As someone who has been trying to move from one job to another basically all year, the issue is not that there are too many people NOT seeking work.

The issue is that all the jobs are scams because the economy is stagnant.

And it is stagnant because of wealth consolidation at the top.

The last thing people with MH issues need when they go to their GP for help is to be badgered to get back to work. More needless cruelty from Labour. This will put people off going to their GP for help. What a ridiculous policy.

Can only speak for myself, but think I'm not unusual, by the time you see a GP about mental health issues, you are at crisis point - finding it hard to get out of bed, eat, speak to anyone, deal with finances etc - but sure, tell me about the jobs I can apply for at that moment.

"The Green Party had a particularly strong conference season under Polanski... with a bold platform of nationalisation of major utilities, a wealth tax and stronger environmental policy."

The amount of players who've pulled out their international teams with injuries that are expected to last exactly as long as the international break, what a coincidence 😂

Thirty years ago, a peace-loving Austrian theologian spoke to Peter Thiel about the apocalyptic theories of Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt. They’ve been a road map for the billionaire ever since.

I'd actually forgotten how extraordinary it is that when I won the leadership - I wasn't interviewed as it was too close to our party conference interviewed.

And then refused a second time!

Part of the antidote to all of this is creating our own media platforms.

BBC accused of 'extraordinary' anti-Green bias after party say the Laura Kuenssberg Show scrapped a promised interview with @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Sunday.

Green sources say the show also refused to interview Polanski after he was elected as leader last month

Wirtz hasn't been anywhere near as bad as some people making out. We need to start converting the chances he's creating.

21 - Most chances created for Premier League clubs in all competitions this season:

21 - Florian Wirtz
21 - Jack Grealish
18 - Bryan Mbeumo
17 - Bruno Fernandes
16 - 5 players

Agenda.

But anyway, absolutely no to making real videos look bad for no apparent reason

Eternal Dannation @eternaldannation.bsky.social · 4d

What is this trend of putting a weird filter on real videos to make them look like AI, with that odd sort of 'sheen' they have? I don't get it. Is it that they can't get rid of it on AI so they're adding it to real videos to help AI videos blend in? That's my theory anyways.

The international break is a chance for some players to mentally reset from club football, for others to build fitness or recover from injuries. Hopefully everyone comes back fit and healthy.

Eternal Dannation @eternaldannation.bsky.social · 4d

Should've put Fede on. Putting Endo on has done nothing for us with Gakpo wasting attack after attack

Eternal Dannation @eternaldannation.bsky.social · 4d

Would've put Chiesa on for Gakpo as he looks dead on his feet

Eternal Dannation @eternaldannation.bsky.social · 4d

Endo? I was hoping for Chiesa. Damn.

So far Taylor has failed to issue a yellow to Chelsea players for a high tackle, a dive and a cynical pullback to stop a counter attack
