#THREAD Britain is officially the second-most unhappy country on earth. Decades of neoliberal free-market ideology has destroyed communities & public services, driving selfishness, inequality, & polarisation. In the absence of good government, how can we become less miserable?
@BBCNews Erm who wrote this headline? Since when is racism described as "criticism"?
LED BY DONKEYS Truss and Johnson’s resignation Honours were a disgrace. It’s time to reform the House of Lords. My Honour was being asked to narrate this film by @ByDonkeys 🙌🏻 Thoughts on reform? RT
I keep going back to this Daily Mail story in which a postmaster who was financially ruined received only £8,000 compensation. How could that happen? taxpolicy.org.uk/2024/01/11/hss…
Gary Lineker has never given the Tories a six-figure donation, set up an £800,000 loan for Boris Johnson or stood as a Conservative council candidate. But the people who did are lecturing him on the need for impartiality at the BBC.
If Sunak has lost all his WhatsApp messages why did he bother launching a legal challenge in July to stop him having to hand them over to the inquiry???
Hi @McDonaldsUK. Do you think it is acceptable for your staff to soak the sleeping bags of homeless people in the middle of winter (or any other time of the year)? Disgusting behaviour. He wasn’t even outside your premises. @crisis_uk @Shelter #McDonalds #homelessness #london
Disappointed at the recent disappearance of the "Italiamo" artichoke hearts at #LidlGB ? Don't bother trying the "Deluxe" ones that have replaced them (at almost twice the price). The "Deluxe" ones are boiled to a mush, and are almost inedible. Straight to the bin.
Recommendations please for a solicitor experienced in stalking neighbour cases - intrusive CCTV, microphone pointed at garden, monitoring visitors, shouting abuse. Need advice based on experience of similar, not simply knowledge of the law. Pls DM me. #legaltwitter #solicitors
Neutral when it comes to Everton v Man Utd, so why do I find it SO satisfying to see Ashley Young concede a penalty because someone dived? #AshleyYoung @youngy18
First they put out a ‘D-Notice’ to stop the media reporting on SAS role in Gaza. Now they’ve blocked MPs from asking questions about RAF Akrotiri, the UK base on Cyprus facilitating arms transfers to Israel. Cover-up. Latest from me + @markcurtis30👇 declassifieduk.org/uk-government-…
Let's spare a thought for poor Jeremy, struggling with the ethics of cutting benefits for the poorest, already reeling under a cost of living crisis, in order to give a bigger tax-free windfall to the already-privileged children of dead millionaires. Difficult one.
'I'm not entirely sure that my colleagues have grasped the legal peril they are in,' says Tory MP Crispin Blunt. UK govt 'ought to be acting to restrain our allies from breaching international law.'

A delicious bit of lawyer-ing. Utterly.
#GreenManFest Tried to book tickets. Long wait then to the payment page. Only charged me £5, plus £1.75. I couldn't go back, so assumed it was some sort of reservation fee. Then got email saying I'd successfully paid for a charity donation! NO tickets! Now sold out.
Frank Hester - the man who donated £5m to the Tories several weeks back - received £137m from the Government from hidden contracts. goodlaw.social/oje
Nearly 2 weeks ago, I asked @DVLAgovuk if it considers ditching Single Justice Procedure prosecutions of motorists for not having vehicle licence/insurance when there's powerful mitigation. No response as yet. While I wait, here's some more questionable decisions to prosecute:
@BBCr4today @bbcnickrobinson @JustinOnWeb And live interviews with #MichelleMone and #MichaelGove on dodgy PPE contracts, #CharlotteOwen reflecting on her impressive contribution to public life, and #BorisJohnson on what it's like to holiday in Perugia courtesy of the KGB.
Andy Malkinson on the CCRC: “I feel an apology is the least I am owed, but it seems like the very body set up to address the system’s fallibility is labouring under the delusion that it is itself infallible. How many more people has it failed?” theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/a…
A defence barrister told a judge that a woman was too unattractive for her abuser husband to want to r*pe her. The judge found it funny and laughed. Please listen, RT and support - let's get these stories out there and blow the lid off the family court. anchor.fm/mckenziefriend

@ChirpyChet Of course it has nothing to do with the fact that over 100 Tory MPs are landlords making over £10k per year from letting their properties.
