Dog-whistle and factually incorrect. Ladies, raise your hand if you were sexually assaulted by a boy at school? I’d wager this or a family member is most women’s first experience of sexual violence

“Dutch people cycle an average of 2.6km each per day. If this pattern was replicated worldwide, annual carbon emissions would drop by 686 million tonnes.

This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Australia.” @euronews.com
Cycling like the Dutch would slash the world’s carbon footprint
If everybody cycled like the Dutch, we could offset the UK or Australia’s entire carbon footprint.

Wes Streeting is smearing and blaming Doctors for the current NHS crisis, yet he blasted the Tories from opposition for doing the same thing.

Some defend Streeting saying he has negotiated with Doctors and sorted out their pay dispute.

Here’s what Doctors think about Streeting and his solutions…

Our government tried to let racist, genocidal Israeli football hooligans rampage on Birmingham's streets.

They smeared those opposed to this as being driven by hatred of Jewish people.

Now listen to what the West Midlands Chief Constable told MPs.

What a scandal.

🚨This is a scandal! The government lost thousands of public responses to their railway consultation.

That means that if you want to end the private rolling stock ripoff, or cut fares, or end competition law in the railway, your voice was silenced.

Great response from my union about the appalling, racist targeting of primary schools. Fascists hate trade unions because they unite people and give us collective power. The hate teacher unions because they also defend our pupils ✊
NASUWT will not allow the spreading of misinformation and inciting violence to go unchecked - racism or bigotry of any kind must not be tolerated.

I see right-wing journalists are attacking me again over a wealth tax.

Here's a simple fact they never mention:

British billionaire wealth has more than DOUBLED since 2010

▪️2010: £250 Billion
▪️2025: £620 Billion

Yet workers' wages have been flat.

Tax extreme wealth, not workers!
