Stop it Pesto .. Just stop with your blatant Tory Propaganda, you’ve even included your Master @BorisJohnson into that tweet of yours Tweet. That’s not a thread you’ve just written, it’s an Ode of your undying love for your Boy Johnson. Why @ Johnson, did D Cummings stipulate ?

An epic misrepresentation of the situation. Dishing out billions to private contractors close to the ruling party while denying food to the poorest children is a lot of things but it is not Castro style socialism. This is nonsense.

The best way to fix #UniversalCredit is to make it actually 'universal' (to each *individual*) and paid in 'credit' by turning it into a universal, unconditional #basicincome x.com/CommonsWorkPen/status/…

Congrats Jeremy Hunt our long-serving Health Secretary. Since you've been in the job the number of people waiting more than four hours in A&E is up 842%, the number of people waiting over two weeks for urgent cancer treatment has more than doubled and the NHS has lost 7000 beds.

I am seriously worried about education standards in this country. Every time I talk about structural inequality and entrenched privilege so many people are totally unable to differentiate between anecdotal or their own personal experience and the weight of all available evidence. x.com/piersmorgan/status/100…

Hmmm..
As someone who had private & state education (5yrs of each), I don't think exam results alone give much of an insight into someone's intelligence, talent or ability to succeed.
Determination is the key factor to achievement.
If you want it enough, you'll get it. x.com/DavidLammy/status/1001…

Painfully excellent article detailing the impact of austerity in the UK. As a #basicincome advocate I get told it is too radical a shift - frankly the austerity agenda to cut public spending has been the most radical change to the UK we have seen in a long tkme x.com/petersgoodman/status/1…

Don't miss this dank podcast about #coops and workforce #automation. The question for the future is who owns #thosemeans? Is it union busting man children or is it the working class? @ntnsndr joins us to discuss. futureleft.org/home/2018/5/2…
