How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.
🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Over the past week, Russia has attacked our country thousands of times – the enemy used nearly 1,750 attack drones, 1,530 guided aerial bombs, and 39 missiles against our people.
Zelensky should tell Trump FU for asking for UKR's drone technology b/c Trump has cut off US military aid to UKR, humiliated Zelensky in the WH, said UKR started the war against Russia, said Putin wants peace, & has told Putin in Alaska, "I will help you".
The King is supposed to be visiting the USA *next month*. This is the definition of a diplomatic nightmare. In all seriousness, I would urge him to pull a sickie.
My secret life as a cat.
The irony is physically painful.
The wealth of the richest 0.00001%.
The multi-billionaires.
It's outrageous.

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.
We need safe and legal routes for refugees.
George Monbiot explains what’s often missing in the debate about asylum seekers and refugees: "My worry is that we end up talking about what's good for us and forget about what's good for people."
Amos Goldberg, Professor of Genocide Studies at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem "Yes, it is genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion. Jewish history will henceforth be stained"
Is there anyone more qualified and unbiased?
Can you do me a quick favour today? ✍️
The government is finally asking if they should ban cages for hens in the UK. 🐔🐔 Lobbyists are trying to block it, so we need huge numbers to show them that the public wants this ban NOW: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...
Picture of Keir Starmer and Donald Trump with headline "Trump's just chosen Britain's next Prime Minister - he's proven Keir Starmer is finished"
The Express. Openly supporting a foreign power trying to subvert our democracy.

Credit unions help people access fair, ethical finance. But an outdated law is holding them back.

Average real wage of UK workers barely moved since 2008.
Some bosses collect 1,110 times the average worker pay.
50 families have more wealth than bottom 50% of the population combined.
Super-rich buy political parties and lawmakers to advance their interests.
Did you vote for the above?
All of this is the truth.
Something liar Johnson cares absolutely nothing about.
The worst British PM ever, especially during a pandemic.
Fxxk off with your blither, you nasty Bullingdon bore.
Putin must have some amazing compromat on Trump. This is his get out of jail free card in the Ukraine war.
Labour just announced energy price cap dropped.
Oil just spiked, completely undoing that.
Given 50% of UK energy is from renewables, now is the time to renationalise and drop the dumbass marginal price system that makes green energy needlessly as expensive as gas.
#DirtyBusiness exposed the human cost of profit before public health.
Our water system won’t be fixed with tinkering. It needs public ownership.
I’ve asked my MP to attend the MP drop-in on 17th March & hear that message directly from sewage campaigners: actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...
Impeachment, conviction, and removal only work when Congress has a spine.
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

Most of the media is demanding that everybody supports the war effort. Well, sod that. This is an illegal conflict, launched by a decrepit American to distract from his domestic problems, which has already killed hundreds of women and children. I didn’t back the Iraq war in 2003. Nor this one!

Almost nobody in the media reported on the former Tory Government's sweeping power grab of the electoral commission. This week Labour have announced that they will reverse what Boris Johnson did and return the commission to independence.
Ofcourse Labour will get absolutely no credit for doing this
