The moral of the story is a simple one:

If you mistreat large swathes of the population, force them into poverty, overwork and underpay them.

They will fall ill.

Fourteen years of Tory austerity is the cause, not a pandemic of Münchausen, laziness or mythomania.

You did this.

Over 14 years we’ve endured

Austerity and its consequences

The selling in of Brexit and its consequences

Truss’ premiership…

Hundreds of millions spent on flying no one to Rwanda

Yet they’ve blamed the state of the country on foreigners. Then refugees.

Now …the sick

Dear 🇬🇧,

Your govt wants you to think we’re living in a “sicknote culture” due to laziness or GPs too eager to sign ppl off work. Don’t let them gaslight you. The truth — from experts @Lu_Hiam and Sir Michael Marmot — is that Austerity made us sick. This is the Tory legacy.

#SOSNHS

The culture of sickness in the UK is Westminster.

Tory austerity unopposed by those on the Labour right.

#sicknote

This clamping down on the sicknote culture.
Do you remember when people with #Schizophrenia or #Autism or Cerebral Palsy did this lot? Or dumped shit in the rivers, run down the #NHS and public services or imposed years of #Austerity on us or corruption or broke lockdown rules?

Memo to Sunak.
❌ The UK is not a sick note country.
❌ It is decades of neoliberalism & austerity that have broken this country.
✅We need investment in people & services.
✅We need a right to good food & homes.
✅We need a publicly owned NHS
✅In short: Socialism.

LOL Rishi really said “after me there will be no more conservative PMs!” 😂

“People aren’t sicker than they were 10 years ago”

Checks notes: 📝 👀

- A decade of austerity comment
- An underfunded and declining NHS
- A mishandled pandemic
- Economic downturn

Fair enough.

The Truth Behind Austerity

The interesting thing about IMF and related austerity measures is they never bother to cap any politicians salaries. I find this fascinating.

I mean, they are very concerned about cutting costs right?

Some people think that dissing Starmer will let the Tories in 😄

It must be awful to get past the age of 18 and still think he offers anything like an alternative to austerity, privately-funded, crappy services, Draconian cuts and bullshit.

He's a spiteful, hateful Tory.

Protesters in Argentina protest austerity measures implemented by President Javier Milei.

Naturally they were attacked with water cannons because nothing screams no government like being assaulted by the government.

This guy is not a libertarian. He is a Bill Clinton style…

'People aren't three times as sick as they were in 2010!' Yeah, because nothing's happened since then, like, I don't know, brutal austerity, a global pandemic and a general willingness to talk about mental health more. Must just be scroungers.

You remember back in 2008 when decent hard working people feared that their banks would collapse with their savings inside? How many people’s mental health problems relate to this and the following Tory austerity years? Sunak took his profits - now he’s whipping his victims back.

Austerity from Osborne caused people to lose their minds and Sunak blames the victims...?
This from today's FT:

Westminster's values are not Scotland's values.

If the choice is tax cuts for the rich or investment in public services, I choose public services.

If the choice is austerity or investment in the NHS, I choose investment in our NHS.

The SNP will always stand up for Scotland.

Today I learned you can sometimes see the tiny toad prop from Trust Thomas on one of the lily pads by the S3 Watermill

The 'antisemitism crisis' is Starmer's foundational myth.
Take that away and what is there?
Re-heated Thatcherism, Zionism without qualification, austerity and NHS privatisation, all brought to you by some of the most compromised and corrupt officials ever to walk the earth.

Smoking kills.
Austerity kills.
Let's ban austerity.

Maa Baglamukhi is a unique blend of radiance who can be seen performing rigorous austerity and meditation.

Nowadays our oligarchs are just laughing their *asses* off & seeing what they can get away with. Their psychotic austerity programs are spreading to the whole world while they double prices on basics and commit genocide at will because they know no one will do anything about it.
