Ordinary people were fined up to £10,000 for flouting lockdown. How have Bullingdon boy Johnson and multi-millionaire Sunak got off with 50 quid? — PolitiTweet.org

Student loan interest rates are increasing from 4.5% to 12% for high earners & from 1.5% to 9% for low earners. A kick in the teeth for the young people already disproportionately hit by the cost-of-living social emergency. A decent education shouldn't mean a lifetime of debt. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

The truth about our criminal Prime Minister and Chancellor is finally coming out. Remember when a Tory MP said it was BAME communities not taking the pandemic seriously? The brass neck of these people. https://t.co/2ur6ZPrIPz — PolitiTweet.org

I know we said Rishi Sunak was missing in action, I didn't realise he was literally registering his address 5,000 miles away. Individuals whose family benefit from tax loopholes calling the shots on our taxes is the definition of a conflict of interests. Resign! — PolitiTweet.org

Frances has provided strong leadership to the @The_TUC throughout a difficult period and leaves our trade union movement bigger and better than she found it. Thank you @FrancesOGrady — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Government Ministers and so-called honourable members of Parliament came out in their droves to defend the indefensible, leaping from lie to lie at Johnson's whim. Britain deserves better than compulsive liars and their careerist lackies. — PolitiTweet.org

If a Minister willingly misleads the House, they're supposed to resign. https://t.co/b5tMVsxEvo — PolitiTweet.org

Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak have both been issued with fines by the Metropolitan Police over Downing Street parties. They lied through their teeth for months, they debased their offices, and they made a mockery of our democracy. They must resign. https://t.co/Wg6g4ogpzr — PolitiTweet.org

In 1980, the top 1% accounted for 6% of all income. This figure has more than doubled to 15% today. Workers create wealth - yet their share of the pie is shrinking year on year. Wealth doesn't trickle down, its funnelled up. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

The Government's pledge to introduce the minimum wage for seafarers isn't worth the paper its written on. Of 6,500 violations of the minimum wage over the last 6 years just 6 employers were prosecuted. Bosses know the Tories are a soft touch when it comes to exploiting workers. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Schools already hammered by budget cuts & covid chaos now have to shell out on energy bill price gouging. They aren't protected by the price cap, so schools in certain areas are preparing for bills to rocket up by 150%. More on bills, means less on education. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Energy companies are making record profits, whilst millions of people endure sleepless nights agonizing over their surging energy bills. It doesn't take a genius to figure this one out. Use a Windfall Tax on billionaire energy giants to pay for a reduction in energy bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Now, more than ever, our communities need @UKLabour's New Deal for Working People. 👉 End fire and rehire 👉 Ban zero-hours contracts 👉 Sectoral fair pay agreements Sign the petition, for higher pay and secure work. https://t.co/0GoPejfFCO — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Not for the first time, this Government has reneged on its word and short-changed West Yorkshire in the process. Johnson promised a "bus bonanza" but the Government's budget of £70 million isn't even half of the funding needed to transform West Yorkshire's bus network. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Labour's last three manifestos laid out plans to close the tax loophole used by Rishi Sunak's millionaire wife. The Tories will never put people before their own pockets & force the super-rich to pay their fair share. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Channel 4 doesn't cost the taxpayer a penny and is a beloved national institution, which is why 82% of people oppose its sell off. Tories want to suffocate our media landscape, placing more power in the hands of a few elites. It belongs to the public, it's not theirs to sell! — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Extraordinarily callous decision from Rishi Sunak to block support for even the poorest families. All the while, his wife - whose family are worth £3,500,000,000, avoids paying tax in the UK. Out of touch. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Not only has Shell not paid a penny in tax on its North Sea oil & gas over the last 4 years, the Treasury has gifted them £92,000,000. Shell raked in profits of £14.3bn in 2021- they'll do just fine without taxpayers cash. We need a Windfall Tax on energy giants. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Hardworking families are facing the harshest drop in living standards since records began. The hyper-rich on the other hand have benefited from the greatest surge in billionaires wealth since records began. So why is it your taxes getting hiked and not theirs? — PolitiTweet.org

Yet another announcement from the Government proving their levelling up policy is just a sham. Buses are vital for many people in Bradford, but Ministers have given West Yorkshire less than half of the £168m we need to transform the region's bus network. https://t.co/lTqD3LKuel — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

This week, a National Insurance hike joins the mountain of burdens facing families. In the same week, it's come to light that the Treasury has given Shell $121 million. Last year Shell quadrupled its profits. The Tories are squeezing people and protecting profits. — PolitiTweet.org

When speaking of bad bosses, there are few more notorious nor more egregious offenders than Amazon. Amazon Labour Union's victory has echoed across the globe. It shows not even a monolith, like space bound Amazon is untouchable when workers are conscious & organised. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

The only way out of the social emergency brought on by inflation, bill surges and Tory negligence is the fight for higher wages. Clamouring the "join a union" mantra is not enough - we must actively support workers engaged in the struggle for fair pay rises & decent Ts and Cs. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

The changes to student loans are designed to price out poorer students from going to University. After the National Insurance hike, a graduate earning over £27,295 would face a 42.25% marginal tax rate - 10% more than a non-graduate earning up to £50,000. — PolitiTweet.org

Imran Hussain MP @Imran_HussainMP

Northern Trains have announced that services from Bradford, Wakefield and Halifax will be cut to just one an hour. A far cry from "Levelling Up" Bradford's connectivity with a new rail station like we were promised. — PolitiTweet.org
