That the state accused of genocide and starvation is left in charge of “distributing aid” is ludicrous and obscene: an insult to human decency. Calling this “humanitarian” is humanitarian camouflage. Mediterranean states must act: Send aid by sea. Break the siege. This is how

This isn’t reform, it’s a con that lets billionaires buy their way out of tax while working people get crumbs labelled as fairness. A new loophole for the rich, dressed up as justice, while the real causes of inequality go untouched. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

If you ever wondered why it's hard to get a dentist appointment, one reason is self-inflicted red tape. 🦷 Overseas-trained dentists working in McDonald’s as millions lack NHS care rubipod.link/ecfa57aa

💡 This winter, gas plants are in line for huge windfall payments—again. The cost to you? Still 42% higher than 2021/2. Shame. UK gas plants in line for large windfall payments to keep lights on this winter rubipod.link/8fa5a693 #RichardsonsRubicon #CurrentAffairs

Perhaps now is a good time for journalists to report on Israel’s continued slaughter of Palestinians seeking aid. There is still a genocide in Gaza.

Donny just brokered a Complete & Total Ceasefire, phased over 24 hours. Iran stops in 6, Israel in 12, and boom: war ends by midnight. Because that’s how you schedule PEACE, folks! Bigly peace, the best peace ever. Bigly.

2% tax on assets worth over £10m would raise £24bn/year. Starmer's welfare cuts will only save £5bn/year. Instead of making the poorest and most vulnerable pay for years of austerity, it's time to introduce a wealth tax.

What baffles me and makes me doubt the sanity of millions of Brits, is the fact that folk on low incomes say they'll vote for a party - Reform- that would introduce an insurance-based US-style health service and tax laws that benefit the super-rich. Thick does come close to it.
