1/ Thread: Why #Starmer's "plan" isn't even close to a solution and will do nothing to tackle the root causes of problems in the energy market or inflation itself. #EnergyCrisis #EnergyPrices 
2/ It's only for six months:
There's nothing to stop energy companies immediately jacking up prices once the "freeze" ends. This underlines the problem that the "free market" does not work and cannot work in a natural monopoly like energy. #EnergyCrisis #EnergyPrices

3/ A policy by the establishment, for the establishment:
The plan is simply an attempt to cover over the cracks until the controversy dies down. It's therefore primarily a means of safeguarding the status quo rather than a genuine attempt to deal with the underlying issues.

just watched @SkyNews's report on israel and palestine, and the level they go to equate the actions of each is appalling. they said that 100 have been killed in gaza, and 8 killed in israel: including 2 children and 1 soldier. WHAT ABOUT THE 31 PALESTINIAN CHILDREN?! 1/6
no, they don't note that, because that stops their casus belli from being made. israel are defending themselves from palestinian attacks, and anything that deviates from that will be ignored. they described it as 4 days since israel began their retaliatory strikes. 2/6
RETALIATORY?! israel started this! they attacked people praying in their holy month, they tried to evict people from their homes, and that's only a couple of things: there are 100s! these are not retaliatory, they are offensive, and to think britain stands by as israel 3/6
1st, the Tories came for the disabled & the press joined in
Then they came for the NHS & the press joined in
Then they came for the poor & the press joined in
Then they came for the socialists & the press joined in
Now they've come for the press and no one cares

"Broadcasters including political editors @bbclaurak from the BBC, @Peston from ITV and @BethRigby from @SkyNews were among those who left in protest"

[Thread]1 This query prompted me to look @GoogleTrends - which logs popular searches on Google. I typed in 'antisemitism' after reading @davidgraeber 's thread and I found that the most common related queries and topics to antisemitism was @jeremycorbyn ! #CorbynWasRight
@GoogleTrends @davidgraeber @jeremycorbyn 2/ That means those googling the phrase 'antisemitism' were most likely to google the related term of 'corbyn' or 'jeremy corbyn'. Essentially antisemitism has attained a popular connotation of being related to Corbyn. Also, it seemed the term was searched highly in the UK
@GoogleTrends @davidgraeber @jeremycorbyn 3/ If you search for Islamophobia you'll find that Donald Trump comes out number one in related terms, but the Conservative Party and Tories also feature quite highly... The related queries don't include Johnson, unlike in the case with antisemitism and Corbyn...
