You guys know you could also read books by native authors and buy art from native artists on days that aren’t Thanksgiving or Indigenous Peoples Day, too, right?

Also, the land is still ours on the other days as well. 🍗🌽🥔🥧

The (obvious in advance) limits of the government's strategy since it took office: a budget in which the majority of individual items poll well, yet people think it is the most unfair budget since YouGov started polling on this question.
% who say each 2025 Budget policy was the 'right thing to do' (1/3)

Increase gambling taxes: 82%
Freeze rail fares: 82%
Reducing energy bills by £150 a year by reducing green levies: 75%
Increasing minimum wage: 71%
Mansion tax: 67%
Decreasing biz rates for retail/hospitality/leisure: 64%

"Settler colonisation is a structure, not an event" etc.
I keep on coming back to the irrefutable fact that the people in New Zealand that don't want to address the impact of colonisation and argue "it's in the past, the current generation are not responsible for that" continue to enjoy benefits that flowed directly from that colonisation.

Thanksgiving is, has always been, and will always be a celebration of genocide against Indigenous folks in what is now called the ‘us’ and the systems that allowed the genocide to occur and to be celebrated in the first place.

Windrush scandal victims lost their homes.

They were detained

They were deported

They lost everything and so did their children.

After days full of bad weather, yesterday our aircrew was able to start monitoring the situation in the Mediterranean again. Once again, we documented an illegal interception by Libyan militias. These unlawful practices do not go unnoticed.

Rachel Reeves' decision to lift the two-child limit on benefits is a hard-won, long overdue victory that will lift 350,000 children out of poverty.

However, it will make no difference to children whose parents are migrants and subject to NRPF (banned from claiming benefits).
