Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. In 2025, he made 1,794x more. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers? I will continue my boycott of Starbucks.

Great piece - do have a quick read and then share. Essentially, Labour putting Rejoin in its next manifesto is the single move that gives Labour the best chance at winning (possibly with a coalition) at the next General Election. 🌹🇪🇺

It's funny how the argument that being pro Brexit would guarantee a Labour victory in 2024 was so easily accepted, without any evidence at all, and when the evidence is the opposite it's deep scepticism.
