What they want you to believe: Wildfires = Canada mismanagement. What the data says: 335 million hectares burned globally in 2025. 3,955 fires in Canada in 2026 alone, 1,092,095 hectares in non-EU Europe, Spain, France, USA, South Africa, Australia. This is climate, not a country.

www.bbc.com/news/article... Whereas, in the US, ~500,000 incarcerated people work prison jobs — often for pennies. CoreCivic alone made $3B in 2022 off prison labor, which Stanford estimates is 80–100% cheaper because wages are negligible.

#laurak should have pointed out to Jenrick where the tax raises have come rather than to "all of us" Tax rises hit: Employers, Higher earners, Wealthy, Property owners – surcharge on homes over £2m, Private school families – 20% VAT Business owners – CGT relief reduced, EOT relief cut All of us?

Social media ban in UK for under 16s has caused some to wonder what they're going to do instead. Reading books sounded like an unpopular suggestion this morning. Free guitars and practice places for the youff might finally result in decent new bands coming out of the UK again. 🤓🤡

Israel's genocide in Gaza has killed over 72,000 Palestinians. Now Palestinians in Gaza again face enforced hunger after Israel closed all crossings into Gaza, with humanitarian groups warning supplies will last only a few days. End the siege. Let food in.

If you could shrink world news into a Festival the size of Glastonbury, Palestine would be the Pyramid Stage, Ukraine vs Russia would be on the Other Stage and the British media/BBC would be focusing entirely on what's going on Left Field. #BobVylan & #Kneecap

I airways thought #RodStewart was one of a small number of rock artists with perfect timing. His coming out with pro-fascist statements just before performing at #Glastonbury shows he's clearly lost it.

There were 250 million eligible to vote in US election. #Trump somehow managed to persuade 74 million fools to vote for his chaos The majority of the 176 million remaining couldn't be bothered to vote, perhaps because Democrats vs. Republicans is not that inspiring. That's good old US #democracy.
