The more we discover, the worse it gets. Now we learn the water companies wrote the guidance ensuring sewage sludge is not tested for the vast majority of contaminants before being spread on farmland. They gave themselves a free licence to dump hazardous waste. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

More than 880,000 workers will get a raise this summer due to state minimum wage increases. Anyone upset about this should consider the following: If the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour.

Bullshitting your way to power, pretending there's no £20bn blackhole pre-election and promising no tax rises or cuts. Then discovering it, and delivering both cuts and tax rises, targeting the poor and vulnerable, delivering authoritarian crackdowns and bigoted policies. Isn't a comms problem.

Parliament in a nutshell: Yesterday MPs, including Yvette Cooper, celebrated the suffragette legacy of civil disobedience that won women the right to vote.. Only to then vote to designate non-violent direct action group Palestine Action as terrorists. Westminster is broken.

There are many British commentators who have made several posts showing deep concern for Rachel Reeves over the last 24 hours but apparently lost their phones whilst hundreds of thousands of disabled people were terrified of losing the benefits they need to live.

70,000 more Britons to lose disability benefits than originally expected. Estimates up from 370,000 to 440,000, could lose £4,500 a year each. How many die? Govt averse to taxing corporations and the rich. Tell your MP to oppose cuts. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined.

UK benefit fraud prosecutions are 23 times more than for tax offences. Tax fraud up to nine times higher than benefit fraud. Laws against the rich are not always enforced. Govt taking powers to snoop on bank accounts of benefit claimants. Same won't apply to tax abusers, scammers. It is class war

The Social Security Administration (per DOGE) instituted anti-fraud checks for benefit claims made over the phone. Only two out of over 110,000 claims had a high probability of fraud — a rate of .0018% But it slowed retirement claim processing by 25%. "Efficiency."

Today marked 77 years since the Nakba — when 750,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes. It never ended. Genocide in Gaza and land theft in the West Bank continue. We stand for Palestinian freedom, return and dignity — and demand that the UK stops arming genocide.

Keir Starmer’s anti-immigration rhetoric isn’t just a dog whistle — it’s a foghorn to the far right. It echoes Enoch Powell & fuels hate. Last summer, a hotel housing asylum seekers was set on fire. This is the deadly cost of pandering to racism. Shame on the Prime Minister.
