The right wing love to say that people should live within their means yet don't take the same approach to the planet we live on.

Stronger economy When will people understand that we live on a planet of finite resources so this constant push for growth isn't sustainable and we are nowhere near at the point of mining the moon or asteroids.

So, Gary has a 1/3rd stake in a business he helped to expand into what it is now and gets a share of £5 million due to his work rather than have it given to him as a gift (farage) and the torygraph thinks that's a story? www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

As for Eritrea The large humanitarian emigration is the result of several decades of war and a government that is considered to be among the most repressive in the world. Eritreans are conscripted into government service for years on end and are generally barred from leaving the country legally

including internally displaced people (IDPs), asylum seekers and refugees. This conflict exacerbated many of Sudan’s existing challenges, including ongoing conflicts, disease outbreaks, economic and political instability and climate emergencies.

Yup Sudan, On April 15th, 2023, violent clashes erupted between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan, resulting in the displacement of nearly 13 million people,

The Russian young people don't want to kill or be killed they want a future. The american young in their military don't want to be bombing Iran (after Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and many others) they to want a future. Stop pandering to the rich elite, fight them not each other.

The normal working class people of all countries just want to live in peace, have a home, have enough food, believe in a better world for their children. Unfortunately those in power and their backers in the media don't seem to want that as there is lots of money made from war.

Protection from poverty? Protection from hunger? Protection from ill health and disease? Sorry no, they are secondary (or in a lot of cases lower) protections as the first is protection from other countries people. Sorry but I have visited many countries and never felt threatened by its people.

Ady whitwell @adywhitwell.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
So virtually every country is now spending money (it doesn't really have) arming itself to the teeth instead of looking after its citizens. Yes I know a lot will say that the first duty of a government is the protection of its citizens but protection from what?

Ady whitwell @adywhitwell.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
Still relevant today. Why do people go out to kill and be killed just to keep rich people in power?

However, tax avoidance and tax evasion costs us £7.9 billion a year. Thats not the whole story as the gap anually between tax owed and tax payed is a staggering £59.2 billion. Yup someone isn't paying their fair share and its not the workers as its difficult to avoid PAYE. Anyone got an accountant?

Ady whitwell @adywhitwell.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Can we please stop blaming refugees and asylum seekers for the problems in the uk. Both of those groups coat the uk about £5.4 billion a year (yes that sounds dreadful and a hell of a lot of money unless your name is musk in which case its small change)
