Proud to join the Birmingham bin workers picket today with @unitetheunion.bsky.social✊🏽 A Labour council, under a Labour government, is attacking pay & conditions. That’s why we’re building a genuinely socialist party that stands up for workers in Parliament & on the picket. Join us: yourparty.uk

Unlike Labour and Reform, I think Britain’s foreign policy should be decided by Britain, not the United States. My piece for @newstatesman1913.bsky.social on the need for an independent foreign policy. www.newstatesman.com/internationa...

It’s time to abolish tuition fees and cancel student debt. Education is a public good, not a commodity.

First they came for my neighbour and I was like fuck you leave my neighbour alone

This is what cognitive dissonance looks like in its most damgerous form

This is Donald Trump's fascist America. Keir Starmer doesn't oppose it. He licks the boot of the man who authorises these assassinations.

Trump 's so-called “Board of Peace” for Gaza is a colonial Board of Occupation, run by war criminals and profiteers. We will continue to march. We will continue to boycott. We will continue to speak out. Until Palestine is free, from the river to the sea.

Your Party is about to elect its first leadership team. Let's build a party for the many. Get involved: www.themany.uk.

Heba Muraisi is in critical condition on day 72 of her hunger strike. She struggling to breathe and suffering uncontrollable muscle spasms. Kamran Ahmed is on day 65. He is experiencing shrinkage to the muscle of his heart and has been diagnosed with bradycardia.

Across the country, Iranians are protesting real economic hardship, much of it deepened by US sanctions. In the UK, solidarity means opposing those sanctions & the imperial strategies behind them. Only the Iranian people have the right to decide their own future. No outside power should interfere.

My statement on the protests in Iran. I support the human rights of everyone, everywhere.

I’m backing the Grassroots Left slate for Your Party CEC: A member-led slate fighting for real democracy, empowering branches and members, ensuring transparency and accountability, and standing for socialist, anti-imperialist politics from the grassroots up. Sign up: www.grassrootsleft.org/sign-up

In October 2023, Keir Starmer said Israel had the “right” to cut off water and electricity to Gaza — then his Labour government went on to sell Israel more weapons than the Tories ever did.

This is a government that denies genocide, bans a non-violent direct action group for the first time in British history to protect arms dealers’ profits, and now moves to scrap jury trials after Elbit Systems — Israel’s largest arms manufacturer — complained about juries acquitting Palestine Action.

The Labour Party is the genocide party. We must resist Starmer’s authoritarian Labour government and defeat every attempt to crush the movement for Palestinian liberation. We will not stop until Palestine is free — from the river to the sea 🇵🇸

This is why we have a police state, aggressive ICE, wars, and troops committing atrocities; because there are so many submissive men who just want to dress up in uniforms and be told what to do. They can't handle personal responsibility, so they relinquish it for orders #FUCKICE #ACAB

I am horrified by the murder of a woman in Minneapolis by an ICE agent. This is what fascism looks like in real time, where a far-right government emboldens a violent death squad to terrorise communities with impunity.

Keir Starmer’s Labour government is just a vassal of Washington, making the world more dangerous with every decision.

The government said this was the year it would turn a corner. One week into 2026, and it has already debased itself by refusing to call out blatant violations of international law. The government isn’t turning a corner. It’s driving us headfirst into chaos, division and war.

Missed anything?

The story of US intervention is a story of suffering, misery and chaos. How many more catastrophic failures will it take before we learn the lesson? My piece for @tribunemagazine.bsky.social on the illegal invasion of Venezuela. tribunemag.co.uk/2026/01/star...

Today marks day 65 of Heba Muraisi’s hunger strike. Day 58 for Kamran Ahmed. They are now at imminent risk of death and this Labour government remains spineless and cowardly — refusing even to meet their lawyers while lives hang in the balance.

Let there be no ambiguity: if Heba or Kamran die, that blood is on the hands of this Labour government. Our demand is clear and immediate: bail for all remand prisoners. Now.

Bombing a sovereign nation and kidnapping the President is the behaviour of a cowboy state. The United States’ attack on Venezuela is illegal — and it is utterly shameful that the UK government refuses to condemn this reckless act of war.

It's way too early to tell how things are going to shake out, but historically, when the US has toppled S Amer rulers,it's led to nightmares beyond horror. The smartest & most capable US presidents made disasters of these interventions& the dumbest&least capable US president is currently in charge

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela. This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources. It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.

Solidarity with the Venezuelan people 🇻🇪

Venezuela has the world’s largest oil reserves — and that’s no coincidence. This is naked U.S. imperialism: an illegal assault on Caracas aimed at overthrowing a sovereign government and plundering its resources. Starmer’s Labour government must condemn this unequivocally.

A worthwhile New Year's Resolution. Solidarity not Charity ❤️🚩✊🏾

✊🏾 JOIN A UNION ✊🏾 Because the odds of 3 ghosts visiting your boss and persuading him to do the right thing are slim

Everyone should care that our democracy is being systematically hollowed out. That hard-won rights and civil liberties are being deliberately dismantled — not in the name of public safety, but to protect a genocidal apartheid state and the profit margins of weapons manufacturers.

Is it illegal to support the prisoners now, or are they overstepping? Will it retrospectively have been OK when a jury finds them innocent? Will that mean five figure compensation?

If there are any local contests to name snow plows this year, I recommend #AbolishIce

It's great to be helping build a party which connects parliamentary politics with broader social struggles and organised workers. Jeremy on the picket line and Zarah defending hunger strikers. This is real politics affecting real lives and I'm proud to be a part of it with you.Solidarity always ❤️🚩✊🏾

From 2am, in freezing temperatures, we were forced to protest for more than 12 hours before an ambulance was finally dispatched to HMP Bronzefield so that Qesser Zuhrah could receive the urgent medical care she needs. We demand immediate bail for all remand political prisoners.

100% true!

More than 50 MPs and Peers have joined me in urging David Lammy to immediately meet with the lawyers of those on hunger strike. The government needs to wake up, take responsibility, and show some humanity before it is too late.

FIGHT WAR NOT WARS No war but the class war!

Well done to local volunteers in Islington for this fantastic, inclusive initiative. Every child deserves the chance to cycle! www.islingtontribune.co.uk/article/bike...

I am horrified by the antisemitic attack at Bondi Beach on the first day of Hanukkah, targeting Australia’s Jewish community. My thoughts are with the victims, their families and the Jewish community.

I am standing with the Village Hotels and Starbucks workers who are challenging the company’s discriminatory low pay structure and fighting for recognition after CEO Gary Davis stated that “money is not a problem” under Blackstone. I will join them on the picket next week on Thursday 18th December✊🏽

The government is letting the hunger strikers die. This is a national scandal - and should be on the front-page of every newspaper in Britain. morningstaronline.co.uk/article/gove...
