The rich would prefer you to believe that the "free market" is subject to the immutable law of supply and demand. But for years, the wealthy and powerful have manipulated the market for their own gain. There is nothing “free” about it. Watch.

I want my country back. By that, I mean a country where I would be confident that a thug who livestreamed himself stabbing an RNLI dingy on an active operation would a) Be universally condemned b) Be swiftly arrested, put on trial and if found guilty, face many years in jail. I miss that country.

#PalantirOut - and let's close the revolving door between politics and industry while we are at it. "Watson, who was a key political ally and fixer for Gordon Brown, remains close to many senior Labour figures." www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Palantir hires Tom Watson to fight left-wing campaign against US firm
The tech giant, which holds several public sector contracts, hopes that hiring the former Labour deputy leader will buy it a hearing in the Burnham government

The wisdom of crowds: "When describing the economy as broken, most put its condition down to poor political priorities" As Green Party has long been saying: it is DESIGNED so a few profit and the rest of us pay www.newstatesman.com/politics/bur...

Pubs and hotels could see business rates reformed after review. One-dimensional review. Why no review of rents, energy, water bills? Many chains owned by private equity, extracting cash via low wages, low investment, selling assets, profit shifting, tax abuse.

The review of how rates are calculated in England and Wales could lead to reform of the system.

A very apt post on the day we see our seventh PM in ten years. Back in 2013 Thomas Piketty had within his thesis on inequality, the conclusion that an absence of a wealth tax would inevitably lead to political turmoil.

If your curious about the source of this story - they quote a tweet from 2018! And yes like the majority of Brits have huge concern about horses welfare and the Grand National. Our campaign launch was about housing & rent controls. Can't imagine why the Sun won't report that.

This is a lie. There's no evidence that tens of thousands of Iranians were killed by the regime earlier this year. This claim has been repeatedly promoted to support a war by fanatics who threatened to destroy Iran altogether.

I’m so glad that I’ve seen this. I always thought that the figures of 70,000 dead in Gaza after two & a half years of levelling the place, with zero journalists, didn’t add up. Yet 40,000 dead Iranians in a month or so? Noted that Emma Murphy of the BBC was an actually in Tehran yesterday.
