Minimum service level agreements for public services an excellent idea
Let’s set up citizens’ assemblies to draw them up

No words are strong enough to criticize the decision to open a new *coal mine* in the middle of a *climate emergency*
Tory claims to global leadership on climate revealed as hypocritical farce

Furious to hear @wato supporting this narrative
People don’t want to send public money to private health companies
We want #OURNHS funded properly
RT @GreenPartyMolly: A young doctor friend of mine said that the starving of the NHS is a deliberate policy to enable privatization
He worked in the very ward where Boris Johnson was in hospital with Covid
Disgraceful betrayal of the very best in our society

@GillianKeegan says: lots of support in Whitehaven for new coal mine
Just like in Poland, Australia, South Africa etc etc
We should work with others globally to address the climate emergency
Instead we are condemning our children and theirs to an impossible future

@tonywestonuk @richyphillips @Davejones0305 You seem to have responded to my genuine question with a series of questions
Have your read GP monetary policy? We agree about banks creating money
Is the limit just productive resources or the reaction of market traders?
Would be interested to have an answer

@tonywestonuk @richyphillips @Davejones0305 Hi Tony. Can I just check whether you think there is any limit on how much money governments can create? If it is not limitlesss, how would we know when we’ve reached the limit?

@LukePollard The biggest problem is with the Commons. What about electing MPs by a fair system where all votes count and all count equally? It’s what you party members want, Luke
