🔴 Russian prison guards are torturing Ukrainian journalist Iryna Danylovych with 12 hours of blasting noise every single day.
Abducted in occupied Crimea and sentenced on sham charges, she was already left nearly deaf due to medical neglect.

The UK agreed to a deal in which the NHS has to pay £3bn a year more for US drugs.
The only thing we got was an agreement the UK would face no tariffs.
Now we are getting 15% tariffs on everything.
The deal must be torn up and no money stolen from the NHS.

Health Insurance doesn't cover you.
It doesn't even cover your children if they get sick.
It takes a huge amount of your money in 'insurance', then bankrupts you when you get sick anyway.
It's a con and it should be illegal.

"What used to be utilitarian vehicles for construction workers are now marketed to the American masses, with messages tailored to specific audiences. One common pitch centers on machismo. Automakers trumpet how some of their trucks have an 'aggressive appearance' or a 'piercing glare.'"
The rise of larger vehicles like SUVs and pickup trucks, with their taller hoods and larger blind zones, has contributed to a 75% increase in pedestrian and cyclist deaths since 2009.
Until we design better streets and ban these vehicles, people outside these vehicles will keep dying.

I am begging people to understand the reason you pay so much tax is because the richest pay so little.
The combined tax dodged by the richest 1% is more than the tax contribution of the bottom 70%.
If they paid their tax, you wouldn't have to pay any.

France is mandating solar panels on every large commercial car park in the country — turning millions of square metres of idle asphalt into one of Europe's most productive clean energy assets.
I have been mentioning this for months - they are shooting up on all the supermarket car parks.
