It’s only a matter of time before the courts decide there has been overreach by the government and throw this pathetic ban out. The Home secretary and PM should ashamed of themselves. And all this as those they seek to protect perpetrate a genocide in plain sight against said Palestinians

UK Homelessness minister threw out her tenants - then increased rent by £700 a month. Rent increased from £3,300 to £4,000 a month, 21% increase. As Mahatma Gandhi said: "Be the change that you wish to see in the world". archive.ph/Pcl6U

UK govt is wrong on the cost of bringing England's water back into public ownership. Its £100bn number has no economic/legal basis. The cost of public ownership is "closer to zero". Companies are bankrupt, their shareholders and lenders have already extracted billions.

I am asking you again to please also speak up for the Palestinian people. Theyre going through a genocide by the Israeli govt including land grab, racism, rapes, & kidnapping. That 8.8 billion dollars would be better spent literally anywhere else. We have their blood on our hands & we must end it.

Very true, I'm not an admirer of business success, just pointing out that Trump failed in business and the TV show portrayed him as a great success.

It might have helped if you had chosen a businessman with some experience of success, rather than a fake from a TV show.

The council probably see this as a test, if they want to impose pay cuts on their other public services staff, much like Thatcher provoking the miners in order to attack all unions.

We're heading back to Victorian levels of poverty, nobody owns their own homes, you work for a lifetime to retire at 70 into a life where you can barely survive. While the millionaire Workhouse owners are now billionaires, soon to be trillionaires, but they won't pay any tax.

The monarchy has no decency & holds no legitimacy. It's outdated beyond belief, & It holds the most evil of people, it cannot be updated to fit in the 21st century because it should never have existed! There is only one answer for the monarchy & that is for it to be immediately dissolved #NotMyKing

Keir Starmer said yesterday: “Labour is the party of work. We shouldn’t shrug our shoulders as millions are unable to work.” Stop creating a false binary. Clinician here: cutting £5–6k from disabled people isn’t help—it’s wilful abandonment and many will die. #WelfareNotWorkfare

The establishment saw Corbyns labour nearly achieve power despite all the media effort to discredit them; they saw signs that the working class could organize and recognize its interests. Now the wealthy are desperate to crush any hint of class consciousness even if they have to crash the economy

Living standards for all UK families set to fall by 2030, those on the lowest incomes declining twice as fast as middle and high earners. Poorest in UK already worse off than poorest in Malta. Govts appease corporations and the rich. Must end neoliberal policies. Redistribute. Tax the rich.

UK law denies the full minimum wage rate to workers below the age of 21. They pay full price for housing, food, shoes, clothes, transport, medicines and other essentials. Output of their labour is not sold at lower price. Legalised age discrimination, exploitation of young workers.

I don't want the Water Companies to be bailed out, I want their bosses to be jailed and their companies repossessed. I don't want Public Services to be cut, I want billionaires to be taxed. I'm not interested in the growth of the richest 1%, I want that money to go to the 99%.

All wages should increase each year by the rate of inflation, this should be a legal requirement outside of any negotiations. Any year when your wage increase doesn't match inflation you have had a pay cut.
