I am opposed to flogging off alotments. They are precious community assets - often in working class communities - which we have been bequeathed by previous generations and which we ought to hold in trust for future generations.

I hear commentators saying the country is getting better. Maybe for them in their big city houses. But in the real world, nearly half of Brits are forced to give up basic hygiene essentials like shampoo, toothpaste & deodorant to cover food & housing costs. We are two Britains.

Hundreds of Jewish people demand the UK "Proscribe genocide, not protest" As someone of Jewish heritage I wholly associate myself with recent letter to the PM and Home Sec opposing the genocide in Gaza and demanding the end of the crackdown on freedom of expression here.

The median CEO pay jumped from £4.29m to £4.58m in 2024/2025. CEO's are now paid 122 times the median UK full time worker. The CEO's are getting richer because the working class is getting poorer. This trend must be reversed.

Price hikes are increasing poverty but they are not inevitable. A government that was serious about standing up for the working class would consider price controls on essential goods and services.

Congratulations to everyone receiving their GCSE results in Normanton and Hemsworth today. Exam results do not define you, but I hope they give you encouragement to keep on working hard and doing your best.
