We’re not a two-party country but a diverse country
We need an electoral system that reflects this

This looks like an appointment designed to generate puns
Presumably whether your post arrives on time will now be a lottery
It's hard to see how a man whose experienced comes from running a gambling outfit can solve the problems of the Post Office

Hi

Work is only good for your mental health if you are treated well at work
Being exploited, bullied and abused can lie at the heart of mental ill health - in the workplace or anywhere else
As can waiting in pain for an operation
Ignoring this is just cruelty

Hi

I don't want to complain to
https://nitter.privacydev.net/Ofcom
but this looks like it breaks their rules for the short campaign
Also unfortunate that you portray this as a campaign between men. Surely not appropriate in 2024
Why no pic of

Hi
https://nitter.privacydev.net/FactCheck
Luke Johnson said on the Kuenssberg programme that only 3% of our global energy demand comes from renewables
I think the proportion for electricity is around 30% but does his number stuck up at all?
Where does it come from?

Young people are faced with climate catastrophe and shit jobs
They earn relatively less and pay more for everything, especially housing
No wonder they’re depressed
We need to give them more hope and start sharing more of the country’s wealth with them

Why on earth would a government reject the chance for young people to live and work in the EU?
Ideology is trashing their opportunities
And sadly Labour agree
Greens would embrace a mobility agreement as a step towards EU membership

🦫 Starmer is going to allow development on ‘unattractive’ areas of the greenbelt
🐛 But unattractive to who?
🦔 Places where we aren’t can be very attractive to wildlife
🐞 Which is the point about greenbelt

While we were sewing scrubs or making sure our neighbours were OK . . .
Some Tory councillors and cronies were getting fat off PPE contracts
Many of which didn’t deliver
This money must be clawed back and invested for benefit of us all not to finance their plush country homes

I trust that
https://nitter.privacydev.net/Ed_Miliband
understands the climate emergency and is committed to tackling it
But he has been trapped in Reeves’s fiscal straitjacket and forced to abandon £28bn green investment
Why not tax wealth fairly to find the tens of billions needed to save our climate?

Drug shortages, now normal in UK, made worse by Brexit
‘some companies removing the UK from their supply chains’
‘UK’s exit from single market has disrupted previously smooth supply of drugs’
Something else they didn’t put on the side of a bus

Great to hear a dialogue on foreign policy and security between UK's

Disappointed
https://nitter.privacydev.net/ChrisMasonBBC
wasted his time and our money interviewing Liz Truss
Shocking that the Tories made her our PM
She sees no role for the UN, thinks we shouldn’t trade with China, and blames Bank of England
Her cosiness with far right puts her beyond the pale
[2024-04-16 07:06 UTC]
Very quickly, and without any Parliamentary debate
Who is making these decisions that create so much risk for all of us?
Unelected 'Lord' Cameron, or weakened PM Sunak?
Deeply disturbing

It’s depressing beyond belief that Starmer will find the money for nuclear weapons
But not to end the two-child benefit cap
What kind of country have they got in store for us all?

Hey,
https://nitter.privacydev.net/MelJStride
Work is only good for you if you are treated with dignity and respect
The current exploitative workplace is one of the causes of the mental health crisis
[2024-04-08 07:20 UTC]
Hi
https://nitter.privacydev.net/JustinOnWeb
I think you may have missed an important point:
You burn fossil fuels and they’re gone; rare metals can mostly be recycled
This is why your interviewee mentioned the circular economy
Also, we need to shift to social solutions, e.g. public transport not cars
