'Three-quarters of people support a wealth tax – yet none of the establishment parties will touch it. So parts of the media close ranks when the vast wealth of their owners and the policies of their friends in Westminster come under threat.'

I've said repeatedly "I want Labour to be more worried about losing votes and seats to the Green Party than to Reform. That's how we start to shift decisions."

Time to make hope normal again.

A look at Nathan Gill and his treasonous activities following an almost accidental interview with Polly Weston in 2020.
Contains some typical Farage hogwash smoke and mirrors denials. I really don’t understand why this hasn’t dominated the headlines.

Former MEP Nathan Gill accepted Russia-linked bribes. Then he did this interview.

People keep arguing ‘well the polls say,’ whilst ignoring Reform have 5 MPs and are haemorrhaging councillors, whilst becoming more and more Tory.

Sigh. @thejeremyvine.bsky.social talking about bias on the BBC. The main bias is the over-representation of reform and the constant ignoring of reform negative stories and someone from reform on every news or current affairs show.

And who do they have on to discuss this? That idiot dorries.

Incredible that Robbie Gibb - most influential person on BBC board by many accounts and from journalists I speak in BBC - was involved in setting up GB News.

GB News of course has breached Ofcom rules on *multiple* occasions - no sign of resignations though

With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

There used to be a concrete post a long while ago but then someone noticed there was a gap between the modern support and the bottom of the entrance so they took it away. Apart from some repointing, there isn't any other "modern assistance" now.

Rural economies are fucked for reasons outside of this of course, and tinkering with exceptions on fuel duty, VED etc. is the kind of thinking that'll keep them fucked. We do need to look at active and public transport there too.

We are 🤏 close to having zero excuse not to have a universal basic income AND universal healthcare

It’s part of why they’re doing this, stomping the boot down.

We know too much, we can do too much, and it threatens their wallets.

& some REALLY don’t want to go to prison.

So am I glad that I didn’t drop like half a million dollars that I didn’t have, to go to medical school, devote 4 years, then 6-8 years of residencies, fellowships, and internships

Just to have care dictated by insurance companies & maybe go to jail for doing my actual job?

Yeah. But, this sucks.

Exactly

It’s systemic murder for profit

I’d had pregnancy complications that would have basically left me for dead in a parking lot, twice, if I weren’t in Illinois

Other states? Your doc goes to jail for treating you so you don’t die of sepsis

True that - there are some applications where it makes sense to call it an industry

I’m thinking more like, insurance companies like #UHC buying up doctor’s offices, dictating treatment, creating medical deserts
