Chinese Govt owned Syngenta to cease operations at Grangemouth, 400 jobs at risk. Previously oil refinery closed. England-based British Steel rescued. What would govt do now? UK govts oppose state ownership but let foreign govts own infrastructure. Why? Any industrial strategy?

The fact so many of you give governments of all stripes a free pass to cut disability benefits and support just shows how little you actually care about us disabled folks when it comes down to it.

We've won big this year - and our wins have forced the Labour government to change course. But we need far more and urgently. From climate action to an emergency brake on rents - we'll keep the pressure on to bring about the change this country needs. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

What happened to “I can’t do anything as I’m sticking to the Manifesto”? Funny how they can do all the things that make people’s lives worse, even though they aren’t in the manifeso, but doing anything that would help “Sorry, impossible as it’s not in the manifesto”

Doing some historical digging this morning. The Liberal Party Manifesto of February 1974 committed to a freeze on all residential property rents for "at least a year". When the minority Labour government got back in later that same year, they introduced a more limited freeze on rents.

I sometimes wonder how much the fact that Health ministers are usually drawn from the demographic that uses the NHS the least (able bodied, white men, young-middle aged) is a factor in it's issues. It probably plays a part in the obsession with apps and convenience over continuity and human contact.

Here's the short answer. Social Care would be affordable if it was Nationalised. So would Energy. And Water. And Housing. And so on. The problem, no profit for billionaires. But that would be THEIR problem.

There are people that will tell you they don’t trust politicians in one conversation and then quote back to you the politicians line in another. ‘Pensions triple lock is unsustainable’ is a great example. ‘The wealthy will leave the country if we tax them any more’ is another. There’s loads more.

Over 1,200 sexual assault cases in a six year period at Cornell. The current case involves 7 men gang raping and drugging a student and being assigned essays as punishment. In 6 years, only 7 students have been expelled or dismissed. That’s less than 0.006%. Cornell sides with rapists.

Screenshot of a post by verified account Rui Pinto (@RuiPinto_FL), dated 30 September 2026. Pinto alleges that Gianni Infantino, while UEFA General Secretary in 2014, improperly intervened in investigations into Manchester City and PSG, sharing confidential documents and helping both clubs avoid potentially harsher sanctions. He says the details were revealed through Football Leaks and concludes that Infantino has become “a cancer on football” who should have no place in the game’s future.
