Richard Murphy asks "When are we going to get as scared witless as we should be?" "I can worry about Trump, fascism, neoliberal failure and more. But they're all lower-order issues compared to climate change, and what worries me is that it is not being talked about by almost anyone, whilst the fascists even deny it is happening." #climatecrisis https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2026/07/25/when-are-we-going-to-get-as-scared-witless-as-we-should-be/#gsc.tab=0

While historically Luddites were wrong: Instead of fighting against the capitalist system of exploitation, they directed their anger against the machines. With AI the situation is slightly different. AI poses an existential threat to humanity."

&quot;After 20 years of an SNP government Scotland needs change.&quot; Anas Sarwar. The idea that Labour could bring about the change that Scotland needs is obvious flapdoodle. The change that Scotland needs is independence. #scottisIndependence
