@KenPaxtonTX has failed Texans again & again:
Voter suppression
Wasteful spending
Encouraged the Jan 6 attack on our Capital
Tried to overturn a free & fair election
Abandoned Texans last month during the winter storm
It's time to clean house. It's time for spring cleaning. 1/7

I'm Joe Jaworski. A Democrat running to unseat @TXAG #KenPaxton. As your next AG, I promise to:
- Never embarrass you in the SCOTUS
- Support the ACA
- Lead a statewide effort to legalize adult-use cannabis
- Support local decision-making authority 2/7

I promise to:
- Create a Voter Access Division that will prosecute what little fraud exists & make it easier for every eligible Texan to vote. Paxton says: “No vote by mail, no after hours voting for shift workers, no drive through voting & only one drop box per county!” 3/7

If I were @UKLabour leader, I would work with the @TheGreenParty and @libdems on an official electoral pact to remove all chance of tory victory. As PM, I'd modernise democracy, strengthen its checks and balances, implement fair tax, end tax dodging and send the corrupt to jail.
I'd make the state more efficient by introducing universal basic income. I'd make public provision more efficient by moving it back in-house. I'd transform the business landscape and personal freedoms by joining the Single Market and Customs Union.
I'd make it illegal for foreign nationals to own UK TV stations and print media. I'd make media editors personally liable for correcting falsehoods, with prominence matching the original presentation. I'd make it an offence for a politician to knowingly mislead parliament.
Tanja is right. Conservatives are a minority coalition. Slave-trader statues? Threatening refugees? Ending foreign aid? Starving kids? Signals to keep it intact.
Rage changes nothing. Let's #TakeControl. A majority coalition *will*.
Let's build it.

We are the progressive majority.
Divided we *are* falling.
Time to demand better of progressive leaders. Get in a room. One candidate per constituency. Make it happen. This is serious.

A short UK Q&A
"Where is the line with these people?"
There is no line.
They can lie, defraud, steal, destroy, fail, kill. Their support holds. Nobody can hold them to account, and they know it.
The first lie they got away with was a rush. They literally don't care now.

To those not on benefits:
"It's a waste of your money"
To those on benefits:
"You receive so little because foreigners/asylum seekers/benefit cheats/lefties"
To all: "hate is good. We are better than everyone else"

Over decades we have fragmented into competing parties and factions.
That's it. No need to over-think it.
Till that is addressed, nothing will change.

If you were a remainer like me, the best thing you can do for your country now is to demand an #Alliance24 between progressive parties.
Populism is here to stay. Lies are here to stay. We can't go on like this.
We have to fight the next election with one candidate per seat.

Caroline is right. But the Green Party will never win power on its own and under #FPTP its representation is all-but-destroyed.
Think.

Ed is right. But Libdems will never win power on its own and under #FPTP its representation is hugely diminished.

0/ One-third of food produced globally (1.3 billion tonnes) is lost or wasted every year.
If food waste could be represented as a country, it would be the third largest greenhouse gas emitter, behind China and the U.S.
What can we do to limit the waste during #COVID19?

1/ Keep perishable items for longer by setting your fridge at the right temperatures:
40 degrees F (4 degrees C) for refrigerator.
0 degrees F (-18 degrees C) for freezer.

2/ Learn the difference between:
"use by" = follow date guidelines on perishable items such as dairy products, meat and fish.
"best used by" = food is still good to eat, but may not be at peak of freshness.

THREAD: Here we are again. Staring into the electoral abyss. A majority in this country want a #FinalSay. A majority in this country want broadly progressive politics. But we’re silenced, held hostage by our electoral system, by tribalism, by sheer democratic immaturity. ~AA 1/
I had to explain our political system to a group of international first-time voters tonight. It was illuminating. I was embarrassed to answer their questions. Embarrassed to explain typical turnout rates to someone whose friends died for the right to vote. ~AA 2/
Embarrassed to explain to a young woman from Bangladesh why her vote would probably not count for anything in either of the two constituencies she could register. Embarrassed to explain to them why someone can be elected with, in some cases 20-odd percent support. ~AA 3/

If just 30% of pro-Remain voters use their vote tactically it would prevent the Conservative Party from winning a majority at the upcoming election.

If 40% of pro-Remain voters use their vote tactically, 87 seats could swing away from the Conservatives and a coalition of Labour, Lib Dems, SNP, Green and Plaid Cymru would return a majority of 36 seats.
