Average weekly earnings in 2023 are *still* below their 2008 peak. If wages had continued to grow at the 2.2 per cent trend they were on then, the average worker would be earning £205 more every week. Learn more ➡️ economy2030.resolutionfoundation.org/reports/ending…

Palestinians risked life & limb to reach Rafah, the last designated safe zone in Gaza. Now they are being told to leave. Where are they supposed to go? This is not an “evacuation.” This is ethnic cleansing — and our government is complicit by letting Israel act with impunity.

A good chunk of the depression we are feeling comes not just from watching fellow human being massacred with impunity but also the realisation that those who tasked with 'representing' us only represent money & power, that the wishes of millions of us is of no consequence to them

Don’t let them blame the recession on disabled people, the long-term sick languishing on NHS waiting lists, and struggling children. The people responsible are in this picture.

“The true sickness in this country can’t be found in a benefits office but in Downing Street. It is a political culture demonising people already suffering, and a rightwing media content to parrot the lies and bigotry it is fed.” Me on Sunak’s “sicknotes” theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Whenever there’s a high profile story about a man or men who have done horrible crimes to women people tend to go “they’re not men, they’re monsters” but they are men! They’re men who have friends and people you know I’m afraid!

All 51 men, including her husband, were found guilty of raping Gisèle Pelicot in her home over nine years. Her courage in making the case public and throughout this ordeal has been extraordinary. “Shame has to switch sides”. In France, here, and right across the globe.

When an "ordinary guy" (who's revolted by Dominique) shares an intimate photo of a girl, will he recognise that he consents for her exactly like Dominique consented for Gisele? We need *that* kind of cultural change. The law can't solve this alone. metro.co.uk/2024/12/20/one…

It’s interesting that it’s always the poor, disabled and vulnerable that *have* to pay the price for “balancing the books” and never big business or the extremely wealthy.

Labour won't redistribute wealth from billionaires. But they will seize belongings from those fleeing war and persecution. Absolutely disgusting. Asylum seekers are human beings — and they deserve to live in dignity just like anybody else. theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/n…

At what point will people realize it doesn't matter how badly we treat immigrants, it won't improve life for you one single bit.
