I’m sure Blair & co, (Labour’s Keir Starmer* now) as he did the EU Working Hours Directive, on working hours will undermine any attempt to reduce the working week.
If it just means a 12 hour working day then what’s the point? With a 12 hour day, most workers would need 3 days off simply to recover!
Regardless of the environmental issue! #CapitalismKills
Abolish the wages system!*Who needs enemies with friends like Labour.
Tory MP who said Marcus Rashford should stick to the day job… has second job
Just seen this…The Times has a paywall..
The veteran BBC journalist John Simpson broke down on air yesterday as he described millions of Afghans facing starvation.
Here-
Afghans facing ‘hell on earth’ as winter looms https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-59202880The media have virtually ignored starving Afghans ..whereas, eating 24-carat gold steaks is (great) news!
The Afghan people need our support now more than ever. Currently, 1 in 3 people are hungry and 2 million children are malnourished.
With drought, pandemic, and conflict, the food security situation will continue to worsen; and hunger will rise.https://www.wfp.org/support-us/stories/families-afghanistan-need-help

Their cosy ‘closed shop’ arrangement by the likes of Manchester United* Financial Fair Play (FFP) (*using their position on UEFA) to stop wealthy owners buying a Premier League club, then financial doping them, another Chelsea. Lay in tatters. *Irony is lost on idiots.
Manchester United couldn’t careless about the then “level playing field”, that’s exactly what their owner did, opening the floodgate! Manchester United didn’t care about the so-called ‘level playing field’ being smashed, because it benefited them, now they’re crying because the very thing they did (Financial doping)has come back to bite them.
Schadenfreude then.
We saw this recently with Manchester United fans (seemingly with the aid of staff) run riot on the pitch at Old Trafford, calling for the heads of the owners, for not investing in the team…the reason for the teams silverware drought.

Pleased that this month’s Socialist Standard covers The Tigray Tragedy

The Tigray Tragedy
‘Ethiopia has 110 million people. If the tensions in Ethiopia would result in a widespread civil conflict that goes beyond Tigray, Syria will look like child’s play by comparison’ – Jeffrey Feltman, US special envoy for the Horn of Africa.
