"You should never overestimate the extent to which the BBC changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage, other far right extremists and the Tufton Street junktanks, while shutting out progressive voices." – George Monbiot

If the Chancellor is raising taxes in November then she must start with raising them on us, the super rich. No ifs, no buts, no questions: we are the only ones left who can afford to contribute more. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd...

Proud to have members like @dalevince.com speaking up for people across the UK. PMUK’s @stephenstroud.bsky.social, Phil White and Julia Davies have also added their voice to this important work: mirror.co.uk/news/politics/… Come on Rachel Reeves, tax our wealth

Wonderful to meet with Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham today to discuss wealth inequality and how we can effectively tax wealth to address it. Huge thanks to the team involved. @mayorofgm.bsky.social @stephenstroud.bsky.social

A clarion call to all arriving in Liverpool for Labour Party conference: tax us, the super rich. We’re proud to pay and here to stay.

The government wants to bring back private finance in our NHS. 🤬 This would harm patients by siphoning off hundreds of millions of pounds in profits from our NHS. 🤑 Rachel Reeves and Wes Streeting, you can still drop these disastrous and unpopular plans. Share if you agree.

I’ve written to Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper demanding urgent action to ensure the safety of the Global Sumud Flotilla. 52 boats carrying aid and peace activists to Gaza. The UK must act to assure their safety. Israel is committing a genocide. All eyes are on this flotilla.

To transform the country and take on the populist right, Labour must heed the voices of its radical realists - and build a principled, practical, popular left alternative. Join @mainstreamlabour.bsky.social and together we can bring that alternative to life. www.mainstreamlabour.org/get-involved

What's worth remembering isthat Nigel Farage of Reform UK, and the shitshow that is Brexitwat, can't get enough of President rapist fraudster Trump.

The top two issues for UK voters are 1) tackling the cost-of-living crisis and 2) fixing the NHS. In this week’s letter we set out the messages we are taking to Parliament on these two issues. sh1.sendinblue.com/3g59vr62bglp...

This government promised us 'the biggest wave of insourcing of public services in a generation' 🌊 Have you seen it?! We definitely haven't. 🧐 BUT now that the government are planning changes to the Procurement Act, we've got a chance to put the pressure on. 💪 Take action now. 👇

This story that Jim highlights is pretty astonishing. A Reform counsellor, targeting his black neighbours, calling them slurs, making threats about 'body bags' and claiming he would use his position on the council to block any council applications they made. And no apology from Reform council AFAICT

As several have pointed out, this also applies to the massive (100,000 or so) Trans Pride event. Almost entirely blanked.

Laura Davison, General Secretary of the National Union of Journalists, speaking at an online vigil for the 233 journalists and media workers killed in Gaza so far: "We didn't want to have to remember our sisters and our brothers, your colleagues, & so many killed in the course of their work."

@sturdyalex.bsky.social @iandunt.bsky.social I recommend reading this...

I suspect many of us have been aware of the subtle anti Labour bias in the BBC but it's nice to see their boas carefully deconstructed and explained in this article.

The lurching horror of our national immigration narrative is on full display today. Even two years ago, I believe almost all media would have framed the victims of the Afghan leak as allies to whom we have a duty of care. In the Mail today, they are ‘migrants’ being ‘smuggled’ in to the country.

'Genteel bias: how the BBC dismantles the Left without us noticing': Claire Jones writes in West England Bylines

Trump is moving fast to unwind both American democracy and its social contract. This week’s letter to 99% members looks at what he has done so far and what he may do. And it highlights the risk that the same things could happen to us. sh1.sendinblue.com/3g4klj62bglp...

When will Labour get onboard? @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social @99organisation.bsky.social 99-percent.org/projects/con...

'As Trump implements Project 2025 at pace, can Americans and the rest of the world count on the USA remaining a democracy in other than name?' Some very scary stuff here, thorough as ever and all the more alarming for that.

...and how do we stop it happening here. @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social writes. westcountryvoices.co.uk/what-is-happ...

In this week’s letter we look at the government’s 10-year plan for the NHS – will it make us Fit for the Future? We explore the ever-growing risk to US democracy. And we see what countries struggling to escape austerity can learn from Portugal’s success. sh1.sendinblue.com/3g4ot8i2bglp...
