A lefty loner, tired at the injustices being carried out, plays a bit of guitar...
In the 1960s more than 40% of the money you spent went straight back to Government, everything spent on Water, Oil, Gas, Coal, Electricity, Social Housing, Telecoms, Steel, Ships...

Now it's less than 5%, and all that goes to billionaires Tax Havens

That's why there is no money

What is the point of student loans?

It's not to pay for Education, we managed perfectly fine without them for 50 years.

No it is a tax to stop you retiring early so you have to keep working and working for them, making them massive profits.

Oh I wish..
Nearly 40% of the land in the UK is held by Lords and individuals who have held it for over 500 years since they seized it without paying for it.

The French had the same problem, but they solved it in 1799 by having a Revolution and taking it all back.

'Who owns land is one of our oldest and darkest secrets... so I'm excited that the government have announced plans to open up the Land Registry'

Was great to speak with @mrjamesob.bsky.social yesterday about uncovering who owns England:

@mrjamesob.bsky.social on the subject on new towns, there's one near Dorchester called Poundsbury, that King Charles was involved in. A factory worker like myself would never, ever be able to afford to live there. That said, I wouldn't want to. It's a soulless awful place with zero community.

Utter scumbag.
Here is the key section of that train wreck of an interview by Robert Jenrick on #r4today.

Robinson: Did you raise it when you were Home Office minister?

Jenrick: We talked about it... I wasn't... My portfolio... But we talked about it.

Only a minute, if you can bear it. ~AA

After today's clinic with #TeamNHS - reading about labours plans for more privatisation is heartbreaking

It's quite simple really.
If you want the NHS to succeed, it's actually quite simple.

You invest directly in the NHS, fix NHS pay, and stop money flowing away into private practice.

True enough..
In an age of immense wealth they tell you there isn't enough.

In an age of climate catastrophe they tell you change is not possible.

In an age of deepening inequality they tell you there is no alternative.

In an age of war and profiteering from arms sales they tell you peace is impossible.

Fascism, simple as that.
A scoop in today's Guardian.

Trump appointees will only get FBI checks once he's in charge of the FBI & has installed his own people inside it.

This is on top of him refusing to sign the normal ethics pledge, allowing him to keep donors secret.

A recipe for national security risks & corruption

Word of the day is ‘hibernacle’ (18th century): a hibernating animal’s winter retreat.

I believe it works on a human level too.
