Any politician who has the guts to make the rich pay for their crimes against humanity will have the backing of the people! If no politician will lead, the people will!

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

I've been following politics for 50+ years, I'm just a skint little person about s far removed from power as anyone.
However I could have told you Mandelson was a lying little grifter, just like Farage, Johnson etc
So what is it the people next to the power are seeing?

Well, this week proves that politics in the UK is corrupt to the core. Anyone voting for Labour, Tory or Lib dem need their heads looked.

I'm guessing with a 140 seat majority it's difficult to get anything done
All these people who’ve basically fvcked us all over - Truss, Mandelson,Johnson, Farage, Mone,et al - all drawing lucrative pensions from their various political appts whilst asking us to struggle along £900 a month - one of the lowest pensions in Europe.
Is there really nothing we can do about it?

Not sure ‘botched’ Brexit is the way to go. Particularly as Farage agrees, blames the Tories and threatens to make it even worse.
At some point you need to tell the truth. It’s not botched. It’s exactly what you get when you prioritise prejudice over pragmatism.

worth a reshare, apparently cleanups are never more than 10% effective - and spills are very much inevitable to the process so calling them “accidents” is questionable to say the least.

Why have I adopted #bird conservation as my focal cause?
I could just say "I like birds" but I wrote more words (in my mostly dormant personal blog).
On birds, but also on staying motivated when one lives itinerantly, enjoys learning, thinks about ethics, etc.
