Motability FACTS:
- you ONLY get access to the scheme if you receive the mobility component of PIP.
- claiming the mobility component of PIP is extremely difficult, many people with mobility issues don't get it.
- Motability cars cost a significant portion of claimants PIP Mobility payments.

Billy Bragg explains why he's supporting The Green Party
"To get to a place where we have affordable housing, affordable energy, affordable transport - we need a new settlement between the British people and Westminster"

this is the cost of jingoism and militarism, too many "socialists" and trade unions support this shit, all the money that goes to war has a cost in human suffering and lives both domestically from cuts to fund it and overseas when that spending seeks to justify itself, depravity at every stage.
£73 Billion for "defence"

Since the govt supports seizing the assets of a Russian billionaire and redistributing the money to help the people of Ukraine, how about seizing the assets of other billionaires and using that cash to help us? We could start with the tax dodger Jim Ratcliffe.

Labour ministers blaming bad advice for their own terrible decisions yet again, one might ask why they keep taking such bad advice but we all know that they only advice these people take is from donors who have the same vested interests as most of these corrupt politicians.
Yvette Cooper is asked why she banned Palestine Action
"I followed the clear advice.. which was very clear about the recommendation for proscription of this group.. you have to take really seriously advice you are given.."
This is clearly the line she's going with.
