Newspapers call the tolerant left "extremist" While right wingers with vile bigoted views are portrayed as sensible & moderate Why? Because the media is owned by tax-avoiding billionaires who want no-one to #BlameMillionairesNotMigrants for poverty and campaign to #TaxTheRich meme via Steve Benson

Imagine a man driven to kill himself because the British media destroyed his reputation based on lies. And then imagine that, even after his death, that same media carry on tormenting his family with the same soul destroying lies. Incredible, isn’t it. But here we are

We’re living longer – but not equally. Raising the state pension age may save the Treasury money, but those in poorer health, carers and people in physically demanding jobs could pay the highest price. Who loses out when we’re all expected to work longer? @eastangliabylines.co.uk

🚨 "If we had stayed in the EU, the Treasury would have had an extra £90 billion per year to spend on welfare, defence, education etc. without creating new taxes or raising tax rates. No nation in living memory has acted so foolishly in peacetime."

Today UK Foreign secretary Yvette Cooper announced further sanctions on individuals from Russia. But Cooper has completely ignored a letter sent last week from at least 71 MPs & peers from different parties asking her to sanction Benjamin Netanyahu to “help end the impunity” 😤 #Complicit ⬅️
