Deterrence DOESN'T work if you use it. If you have use it, it clearly wasn't a deterrent!? How does this man not understand Mutually Assured Destruction.

šŸ’š The Green Party's wealth tax has the potential to raise billions of pounds for public services while helping close the inequality gap and build a fairer, greener country.

The Tories are about to drain the North Sea of any remaining oil and gas

Labourā€™s response? Oh well we wonā€™t extract anymore than that

Pathetic. Vote Green to save the planet

If you taxed every Billionaire in the UK so they only had Ā£1bn you would get Ā£1.1tn, an entire yearā€™s worth of tax revenue.

It would affect only 173 People.

Tax the Rich, theyā€™ve stolen all the money and dodged tax for decades.

Itā€˜s time for payback.

Follow me, I followback

Hundreds of new oil and gas licenses as the climate breaks down

This rump of a government is shovelling money to its cronies in its final months

How can Sunak look his daughters in the face as he destroys their future?

It's difficult to find the words for the contempt that should be shown for Rishi Sunak & his government today.

There are so many measures that need to be taken to tackle the climate emergency but at the very least - above all else - we need to stop making things so much worse.

Natural gas trading at 63p per therm, same as in May 2021 when average domestic energy bill was Ā£1,138. Now Ā£2,074.

900% profit hike at British gas. BP, Shell & others picking our pockets.

Govt cuts real wages, but no curbs on profiteering.

You know which side the govt is on.

UK grocery prices rising by average of 14.9%. Food and non-alcoholic drink prices up 17.3%. Many at more.

Profit margins at food companies (e.g. Unilever) up.

Govt response - cut real wages; hike income tax, NIC and interest rates.

No curbs on profiteering, no investigation.

Clueless and dishonest politicians in both Tory and Labour parties will tell you we ā€˜canā€™t affordā€™ to nationalise our public services.

The truth is, we canā€™t afford *not* to. Theyā€™re sucking us dry, and those politicians are in their pockets.

So, a tiny firm,with no experience in PPE, that was introduced via the ā€˜VIP laneā€™ by a Tory peer, pocketed Ā£20m+, did not deliver, changed its name, and, on being sued, its offshore parent company conveniently went into liquidation.

Seems legit. ~AA

It's obscene.

šŸ¤‘ British Gas owner Centrica has today reported operating profits of a staggering Ā£2.1bn.

Meanwhile, our bills soar.

āš”ļø Energy is an essential public service. Let's bring it into public hands, move away from fossil fuels and put people and planet before profit.

To state the screaming obvious, this study concludes that private equity takeover outcomes deliver obscene returns for them, reduced care for patients, poor outcomes for vulnerable & risk all over the place. Sadly predictable when profit VULTURES are put in charge of tiny chicks.
