Labour ministers met #FossilFuel industry lobbyists more than 500 times during the party’s first year in power, while Labour MPs took tens of thousands of pounds in donations from oil and gas lobbyists.

Albania’s anti-corruption prosecutors just froze the assets of a company tied to Jared Kushner’s controversial $4 billion resort project as part of a property fraud investigation Over the weekend, thousands of demonstrators marched through the capital under the banner “Albania Is Not for Sale”
A person at an Albania protest holds up a fan-made sign featuring Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z screaming alongside the words, “THIS IS OUR ALBANIAAAA!”

This regime cannot be trusted. Congress must pass an amendment to immediately freeze and permanently block the $1.8 billion slush fund for Trump's political allies. It should also block Trump's "settlement" granting him immunity from IRS audits. Call your reps: (202) 224-3121

I like BBC's latest #CliveMyrie promo 'the truth is out there'. Yeah it is, just not on the BBC. A headline about #Iran bombing Kuwait airport, but no mention of #Israel bombing & genociding #Gaza and #Lebanon day in day out. Obliterating 1000s yrs of history. Hypocrisy much?

£64bn is the cost of UK capitulation to pharmaceutical companies and Trump. Secret deal commits the NHS to pay higher price for new and existing drugs No debate in parliament. Govt can tax the rich, cut other services, let people die, start manufacturing drugs and become self-reliant.

Inside the £64bn pharma deal that could cost more lives than Covid
With the NHS on its knees, the UK has struck a secretive new drugs deal. But how was it made – and what will it really cost?

When oligarchs talk of “personal liberties and free markets” they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful. When oligarchs speak of “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability. Know the truth.

I always turn to #Georgetteheyer when I'm low. A real pickmeup. Resting my eyes after an operation, I was delighted to find most are available in audio on youtube with some fine narrators (if you can tolerate the frequent ads.) Bath Tangle is a sad omission. A favourite.

Judge Diane Goodstein placed a hold on DoJ’s request to turn over SC’s voter data. Then her million dollar home burned to the ground. Coincidence? I think not. Authorities are investigating this incident as possible arson.

#InspectorGerri - the police team dynamics are miserabke (more like a British drama). Too many women inexplicably falliing for the inspector's charms. He's not that gorgeous.Too much troubled gazing off to the horizon and not enough action and pace, but the location is beautiful.
