1. I've been banging on about the existential crisis facing our food system for years. But don't take it from me. Take it from the food professionals now risking their careers in an urgent and devastating warning to their own industry. Key quotes from their memo in 🧵 drive.google.com/file/d/1tATF...

Authoritarianism progressively worsens, but there are hinge points, moments where the necessary reach of cruelty can be met with focused resistance.

We’re in one of those moments. We can band together, take collective action, and change the paradigm. The consequences of not doing it are immense.

🚨Tell Wes Streeting - Palantir out of our NHS!

Palantir enables Israel’s genocide and apartheid against Palestinians, yet it’s been given a HUGE contract to create a platform to manage NHS patient data.

Vandalizing and setting fire to Teslas is antithetical:

Insurance payouts to Tesla, showrooms, and private insurers cover replacements for totaled cars.

This will drive new Tesla sales, so Elon Musk will profit twice.

1. You feel powerless? Don’t know what you can do to resist the rise of fascism?
Here is an answer: Good Things.
Fascism inflicts pain and harm as a matter of doctrine.
Kindness, care and conviviality defend us from it.
The more we build community, the less it can take root.

In all the blaming, let's not forget Aileen Cannon. Save some disgust for her turning an open-and-shut criminal case into a farce for which we're all paying the price.

In case any missed it, there's to be a debate in parliament on the 24th March regarding potentially (nothing is definite!) holding another referendum on rejoining.

SNP MP calls for Trump state visit to be scrapped.

Others should support.

Unhinged felon must not be honoured. 34 felony convictions in New York alone. Dodged prison because his billionaire pals helped him win election.

Risk of mass social disorder, if the visit goes ahead.

A second state visit cannot go ahead if the US president does not show further support for Ukraine, Stephen Gethins says.
