New paper shows that the scale of corporate profit repatriation out of the global South is... massive. "Between 2005 and 2020, transnational corporations repatriated an annual average of one trillion USD." onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Profit repatriation is theft. Profits made in global South host countries, which are produced from local labour and resources, should be reinvested to improve national development. Achieving this must be a core objective of Southern industrial policy.

A great article on how NZ has aligned with Big Formula against mums & babies. Shows the huge power of companies like Fonterra or Danone, as formula is ~15% of NZ exports. NZ rivers are turning into 🐄 sewers as a result but hey $ trump people. #Auspol Mike Joy Helen Clark

One thing we've learned from studying genocides is that language like this often precedes the mass killing. Otherize, dehumanize, and fearmonger about the target group. This is well documented in Rwanda in 90s and in the 1930s Nazi regime. This is historical fact, not hyperbole.

I just signed - will you join me? Te Tiriti o Waitangi and its principles must be protected by all of us. It is essential for Māori rights and health and is what allows us Pākehā and Tauiwi to call Aotearoa home. our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/kati… via Marc “Action” Jackson

Fantastic analysis by @BenjaminM_Wood on the political economy system of #UPFs showing feedback loops holding our high UPF consumption in place. Helps to explain the huge policy inertia preventing serious action.
