This is just part of Labour's £39bn vision to build the most social homes and affordable homes in more than generation. ✅ £7bn to deliver thousands of social homes across England ✅ Councils building at scale again ✅ £150m to transform brownfield sites www.instagram.com/reel/DQ3-MTs...

We have another sign the Labour government is serious about the value of good quality FE. Not only is there £800m investment, but they are creating Regional Improvement Teams to help underperforming colleges to turn things around, including breaking down barriers to opportinity for 70k students.

The UK PM spoke with President of the UEA this morning. They spoke of the value of a closer relationship between the 2 countries on issues like defence, security, economy, trade & culture. They also discussed the situations in Sudan & in Gaza - including about decommissioning Hamas weaponry.

What is Pride in Place? The government’s Pride in Place Programme will see up to £5 billion given to nearly 250 areas across the UK. Each area will receive up to £20 million of funding & support over the next 10 years to make long-term improvements that residents want. You can find out more here!

Independent investigation to be launched to tackle rising youth inactivity It will look at how to tackle the persistently high numbers of young people out of work, education and training, which ministers have warned is a "crisis of opportunity". www.gov.uk/government/n...

The government is launching its new Veterans Strategy to transform government support for veterans and recognise their invaluable contribution across the country. It comes as work on the new network of VALOUR centres progresses. They will better connect veterans with local and national services.

I don't think we should settle for this. It's NOT ENOUGH. We need the Chair of the BBC Board and other Board members to go as well. They were happy with the Director General for so long when we could all see he was unsuitable. So why should they stay in position?

Two senior members of the BBC have resigned! BBC Director General Tim Davie and BBC News CEO Deborah Turness have stood down over over Trump documentary edit. Both were also members of the BBC Board. I don't care what the reason is - a lot of people have been waiting for this for a long time!

Health boost for Britain's forces as New NHS Programme Launches A new training programme to help NHS staff across England give the Armed Forces community the personalised care they deserve. Why do people believe it's Tories who helpng our armed forces, but it's always Labour who delivers for them?

I think this speech needs sharing again. Since the PM said this, there have been Tories who have come out & said the same as Reform: that they want to see people with a legal right to be in the UK get deported. Call it out and stand up for these people - our friends, neighbours and key workers.

Alternative write-up by another user. Between us I think we cover most of it. I'm far from expert however! skywriter.blue/pages/johnha... ☝🏻

This is clearly very disappointing and there are urgent answers needed from the owners of Drax. The big point to remember though, is that the Labour government are downgrading the Drax biofuel plant from a primary energy provider to a backup source for when renewal sources are insufficient. 1/2

Which is a positive development which is entirely missing from this news story. The move by the government will see subsidies to Drax approximately half in the coming years as it's status changes. 2/3

Overall this is a good move. As we get more clean energy in the form of wind and solar, we can close down entirely electricity generated from oil/gas and instead use biofuel as the backup source - provided it's based on fuel from sustainable forests. 3/3

Employment Rights! What is good for the employee is also good for the employer, and in turn,the country's productivity. Here minister @katedeardenmp.bsky.social visiting one employer who really gets it!

Pity there aren't more like him.

It's why we need the employment rights bill! And it could be law by now if the Tories and Lib Dems did not keep trying to water it down in the Lords!

Funding boost to protect war memorials across the country for future generations To mark Remembrance Sunday, the government has announced additional funding for the National Heritage Memorial Fund to support communities in repairing and conserving local war memorials. www.gov.uk/government/n...

#SocialistSunday well I'm a bit inspired by British 🇬🇧 Irish 🇮🇪 & other worldwide 🗺️ Liberal Socialism not Revolutionary Bolshevism. It can be said we had more influence on Marx than the reverse! A long history of Reforms within & to #Capitalism. The basics for all & a chance for the poorest to rise!👍🏻😊

Some trace the launch of British Socialism to Robert Owen who himself was a child worker and tried to slowly reform child labour out of existence. 👇🏻 www.historic-uk.com/HistoryUK/Hi... ☝🏻

Others say it started further back in #British #History even as far back as the 1640s, long before #Marxism 👇🏻 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History... ☝🏻

Else the more modern schools of thought are #Liberal #Socialism as a whole and the subdivisions of modern post-USSR Social Democracy with various degrees of Nationalisation in a mixed economy. 👇🏻 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal...

Split economies are often the best in our experience🤷🏻‍♂️ "Social democracy = #political, #social & #economics #philosophy within socialism that supports political & economic democracy & a gradualist, reformist democratic method of achieving socialism" 👇🏻 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_... ☝🏻

#MODERN Social Democracy as #PoLiTical compass #memes

Third Way is Social #Democracy which is right of Centre-Left in positioning, less state intervention in the market, less Keynesian mixed economics. 👇🏻 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Way ☝🏻

My dream is to slowly add #Georgism to Liberal Social Market Democracy whilst implementing reforms as machines increasingly permanently put people out of work through no fault of their own or ability to do anything about arriving @ Fully Automated Totally Sustainable Luxury International Federalism!

Simple 6 minute video about #Georgism largely focused on audio for the visually hindered. youtu.be/Li_MGFRNqOE?...

A brief potted History of the origins of Socialism in Britain and Ireland. Never WORKED a day in his life, greasy Socialism co-opting GRIFTING casual bigot Karl Marx was almost entirely IRRELEVANT in the development & implementation of real, functional Socialism that makes immediate improvement.

Never read it and most likely never will, because most of his fans I've ever met are clueless Tankies and it's low on my list of priorities. The dream of Liberty from Toil is universal. To this day I'm confused as to why anyone thinks he invented Socialism. We had Robert Owen before Karl Marx. 🦄🧲🥳🇬🇧🇮🇪

Suggestion for how to cope with the combination of Information Overload & Flooding The Zone. Don't check socials the moment you wake nor check conventional news. Do anything else @ all. Aim for half an hour as minimum target. Also start your day with GOOD news if you want news. Most people are good!

I avoid all the main feeds including those I follow at the moment. I don't actually check the news at all away from BlueSky. I used to when I really was one of the Ultimate Twatter Keyboard Warriors trying to fight treasonous Tories. I can't anymore. Instead, I have post notifications on for experts

#Climate #ClimateAction #EnergySky accounts and GOOD news accounts to follow. @bobbyllew.bsky.social @twobitdavinci.bsky.social @mattferrell.bsky.social @katharinehayhoe.com @jrfhanger.bsky.social #GoodNews @goodnewsnetwork.org @0lsi.bsky.social Positive.news thebetter.news Enjoy!👍🏻

I previously had political ambitions but I've wavered a lot. I decided no recently, as I've not had enough energy, don't actually know much about typical daily politics unlike what many might think! More than the general public possibly, but far from expert. At the moment though I've a bit of energy

So I look at the state of especially UK politics. Con artist Farage. Other parties being full of cheap clumsy sophistry it's embarrassing anyone falls for. Labour crushed under a compromised BBC, while trying to argue to stay in ECHR, trying to fight ToryFormed in a Backfiring way splitting the Left

I am literally better than: All Reformed and Tories. A green Party that made Hypnotits their Cult Leader, better than dishonest SNP, better than the worst of Labour MPs being constant MEMES. I'd never join ToryFormed. LibDems need to stop being FibDems. Labour? If I can roast em from inside, maybe

PoLITicaL compass memes CLUSTERBOMB!

All are insane but he who can analyse his delusions is called a Philosopher. Ambrose Bierce Hope for the best prepare for the worst. Maya Angelou not Aurelius as I thought. Who is my Master? He who decides what I do or don't like. Epictetus. Making the world a better place is a marathon not a sprint
