What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

What is it that people expect from deporting people?

Because it won't lower House prices or rents.
And it won't make food or energy cheaper.
There won't be more jobs and they certainly won't pay better.

At what point do you realise it is going to achieve nothing?

Will blame for #economy harm 📉& #Reeves’ 👛Budget tax rises.

But what are #Starmer & #Labour really doing re #BrexitReality — and is it enough? 🤔

If we can't afford billionaires we shouldn't have them.

Don't you agree?

When the basics of Housing, Energy, Water and Healthcare don't function we shouldn't have super rich people.

Let them pay for that before they pointlessly hoard wealth they will never spend.

I turn on my TV and a TV presenter is asking a Govt minister why they are talking about rolling out free childcare when the big issue is asylum hotels. This is objectively insane.

Douglas Carswell has skirted the line and now he's crossed it.

This is disgusting racism from a former MP who now demonstrates who and what he is.

Today Nick Ferrari asked if treaties like the ECHR & the Refugee Convention that were drawn up in the wake of WWII are still relevant to modern Britain.

I said the context of racial hatred towards Muslim immigrants now echoes the hatred of Jewish immigrants in the 20th century. We need these laws.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

There can be absolutely no “shock” about this. The media has been shamelessly platforming Reform all summer. All summer, we’ve had hate-mongering headlines about immigration. It’s a tedious and grim inevitability that you’ve made people angry enough to want to vote for this shit in response.

Not sure whether all the media coverage of these flag waving "just a concerned mum/dad"s outside asylum hotels is really helping matters tbh unless of course your aim as a media organisation is to whip up more societal division so as to distract from anything that's really..

Oh.

Want to boost birth rates? Give people living wages, good healthcare, autonomy over their bodies, and a sense that the future isn't predestined to be some Mad Max shit.

People don't want to reproduce when you're actively making the world shitty and hopeless.

Public ownership is the only way to save the water industry Public ownership is the only viable alternative but is opposed by the government

Are you ready to hand more than £1,000bn to England's privatised water companies by 2050?

Shareholders don't invest. Money will be extracted from customers, shareholders will own the resulting assets and income streams and collect dividends.

Public ownership is the only sane way.

Rachel Reeves considers overruling supreme court in £44bn car finance scandal.

Ultimate Deregulation: Law may be bent to prevent compensation to millions, protect banks from their follies. A licence to misbehave.

Any chance of laws to cap bankers' bonuses, higher taxes?

NO. It is one-way traffic

Extraordinary how much of the media is essentially trying to incite rioting now. Not just legitimise or normalise but actively encourage. It is, of course, unlikely to kick off anywhere near them.

The solution is really simple, don't pay the billionaires, cut off their money.

Then there will be loads of money for everything.

Today is World Overshoot Day. A majority of Brits are worried about climate change. But do you know who’s running away from the problem? Reform UK. They are ignoring science and delaying action.
