“This is not the change people voted for, not the change I joined the Labour party for when I was 16, and certainly not the change which people deserve.”

The exodus has begun. 6 councillors in Hastings. Cllr Grace Lewis in Coventry. Over 600,000 have already signed up. People are walking away from Starmer’s Labour - and stepping into something honest, hopeful and theirs. We stand with the many, not the powerful few. Join us.

Congratulations to Councillor Grace Lewis on breaking with Labour. Here's hoping we can work together in building a new anti-austerity and anti-war party in Coventry and beyond, with trade unionists and trade unions at its heart, that reaches into working-class communities and

Cllr Grace Lewis in Coventry has left The Labour Party to sit as an independent. Among the many criticisms she makes is the strike-breaking assistance that Labour-led Coventry City Council is providing to Labour-led Bham City Council using its wholly-owned arms-length waste company

Coventry City Council's £500k-a-year Palantir contract is indefensible and heinous While public services are cut, and people in Palestine suffer, Palantir profits. The same Labour Party who are enacting austerity here in our communities are funding genocide. #DropPalantirNow !

Cllr Cllr Grace Lewis (she/her) asked yday why Coventry City Council are still providing strike-breakers in Birmingham. Watch the The Labour Party Cllr George Duggins's response. What a patronising way to treat elected members. This strike is not a joke. Workers' livelihoods are on the line. #BirminghamBinStrike

Independent Socialist Councillors from across the country have written to Jeremy Corbyn, Zarah Sultana MP & fellow IA MPs calling for real democracy ahead of the founding conference of #YourParty. No backroom deals. No top-down control. A movement built by and for the people.

Last week I wrote to Coventry City Council about their £500,000 contract with Palantir. Palantir is a partner in Israel’s genocide in Gaza, collaborates with ICE in the US & is embedded in our NHS. Coventry (& the NHS) must divest from genocide & protect jobs, services & data.

We are not here to beg for crumbs off the table. We are taking the fucking lot.

Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn show united front at Your Party rally tonight in Liverpool

Great discussion at The World Transformed on how the left must unite — Your Party and the Greens — to keep Farage out of Downing Street. But unity isn’t uniformity. Your Party will be truly anti-imperialist: no diplomatic ties with a genocidal, apartheid Israeli state and no greenwashing

Ngl, it's pretty weird that Zack Polanski wants to maintain diplomatic ties with Israel, an entity that can only be described at this stage as a terrorist state. It's a bit like that time in 2016 when Owen Smith stated ISIS should be invited to Number 10 for a cup of tea.

It isn’t socialist to maintain diplomatic relations with Israel. They are a genocidal apartheid state. This is the Green Party position and its not good enough.
