Take a ride with me on the 30,000 mile journey the cod in a fish finger takes between being caught off the coast of Scotland and consumed in a British home 🤯
Promise I'm not making this up👇

The 30,000-mile fish finger
There’s a good chance the cod on your child’s plate has been around the world and back. Not that you’d learn any of that from the label...

Sultana’s comments are so offensive on so many levels. You can’t “both sides” Putin & Zelenskiy. You can’t speak over the voices of Ukrainian workers who are on the frontlines fighting for democracy & workers rights.
It is Putin and his acolytes who benefit from this war.

We take no joy criticising a young left-wing UK political figure who has often spoken up for workers' rights and progressive causes. But these barely coherent comments from Zarah Sultana on Ukraine sum up much of what is wrong with her wing of the left www.instagram.com/reel/DQT62ys...

I’ve been thinking a lot about the Corbyn stuff. I never wanted to have to re litigate it but since he’s back attempting leadership of sorts & replicating similar patterns of passive discrimination towards trans people, I wanted to vocalise the heart of what my issue with him is & why it still hurts

I cannot state this strongly enough: If you are upset about the way this government is treating trans people and immigrants, and you have a Labour MP, for God sake write to them.

TLDR: Britain’s cluelessness & denial on the threat from Russia continues. And on-Brexit messaging still trumps urgent national security concerns. Just as it did with the Tories. It’s not so much disappointing as genuinely scary. What will it actually take?
