Petrol stations should not be allowed to display any branding. Instead, like tobacco, they should be plastered in massive grim pictorial health warnings, and only show their company name in a small nondescript font underneath.

What if bees were an extinct species? It would have devastating consequences. Bees are vital pollinators for plants, including crops we rely on for food. Their absence would lead to a decline in plant diversity, disruptions in food chains, and potential food shortages for both humans and wildlife.

Median salary earners pay 36.3% of income in property rent, 41.6% in London. Profiteering inflicts poverty. Essential workers can't live near work. What chance of raising a family, saving for decent home, education, pension? Must control rents. Need social housing.

Starmer/Reeves should prepare UK for wealth tax, say top economists. Long overdue. Top 1% have more wealth than 70% of population combined. Laws bent to help the rich - privatisations, PFI, corporate subsidies, capital gains and dividends taxed at lower rates than wages, unchecked profiteering.

This is what ICE does: just like they stalked the family’s car and smashed the windows in to kidnap them. They attack people on the streets grab them and take them to concentration camps. Entire neighborhoods gather to protect little babies & their moms from being separated & kidnapped.

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

Britain and Germany issuing travel warnings to the US is the kind of thing Americans might not be aware of, but it’s poison to tourism and international economic activity. The perception of the US as dangerous due to gun violence is widespread; now the government is chaining up British tourists.
