Labour's answer on the NHS is to keep workers on crap pay and in terrible conditions whilst pumping public money into the private sector, who are entirely reliant on exploiting those same NHS workers to provide for-profit services

EXC: Friends of Jeremy Corbyn say he has resolved to run against Labour as an independent “The debate is over. He will stand.” Announcement could come as early as this week — not denied by sources close to him this evening. thetimes.co.uk/article/842621…

Three Labour sources mentioned, not one of them with a name, because politics isn't a game of backstairs manoeuvres where they're all insiders and you're just some arsehole who's been granted a five-second peek

there is this myth that Corbyn could have cruised through to win an election if only he had been a little nicer and more considerate to the people whose careers depended on him failing.

Madness. Days after Putin says he is stationing tactical nukes in Belarus in retaliation for Britain sending depleted uranium ammo to Ukraine…the MoD tweets link to video of Ukrainian soldiers with depleted uranium ammo in the UK, being trained to use it by UK + US personnel.

The real politics in this country is on our streets and in our communities. That’s why I joined anti-racist campaigners tonight to oppose the Tories’ attack on refugees. The labour movement exists to stand up for the marginalised — I will keep fighting for a more caring world.

All this says to me is that they're gonna spin up the Islamophobia machine.

Turning wearing your dad's suit into a personality.

No commentary from journalists about why Labour have resorted to legal fudge to stop him standing as a candidate.
