Lover of honesty and fairness. Rather take the time to get something (as far as possible), rather than rush to a hasty conclusion.
Enjoy all music (well maybe not opera).

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

This gang of sex abusers preyed on young children in Walsall, and got away with it for years. What could possibly explain the failure by Nigel Farage, Elon Musk and the Tories to call for a public inquiry about it?

These were all JOURNALISTS !!

When 12 people were killed in Charlie Hebdo attacks, World Leaders thronged to Paris for a Solidarity March.

But no world leader has organised a march to protest killing of more than 200 journalists in Gaza.

On the one side you have Oxfam, the UN, the WHO, unicef, MSF.

On the other you have suella braverman and sadly the current government.

Be on the right side of history.

We’re getting a horrific glimpse at the possible future. Widespread, cataclysmic climate change tragedies made worse by austerity and blamed on minorities by the Right, who will use their power to enable the wealth class as they continue to profit

It doesn’t have to be this way. We can change this.

The UK is short of prison places and chronically short of doctors, so what do we do? Jail a doctor for non violent direct action taken to highlight risk to all of us from climate emergency 🤷‍♀️

Know all these Tories screaming about a second public inquiry? It’s a racist dog whistle. They know full well there’s already been an inquiry, it ran for 7 years, cost £200m and the Tory govt didn’t implement a single recommendation. So that’s what you remind them every time they lie.

I mean it’s sort of amazing that the incoming US President has basically said he’s going to declare war on Denmark, annex Canada and rename bits of the globe to his liking and broadcast news is just rolling with it like he’s delivered a sombre and thoughtful policy announcement. Absolute insanity.

Think of the time being wasted by diplomats and experts in Europe and Latin America, as they start planning how to counter American attacks on Panama or Greenland. Time that could be spent thinking about a unified response to Russia and China.
