And then they become homeless and you take away their tents. And then they have no option but to commit a crime to get to prison. Meanwhile their children literally starve and freeze.
Benefit sanctions won't make a sick population well. It'll make it sicker.

@SangitaMyska says she's 'baffled' by Jeremy Hunt's logic, as it's said he wants to cut inheritance tax.

RT by @catherinerowett: Climate action: Whatever we're doing, it's just no enough. Time to stop incremental change and re-focus on transformation. But, are we ready to do what this takes? Probably not, so we have to shift mindsets first.

RT by @catherinerowett: The 'school run" in Israeli occupied West Bank has a completely different meaning as Palestinian children and parents are subjected to verbal and physical abuse from Jewish settlers and Israeli soldiers as they cross checkpoints going to and from school.

Where are all the people who say we need to look after our own first? It seems there's an awful lot of priority placed on being cruel to our own and *even more cruel* to desperate people fleeing even worse horrors.

RT by @catherinerowett: At the National Trust AGM Lord Sumption, a Council candidate backed by Restore Trust, claimed the Trustees select the Council themselves. This was immediately corrected by an NT lawyer - members elect the Council. The Telegraph printed it anyway. Today a tiny, garbled correction.

RT by @catherinerowett: Here's a reminder for you that @David_Cameron tripled university tuition fees from £1k to £3k and then he did it again - tripling them to £9k. In case you'd forgotten, Cameron received his Oxford tuition absolutely free. This presumably enabled him to buy his Bullingdon Club tails for today's equivalent of £5700. Cameron is a child of complete privilege. #NeverVoteConservative

What the Conservatives mean by "fairness" is penalising the poor and those too ill to work, or too hungry to think, or too far away to get to their appointment.
What the Green Party means by fairness is a level playing field where those who are disadvantaged get more help.

It's no good waiting till this "war" ends to get rid of Netenyahu. They need to get him out now, before the genocide goes any further. Israel is going to carry the consequences of waiting too long.

RT by @catherinerowett: It’s great that there’s an acceptance of the need to achieve net zero.
But it’s also clear that many experts in housing, transport etc. assume that business-as-usual but greener will suffice.
Reality is we need rapid, radical, systemic, global change.
Will they wake up in time?
