🔥 And there you have it-

Even a majority of Leave voters support the EU’s proposal for a UK-EU Youth Mobility Scheme.

It’s overwhelming.

Both Conservative & Labour are wildly out of touch on UK-EU issues.

Feeling overwhelmed by the headlines? You're not alone. The world seems gripped by polycrisis—and it's a systemic shift affecting our psyches and societies, making us poorer and more divided. All this turmoil? It’s the emotional labor demanded by Extinction Age Capitalism. 1/4

Tax Evasion is 360x Benefit Fraud.

Democracy should be an open door to an equal world. Instead, the symbol of Parliament is a crown (domination), chains (oppression) and a portcullis (exclusion).
Symbols are important. They encapsulate values. They tell us what something strives to be.

How Europe sees us... from Danish newspaper Information.

'Who Killed Great Britain? Britain is a country in economic, political and moral crisis. Information has traveled to London to look for the roots of British decay.'

In this thread, a translated summary.

There's something so fucking obscene about a man like #RishiSunak , whose home swimming pool requires so much power the national grid had to be adjusted, who's funnelled so much taxpayer money to his wife's firm, targeting the sick and infirm.

It's depravity on a biblical scale.

The news today might feel scary if you're currently off work for your mental health. We get it 💙

We just want to reassure you that these changes are *not* coming into effect right now. 1/2

After all the corruption we've seen from the Tory party and everything they've done to bring our NHS to its knees, Sunak dares to suggest it's the sick who can't work who are the problem? The very people he and his party have let down so badly? The sheer nerve of it.

Call it what you will, but this is now a state sanctioned war on the most vulnerable in the country

Our PM does not understand the collateral damage done to people from long covid (HIS fault) or mental health worries over money (HIS policies)

What a vile heinous man he is

Rishi Sunak today announced plans to review the fit note system for people who aren’t well enough to work, with a focus on mental health.

His speech continues a trend in recent rhetoric that is stigmatising, harmful, and inaccurate.

For anyone who thought our problems might principally be caused by corrupt and incompetent politicians, hard-right zealots or greedy oligarchs, the prime minister is on hand to denounce the real culprits: refugees, trans people and those struggling with depression

EU to UK: Do you want freedom of movement back for young people? The Labour Party: We already told you: no freedom of movement. Unbelievable.

Yes, all this. Plus a terribly handled pandemic resulting in a tsunami of long term sick people.

Every policy they announce manages to be ill thought out & demonstrably unhelpful, as-well as callous & fiscally terrible.

Cutting out medical practitioners, scapegoating the sick, adding a layer of costly beurocracy which will no doubt enrich their pals

Heinous #GTTO

Me.

Drug shortages, now normal in UK, made worse by Brexit

‘some companies removing the UK from their supply chains’

‘UK’s exit from single market has disrupted previously smooth supply of drugs’

Something else they didn’t put on the side of a bus

If we can’t ensure that kids don’t go hungry then WTF is the point in civilisation?
