Brendan is a carer. He looks after the elderly and vulnerable in Middlesbrough. After he finished work, this is how he found his car.

Inequitable distribution of income/wealth fuels social unrest. Richest 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined. Bottom 50% of the population has less than 5% of wealth. Wages taxed at higher rates than capital gains. Change politics. leftfootforward.org/2024/08/how-th…

We welcome the announcement today that teachers will be awarded a fully funded 5.5% pay award. This is a necessary first step in reversing the real terms cuts inflicted upon the profession over the last 14 years. #ValueEducators 1/3🧵

This is what AIB #asbestos packers look like. In this case under a window sill. They can also be found around the window frame, under external sills, around doors, architraves…OK anywhere!

Renovating Parliament will cost up to £25bn. The Burj Khalifa the tallest building in the world cost £1.5bn to build. The corruption in the UK is insane, I bet they spend £0.5bn and steal £24.5bn.

"Thames Water Stake Written Off by Australian Shareholder." Queensland govt has written off their whole investment in @thameswater. Ontario pension fund did the same. USS written off 2/3 of theirs. Over 56% of TW shares now worthless. Tick tock...💥 bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

United Learning's pensions proposals "sound reasonable - until you consider the history. In late 80s/ early 1990s, 1m+ people voluntarily left generous company pensions schemes for inferior defined contrib plans, with largely disastrous results." FT piece: ft.com/content/661abf…

Putting qs to a multi-academy trust, which has 7 schools (4 secondary, 3 primary), but also has a CEO, CFO and director of education, for 8,000 pupils. Scale this up for the country, and you would get around 1,000 directors of ed, for eg,+1,000 CEOs. Efficient use of resources?

Shoplifting crackdown expected to be unveiled. What about corporate pickpocketing? Corporations pick our pockets - water, oil, gas, electricity food, rail, insurance, banks and more. No curbs on profiteering as corporations fund political parties. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Rail was privatised with the claim that it would end subsidies. Reality: Public Subsidy. 2023, £11.9bn 2022, £13.3bn 2021, £16.9bn 2020, £6.5bn 2019, £4.3bn 2018, £4bn 2017, £3.4bn 2016, £4.8bn 2015, £4.8bn 2014, £5.3bn £75.2bn subsidy + high fares = Profits. Must nationalise.

The UK state pension, worst in the world. But still too high so must retire at 68, also the highest in the world. But that’s not enough so must defund social care and the NHS so you die sooner. You are worthless to them.

Labour can end austerity at a stroke – by taxing the rich and taxing them hard. Rich need to be taxed more: They subvert democracy through bribes/donations Cause most carbon emissions Benefitted the most from tax cuts, subsidies Cause inequalities theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

NASUWT is joining with "other unions" in demanding that England's largest academy trust, United Learning, drops its pension plans, states press release. UL is offering teachers the change to get a pay boost in exchange for less generous pensions.
