Old but still going. I’ve lost my winter fuel allowance but still got the bus pass. Could be worse.
Too Left for Labour. Too broke to donate to Individuals, only to reputable charities, so don’t ask.
It’s a bit lonely here.. . Looking for comrades✊🏼 🇵�

Considering the blatant genocide-enabling bias of the mainstream media, the Right-wing has really opened a can of worms now. You might think they'd be content with their existing advantage (money for influence over principles), but they always want more...

The government shutdown may last longer because of a fight over #hemp

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said he will not support speedy passage of a deal to reopen the government because of a provision that would make some THC products illegal.

Since January, Trump's Treasury has quietly gutted enforcement of the corporate alternative minimum tax — a huge boon for big business and wealthy investors.

Meanwhile, he's led an all-out assault on Medicaid, SNAP, and other programs that help the poor.

Reverse Robin Hood.

In October’s election, Cameroon’s 92-year-old president, Paul Biya, retained his four-decade-long grip on power.

Electoral fraud and repression trap Cameroon in a system inherited from colonization, designed to serve foreign interests and a small elite.

Many Americans are hurting right now because of the shutdown, but caving to Republicans won’t end the hurt.

Trump and his lapdogs continue to assert that they alone have the power to slash whatever programs they don’t like.

Deals with this regime are meaningless.

Having met Lowe, he comes across as an arrogant, entitled, and none too bright fellow. A privately educated, ex banker, who kills birds as a hobby, and who now spends most of his time stirring up hatred and division online whilst cos-playing as a man of the people. Truly repellent.

Lowe, like Farage, deeply confuses me.

Born into immense wealth, privately educated and then worked in city banking, he is the very definition of establishment elite; why would any normal person see him as a man of the people?

Our entire political conversation - under a labour government - has taken a huge shift to the right.

We can't let this be normalised.
