Seems the govt doesn’t understand the word protected. There’s a lot that going off

🚨SHOCKING FACT: Did you know there are 377 Marine Protected Areas in UK waters?

And the UK government allows industrial fishing in 374 of them.

See the problem here?

There is a figure that is put on human life, I bet it’s low 5 figures. As a society we have a contract that we all adhere to, we don’t leave anyone behind. Fuck farage and the rest of the monsters and the horse they rode in on

Quite the spectacle to see media outlets who've cheered on austerity saying 'oh god, SEND spending is out of control'. Well, if you gut councils, fail to provide local special school spaces, collapse SureStart and leave public/collective transport to rot, that's what happens. Cuts are expensive

Sent my response back to southern housing. Waved my dick around a bit now that I bagged a new job in the city as a highest rate tax payer I get to decide how they’re spent right? That’s how it works these days based on what I’ve seen. It’s not a card I’ll likely get to play again and I got fomo 😂

FarRage wants us to get bored asking who funded his house.

I’m not getting bored I’m getting angrier. Our media are hopeless (not news but worth saying again). FarRage smirks his way through Russian betrayal and dodgy house deals.

He is a Traitor.

In the month since I was elected leader of the Green Party, we have gained a new member equivalent of every single minute. 24/7.

We're all smiling. But we've also got a big job to do.

Let's make hope normal again.

The best way to defeat Reform is for millions of people to hear a version of this message:

"Farage's Brexit made you poorer. Don't let him do it again"

Got my response for @southernhousing.bsky.social sorted, Gemma is happy with it. I’ve swung my dick a little bit but then as I’m now the highest rate tax payer that’s what you do isn’t it?

They can dismiss me but I’ve gone from a mining village to investment banking. I’ll fight, I have resources 2

Anyone else getting Hitchcock style vibes from this. It’s all a bit Norman bates now. His little fox on his head won’t take too much sculpting, stick him a dress and he’s a ringer for his mum 😂

“Donnie was always a vile little pervert. Fred and I insisted he wear a turtleneck and a scarf. Fred would say, ‘Is that scarf too tight?’ to which I’d reply, ‘He’s still talking and doing disgusting things to his neck, so no.’”

I’ll bet my left nut it was loophole ridden and not worth the paper it was written on. Fucking osbourne 😂 I got shit to do Charlie my friend. It’s been fun. The rich need to pay. The son of a carpet fitter from a mining village in Barnsley now is the top 1% of earners. They’re scared of us,I’m proof

Yeah but the really wealthy that we refuse to tax did. It was all to make us a tax haven and avoid eu regulations on loads of shit. And as far as I’m concerned they can fuck off elsewhere. The public services and schools and infrastructure that provide a healthy educated workforce. They can pay

Why don’t they just put him in a home, he wouldn’t know any different. It’ll be a long time until that office is truly respected again

I’ve always said William will likely be the last king of England. Well become republic, there’s plenty of history both past and present to ensure that we don’t end up with a dictatorship. All it takes is will. The political will be there next decade or so if not already

As long as I keep my mouth shut and my head down I won’t ever want for anything again. Once in the banking industry, and it’s hard to break into, but what I’m told is once you’re in you’re in. There is more than enough wealth to tax. I’d like to see IR35 abolished. And like I said taxes spent proper

It ain’t a tax on ambition. I can wave my dick around now I earn more than the pm and I bet he doesn’t get taxed 8k a week. I want it spent on the nhs and housing and schools. My life is more than a working class kid could have dreamed. The media can suck it and interview someone with ambition. Me

Scaifytime - WOUNDEDSPiRiT - lead guitarist @scaifytime.bsky.social · 1d

My take home is less than my tax. There are thousands of talented people that can fill the positions. Any physical assets they own such as land and property they can’t take abroad with them. All it needs is a set of bollocks. What I earn is a far cry from the factory work that i had when I left 🏫
