THE AUSTERITY PROGRAMME WAS A POLITICAL CHOICE Imagine being a Tory voter in Surrey, knowing a vote for the Tories could be a vote to decrease economic funding in that area? I doubt any government other than the Tories would do such a deplorable thing...but in these troubled times?

This recent WHO report doesn’t hold back. It states in plain language that corporate practices are leading to millions of preventable deaths each year—in Europe alone. From strategic lobbying to weaken regulations to the subversion of science, there are many normally quiet parts spoken out loud.

Fifty years ago today, as impeachment hearings against President Richard Nixon were well underway in the House Judiciary Committee, the @washingtonpost.com published this Herblock editorial cartoon. Ultimately, nearly every Republican in Congress supported the Constitution. Today, not so much.

For 14 years, year on year, Tories cut everything. In 14 years, Tories borrowed £1.7 trillion, but spent nothing on services, infrastructure or investment. For 14 years, taxes increased, standards fell & only Tory cronies benefitted. Never trust a Tory. #NeverVoteConservative
