Gerry Mitchell Make Votes Matter Make Votes Matter #Woking Thank you for writing to me, as you know I’m a big supporting of Proportional Representation.

Wealthy people like us, who live in this country and love this country, want to pay more tax. It’s the smartest kind of investment and we would be proud of a government that asked us to pay. If anyone can, we can afford it.

Email your MP now to demand that the UK Government acts urgently to uphold international law, and immediately halt arms sales to Israel. I just wrote to my local MP Will Forster MP 🔶 . Medical Aid for Palestinians map.org.uk/campaigns/emai…

The irony of it all...

why exactly do Starmer and Reeves think that letting pensioners freeze will be good for the economy? Read Dr. Steve Keen here 👉open.substack.com/pub/profstevek…

At the start of this academic year, many children with SEND across the UK don’t have a suitable school place, or a school place at all. Catriona Moore from IPSEA joins @bbcnuala to advise parents how to navigate the system ⬇️

100% this. And the more we are all subjected to the shocks and calamities of an increasingly unstable economy and climate, the *more* universal benefits and provision will be needed to provide security.

Other countries that tax the rich more found that when you tax wealth, millionaires stay & pay. Tax Justice research found that only 0.01% of the super rich left Norway, Sweden, and Denmark for "boring" tax havens. In the UK, that would mean 249 leave, and 2,848,715 stay & pay.

I just voted against cutting the Winter Fuel Allowance. For me, this was a matter of conscience. This cut is not only going to cause even greater hardship for so many pensioners in my constituency who are already living in poverty, but it will also cost lives.

I voted against cuts to winter fuel payments. Politics is about choices, and the government has chosen to push pensioners into poverty. What’s next for means testing? The NHS? I will always defend the principle of universalism. That is how we build a fairer society for all.

‘Children need their needs met. When their needs are met, we see them thrive’ In our special Woman’s Hour from the BBC Radio Theatre, Nuala McGovern looked at support for kids with Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND) in England & the mums trying to access it for them ⬇️

Really good to spend time with Jules Hopkins this morning. One of the many brilliant people locally whose committed to redistributing good food that would otherwise go to waste. 🤩💪💚
