"a pro-PR campaign is building within the Parliamentary Labour Party.

The Labour mayor of London has made a big intervention on Brexit – and his timing looks very canny indeed ✏️ Matt Withers

If (as Andrew Neil says) GB News has become Reform TV then maybe there’s a case for the @ElectoralCommUK to start taking an interest app.prospectmagazine.co.uk/story/72784/...

“If the foundations of our democratic system are left to rot, we will all suffer. Labour, as the party of democratic reform, has a responsibility to lead this conversation.” Scott Arthur MP calls for Proportional Representation in @labourlist.bsky.social labourlist.org/2026/03/abou...

Here’s my review of a powerful new touring show for teens inspired by ‘Noughts & Crosses’ @malorieblackman.bsky.social @pilottheatre.bsky.social

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

American imperialism won’t bring ‘democracy’ - in fact it’s historically been the opposite. Real democracy happens when the people revolt from below and take control of their resources. Me on @lbc.co.uk for @ukstoptrump.bsky.social this morning.

Very much looking forward to this on Thursday eve! Come along 👉👉 www.tickettailor.com/events/bylin...

“In Monday’s debate, Labour MPs were among many calling for a national commission on electoral reform… The PM is pulled from pillar to post and his in-tray is no doubt full; still, this should be near the top of it.” ✍️ @pollytoynbee.bsky.social @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

✊Solidarity with Ukrainian workers

As a lifelong advocate for people with disabilities & a former Culture Committee link MEP with UNCRDP I am outraged by this decision @paralympicsgb.bsky.social Use your voice👇

Honestly lads the motorbike and leather jacket combo much more appealing and sensible than this latest rant from reforms wannabe MP….

⚠️ Ministers must engage with UK voting system risks, say election experts 📈 Distortions of First Past the Post now “likely to be amplified to an unprecedented extent” 🧑‍🏫 50 leading academics warn the electoral system is “creating new risks for Britain”

The Government must stop listening to dodgy advice! Hear the trade unions, the care workers, the migrant support organisations - LISTEN TO YOUR BASE. The immigration plans must be scrapped. @zoejardiniere.bsky.social @unison.org.uk www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

🏚️ "We are reaching a tipping point... Outdated institutions are dying hard and fast, and Westminster’s voting system is one of them." - Jenny Riddell-Carpenter MP @jenny4suffcoast.bsky.social warns First Past The Post is headed for chaos #Labour4PR🌹 www.progressonline.org.uk/electoral-re...

Andy Burnham speaks for the contribution of migration to Manchester - saying this is in contrast to rich owners who siphon wealth out of Manchester United FC.

Please sign and share - we desperately need a fair voting system #ElectoralReform

🚨 The Government publishes its Bill to reform elections tomorrow 📜 This includes votes at 16, tighter donation rules & simpler voter registration 🤦 But the 'Representation of the People Bill' doesn’t do what it says on the tin - most people still won’t be represented 1/3

Mate, it was 1066. Move on.

This week, Unite member John Doolan gives us pause for thought, 'Just as union-negotiated agreements are harder to ignore than individual complaints, legislation built on broad democratic backing is harder to unravel.” #TimeForPR #heartunionsweek politicsforthemany.co.uk/heartunions-...

⌛48 hours to go until our House of Commons drop-in session for MPs, on 4 ways the new Railways Bill can be fixed so we can all "step really confidently towards a new future for the railways". There's still time for you to write to your MP and urge them to attend.

Our new polling shows that 7 in 10 Brits want the government to use all savings from ending rail privatisation to cut fares or open new rail services. If the government is serious about wanting to "step really confidently towards a new future for the railways", they should: 1/2

And speaking of scoops… McSweeney’s brand of political genius looks more like the Cummings variety every day.

Russia’s full-scale invasion began 4 years ago. It began in winter, and so this winter is the 5th. And, for civilians, the worst. Russia launches missiles and drones at energy infrastructure to force Ukrainians to endure the freezing cold. Here's how you can help snyder.substack.com/p/the-long-u...

📅 24 February marks 4 years since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Four years of resistance. Four years of solidarity. But the fight for justice isn’t over. 🧵⬇️

It's time for true accountability. Those who participated in the appointment of Mandelson - from those who championed him, to those who turned a blind eye, to those who silenced doubts in the name of political convenience - must be held to account.

The Pharma trade deal which Starmer (& Mandelson!) agreed with Trump will end up costing £9bn a year. Today, the government admits the NHS will be footing the bill. Scandalous. My colleague Tim Bierley in the Guardian 👇 www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

The World Cup should not be hosted by a fascist who is shooting his own people, closing down democracy and banning people from dozens of countries from the US. We need to build opposition to this. Join the new Football Against Fascism campaign 👇 footballagainstfascism.org

This flowed from his extreme pro-capitalism (“peace” so the rich can profit) and admiration for Trump. We stand with those in Labour and the unions fighting for Ukraine’s rights, workers’ rights, and a real working-class voice. These struggles are inseparable.

Second: Ukraine. Mandelson was so vocal in backing Trump’s efforts to undermine Ukraine for the benefit of Russian imperialism that even Labour’s timid leadership publicly rebuked him.

Of course there are many reasons to rejoice at Peter Mandelson’s downfall. Beyond the Epstein links, two stand out. First: despite sitting in Labour, Mandelson consistently represented the interests of the rich over those of workers.

Thursday 29 Jan: "Eyewitness reports: Resisting Putin's drive to freeze Ukraine to death" Online meeting about energy crisis, organised by @ensu-resu.bsky.social (5pm UK time) • Cristina Mas, from the Catalan newspaper "Ara" • speakers from Ukraine Register: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Palantir software is now the basis of the Government's fraud reporting service. So it now handles sensitive financial data for millions of UK citizens. Plus NHS data. Plus military analytics. Plus policing. And, of course, it's quite explicitly far right in its politics. What could ever go wrong?

Today we celebrate Ukraine's Unity Day - a powerful reminder that people power can overcome empire 🇺🇦 From 1919's liberation struggle to today's resistance, Ukrainians have chosen self-determination over domination. Solidarity with Ukraine. Solidarity with all nations resisting imperialism ✊

Renee Good was shot 3 times by ICE The first two shots were non lethal. One to her left forearm & another to right breast The final shot entered the left side of her head & exited the right side He didn’t have to keep shooting. He was out of the vehicle’s path before the kill shot That’s murder

Zelensky told us the harsh truth. Europe is acting like a geopolitical midget when it should be a titan. We have the resources to defeat Russia. We just choose not to use them. It is time to grow up, mobilize our strength, and finish this war. No more excuses

Someone sent this to me earlier. It's a genuine Farage quote from 2015 and boy does that not say it all about the defender of British culture.
