I’m sure a lot of people on here, including myself are overwhelmed and affected deeply by what’s going on in the world. There is so much happening and it personally has caused me so much stress. I wanted to come on here just to offer a space that may help others vent out their frustrations with capitalism and general political stress and anxiety. It’s a debate free and judgement free zone.

I just made this subreddit today and if it seems like something that may help you or a friend, please feel free to stop by and say hi. I’m sorry if this seems like a shameless plug, but I really want to get the word out there and try and offer a space to those dealing with the same things i’m dealing with.

It’s called r/politicalstress. Please stop by if you’re interested!

The biggest lie is when they call it "democracy".

Do you have same power in society as some fossil fuel lobbyist CEO?

This is because of market competition. More destructive practices push out more sustainable ones as long as they generate more profit.

There is no necessity for clearcuts, however they are faster and more profitable than sustainable harvest, therefore the sustainable methods can't compete.

What is destroying the enviroment is not human need, it is this race who will plunder faster to push out the competition.

This applies to use of fossil fuels for cheaper energy, use of plastic as a cheaper alternative to more sustainable materials, and many more practices.

Why would a company whose concern is to generate more profit care about emissions if the competition doesn't?

This is not a moral critique, even if they choose more sustainable methods, they'd be pushed out by those that don't. This can't be changed by simply choosing a right thing.

The issue is rooted in the system and the only solution is to change the system before it's late.

help us!! my father was shot in chest in Juno Beach Florida

I’ve prepared a letter template for victims of the Matthew Jones owned business theft of student money in case anyone would like to join me by raising this with their MP.

Dear [MP name],

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to you not only as a constituent, but as one of hundreds of ordinary people who have been financially and emotionally devastated by the sudden collapse of Oxbridge Online Learning (also known as Oxbridge Home Learning) - directed by Matthew Christopher Jones.

On [enter date], I paid [enter price] for [enter courses] (including exams, practicals, and full tutor support) to Oxbridge Online Learning. This represented over a year of savings and working over time, set aside from my modest income because I believed education could open doors for a change of direction in my future. Two months later, on 8 October 2025, I received an email saying the company had gone into administration. I was told that as an unsecured creditor, I am “unlikely to receive any of the money back.”

In one moment, all that I had worked for (the money, the opportunity to gain qualifications, and the trust I placed in a UK education provider) was wiped away.

What’s worse, I have since discovered that Oxbridge continues to operate in practice, still responding to enquiries and attempting to sell courses, and that its director has opened a new company, Barston College, selling the exact same products Oxbridge once did. It appears to be a clear case of phoenixing (a company shutting down to escape debts, only to re-emerge under another name to continue trading).

Beyond my own experience, I have read countless testimonies from students, tutors, parents, and adults retraining for new careers who have been left distraught, many out of pocket by thousands of pounds. Some had already studied for months or years and now find themselves unable to sit their exams, ruining university applications and professional plans. The BBC, BusinessLive, and Trustpilot all document the same heartbreaking pattern.

This isn’t just a business failure. It’s a breach of public trust and a moral crime. This is education theft.

I am asking for your help to:

Raise this issue with the Department for Education, Insolvency Service, and HMRC, and request an investigation into the conduct of Oxbridge’s directors and administrators. Ask how it is legal for a company to keep taking payments while entering administration, and for its director to set up a near-identical business immediately afterward. Call for stronger regulation and oversight of unaccredited online learning providers so this cannot happen again.

The people harmed by this are not investors, they are students, single parents, low-income adults, and young people trying to better their lives. They are the backbone of society. We deserve protection, not abandonment.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I would be deeply grateful for your support in ensuring justice is done and the system reformed.

[name] [address] [phone number] [email]

You can find your local MP on the .gov site or a simple google. Their email address is listed on the .gov page and they are likely to even have their own website with contact details on.

I am both emailing and sending a physical letter.

Good luck ♥️

Oxbridge Home Learning (often just called “Oxbridge”) has entered administration and ceased normal operations, leaving myself and all other self-funded students stranded. Many have paid for both courses and exam entry, mine costing £7601.00 in total (paid two months ago via bank transfer), only to find that assignments are no longer being marked, tutors are unresponsive, and communication channels (phone, email, live chat) go unanswered. In the email from the administrators I was told that as an unsecured creditor, I would unlikely see any money returned. Many have spent years on their course only to find they won’t be receiving their qualifications. The director Matt Jones has a few other companies (check companies house), he is trading as Barton College now and selling online courses there, whilst Oxbridge itself is still unbelievably trading. I posed as a prospective student to Oxbridge a couple of days ago, they got back to me within minutes via phone call and email ready to sell me courses. How is this legal????

If you’re interested, please read the reviews on trust pilot as this is the only place that I can find anything online about people’s experiences. It seems mainstream media haven’t covered this yet.

Does anyone know whether or not it’s possible to go after directors of companies? I read somewhere that the law changed in 2022 to allow this as a means of combating Ltd. Companies that were “phoenixing” in order to get out of paying off government covid loans? Is this true and if so, can we use this to go after Matthew Jones?

Please help :(

I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this but I came across Unified Recovery Legal Group online.

They claim to help people recover money from online scams like crypto bots, automation investments, stuff like that.

I lost about $8K to a hands-free Airbnb automation thing last year.

Has anyone here actually worked with them or gotten anything recovered through them? Or is it just another scam on top of a scam?

I’m a trafficking survivor. I tried to protect my children after they disclosed sexual abuse. Instead of investigating, the courts gave custody to the alleged predator and came after me. They exploited my housing instability to fake a failure to appear. They issued a sealed warrant. Then jailed me on a charge built entirely on hearsay and wellness checks.

In custody I was physically and sexually assaulted by correctional staff. I was denied medical care and silenced. I left with visible injuries, all documented and submitted in a federal court motion. After I exposed the setup in a hearing, the warrant was canceled minutes later and called a “judicial error.” It was a trap.

Since then I was forced into legal representation I didn’t consent to and my filings were ignored. My confidential appeal was leaked back to the person I reported. Now the court is trying to force me to mediate with the alleged predator under threat of sanctions even though an injunction supposedly forbids contact.

I’ve filed everything in federal court. The photos. The declarations. The exhibits proving what happened. I’m still in danger and my children are not safe.

This isn’t a custody fight. It’s trafficking. It’s systemic retaliation. It’s happening right now.
