the original #startrek & #starwars are so unsubtle in their "wokeness" that i can only think the "fans" whining about it now are just fucking morons who didn't understand any of the not very subtle subtext or words of the creators.

Richest 1% has more wealth than 70% of UK population combined.

Top 20% own two-thirds of wealth, receive 36% of income.

Bottom 20% own 0.5% of wealth, receive 9% of income.

Can't grow economy or have social stability.

Poverty is political choice. Which political party wants to address this?

The government must ensure fair distribution of income

'The average real wage of workers has hardly moved from the 2008 level whilst bosses never had it so good.'

the @thetimes.com totally missing the point again... WHY is it the #ukgovernments fault that cybercrime is so easy against british business? MAYBE it's because tossers like you did nothing as jobs have been offshored & business prioritised short term profits rather than invest in talent!!

Some good news.

London is meeting legal limits for toxic NO2 pollution for the first time – almost 200 years earlier than predicted – following the Mayor’s "world leading air pollution policies," City Hall announces.

The Ultra Low Emissions Zone - and similar policies - really do work.

"you can't get a job in IT? go do something else!"

"i've spent £10,000s on training and 10,000 of hours on learning" - why the fuck should I?!! As the Govt & business sends all the jobs offshore graduates are fighting for bar & barista jobs ! we're in a recession
