So 1) we will creat wealth but keep it to ourselves. 2) you have to work like a dog 3) we will make an example of some poor people 4) we will deport people but that's about it 5) end of what is left of welfare state, you are on your own. (But we will still watch you).

The core beliefs of the Tories, from the Guardian. The first four are disguised as common sense but are meant to make you poorer. This also applies to fifth, but that one is just openly neoliberal.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

Graphic reading: “120+ organisations and unions across Europe call on governments and the European Commission to scrap Palantir contracts.” It adds that Palantir supports warmongers, drains public wealth and deepens dependence on tech billionaires, ending: “We say no to Palantir.”
