I was one of those excluded and only the support of my family kept me above board and despite all that I ended up in an IVA I’ve literally only just cleared this month after 5 years.
ACTION IS REQUIRED ITS NOT TOO LATE!!!!

🚨 ANDY BURNHAM, PLEASE REMEMBER THE PROMISES YOU MADE TO EXCLUDEDUK! 🚨
Six and a half years. 3.8 million taxpayers. Countless promises. Still no justice.
Prime Minister Andy Burnham, this video is a reminder of the commitments you have made to ExcludedUK and the millions of taxpayers who were denied parity of Covid-19 financial support.
You have been one of our loudest and most consistent political champions since the beginning of our campaign.
You have listened to our stories, spoken at our events, stood alongside our members and repeatedly acknowledged the devastating injustice we have suffered.
You even co-hosted several events with our Head of ExcludedUK, Jennifer Griffiths, including the livestream in June 2024, when you told us:
🗣️ “The public see you and the public support you.”
🗣️ “The passage of time doesn’t change that.”
🗣️ “The level of injustice that you have faced is indefensible.”
🗣️ “We will work with you to make sure that the excluded is recognised as one of the injustices that this country needs to rectify.”
You also spoke about financial remedies that could be “fair, proportionate and doable.”
Those words gave people hope, Andy. Real hope.
For some of our members, that hope was the very thing that kept them going when everything else seemed lost.
But the years have passed. Businesses have disappeared. Homes have been lost. Families have been torn apart. Tragically, we know of more than 40 people who died by suicide, with exclusion contributing to the devastating circumstances they faced.
We cannot bring those people back. But we CAN honour their memories by ensuring that this injustice is finally acknowledged and addressed.
Today, you are no longer campaigning from outside Westminster.
You are the Prime Minister.
We understand that financial redress requires careful consideration, political will and public money.
But an apology costs NOTHING.
Not a penny.
Yet even that basic acknowledgement of what happened to 3.8 million hardworking, taxpaying people has still not been forthcoming.
We are asking you to honour your commitments:
✅ Deliver a full and frank public apology
✅ Meet with ExcludedUK, our APPG and representatives of the bereaved families and those who survived suicide attempts
✅ Work with us towards a fair, proportionate and achievable financial remedy
✅ Recognise the devastating and continuing consequences of exclusion
Andy, you once told us that the passage of time does not change the injustice. We agree.
We haven't forgotten your words, and we haven't given up on you.
Please don't give up on us.
🎥 WATCH THE VIDEO. LISTEN TO YOUR OWN WORDS. REMEMBER THE PEOPLE YOU PROMISED TO HELP.

Dutifully paid in. Deliberately left out.

Badenoch has forgotten that Thatcher sold off the family silver, Cameron ruined public services with austerity, Johnson ruined the economy for a generation with his Brexit deal. Then he pissed £billions up the wall with dodgy Covid loans and PPE contracts.
Then we had Mad Lizzy!

Charles Kushner, Jared’s father, pleaded guilty to 18 counts of tax evasion and witness tampering. He hired a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, filmed it, sent the tape to his sister. Trump pardoned him and made him ambassador to France and Monaco.

Standard behaviour from the @Conservatives. They did it again with the "VIP lane" during Covid, gave our money away to their rich pals.
That Tory cabinet should all be in prison, and if @andyburnham had balls he'd launch a criminal investigation.

US energy company execs have resigned in disgust as the Trump family is caught secretly expediting the funneling of $25 billion from a sanctioned Russian energy giant in exchange for allowing Russians to obtain a natural gas project in Alaska.
According to investigations by The New York Times and Financial Times, Russia's Novatek allegedly concealed its financial involvement in the American project through a UAE-linked intermediary.
Gentry Beach, a longtime Trump ally and close friend of Donald Trump Jr., signed an agreement with Novatek to pursue natural gas development in Alaska. Reuters documented the arrangement in February.
Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin discussed this cooperation on the Alaska energy project with Trump's representatives, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, during negotiations involving Russia and Ukraine.
The controversy deepened when Polar Train LNG's CEO, Joel Riddle, raised concerns about concealed Russian financing and possible sanctions violations. He departed in September, followed by other senior executives.
The Financial Times also described discussions about a potential arrangement under which Novatek would provide technology for the Alaska project in exchange for sanctions relief benefiting its Arctic LNG 2 development in Siberia.
According to The New York Times, Riddle and two other departing executives warned the Trump administration about the Russian financing and urged officials to investigate.
The White House maintains that the project was mentioned only briefly and that no detailed discussions took place. There is no established evidence that Kushner or Witkoff knew about the allegedly concealed financing. Polar Train LNG denies wrongdoing.
The central question is how a sanctioned Russian energy company became involved in a major American energy venture while Putin was discussing potential economic cooperation with Trump's representatives and a longtime Trump family associate was pursuing a separate agreement with the same Russian company.
Selling Alaska to the Russians or selling Ukraine to the Russians - to the Trump family it's all the same.

Why aren't Boris Johnson, Matt Hancock and Helen Whately not under investigation for mass manslaughter? @andyburnham
The fact that they aren't is deeply unsettling.
Are government ministers immune from prosecution?
Do we have no protection against government misconduct?
Adam retweeted
It takes a special kind of pandering, grovelling, spineless, sycophantic fucking CUNT to call Vladimir Putin a “humanitarian.”
Take a victory lap Steve Witkoff, you fucking cunt.

Not an ounce of contrition.
No apology, no guilt, no remorse.
Covid inquiry?
Tens of thousands of needless deaths?
Water off a duck's back.
It was only the little people anyway.

Criminal charges must be brought

Gove fixed it for Michelle Mone to be awarded a total of over £203 million from the public purse, for her dodgy contracts. He and Mone should be behind bars. Yet those two dirty crooks wander about without a care in the world.
Meanwhile so many people are struggling to buy food

Absolutely bang on from Keane.
How good City’s team is, or how good the individuals are, is a total irrelevance. It was all built on lies. None of it exists without them breaking the rules. Literally every single game they’ve won since 2009 is pointless.
