by The Mail, Telegraph and #BBCLaurak attacking it?

5 years since our debut album came out. To celebrate we’ve finally released it on vinyl & CD. If you like it goth this is for you. #goth

The path from abusing foreigners to abusing the disabled is well-trodden. I I hope this nugget is bright enough to reflect on who else has walked it.
Reform UK’s Lee Anderson wants to bring back the ‘invalid carriage’.

The Invacar was banned from English roads in 2003 over safety fears after some overturned and others caught fire.

Off the top of my head, there have been four egregious examples of weapons grade public racism in the last couple of weeks - Jenrick; the Express hack; Captain Concrete & the Reform woman. The way they are treated by employers, punters & wider media, will directly influence how much more we see.

Please wake up. This man is ruining this country. Stop him!!!
Farage’s plan to scrap indefinite leave could collapse the NHS…

Which would be incredibly good news for someone wanting us to move to an ‘insurance based system’

FYI the average American pays £480 per month for private healthcare

Please wake up folks.

The right makes it easy…

They hand people a scapegoat (migrants) and promise to make them disappear

Our govt could do the same

They could name the real culprits behind stagnant wages, unaffordable housing, and soaring bills

But they won’t

Because they haven’t got the balls.

Not one Al Jazeera journalist left…

All systematically murdered by a regime desperate to conceal the truth

And while many of their western counterparts and media figures (who are safe and salaried) choose silence and complicity.

The National Insurance Fund Account has a surplus of £86.4bn.

Plenty of resources to increase pensions, benefits, compensate the 1950s women.

Govts raided it to fund NIC cuts for the rich, NIC holidays in freeports, and general tax cuts for the rich.

It will probably come as no surprise to anyone that Nigel Farage has been called “unhinged” and “like a giant manbaby” after a tense meeting with US politicians

This is the direction of travel it would appear. How do we stop the rich and powerful with their hordes of devoted fans?
Incited by Farage & a significant swathe of the once ‘respectable’ right-wing media, we are already at the some men running wild point in this arc. And we are not controlling them early. We are giving air time & column inches to the people who egg them on & approve their crimes without any challenge
"In each civilization some men run wild. If we're lucky, we control them early. If not . . . ."

Hoo boy. I'm reading James Michener's 1963 novel Caravans. This scene, which takes place in 1946, is between a former Nazi and an American diplomat. The Nazi calls it. 🧵

We were born on a planet abundant enough for everyone to thrive…

But the rich and powerful carved it up, waged war on what they couldn’t own, called it scarcity

…and sold us the illusion that we must compete for crumbs.
