Well, I for one am an economist who supports rent controls! Here’s why 🧵: Markets only work well if: -buyers & sellers have roughly equal power -producers respond to price signals & expand supply in response to scarcity -buyers can walk away if prices get too high

We've been doing "let's scrap [benefit] to fund [promised future public service] for close to two decades now, and while we have succeeded in scrapping benefits we do not seem to have funded any more public services. And somehow we still don't have any money.

honestly this is fucking incredible 'we cant give a decent state pension to ppl because it will be unfair on young ppl who will have to pay for it [wrong]. instead we should get younger ppl to subsidise businesses by paying more so they can act like theyre giving discounts to pensioners'

‘Decent centre right’ here means “someone who is still violently bigoted but does so in a way that is civil and quiet enough that it doesn’t impact me”. These centrists will not protect us. They will leave us to be sacrificed for their comfortable status quo.

This is what happens if you put hundreds of millions of pounds into border security in northern France. It pushes people further round the coastline, so they have to make longer, more perilous journeys and land further round the British coastline. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I've known this dude for 20 years. One of the first friends I made in Bristol, he taught me what it means to be an antifascist. If there's dinner, he's cooking, if there's a benefit gig, he's flyposting, and if there's fash, he's first in, last out. I have literally bled alongside this man.

His case is part of a much wider trend, where asylum seekers have become a key target for far-right terrorists I revealed earlier this year that a quarter of the terror attacks in Britain over the past decade have targeted Muslims or small boat migrants inews.co.uk/news/uk-terr...?

Macklemore just announced he’s donating the $1 million he made from Sheeran’s tour to 6 organizations to support Palestinians and he’s asking Robert Kraft to match it. This is just the first part announcing it.
With everything that has happened over the last 48 hours, I want to bring the conversation back to where it belongs: to the Palestinian people who are still being killed, still living under military occupation, and still fighting for their freedom.
I will be donating the entire $1 million of my net earnings from Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour to six organizations working directly to support the Palestinian people. And I invite Robert Kraft to match my donation. Whatever we disagree about, perhaps we can agree on this: Palestinian lives are worth protecting. A Palestinian life is no less valuable than any other life on this earth.

kudos to macklemore here for —right off the bat— the perspective and acknowledgment of who the real victims are
I'm not sure how to start this. So I'm going to speak from the heart and share the truth. Ed Sheeran and his team have made the decision to remove me from The Loop tour.

But before I get into it, I want to say something that should be obvious. In this moment I think it matters. I am not a victim. Ed Sheeran is not a victim. Pink is not a victim. We have careers, money, opportunities, safety and audiences around the world. Whatever consequences any of us face for what we say, we get to go home to our families.

The victims are the Palestinian people. The men, women and children who have been killed, starved, displaced and forced to live through unimaginable violence. More than 20,000 children have been killed in Gaza alone. People are being killed today, and people will be killed tomorrow. I want to make sure that as I tell this story, we don't lose sight of that.
