A Tory MP is going on “I’m a celebrity” in the certain knowledge his £82,000 job awaits him on his return.

Remember that when they call you lazy for working from home, or tell you that you’ve too many bank holidays.

Shell & BP made £15 billion profit in just 13 weeks.

Trading gas on the wholesale markets is proving lucrative.

Meanwhile your energy bill climbed 100% in the last year.

This greed must be halted with price cuts.

British Petrol have just this moment announced a tripling of their profits compared to the same quarter.

A whopping £7.1 billion profit in 13 weeks, that’s £78 million profit every single day.

They are ripping us all off.

Tories use language of hate against refugees to shore up their vote during times they’re inflicting austerity on the rest of us

Thatcher said we were “swamped”
Cameron said they were a “swarm”
May used “go home” vans
Braverman calls it an “invasion”

The same language of hate.

The NHS is paying £2bn a year to private hospitals to care for mental health patients because it does not have enough of its own beds.

They are intentionally gutting the NHS of resources to make it reliant on the private sector.

13,000 of those refugees crossing the English Channel in a boat, a year, are fleeing from a country that the UK has been at war with since 2001.

Stop creating refugees by starting wars.

On the 4th October Suella Braverman, Home Secretary, describe it as “her dream' & even her 'obsession', 'to see a Daily Telegraph front page, by Christmas, of the first deportation flight to Rwanda.'

Inhumane; brutal; disgusting. For those comments alone she is unfit for office.

The dehumanisation of refugees is the gateway our politicians & media have used to justify their ill treatment.

We need to rehumanise our attitude towards refugees. We need more empathy & care. Most of all, we need to uphold their human rights under international law.

The Tories cut 8 million bed spaces from the NHS reducing the number of patients hospitals can treat by 2 million a year.

They then handed a £10 billion contract to private hospitals to provide bed spaces.

See how it works?

In 2021, Superyacht sales surged 77% & in 2022 sales are 68% above a 13-year average.

There is no cost of living crisis for the super rich.

We need a proper luxury tax.

This Tory government will be as right wing as all the others.

They back austerity, deportations & tax cuts for bankers.

They oppose onshore wind & solar.

Shiny suits don’t alter the fact that this is still the nasty party.

Britain has 177 billionaires with an obscene wealth of £710 billion (up £57bn in a year).

Billionaires do not work harder than carers, nurses, teachers, doctors, construction workers, factory workers, shop assistants or other workers.

Tax the billionaires. They can afford it.
