Writer, info-junkie (main-lining the Zeitgeist just for fun!) And I twitter when drunk, so, apologies if I offend.

Please stop comparing dying from poverty to Darwin’s “survival of the fittest.” Poverty is a social construct driven by wealth hoarding in the post industrial age, not by any natural shortage of resources.

Labour is letting Thames Water off the hook. Nationalise now, no compensation. Vote Green in Holborn and St Pancras this Thursday to make Labour finally act.
🚨BREAKING @TheGreenParty calls for Thames Water and South East Water to be taken into public ownership WITHOUT COMPENSATION by Christmas Thames Water is insolvent, and South East Water has repeatedly failed to supply water to thousands of homes This is wonderful from the Greens

Helen Whately & Kemi Badenoch are both millionaires. They claim the most. Incl £74.6k in rent paid for by us. Their bills, council tax, travel expenses, subsidised food & drink. But the Conservatives want you to believe disabled people on an average of £15k a year are the issue
We must cut welfare to fund defence.

Shell is 100% Government funded in the UK. You pay all their wages, for all their Oil Rigs and all their tankers. But the fuel belongs to them. They really are laughing at you.

37,000 people arrive on small boats. 4,000,000 kids are in poverty. 4,500,000 can't get a dentists. But they will blame these vast problems on a tiny one. They think you are too stupid to know the problem, is them, the greedy billionaires.

Andy Burnham says he's still not sure if this is genocide. I wonder what he'd call it if Tel Aviv looked like this? 🤔

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Police injured, vehicles damaged as anti-migrant mob storms Portsmouth. It was carefully organised, a mob blocked roads, stand off with police lasted until about 4am today. Two days ago 500 masked, black-clad men blocked access to Dover. Why no arrests? lbc.co.uk/article/police-inj…
Blackshirts clash with police in Portsmouth after the arrival of a small boat carrying migrants. It is mob rule. Private armies, masked & dressed in black roam the streets, blocking roads, attacking police. Whatever happened to the rule of law and order? news.sky.com/story/140-migra…

My statement on Israel's decision to ban me and 10 other British MPs from entry. "I have visited all parts of Palestine on several occasions, where I have witnessed the horrors of occupation, as well as the resilience and humanity of the Palestinian people. They are the ones who suffer from Israel's apartheid. It is their freedom which is egregiously curtailed, alongside thousands of Palestinian refugees who are denied the right of return. As the world wakes up to the genocide in Gaza, it is shocking that Israel continues to deny entry to UN investigators and international journalists. Israel doesn't want the world to see what it is doing - but we can never give up in our attempts to expose the truth. That is the real scandal. Israel’s genocide cannot go unpunished - and I will keep speaking up for peace, freedom and justice for the Palestinian people."

Andy Burnham promised to cap political donations. Now he’s in Downing Street, he’s backtracked. Politics should work for ordinary people, not billionaires and corporate lobbyists. Read Rachel Millward’s full article below 👇

Jason Arday might have lied about the amount he was paid to write a book. Michael Gove literally bragged the £10bn stolen during the Covid PPE scam was an 'honest mistake'. One was instantly forgotten about, the other was hounded to his death.
