Great podcast on boredom from @jemgilbert.bsky.social @kmilb.bsky.social and nadia idle (is she on here?)... loving that my main experience of boredom is doing housework, which listening to podcasts such as this one whilst doing it totally alleviates that boredom: share.google/BHSATHlfnLwx...

An #ACFM on New British Weird. With renewed interest in megaliths, folklore, and seasonal festivities, @jemgilbert.bsky.social and I discuss the history of British weird asking if its revival is a search for a mythological grounding for a non-imperial/royalist England novaramedia.com/2026/05/10/a...

Pleased to see our work on Popular Asset Commissions included in the @greensorganise.bsky.social pledge for the upcoming elections. We need a new approach to local government if we’re to escape the austerity trap that 40 years of neoliberal reform has placed us in.

A great event at @lighthousebks.bsky.social yesterday. I got interviewed by @bellacaledonia.bsky.social about Radical Abundance. It turned into a pretty wide ranging and enjoyable conversation. A link to a video of the discussion below. lighthousebookshop.com/events/radic...

A lot wrong in the world today, but can we all congratulate 84 year old British wrestling legend Kendo Nagasaki who has described Nigel Farage as: "a really hateful man ...got this terrible history of racial and right wing abuse - and still doing it to this day, but now he camouflages it a little."

Big Pharma smelled weakness in the UK government, teamed up with Trump to force a deal funnelling billions from the #NHS into their pockets. Now Eli Lilly is back demanding more. Treat them as the threat they are. Patients will die if you don't.

I love how James Butler has turned the LRB podcast into a version of late 2010s Novara FM. Really enjoyed this.

Great to see the book featuring in a study circle in Malmo!

Palantir is burrowing into the heart of the UK's institutions - our health, our defence, our finances. Join me in telling the govt to send this dangerous company packing: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

Can't recommend this book, by @kmilb.bsky.social @kaiheron.bsky.social & @bertrussell.bsky.social, enough. It offers a sound analysis of our time of 'bullshit abundance and artificial scarcity' & combines it with an actionable plan to replace capitalism's stranglehold with another type of control.

The world energy shock is coming — it will deepen inequality in ways we've seen before. Our new @newstatesman1913.bsky.social piece argues that without urgent government action, the Strait of Hormuz crisis will ripple through our economies and rip apart our societies. Here's why. 1/

In this brand new #ACFM @jemgilbert.bsky.social, Nadia Idle and I examine the Green Party's shift to the left under Zack Polanski and assess it's prospects by looking at both the history of Green Parties and what's specific about our present moment.

“The ‘privatisation premium’, according to an analysis by the Common Wealth thinktank, sees almost a quarter of the average household energy bill – roughly £450 – flow today into corporate profits.” Our latest briefing covered in @theguardian.com 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If you read this and think that there MUST be a more coherent, analytical, historical, political way to think about the nature of generational differences and continuities, then I highly recommend seeking out @kmilb.bsky.social's book Generation Left. www.theguardian.com/inequality/2...

Young men aren't more misogynistic than older men. The prominence of anti-women influencers like Andrew Tate is an artifact of the algorithms og oligarch controlled social media platforms rather than reflecting a change in attitudes or producing a change in attitudes.

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts. Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir. This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

This #ACFM episode on the concept of ecology pairs with our forthcoming episode on the Green Party, but it also frames the general problem the UK left finds itself in. As people are split between several different parties and projects we need to think ecologically... novaramedia.com/2026/02/22/h...
