Since people find being hopeful and optimistic so cringe these days, let me remind you once again that there isn’t a single liberation movement in the world that wasn’t built on hope and optimism.

Don’t buy anything today. ✊

Read a book. Rest as much as you can.

(Write a list of things to buy later.)

If you shop in a charity shop, every day is Black Friday. You can also get gift vouchers for charity shops which is a lovely sustainable and ethical present choice.

Good morning and on this 'Blue Friday.'

If you are able, please do buy your books from bricks and mortar bookshops or: Bookshop.org.uk

They pay all their taxes and don't waste money on phallic space dreams.

You know what? The #BlackFriday sales will continue. Let's not buy anything today, shall we? Nor on #CyberMonday. We have the whole weekend.

And, I sincerely hope that every single person complaining on here about billionaires doesn't just put more money into their pockets. We have this power. 💪

If Labour can’t answer that, then this isn’t a strategy.
It’s an inherited slogan (remember David Cameron's tens of thousands goal — and a shrinking vision of Britain.

What does a smaller number actually achieve?
How does it make the country fairer, stronger, or more prosperous?

#Labour is embracing a #littleEngland mentality — and they don’t even seem to know why, or even care.
Reducing #netmigration is treated as if it were self-explanatory.

What worries me even more is to think: what is the destination if this is 'a step in the right direction'? Where does he think (or want) to be going
Fewer workers. Fewer international students. More people leaving.

A "step in the right direction" according to the PM.

Impossible to take PM/govt seriously on growth if they are deliberately reducing it (and making the fiscal position worse) *as a matter of policy*.
