Denmark has a new king, the King and Queen get approximately $500,000 from the Danish Government a year, and the whole family is worth $40m.
In the UK King Charles gets $150,000,000 a year and his family is worth $25bn.
We need to be more like Denmark.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.

I remember learning about the Holocaust at school + being in disbelief that human beings could let this happen.
But let's look at today:
Genocide in Gaza
Trump demonizing vulnerable minority groups
Farage whipping up hate + racism in the UK
Musk fueling right wing extremism
When will we learn?

If only Louise Haigh had repeatedly kicked her partner…
Or been arrested for numerous sexual assault charges
Or been found to have frequently bullied her staff
Then maybe she’d still be in her position.
