Farage earns more than any other MP for NOT being an MP. He says it’s “obviously sad” that part of his constituency is the most deprived area in England.
But everything he’s ever done, said and wanted has made sure of it.
This is the whole country if he gets into power.

When Big Oil companies claim to be partners in climate solutions, remember: they are lying.

As the climate crisis intensifies, Chevron is once again "increasing investments in oil and gas exploration," Reuters reports.

The America First guy has brought in 566 foreign workers during his 5 years in office to work at his companies instead of hiring Americans. And counting.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

It’s fascinating comparing the front page coverage of the Huntingdon train attack (below) with how the British press treated another case 30 years ago.

I’m referring to the 1995 Netto supermarket attack in Birmingham in which a man stabbed 10 people, killing one of them.

Are they the same young people whose freedom of movement & Erasmus scheme he stole? Who inherit a fucked economy? Whose retirement age is disappearing down a black hole? Who have to pay through the nose for a Uni education? Who can’t afford a home?
And now they need their pay cut too?!

Food is too expensive, controlled by billionaires.

Wages are too low, controlled by billionaires.

I'm going to blame... immigrants.

Nobody had even heard of Katie Lam outside of Westminster until about two weeks ago.

Literally all it takes to be considered "brilliant" and a "rising star" on the right of British politics now is just a willingness to say something slightly more racist than all of your competitors

The energy bill write off con.

Fuel poverty rising, debt £4.4bn. Ofgem says £500m could be written off.

It would be added to the bills of other customers. Energy companies made £514bn operating profit since 2020.

No cut in their profit. Debt would be rebuilt

Nationalise energy. End profiteering
Thousands on benefits could have energy debt cancelled by Ofgem
Regulator Ofgem plans to cut £500m from the stack of customer debt - but other billpayers will cover the cost.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

What this story also shows: ‘it is not just the heat. It is inequality – who has access to shelter, healthcare, money and social support – that often determines who lives and who dies.’
