I'm sorry you cannot be using the phrase "hierarchy of racism" in the context of the Labour party without noting that the guy they hired to do an inquiry into racism concluded that they were operating a hierarchy of racism, and they basically told him to fuck off.

Brownfacing a box of raisins and mocking my surname. Exactly what you’d expect from a right-wing hack who is the daughter of an aristocrat and ex-Tory MP.

The Cunliffe Report is a joke. Protecting water profiteers, screwing over billpayers. Scrap Ofwat, keep water privatised and hike bills by another 30%! Laughable. bbc.co.uk/news/live/c4g8…

Looting at Thames Water Net assets 1990, £1,329m; 2024, £1,301m; 2025, £359m negative - liabilities exceed assets NO shareholder investment since privatisation? Dividends £10.4bn. Can't build water services without ending privatisation. Water Commission didn't spot looting.

Nearly two-thirds of young Americans view socialism favorably, according to a 2025 YouGov/CATO poll. That's up from 51% in 2019.

Steve Reed is right. We should focus on facts. So let's start with eight claims made to Krishnan Guru-Murthy 1. The ⁠£100bn figure. This makes no sense and is not credibly evidenced. The true and fair value in law is close to zero. Legal expert Ewan McG āž”ļø @ewanmg.bsky.social unpacks common-wealth.org/perspectives/h…

A doctor is arrested in London for protesting. While he is, he calmly describes how medical infrastructure is being systematically dismantled in Gaza, while healthcare workers (like him) lose their lives. Really incredible clip. The best of British.

Private equity is taking over some of our most important public services. Recent analysis by Sophie & Sacha Hilhorst found that nearly a quarter of foster places in England now provided by PE-backed firms. theguardian.com/society/2025/j…

A superb thread. A forensic analysis from an ex-insider of how water (and imho other essential services) have been turned into machines for extracting huge wealth from the public. £84 billion in dividends so far. Paid for by ladening the companies with £74 billion of debt.

An #ACFM episode on the topic of social reproduction. Just to show you how central this often invisible work is here's some stats. Unpaid social reproductive work (childcare, housework, etc.) isn't include in measures of GDP. If it was then GDP would be 30% larger.

In 2010, boomers comprised about a third of the electorate. By 2029, it could be as low as a fifth. Millennials and zoomers combined will be 50%. Britain will undergo tremendous cultural and political change over the next quarter-century.

The Green Party is a growing grassroots movement. I'm running to be the next leader with our collective bold, positive vision to tackle power & wealth. I want to work with anyone who wants to take on Reform & this Government. The moment is right now. huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/whats-th…

Not even 24 hours and 180,000 of you have now signed up. Billionaires already have three parties fighting for them. It’s time the rest of us had one. Join us: yourparty.uk

Lots of self-flattering Labour sneers about the New Left Party. But hundreds of thousands of people expressing interest should tell you: (a) there's something very broken in the structure of electoral politics, (b) you've failed in fixing or representing that discontent.

These numbers are absolutely astounding. Completely unprecedented. Even if they don’t all end up as party members the phenomenon of this level of sign up speaks to huge potential for the left in this country.
