A few celtic horses to brighten up a gloomy morning 🤗

If it wasn't clear at the time, it is clear now. Rishi Sunak and Jeremy Hunt poisoned the wells and salted the fields to ensure they left Labour a terrible inheritance. The supposed party of law and order preferred manufacturing a prison crisis to doing the right thing

Everyone losing their shit over prisoners being released. Tories brought this in you fucking idiots, this isn’t Labours doing. Tories neglected prison places, they neglected the probation service, they neglected the justice system as a whole. If you’re gonna blame anyone you best

Wise words 💚

BREAKING: Swedish Court Sends Ex-CEO of Swedbank to Prison for lying about Russian money laundering at her bank. Very powerful move! occrp.org/en/news/swedis…

Chalk feared that Operation Brinker would be triggered- essentially one in one out - which many saw as criminal justice system collapsing with prison riots becoming much more likely. But Downing st didn’t trust warnings 2/

I personally don't care where things are made, as I am not a nationalist. I only care that workers are treated fairly (e.g., labor protections, fair pay, etc). However, I do question whether people are honestly willing to pay what it costs to make clothes in the US.

When Bikers for Trump went around searching for someone to make their pro-Trump t-shirts, they said paying just $8 more for a US-made t-shirt would be too much. They have good reason to believe this: most consumers are very price sensitive when it comes to clothing.

It was also recently discovered that Rudy Giuliani buys $10 polyester ties off Amazon, even though he could have bought a made-in-USA tie from Brooks Brothers for about $100. These were made in Queens, where he was once mayor. (I believe the factory is now closed)

Whether you think tariffs will bring back jobs or not, there are two undeniable facts: US brands pay the cost, and they typically pass the cost to consumers. With retail markups, the difference for a suit can be in the hundreds of dollars.

If you think inflation is bad now, tariffs will certainly make it worse. Secondly, the end goal—to make consumers buy American—is available now. Clothes are still made in the US. You simply have to be willing to pay what it costs. Ask yourself: will you?

With an estimated 24 million gardens in the UK, making little changes to how they are cared for can make a big difference to wildlife! Swapping fences for hedges gives refuge to birds and insects, and brilliant blooms provide nectar for pollinators! 👉 wtru.st/2LCKcT1

Labour introduce a Renters Rights Bill which includes: - A ban on no-fault evictions - A limit on in-tenancy rent rises - Legislation make it illegal to discriminate against tenants on benefits - A ban on landlords accepting bids above asking price Rayner isn’t fucking about.

Everyone's favourite fashion guy is now (accurately) covering tax incidence. It feels like unfair competition.

I have the misfortune to see a PA today for my hospital appointment. The clinic nurse introduced them as a doctor, he never said he is not a doctor. I am naturally unimpressed, but feel trapped in the situation. I will be writing to PALS and the consultant team.

𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦 ZERO trail hunting licenses have been granted for hunts to use Ministry of Defence land for the 2024/25 season. This is a huge win for local wildlife.

Should the Crown Estate (which is made up of entirely of the seas and land stolen from the citizens a thousand years ago by the Monarchy for nothing) be taken back? I think it must be.

Today we honor the memory of all those we lost on September 11, 2001. May we never forget their stories – and the bravery of our first responders and troops who sacrificed so much.

Sunak not only ignored pleas from Police Chiefs to sanction early release, He ignored pleas from his own Justice Minister. He screwed the country for political point scoring in anticipation of losing the election. NEVER let them in again. itv.com/news/2024-09-1…
