Each corporate sector bribes Congress. Their conflicting interests doom us to an early death on a dying planet with our children cursing our existence.

The 2023 European cereal harvest is set to be its lowest since 2007 – at 256 million tonnes, some 9.5% lower than the five-year average of 283 million tonnes, European farming organization Copa Cogeca said this week.

Harvests in Portugal, Spain and Italy, where temperatures have regularly topped 40°C in July, are expected to be hardest hit by the heatwave.

https://www.medialens.org/2023/a-death-sentence-for-people-and-ecosystems-the-climate-emergency-governments-and-the-public-enemy/

On a trip to Japan in 2014, approaching the third anniversary of the Fukishima nuclear disaster, Noam Chomsky told an audience that:

‘Governments regard their own citizens as their main enemy.’

What he meant was that states do not wish their own populations to know and understand the details

1/ We have a country in the UK that is in collapse. Workers in many sectors are striking for living wages, safe working conditions for themselves and the consumers of the services they provide, and for the opportunity to provide the level of service that their professionalism dictates, in the face of government cuts to funding. The government is the only agency that could solve this crisis, but rather than negotiate it is sitting on its hands.

Striking workers are telling the truth about Britain. No wonder politicians want to silence them
