Folks, I don't intend to post about every single horrible thing that's happening at the moment because I'm not a direct news source and also because my mental health has an upper limit. Don't confuse lack of obsessive news updating for lack of concern or lack of personal action. Also, here's a cat.

Smudge the cat, who is mostly concerned just with what's going on in his own house.

Capitalism is about exploiting people for profit. The ideal of Capitalism is slavery where you keep everything. People need to understand this, the system IS the problem.

Imagine being in a "Labour" government, and looking at Reform UK and saying "We need to be more like them". What happened? Labour have lost their way... www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The richest 50 billionaires in the UK are getting £2m richer EACH every single day. It's time to tax this money and give it to the poorest. They are already billionaires they don't need it.

What we are witnessing is the normalisation of extremism. If we allow the right to pretend that the German AFD is just another conservative party... or that Donald Trump is just another president... or that Elon Musk was just getting carried away with that salute are on a distinctly dangerous path.

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.

Austerity costs, and with austerity there will never be growth. You have to build your way out of decline. Clement Attlee and FDR both knew it and launched the largest building programs ever in their nations.

We've crossed a very, very dangerous threshold. The combined forces of ignorance, disinformation, hate, and extreme wealth have seized power and are twisting the global agenda. Decent people need to step up and counter it all, or things are simply going to descend into the pit of hell.

We approach a very dangerous point in human history when far too much power is in far too few hands. They think they can do whatever they want, and they will try to.

The whole purpose of Government is to be the chains on big business, to regulate, control and tax them. Not to be enablers for their tax dodging, wage slavery and mass pollution.

Privatization was always a plan for a Global Dictatorship. Now countries don't even control their own electricity, food supply or even water. So they are powerless to resist when those same people who own all their Public Services decide to completely take over.

We live in an age of Predatory Capitalism where instead of paying for service or quality, you are forced to pay whatever they like for essentials like Power, Housing, Banking, Food and 'Public' Transport. Because they have a monopoly and there is no competition or regulation.

Denmark has a new king, the King and Queen get approximately $500,000 from the Danish Government a year, and the whole family is worth $40m. In the UK King Charles gets $150,000,000 a year and his family is worth $25bn. We need to be more like Denmark.

Tesco could afford to give every single one of their 12m customers £100 for Christmas and their profits would still be higher than 2 years ago. That's because that is how much extra they are stealing off you.

Prepayment meters, mostly used by the poor, cost UK households more than 30% of income in winter. Leaving little for other essentials. Poor punished by low wages/benefits, high cost of living, profiteering. Govts do little to address causes of poverty. www.theguardian.com/money/2024/d...

So, so far Labour have watered down their £28bn Green Programme, abandoned Leveson 2, abandoned Lords reform, abandoned PR, abandoned HS2, there’s no plan to Rejoin AND they won’t be reining in this Musk/Reform situation. Absolutely pathetic.

Starmer's authoritarianism is leading to poor policy choices by govt. Party membership emasculated. MPs showing dissent silenced. Parliamentary select committees stuffed with novices. Left purged. Lack of diversity leads to poor policy choices. leftfootforward.org/2024/12/labo...

Labour’s drift to the right could risk Keir Starmer being a one-term prime minister

Right now millions of people are very sympathetic to Luigi Mangione if not on the political, direct action front then by how someone so touched by the sociopathic American healthcare industry mightve become radicalised But the machine will work In 6 months they’ll have successfully demonised him

Luigi Magione has terrorist charges against him. Terrorism - Intending to intimidate or coerce a civilian population. Intimidate a unite of government or government policies by violence and murder. I feel that definition applies much more to CEOs of healthcare companies.

Britain was rich before Margaret Thatcher and billionaires didn't exist in the UK. After her Britain has nothing and the billionaires have everything. That is what she did.
