Truss doing the bit about how awful it was to grow up under a Conservative government. Again.

Water companies advising consumers to use water with care - meanwhile raking in huge profits & allowing 30-40% of clean water to be lost through leaks. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Alexa, define big Mick energy

From its pit of failure, we have a ‘govt’ considering curtailing the right to strike for some workers, curtailing our access to human rights, judicial review, social justice… Our rights matter. All of them. Even the ones we don’t think we need. Sometimes especially those ones.

James Felton Fifth or sixth richest country in the world. 10 years of austerity wrecking our country. 10 years of wage suppression for ordinary workers leaving them exposed to cost of living crisis. Neither Truss or Sunak have plans for the poor, tax cuts favour the rich yet again.

This image of a woman shirtless in a sports bra - hugely significant. This is a woman’s body - not for sex or show - just for the sheer joy of what she can do and the power and skill she has. Wonderful. #Lionesses

Reminder: Brexit isn't working (with Anna Ford)

When it comes to pay, and its effect on inflation, why does the public debate always focus on the wages of those in the bottom 50% and never on those in the top 50%?

Those close to the government appear to be realising that UK households have no chance of surviving the coming winter with fuel bills forecast to rise to £4,000 or more a year. But the plan they're looking at is dire. A thread....

It's just been confirmed: energy bills will rise to £3,549 in October. This will be the biggest attack on living standards in decades. We’re declaring a National Day of Action on October 1st with protests across Britain. Join us: wesayenough.co.uk #EnoughIsEnough

It astounds me to hear "well I could never ever vote Labour it would be absolutely disastrous" without a second's thought. What was it about 1997-2010 that was so unbearable for you? Seeing a GP? Getting a filling? Decent welfare system? Schools being built? Well fed kids? What?

New government plans for growth!

Sunak correct that there’s no “magic money tree.” It’s not magic & it’s actually more of a forest, watered with the sweat & blood of workers & then chipped down and hoarded by him & his billionaire mates while your family starves & freezes.

It beggars belief that the govt responds to news nurses have voted to strike by asking them to "carefully consider" the impact on patients... it's a crying shame the Tories didn't consider the impact on patients from a decade of #ToryAusterity & pay restraint. #ReapWhatYouSow

Once again, we offered talks. Once again Ministers refused to get round the table. Once again nursing staff are left with no choice. For the protection of our patients & profession, our next strike will take place on 18 & 19 January 2023. Learn more: bit.ly/3HT5B7N

The caller on @lbc right right now talking to James O'Brien is a lucid, honest and clear account of the corruption that infests the current government. A former civil servant, sacked because he believed in upholding high standards in office. Wow.

Back of my Polling Card for local elections. For 1st time, photo ID is required. Card gives many options for elderly or those with disability. None, NONE, for younger or student voters. The policy is simply biased against younger voters, designed to suppress their vote.

Today, the government is dragging us to court to cut the #RCNStrike short. We are clear: silencing nursing is silencing the public. Share this to stand in solidarity with your nursing profession and NHS.
