To those who relentlessly attack disabled people, what makes you think you’re immune from illness or disability? Everyone is one illness or injury away from disability. No-one is immune. One day you could be disabled & on the receiving of stigma, hatred & cruel govt policies.

Why is the government obsessed with benefit fraud? The FT has reported that: Ministers are examining proposals to grant banks access to all of the accounts of benefit claimants. They added: Officials in the Department for Work and Pensions have been a...

The government is looking at another benefit crackdown when it should, instead, be looking at corporate fraud and its own failure to pay all the benefits owing to people. Why has it got its focus so wrong? Does it just hate people on benefits? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/02...

People can’t eat or heat there homes, and on GMB today the discussion is doubling our defence spending.

Here’s a thought, why doesn’t the west stop destroying and bombing countries it wants to control but has no rights to do so.

Are people appointed to government posts to be private sector stooges? The FT has reported today that: The UK government should consider the use of private capital to fix the NHS’s crumbling buildings and infrastructure, the head of England’s health service has said. NH...

Why is the CEO of the NHS in England calling for private sector funding for NHS infrastructure when it is obvious that readily available state funding would be cheaper? Is this just pro-market political dogma being promoted by a civil servant? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/02...

All this guff about Rachel Reeves being spun by the BBC/Mail is desperate in its triviality.

It draws the lens away from the reality of her neoliberal economic agenda.

Covering just 0.07% of the UK's Farmland in solar panels would be enough to provide 100% of the UK's energy.

Remember that when they talk about not building Solar Panels to protect the UK's food supply.

It's a load of bollocks.

It is really to protect the Fossil Fuel industry.

We need to see prosecutions.

Surely there must be some legal eagles out there that can take this on?

Striking that so many on the Reform tendency, who have banged on for years about the need to remember the sacrifices of WW2 and policed the wearing of poppies... failed to learn any lessons from it.

You don't appease dictators casting shadows on your doorstep. You fight back.

The UK & EU have taken a free ride on the US's massive defence spending, but people misunderstand what has been going on.

NATO spending is not a pot into which all members' defence $ contribute

For example, the US spends the vast majority of its military $ on non-NATO, domestic priorities

Watch bad actors draw entirely the wrong conclusion from this.

The message is not "It's pointless switching to EV because they still produce brake dust."

It's "Even if we switch to EV, there will still be SOME issues."

Summary:
(Brake dust + emissions) worse than (brake dust + zero emissions)

Research claims EU deal will fuel growth — and Labour is listening A report says Britain can mend some of the economic damage of Brexit without crossing the red lines set by Keir Starmer

The UK can secure significant growth of 1.7% - 2.2% through a policy of deep alignment with the EU on goods and services, while staying within Starmer's red lines.
This is the approach to push for: peak ambition within the constraints Labour has set.

It's always a class war

Never before has there been a clearer example of how both wings of the US War Party work in tandem to achieve the Empire’s goals. The Dems slaughter and level Gaza then the GOP ethnically cleanse those who survived, both pointing at each other in the Pantomime of Death it all is.
