I've made a short list of some profiles of people I'd been following on Twitter - some might jog your memory, some might be new faces. Check them out, share the list, suggest additions - we need to build a bit of a community here now... bsky.app/profile/stev...

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but capitalism was literally founded on the *politics of envy*. How will it end? You’ll have to read the book ;-)

95% of us who live in the countryside are not farmers and do not work in farming or agricultural industries. Our interests do not coincide with the interests of rural landowners or their businesses.

As inheritance tax on farms is a hot topic today, a reminder of how millions of acres ended up in the ownership of so few people. Every entry in this book lists a village with the number of acres stolen by Enclosure - the process that shaped the distribution of land & wealth ownership in England...

I signed up here ages ago but didn't do anything with the profile - planning to migrate to this Musk-free space... :-)
