Everywhere I’ve worked there’s always been at least one bully, misogynist and/or or scheming witch.

Can’t say I’ve ever been asked to give all that info. Just name and first line of my address - but my pharmacy knows me am now and they no longer ask.

Morning all! It’s a grey day here. Imminently, I must have a poke around in the back end 😳 of the club website. Then this afternoon I have a meeting to be shown the next phase of learning how to admin it. This evening I have a Zoom presentation to watch.

Before all the leaves have fallen, there will be more and more beautiful colours to enjoy. I enjoy the tree skeletons, too. And when it snows it looks like Narnia.

685,000 Britons has wealth of £2.8 trillion, 48m have £2.4trn.

4 people have more wealth than 20m Britons.

Bottom 50% of the population has 5% of wealth, the bottom fifth only 0.5%.

Rich buy political parties, legislators; hold govts to ransom.

Can't get economic growth without redistribution.

Rachel Reeves’ budget must reduce inequalities and increase spending capacity of the masses

This is how to secure sustained economic growth

I was just 🥱😴 but then I saw a video of a Russian drone strike on a kindergarten and now I’m 🤬🤬🤬💔

What do Putin and Netanyahu have in common? Loads - but deliberate mass murder of babies and children - can they sink much lower? 🤬🤬🤬

A hand painted Japanese coffee set left to me by my great aunt Daisy (Marguerite). It was brought back to her by a sea captain she dated but didn’t marry.

PR Hype.

Water firms in England could face harsher sewage fines.

Firms still pay dividends, mega exec pay

Fines have been virtually abolished. Amounts handed back to firms for environmental improvements. They displace investment, improve balance sheet.

Must remove the profit motive. Nationalise.
