Reeves’s reckless gamble with financial stability www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2026/05... Just as we face another financial crisis, Rachel Reeves is seeking to loosen banking regulation, massively increasing the risk to deposits and the state, which will pick up the cost.

Is Andy Burnham Labour's best chance? @labourlewis.bsky.social thinks so...

"Analysis suggested that on just 27% of the vote, Reform UK would win 48% of the seats at the next election. And this will be for one reason: our electoral system. There is no way Reform UK could, on current trends, win a general election under proportional representation."

Keir Starmer's intention to restrict peaceful protest even further is punishment for crimes the great majority of protestors hate and reject. By suggesting that support for Palestinians is an attack on British Jews, he conflates British Jews with the state of Israel, which is wrong and dangerous.

1. Every year, large areas of gorse in Dartmoor and Exmoor national parks are deliberately burnt. It’s an appalling act of vandalism, killing wildlife, preventing regeneration of crucial habitats, releasing toxic smoke and carbon. This thread is about why it’s happening. Pic from this weekend. 1/7

BRENNAN: The shooter had multiple weapons. You said he traveled from CA across the country by train. How did he do that? BLANCHE: This isn't about making laws more restrictive BRENNAN: I'm asking about crossing state lines w/firearms BLANCHE: I don't think that's something we should be focused on

Sadiq Khan tells me Keir Starmer was wrong to brand the Green Party as extremists and says the Prime Minister needs to do much more to win back voters from Zack Polanski's party, as Labour faces heavy defeats in next month's local elections bylinetimes.com/2026/04/24/i...

Alongside 120 organizations, we issued travel advisory warning those visiting the U.S. for the World Cup of potential civil liberties and human rights violations.

Starmer is just the most obvious case in what is an endemic in Labour: Entitlement. How dare the voters pick a different left wing party! They must be extremists! We know what's best! It lost them Scotland twelve years ago, it'll lose them Wales in two weeks and the UK in three years.

“Greens who were long dismissed as “idealistic” & “unrealistic” now look like hard-headed pragmatists & true patriots. They’re years ahead of their rivals in demanding a transition that makes sense on every level: environmental, economic & political” - great article from @georgemonbiot.bsky.social 👇

In June 1982, Israel invaded Lebanon, butchering 25,000 people, mostly civilians, bombing 13 hospitals. Ronald Dahl wrote about it in 1983, condemning Israel’s Nazi tactics & racist savagery. 43 years later, the slaughter is being ramped up, the terrorists emboldened by US-backed impunity.

I don't know why this is so hard for some people to grasp. If we extend our use of fossil gas, rather than going all-out for grid batteries, heat pumps and induction hobs, we extend our dependence on *foreign* sources of gas, regardless of whether we also use the UK's last remaining reserves. 🧵

1) Since Starmer became leader, Labour Party membership has dropped by over 50%. And falling. 2) since Zack Polanski became leader, GPEW membership has risen by over 200%. And climbing. 3) Now only 25,000 difference in membership numbers between them. #GreenMenace #HopeIsGreen #GreensAreGrowing!

Trump is threatening to destroy Iran... ... While Keir Starmer is allowing him access to a US bomb depot in the UK countryside. We filmed it 👇 www.youtube.com/shorts/gJdM1...

UK disability benefit cuts New applicants for the health top-up to Universal Credit to receive half of the current rate whilst cost of living rises. Loss of £200+ a month. If you lose your benefit and reapply, you get the lower rate. Thousands will be pushed into poverty. Cruel.

A terrible decision, and one which will do huge damage to the Government's climate credentials. As Ed knows, this drilling won't lower bills, but instead it sends a clear message that Britain won't be a world leader on ending oil and gas exploitation

BREAKING: Iran says regime change operation in US is well underway as a string of senior officials and military chiefs resign from their roles 👀

Did BBC radio 4 #Today programme really just do a whole package about drilling in the N Sea without once even mentioning #climate change? And not having anyone challenging the one-sided claims of former BP boss? So irresponsible #bbcr4today

This is Apartheid. It's morally disgusting - and comes at the same time as Israel is committing an ongoing genocide. To see the Labour Government defend Israel repeatedly will horrify the British public - it cannot go on like this.

Massive props & thanks to Zack for continuing to speak up about the Gaza genocide & Israeli apartheid. This takes a huge amount of bravery bc as we've been seeing recently, it's coming at an increasing personal cost as the smears & attacks ramp up in the media

It would be so refreshing for the UK government to stop talking about a reset with the EU and ACTUALLY DO IT …. “PM says Iran war means UK needs 'closer co-operation' with EU - Sky News”

The Israeli government is now doing to southern Lebanon what it has done to Gaza. Horror and death on an unimaginable scale. And still our governments supply weapons, intelligence and diplomatic support. #PartyToTheCrime

Great news. Dartmoor is an ecological disaster zone masquerading as a National Park, as its ecosystems have been grazed out by sheep. Now this must change.

The additional cost of ONE fossil fuel price spike on the scale of 2022 = the ENTIRE COST of Net Zero by 2050. We get precisely nothing in return for the first cost, and a whole new, more secure and cheaper energy system from the second one. #NoBrainer www.theccc.org.uk/2026/03/11/c...

While I'm glad to see the US called to account for its criminal bombing of a school in Iran, it astonishes me to see so little challenge to Gordon Brown when he appoints himself to this role. He was properly, Nuremberg-complicit in the Iraq War, in which 700 primary schools were bombed.

UK economy failed to grow in January ahead of Iran war. Neoliberalism has failed. Need new economic strategy. Redistribute income/wealth. Too many struggling. Profiteering pushing people into poverty. Nationalise essentials. Govt to invest directly in infrastructure, new industries.

“Even before Donald Trump’s Operation Epic Fury on Iran unleashed higher oil prices, threatening the outlook for growth and inflation, the UK economy was flatlining” www.theguardian.com/business/202...

More than 2 million American women get married each year- most change their names. Not to mention the number who move is even more. This is not some “small fraction” of people.

Labour's core voters, on which its re-election entirely depends, are crystal clear about this: they absolutely hate its illiberal, intolerant, draconian, rightwards turn. Hence the total collapse in support. So how does the government respond? #SuicideMission🤦‍♂️ thesecretbarrister.com/2026/03/07/k...

This is the point about Labour introducing retrospective changes to the immigration system. They set the precedent for any Govt. to say that they can go back on promises to migrants and people of colour as far back as they want.
