About Me

@HT4ecosocialism
Follow @ht4ecosocilaism on Twitter, United Kingdom
I believe in social justice, the importance of living in harmony with the environment and the economics of need - not greed. We can have thriving businesses without damaging the environment and without exploitation of working people. I believe that public services are best delivered by the public sector without the profit motive. Views expressed here are my own.
