This week, Brexit finally killed our family business. We cleared out our warehouse, handed back the keys, paid the final bills and said goodbye to our last employee.
What was once a thriving firm died a slow, sad death, all thanks to Farage, Johnson and the gullible idiots they conned. 1/18
Impunity is an enabler of criminality. And again, I suggest that we spend some time reflecting on the radicalising effect it must have on British politicians to be so deeply and directly complicit in such monstrous, racist crimes. These people have crossed a threshold into a truly dark place.
Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.
The UK Covid-19 Inquiry says the government response to the pandemic in March 2020 was "too little, too late" • Inquiry chair Baroness Hallett is making a statement now - watch live at the top of the page. She says February 2020 was a "lost month" • The inquiry report says imposing lockdown a week earlier could have saved 23,000 lives in the first wave in England • But the inquiry also says lockdown could have been avoided altogether if steps such as social distancing and isolating those with symptoms had been introduced earlier • The report adds that a failure to learn from mistakes during later waves of the pandemic was "inexcusable"

Johnson was completely out of his depth and more concerned with his pathetic perceived popularity than leading this country through the greatest crisis since 1939.

A jolt of a reminder that law and policy are ultimately about life and death.
And politicians are often not up to dealing with such things.
Just @mind.org.uk having a bake-off with the DWP, who regularly impoverish people with mental health issues and drive them to suicide. Cake or death? Or let them eat cake? 🤔
The UAE is an authoritarian autocracy, a petro-state with no income tax for citizens, to bribe them for the lack of democratic voice or free speech
It is 85% migrant, a segregated society with a ban on integration in principle and practice, few rights, equal opportunities, nor voice for incomers

Tony Blair is literally being paid by a man with one of the highest carbon footprints on the planet - Larry Ellison. The founder of Oracle is his biggest funder & these techsolutionist remarks have to be seen for what they are: tech lobbying

UK on a badger killing frenzy -Labor like the Tories are drenched in the blood of innocent badgers with no impact on TB levels
230,000 badgers killed with no real impact on bovine TB. The killing is cruel and barbaric
