Rishi Sunak received £141k donation from oil/gas investors/companies.
Their Reward:

No curbs on oil/gas profiteering
Ineffective windfall tax,
No action on tax avoidance by oil/gas companies,
Huge subsidies for fossil fuels.

Global food prices have surged 65% since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. UK food inflation up 14.5% this year, and people on benefits and in low pay have had no payrises. So millions are hungry. Some will starve. And our politicians are silent, more interested in ‘markets’.

TikTok is where I fear Twitter might go if Musk takes over. Freedom of speech for fascists and demagogues, but censorship for those who challenge power.
Tik Tok just REMOVED our @zarahsultana video on Rishi Sunak becoming PM on grounds of “illegal activities & regulated goods/fraud & scams”
After censoring 6 previous vids with @jeremycorbyn @GeorgeMonbiot @vijayprashad

As the unelected Sunak ‘inherits’ the job of PM :
“I think people need to be on the streets. We need to protest about everything thats going on. The country is being run on behalf of the wealthy, its not being run on behalf of the people" : Mick Lynch

"I have no time for cynicism. It feels hugely misplaced at this time... No time for censure or relentless condemnation. No time for the whole cycle of perpetual blame... Life is too damn short, in my opinion, not to be awed."

#AfterLife is a brilliant show about loss, grief and the attempt to move on and live. I loved it. A bench and a stranger are one key plot point. Well Worth Watching. Not what you might expect from @rickygervais. Or maybe it is. Find a bench. #wept #laughed #reflected #love
If you get a chance this summer, try to find one of the 30 #AfterLife benches we’ve stuck around the country to encourage people to talk. #HopeIsEverything

Eddie Dempsey from the @RMTunion: "Its a bit of a cheek asking are trade unions being greedy asking for a pay rise. The FTSE 350 top companies profits have gone up 73% since 2019 - when are we going to ask are they being greedy?". Well said!👏🏽👏🏽
