If you're struggling to think of what to get someone for Christmas, get them a fridge and watch their face light up when they open it.

Emergency Prices: How Private Equity Captured the Ambulance Market Emergency service costs have been going up for years, frustrating city officials. One reason seems to be private equity, which bought up ambulance makers and raised prices.

How Private Equity Captured the US Ambulance Market.

PE controls vehicle manufacturing, prices raised, profiteering. Higher cost of emergency services.

In UK, PE controls water, dentistry, vets, care homes, child fostering, hospitals. What next?

Capitalism worships profit, devoid of humanity.

It is in our house ... almost compulsory!

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Look, the collective UK cock is too deep in the apple pie. If we pull out now we might look stupid.

THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!!!! Morgan McSweeney, Keir Starmer, Peter Mandelson....you boys took a HELL of a beating tonight.

@greenpartyhan.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social This is just the beginning.

Reform is just the Tory party ‘reformed’ to be even more extreme and less responsive to the public good.

First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped.

Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented.

Tell Keir Starmer to change this.

Call off the King’s visit to the US for the 250th anniversary of America's independence With the current political chaos in the US and Trump’s failure to adhere to international norms, and given his apparent obsession with the Monarchy, calling off this visit would send a powerful messag...

The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

If the royal family is such a boon for the nation's coffers, imagine how great it would be for the economy if everybody else got given a few palaces and didn't have to work or pay normal tax.

Is Rachel Reeves constrained by the City? Is the City really stopping Rachel Reeves from doing what Labour wants, or is she just using it as a convenient excuse for her neoliberal austerity? This is the audio version: This is the transc...

A narrative is recited almost everywhere: that Rachel Reeves is being "forced" to cut benefits, and is faced with "hard choices" or "no choice". This story, a staple of neoliberal doctrine, is completely false, as @richardjmurphy.bsky.social explains: www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/03...

An infographic with stats about the super rich. The title reads "Where's the money?". The facts include: Since 1990, UK billionaire wealth has increased by 1160%. £457 billion of profit has been made by energy companies since the start of the crisis. In 2024 world billionaire wealth grew $2 trillion. It's surely time to tax the rich.

How is it possible that the wealth of the super-rich has exploded, but we're facing billions in austerity cuts? How have banks, energy companies, and oil and gas made record profits while foodbank use has reached 3.1 million? We need to tax the rich.

'least racist' can include zero racism, can't it?

Labour should at least consider fighting poverty instead of fighting the poor

In case you’re not sure why the NHS isn’t working any more, it’s because the service is being slowly dismantled by politicians who are turning it into a cash cow for private companies, starving it of resource so it doesn’t work properly, and enabling the private sector to expand rapidly 🚨
