📍Euston Station 🕙 09:58 🗓️ April 8, 2025.
Only 2 of 17 ticket office windows are staffed.
If you award Avanti a big rail contract, shouldn't they employ enough staff to fulfil it?
We wonder what the local MP thinks?
What do you say Prime Minister?

Not content with addressing the German far right AfD party, Musk today addressed the Italian far right Lega party, led by the pro-Putin, anti-gay, anti-Islam Matteo Salvini.
Musk’s politics are pretty clear - and pretty dangerous.

I have heard from people in Gaza, and they are starving. There is a genuine fear too that this escalation is about taking the land forever.
I urget the gov't to recognise the state of Palestine because at some point it just won't exist anymore.

This Statement contains cruel attacks on disabled people.
The Government is taking the easy option of cutting support for millions of vulnerable people rather than making the wealthiest pay.
I’ll vote against these cuts to disability benefits. The government must drop them.

Disability benefit cuts will push over 250,000 people, including 50,000 children, into poverty.
So I asked the Chancellor — who earns over £150,000, accepted £7,500 in free clothes & took freebie tickets to see Sabrina Carpenter — if Austerity 2.0 is the "change" people voted for?

Welfare isn't unpopular, it is a system that we all have to rely on and everyone realises its value.
It's unpopular with the billionaire Media who hate every penny you get because it is one they don't.

As I told ITV, someone could need help cutting their food, washing themselves and going to the toilet — and still not qualify for PIP.
That's totally unacceptable.
The Government must drop this horrifying plan and instead tax extreme wealth, not target those in need.

Thames Water has been given a £3 billion bailout, paid for by you and me.
Why should households have to pay for the mess that Thames Water got itself into, just so execs and shareholders can protect their profits?
There is a better solution: take water into public ownership.

Health Secretary Wes Streeting has received £311,400 from private healthcare interests since entering Parliament.
Could that be reason he's such a fan of private involvement in our health service?
The Green Party is clear - private profit motive should be nowhere near the NHS.

Labour could tax the super-rich to end poverty, build social housing and fix our NHS.
They are choosing to go after the worst-off instead.
For a while, many people didn’t know what this government stood for. They do now: tough choices for the poor, endless money for war.

Why is it that "tough choices" are always about harming the poor and disabled, and never about making the very wealthiest pay their fair share?

Jeremy Corbyn: Keir Starmer says there's no money - I don't believe him
The government cites 'difficult choices' when they are harming the most vulnerable, but increasing defence spending is apparently easy.

Mick Lynch wants a progressive wealth tax with the richest paying the same as everyone else on PAYE, 47%.
That would bring in hundred of billions, it is time for the richest to pay what everyone else has been paying their whole lives.
