At a time of grotesque inequality, this is surely a no-brainer. It’s simply wrong that many working people are paying a higher effective tax rate than some of the very wealthiest in our society theguardian.com/news/2023/ma…

2% tax on UK rich list families ‘could raise £22bn a year’

Campaigners for tax reform say similar levies in Europe have helped to reduce inequality

Growing native plants in gardens and communities can really boost biodiversity. Plants support all sorts of insect, bird and mammal species – and native plants are particularly beneficial! Ten native (UK) plants to grow: bit.ly/3MAjQiN #nature

💥More than half of voters now want Britain to forge closer ties with EU - a majority in *every* constituency - it’s time for politicians to catch up, make this case to the electorate & to begin the journey towards full membership when the time & conditions are right #JoinEU

.@SteveBarclay giving master class on #BBCLauraK demonstrating exactly why people are turned off politics & why ministers are held in such contempt. His failure to admit there are *not* 40 new hospitals fools nobody. Truth matters - they’re not fit to govern #GeneralElectionNow

Spot on from @Pontifex. We know the fossil fuel era is over - yet UK Govt still blindly pursues a new coal mine in Cumbria, over 100 new oil & gas licences and could approve climate-wrecking #Rosebank. All new fossil fuels simply must stay in the ground. reuters.com/business/environ…

So many councils are still over-mowing public grassy areas. Wildflowers - crucial lifelines for pollinators - mown down to lifeless, 'tidy' grass deserts. Who wants their council to join those increasingly giving nature a chance instead?
