If you ever want to own a home or any other assets, we need to tax the rich more.

This "debate" about who should use what toilet doesn’t benefit anyone. It doesn’t fix the underfunding of women's refuges, NHS waiting lists leaving women in terrible pain, mums skipping meals to feed their kids. How about we get on with tackling the real issues affecting women?

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social raises an important question about the corruption of the justice system. Why was not one farmer arrested for blocking roads & bringing the whole country to a standstill? Climate protesters are in prison, farmers aren’t, why? What happened to equality under the law?

North Sea oil and gas is like a toxic ex - best left in the past. Britain needs to focus on its future, which is green and full of growth. Where to start: lowering bills for working people.

The richest 10% own 57% of all wealth, but most of it isn't earned – it’s inherited or inflated by rising asset prices. Yet we tax income, not wealth. That’s not just unfair, it’s bad economics. But there are better solutions than wealth taxes | Stephen McNair @eastangliabylines.co.uk

Taxing wealth is better than a wealth tax
Inequality of wealth matters more than inequality of income. We should tax the rich more. But a blanket wealth tax is not the solution.

THIS IS SHOCKING - the financial links between MPs and the private healthcare sector. We have just completed research showing that... MPs received more than £2.7m in donations from individuals and companies directly or indirectly connected to the private healthcare sector between 2023 and 2025 🚨

The biggest and simplest reform is to break the link between the price of gas and the price of wind and sun generated electricity - that’s worth £250 per household - off energy bills overnight.

Religion does NOT belong in our schools! Agreed? ✋
An illustration showing a metaphorical “large high wall” separating “Church” and “State.” On the side labeled “Church,” buildings resembling places of worship are captioned “Religion goes here.” On the side labeled “State,” there are government buildings and a public school labeled “Science goes here.” The top of the image displays the text “BUILD THIS WALL.”

NEW: I've just been passed this excellent article from the Papua New Guinea Courier's London correspondent.
To England, where five months after the last general election two and a half million adults
(sic) have signed a petition calling for another one. Succesfully. It will be held in four years
and seven months’ time.
The campaign began because Labour didn’t restore prosperity in their first twenty weeks.
Rumours that the petition was a ruse by an autograph hunter who specialises in simpleton
signatures were not laid to rest when Reform UK threw its collective intellectual weight
behind it.
Labour only have themselves to blame. By annihilating the Tories at the ballot box, they
killed the goose that laid the golden tractor porn eggs. Without Randox, or Chris Pincher, or
shell PPE companies, or Partygate, or a vision, all they seem to offer are tax rises and warm
words about Blackrock. Ideologically, this leaves them more exposed than Peter Bone
talking to a junior staffer.
Enter stage far-right, goosestepping, Reform UK and their cartoon Tory clones who hawk
uncontested narratives about imaginary threats posed by refugees, experts and – er – trans
people. The near and present dangers of climate catastrophe are meanwhile rejected.
Never, they say, let the truth get in the way of a good story. In a world where mothballed
Thunderbirds extra Richard Tice can become a political figure, it seems that voters are
unwilling to let it get in the way of a crap one too.
Insurance giant AXA has just published data which say that Tice’s constituency is the
second most exposed to global warming in the UK. It’s a catchy stat, but not so catchy as
Tice’s mantra that ‘Net Zero equals Net Stupid’. Perhaps the 4000 householders in Boston
and Skegness who are at risk of submersion will chant this next time they’re baling turd-filled
floodwater from their living rooms.

Apologies, the alt text box has run out of space. Pls DM me if you were reading this way and I'll forward the rest!

The only people who benefit from NHS privatisation are the private company shareholders. Private companies treat the NHS like a cash cow. They train barely any staff. They mostly don’t provide emergency services. They often cherry pick easy cases+ leave complex cases to the NHS. It needs to stop.🚨🚨🚨

Since 2016, there have been 3 elections, 6 PMs, and 4 different Brexit deals, none of which the Brexiters like. Yet the same Brexiters who said voting on those deals would break democracy, want another election, because they don't like the result of the one 4 months ago. These people are toddlers.
