- The 50 wealthiest families in the UK own more than 34 million people combined. That level of inequality is totally unsustainable. A wealth tax isn’t radical - it’s inevitable. And the Green Party will keep making the case.
- One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office. Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.
- Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government. Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’ I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.
- Zack Polanski, "Palantir.. £240 million contract last month" "That was lobbied by Global Counsel which is Peter Mandelson's lobbying group" "The idea that a defence company from the US has its fingerprints all over our healthcare system, alongside Peter Mandelson"
- Pleased to see the jury make this decision. We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries. People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

- HMRC are giving 1 million people a £100 penalty for filing their tax returns late, even if they don't owe ANY tax. Nadhim Zahawi dodged £3m in tax and repeatedly lied about it for 6 years. All HMRC did was make him pay the interest on it. Hard on you, a joke for them.
- Not in the Epstein files: - trans people - migrants and asylum seekers - people who arrive in small boats - benefits claimants In the Epstein files: - rich white guys who tell you (or pay people to tell you) to hate the people above

- Mandelson on course for a meeting with the Old Bill.
- "Hamish de Bretron-Gordon." Clearly a champion of the people. Join.greenparty.org.uk
- This bastion of moral virtue has opinions about the Green Party. Just remember that as they continue to attack us. This is who they are. Mask is off.
- It's rare to see how lobbyists operate. But the Epstein-Mandelson correspondence shows us what happens all the time: plutocrats and government ministers conspiring against the public interest. This is why all lobbying should be in the public domain, but despite Labour and Con promises, it's not. 🧵

- Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.
- People have to do jail time. Powerful people, who thought they were untouchable. They have to be arrested, tried, stripped of assets relating to their crimes, and sent to jail. Because if it doesn't happen, it will prove to voters that democracy is a sham. And then we're seriously fucked.

- How shocking. The Sunday Herald, 21 May 2000:

- I was letting Passport play in the water when it was 1”-2” deep, then I would fill the tub for myself The last time we did that, he decided to jump back in when I was in there, but there was no room to play This was the first time he got to have a full tub all to himself. #Caturday

- By-election latest: A Green Party source tells me the response in Gorton today has been so positive that they're reallocating resources to Denton. They claim ex-Labour voters say they can't vote for the party with Starmer as leader, so tactical voting doesn't come into it.
- Four mile walk with a single crutch today - out to Kings Tor from Princetown and back on the old railway - furthest I've ventured since my accident. Slow but steady. Light out there was pretty special as the rain clouds lifted.
- They tried intimidation. Minnesota answered with people.
