Capitalism is in the cannibalism stage. Private equity funds are buying up retirement homes, daycares, doctors' offices, veterinarian clinics, etc. To maximize profits for their wealthy investors, they lay off workers, slash healthcare, sell pensions, cut paychecks to the bone.

These would be astonishing scenes from Nepal, except for the fact that they are now happening somewhere on the planet almost every day. This is what a shattered climate looks like.

Not before time, Simon Case scuttles off to the Lords, probably to be master of an Oxbridge college, and to some sweet directorships, all while being really quite dreadful

Simon Case should have been sacked the minute he was conveniently ill for the Covid enquiry. He has a "neurological" condition which allows him to work for months in a high power job but does not allow him to spend one day sat talking to an enquiry?

Ofgem allowed this. Since the pandemic electricity generation profit margins up 198%. Electricity/Gas supply profit margins up by 363%. British Gas profits up 10-fold last year. BP, Shell double/treble profits. No UK regulator protects people. leftfootforward.org/2024/09/why-th…

No wonder so many people think plastic recycling is a con Soft plastics mostly burned Hard plastics send abroad - presumably for landfill or burning And all to keep demand for new fossil-fuel sourced plastic high Just despicable theguardian.com/environment/20…

#OnThisDay, 1989, Technotronic's hit single "Pump Up the Jam" reached No. 2 in the UK charts. Luckily, the bilge pump on the Mary Rose had an inspection hatch, so you could see what was jamming it and clear it out. No, hang on, that's "Jam up the pump"...

Hoy is always a breathtaking island, but today was something particularly special. Never seen the Old Man of Hoy poking up through the haar like this, close up. Stunning. Dog’s mind was blown too. #orkney #hoy #october #visitscotland

I’m not saying she sent Boris the interview briefing notes as a favour, then he forwarded her email to somebody else (“Read this for me”) & copied her in because he’s a moron, so she knew there was evidence of her original email & had to cancel it before the story got out. No.

This is absolute madness. Carbon capture and storage has failed time and again. Labour has slashed reliable green programmes, to pour vast sums of our money into a complete crock. The only possible explanation is lobbying by fossil fuel companies.🧵 theguardian.com/environment/20…

Johnson’s affair with Arcuri - giving her a loan, getting Carrie pregnant while his wife was going through cancer, brazenly walking Carrie, his then mistress, into Downing street . Can you imagine the headline if this was Starmer !!

Another Covid-era scandal emerges: Excalibur Healthcare, once awarded £160m in Covid contracts, has collapsed into liquidation with £22m owed to the taxpayer. Shady dealings, unpaid bills, and failed deliveries of PPE and ventilators expose another chapter of Covid-era
