When we understand the full scope of austerity, we see it not as an event, like the removal of winter fuel allowances, but as a system structured to ensure a continuation of wealth passing to the already wealthy and more punishment for the society's most marginalised. 8/9

Of course, the answer is clear. Bourgeois liberal democracy is one trench in a complex of defensive positions facing the working class. Governments in the imperial core are only electable if they carry out the orders of state monopoly finance capitalism. And its hegemon the USA.
For 14 years we’ve repeatedly heard politicians talk about the "tough choice" of austerity. Why is it always the working class hit by these "tough choices", and not UK billionaires who have seen their wealth increase threefold in the past decade to £684,000,000,000?

A true champion of the working man
As President I hold the power to summon the Dáil as well as dissolve it. So as i said before, I would have all the answers the people of Ireland seek from these thieves of the working man, these disrupters of the family unit, these destructors of small businesses, and on and on and on! These charlatans in their positions of power would be summoned to answer to the people of Ireland and I would have it done by day end. Or I would be left with no choice but to dissolve the Dáil entirely. Stop the train until. The people of Ireland deserve the answers they seek. Point blank. This would be my power as President. I know very well. Ireland needs an active President employed wholly by the people of Ireland. It is me. I am the only logical choice. 2025 is upcoming…

James O'Brien did everythign in his power to install the liar-in-chief Starmer and all that follows from that. He was preprared to smear a movement of half a million with Jew-hate to do it. He represents all that is wrong with our politics and media, in one smug little package.

#OnThisDay 1979: Fred Dibnah came to national attention with the broadcast of Fred Dibnah: Steeplejack. The man and his remarkable endeavours would return to our screens many more times, like in 1982 when he shimmied up the spire of Bury Parish Church to replace the weathervane.

"There are three forms of austerity: fiscal, industrial, and monetary. They reinforce each other to reduce workers' consumption and power while solidifying the wealth and power of the wealthiest" ⁦@Scotonomics1⁩ on #austerity #economics thenational.scot/news/245610…

A neoliberal Trojan horse. There has never been a UBI trial anywhere, you can’t detect macro effects in a micro trial. Give a few people more money = guaranteed happiness. Give the whole country same = reset relative poverty level by the value of UBI & other destabilising effects

Just seen the news about Sol Bamba; a truly happy soul who had admirers well beyond the fan-bases of the clubs he played for. RIP. 😢
