Budget 2025
One lesso: organise, inform, campaign, protest.
UK Govt wasted 18 months, condemned millions of children to poverty. Today govt announced end of the two child benefit cap.
7 MPs had Labour whip withdrawn for opposing the cap. For 18 months Ministers defended the stupid policy.

I listened to this conversation the other day, and it's *brilliant*.
In a time that can often seem very dark, we're seeing stirrings that give real hope for another way of doing politics, based on integrity and people power: Mamdani in New York and the UK Greens being among the best examples.

There is no accurate reporting, anywhere in the world, on how many people are dying due to climate breakdown.
Researching this week's column, I stumbled across something that amazed me:
the near-absence of reliable data about climate impacts over most of the
world. Due to the rich world's failure to fund research. We don't know
because our governments don't care. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
