Speaking on @democracynow about the UKs new Prime Minister @elizabeth.truss.mp Johnson was disgusting, Truss is terrifying. Cold, shallow, mannered, stiff, but with the glitter of absolute certainty in pursuit of the most damaging policies imaginable in a nominal democracy. She'll go as far as electoral politics allow in transferring wealth from the poor to the rich, in opening the floodgates for pollution and greenhouse gases, in dismembering the NHS, in persecuting asylum seekers and scapegoating others to distract from the impact of her policies. #ukpolitics #liztruss #inequality #tradeunion #workersrights #workingclass #nhs #conservatives #toryparty #conservativeparty #costofliving #crisis #climateemergency #energybills #peopleandplanet #peoplebeforeprofit #corporategreed #corruption
