Last year NHS trusts paid out £457 million to private companies in interest alone - equivalent to 15,000 nurses' salaries. This is an absolute disgrace. https://t.co/dGmy8PP9G0

We shouldn’t let this be buried by other news today. Foodbank charity Trussell Trust says that the need for foodbanks has outstripped donations for the first time. It has distributed 46% more emergency food parcels in August and September than at the same time in 2021.

New Chancellor, @Jeremy_Hunt acted today to stabilise the markets but will he extend this stability to families on low incomes? We're urging the government to uprate benefits by inflation to ensure people in the UK do not face historic levels of hardship.

And now where are we. Watching a spooked-out, wide-eyed, hastily-installed chancellor make a statement as if he's announcing a war, except that it's a war against the damage the government has inflicted on the country.

All Western countries whose citizens are in Evin prison must immediately call out Islamic Republic and make them accountable. Citizens from UK, Us, Sweden, Germany, France, Belgium and other countries are held at Evin. The lives of many Iranian prisoners is in danger. #MahsaAmini

Be our voice #EvinPrison

The responsibility for any loss of life in this fire at #Evin prison lies with Ali Khamenei and his evil regime. Some of Iran’s brightest minds and bravest hearts are unjustly held at Evin. We will hold Khamenei and his regime accountable for any harm to any and all of them.

a lot of innocent people (political prisoners) held in iran’s evin prison. now on fire, with gunshots heard.

I’ll second that

I'm on Universal Credit. I work full-time at home as a writer, 30 hours a week. I'm a single mum to a 10 year old and a live-in carer to my elderly mother. Apparently I should also be "going out to work"? Who looks after my son (outside school hours) & mum then? #universalcredit

Rishi Sunak is on the Rich List with his household’s £730 million fortune. A 3% tax on his wealth over £10m would recoup £22 million for the taxpayer. That would lift 22,000 families out of poverty. Sunak opposes Wealth Taxes.

Rail workers, post office workers, nurses, teachers, bus drivers, fire fighters, dock workers. They all want what you want- job security, decent pay, to be able to pay their bills, to raise a family. Back them all please. Their fight is your fight.

It's not a cost of living crisis so much as a rip-off crisis. People are being ripped off by energy companies, ripped off by landlords, ripped off by a government that channels benefits to the rich while watching the poor slide into destitution.
