Looking at cyclically adjusted price/earnings suggests he could be right.

@99organisation.bsky.social sets out why Labour must reinvent itself for the sake of the 99% and for its own survival. What should the Prime Minister do? 99-percent.org/what-should-... @davidviking.bsky.social @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social @andymcg.bsky.social @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social

Thanks, Lynne. Here is our take on rewiring. 99-percent.org/rewiring-the...

Deregulation mania UK Govt to weaken ring-fencing of retail from speculative banking, introduced after the 2007-08 crash. Nothing learnt. Claims this will release capital for economic growth - more speculation. Danger of shadow banking, AI bubble looms Who bears the cost of bailouts?

The way our government talks to business leaders is like the way Trump talks to Putin. 99-percent.org/how-to-talk-...

UK politics has never been less predictable. But in this week’s letter, we have some concrete advice for whoever will be the Prime Minister in 2 months’ time. (and for the new Health Secretary). sh1.sendinblue.com/3g9lssi2bglp...

Capacity; Poverty; Prevention. @99organisation.bsky.social ongoing work since this publication too.

Whoever is PM, the government can change direction now.

While predicting who will be Prime Minister in 2 months' time is impossible, we can see with some clarity what they should do. What should the Prime Minister do? 99-percent.org/what-should-...

Yes! & see new report from @99organisation.bsky.social ‘Preventing the UK going the same way as the US’ on how we stop ‘Project2029’ here 99-percent.org/defending-uk... @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social @openbritain.bsky.social @unlockdemocracy.bsky.social @peterstefanovic.bsky.social

So millionaires are happy to pay more tax, the public is happy for them to pay more tax-what is the government waiting for? Just get on with it and tax extreme wealth. @99organisation.bsky.social @patmillsuk.bsky.social @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social @davidviking.bsky.social @compassoffice.bsky.social

Our, unwritten,constitution needs defending! Following USA is a disaster. @99organisation.bsky.social produce interesting well researched publications. Sort of "People's Think Tank" not bankrolled by vested interests, care for 99%,ordinary people: country should be run in their best interests.

Is the economy like Schrodinger’s cat? @99organisation.bsky.social asks how can these 2 statements be true? -we have too much money in the economy & inflation AND -we have too little money for national renewal? @davidviking.bsky.social Schrödinger’s Economy 99-percent.org/schrodingers...

And it highlights the urgency of acting quickly on Defensive Constitutional Reform. 99-percent.org/defending-uk...

I know there’s a lot going on with the Labour Party, but it is all in the bounds of democratic politics. This however, paid collusion between the leaders of two political parties in the run up to election, if true, is a scandal of staggering propositions

Thanks to Martin Wolf for this illuminating piece on @99organisation.bsky.social’s latest report ‘Democracy on the brink: Preventing the UK from going the way of the US’. Government must act now to save UK democracy from dark money, disinformation and bad actors. @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social

Welcome! 99-percent.org/contact/

Agreed. And if Labour think just changing leader, whoever it is, will be enough, they haven't understood. Schrödinger’s Economy - 99% share.google/uZjdDCNiyKDE...

Except the Bank of England, perhaps. How Not to Handle Inflation - 99% share.google/o5eUwOmuqZNe...

... and @financialtimes.com has an excellent article about one of them. www.ft.com/content/1a5a...

Most forget that the 99% acting together can achieve their goals. The issue is that SM has fragmented us into smaller and smaller, often one-subject groups and we need to recognise that with cooperation, we can all achieve what we want if we are together.

We need a dramatic change of policy, not just a change of leader. The whole economic approach needs to reflect that of Attlee, not Gordon Brown. For serious change see 99-percent.org @99organisation.bsky.social

Schrödinger’s Economy 99-percent.org/schrodingers... Why Labour is losing and what it needs to do to prevent a Farage dictatorship. We need a dramatic change of approach, not to Gordon Brown's ideas but those of Clement Attlee, who led a much more difficult recovery. @99organisation.bsky.social

Defending UK Democracy 99-percent.org/defending-uk... This is important. @99organisation.bsky.social

Most commentary about last week’s election results focuses on Labour’s leadership. We are concerned that without major change on the key issues, a change of leader would achieve nothing... sh1.sendinblue.com/3g9hl362bglp...

The best collection of arguments against, from Martin Wolf in today’s @financialtimes.com: “First-past-the-post has become suicidal. The time to reform the old system is now”. www.ft.com/content/1a5a...

The Labour government will not achieve decency over division by trying to be Reform Lite

Thread (1/3) Even more important than changing leader ... www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c1...

The elections show Labour losing votes Primarily to the Green Party, and the Tories losing to Reform. But there is a real risk that the government will learn the wrong lessons and double-down on its current policies. It is time to recognise reality. 99-percent.org/schrodingers...

How resilient is the UK’s democracy? 💭 @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social, founder of @99organisation.bsky.social, examines the case for defensive constitutional reform and practical steps to strengthen democratic safeguards 🛡️ Read the blog 👇 www.radixbigtent.org.uk/news-comment... #ResilientDemocracy

What was unthinkable a decade ago is now obvious. Which means it should be obvious that we must act faster. sh1.sendinblue.com/3g9dddu2bglp...

This week, we and our friends were in Parliament, helping defend UK democracy. sh1.sendinblue.com/3g995oi2bglp...

The UK’s constitution relies heavily on norms & good faith, but we can no longer assume those will always hold. Strengthening our democratic safeguards now is the best way to ensure they are there and effective when we need them most. New report with @99organisation.bsky.social 👇 buff.ly/IPv8CIc

Delighted to be on this panel yesterday at Westminster, discussing the important new report by @99organisation.bsky.social & @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social on steps UK can take to protect its liberal democracy. Read more here 99-percent.org/defending-uk...

Attending the launch of the important report DEMOCRACY ON THE BRINK at the House of Commons tonight which looks at immediate action needed to safeguard UK democracy

UK democracy may be more fragile than we think. Our new report with @99organisation.bsky.social, 'Democracy on the Brink', warns the UK is inadequately prepared to defend its constitution from an extreme government. Now is the time to shore up our democratic defences. Read more 👇 buff.ly/IPv8CIc

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet. This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.

"Though our choices can help reduce the risks of global warming, poor health, and wildlife extinction, Vince shifts the responsibility to business and government to facilitate those choices, and for schools, colleges, and wider society to make us more aware of them."

sh1.sendinblue.com/3g94xz62bglp... This week, we focus on what we can do to prevent the UK from going the way of the US.
