UK Chancellor pledges cheaper marmalade and gherkins in pre-Budget package of 'everyday fixes'. Fiddling at the edges. Need redistribution of income and wealth. End profiteering in housing, energy, water, essentials. Increase tax personal allowance.

True 😂 Israel could say that a hospital got blown up by a dragon and the British press would run with it.” Frankie Boyle

“Honey we can’t buy eggs, we have to set aside $7 to bomb the kids in Gaza. Remember?” Abdul El-Sayed is absolutely crushing it. This is the most brilliant ad of all time 👏🏼

A consultation is open until Wednesday 28 October over Cardiff's Llanrumney data centre. Make your voice heard: the neighbouring Rhymney River is home to otters, kingfishers and bats. The data centre could be bad news for them.

A 1GW AI data centre is coming to the Liberty Steel site in Newport, beside the River Usk. The Usk is protected for its salmon, shad, lamprey and otters. Newport City Council approved three applications for the facility, yet no plans or ecology reports are available online. Why not?

UK lacks essential electricity transmission/storage systems. Billions paid to solar & wind turbine farms to switch off during periods of high sunshine/winds, expected to cost £8bn a year by 2030. National Grid pays dividends. What is the Govt doing? Watch the Minister's reply.

Every year the propaganda around the poppy becomes more and more ridiculous. Having nothing to do with the fallen or those injured in war, but instead a massive warmongering campaign by the people who profit from war or use it without taking any risks themselves.

Sainsbury's has posted an annual profit of £1.02bn. It current has 10,000 young people working for free, paid by you. With £1.02bn it could hire 105,905 people aged 18-20 for 16 hours a week all year. Why not MAKE the scumbags hire instead of giving them free workers?

So the oil that was running out in 2014 has a new pipeline kicking in. We will see almost zero benefit from this new drilling as the price of fuel continues to increase as well as profits We can do things differently via #independence . #snp #Scotland #endlondonrule #indyref #AreYouYesYet

Trump calling someone stupid is like a goldfish criticizing Einstein.

Johnson’s shambolic handling of the Covid epidemic should come with him serving time.

Seems only right. This should be extended to cover tax avoidance by exile, people like Jim Ratcliffe, why should people who leave our country to avoid paying tax, keep their honours, its a dishonourable thing to do. www.ruck.co.uk/rugby-news/k...

🚨🇬🇧 Labour is backing homegrown gas to strengthen Britain’s energy security. With global instability pushing up energy prices, this is Labour taking action to protect families and jobs. Gas could reach British homes by the end of the month, helping heat millions of homes. Labour delivering.

Okay but giraffes are really hard. Only genius-level people like our president can spot a giraffe

If the far right say there's no money for benefits, care homes, SEND, housing just suggest recouping £billions from PPE etc fraudsters and #TaxTheRich "Lest we forgot: The right wing made sure there was no protective ring around care homes; while protecting rich friends" via The UK Against Hate

Even Putin's face shows that he finds the slimy sycophancy cringeworthy.

Chaos in Washington The new Private Eye is out now.

A complete waste of money.

The Duchy of Cornwall owned the by Prince of Wales is a giant business organization It is exempt from corporation and capital gains tax, uses infrastructure funded by others to make profit. Inevitably, leads to unfair competition and free-rider problem.

Left: At a Reform UK Christmas party, Farage laughs off schooldays as “banter”, joking he’ll get “a hard time” in 40 years. Right: Peter Ettedgui, whose Jewish grandparents fled Nazis is one of 34 classmates alleging racist or antisemitic abuse. He says Farage told him: “Hitler was right. Gas ’em.”

🚨 WATCH: Undercover footage of Nigel Farage's close aide shows Farage was not supposed to say the £5m gift was for Brexit "That was not the line to take from the press office. So now the line is 'a thank you for Brexit, to pay for his security for the rest of his life'..."

That’s a true mom.

The only unskilled jobs are Billionaire, Banker, Landlord, Politician. Because they aren't jobs and if they disappeared all that would happen is everyone else would get richer.

Electricity costs put UK steelmakers in worst position against EU rivals. Govt subsidising energy cost of 10,000 businesses via public purse. Others suffer too. Govt not attending to real causes - faulty pricing formula based on cost of gas, profiteering by energy companies. Nationalise energy.
