If you are watching the King's Speech remember that he is worth £21bn gets hundreds of millions a year tax free.

But he still charges Wind Farms to rent worthless seabed that he 'owns'.

The result £200m a year to him and you pay it on your Energy Bill.

The woman who manages the world’s most complex logistics operation is tired of seeing her home melt. She votes for the only party with a serious plan for our planet & communities.

Good to see Santa finally getting on board, even if he’s a few seasons late to the party. 😆

Amazing!! Women Help Women (womenhelp.org) is manufacturing their own abortion pills in order to make abortion safer, simpler and more accessible across borders. They designed an eco-friendly combi-pack that's easier to mail discreetly and centred around women’s experiences and needs.

🇪🇺 The Green Party is clear: we should be repairing our relationship with the EU and undoing the damage of Brexit.

That's why yesterday Green MPs voted in favour of re-joining the Customs Union - as a vital first step.

The Government sees it as a “moral duty” to cut disability benefits.

I see it as a moral duty to call them ableist pieces of shit who want to kill disabled people.

The real moral duty should be to end poverty and tax the rich

A shocking week in all.
Starmer lied about the manifesto promises he broke.
Peter Kyle lied about Labour breaking the manifesto promise on unfair dismissal.
Rachel Reeves lied about the whole basis of her budget - there is no black hole. And she didn't touch the City and Banks at all.
Shameful.

The Labour Government refused a 1% asset tax on the super rich, yet raised taxes on people already struggling.

All whilst their "black hole" turned out to be utter nonsense.

Active choices to refuse to fund our communities which they desperately need.

UK energy bill payers to hand £2bn a year in subsidies to EDF, owned by the French govt, for building two nuclear power stations.

That will come handy in keeping energy prices down in France, improving govt finances.

Dividends won't be taxed in the UK.

All because UK govts oppose public ownership

Relentless media attacks.
Relentless political & legislative pressure.
Endless wealth keeping the pressure up.
The police won't take the hate seriously.
Neither will the courts.
Almost impossible to access healthcare.
