Was a privilege to be at the launch for this. The tenacity and perseverance of these families are unmatched. Many are unsung heroes who have worked for years to hold the most powerful to account. Now they're escalating their campaign. theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/a…

The cuts to adult education are massive and receive barely any attention. Lifelong learning should be a basic right. Cutting adult ed is the last thing Labour should be doing. Support the The WEA! Sign the petition! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/6-is…

They've always had it in for lifelong learning. They misappropriated the phrase in the Blair-Brown years while gutting real lifelong and lifewide learning, for their target chasing instrumentalist Skills Agenda. Philistines from PPE world.

The fact we've had rock bottom rates of Corporation Tax for a decade while everything in Britain gets tangibly worse suggests that, perhaps, economic prosperity isn't inherently linked to giving the mega rich literally everything they want.

Nigel Farage calling for the nationalisation of British Steel while holding union literature reflects Reform's electoral base and it should worry Labour. A senior trade unionist told me a few months ago that there were shop stewards at Port Talbot backing Reform.

He's literally trying to privatise as much of it as he possibly can and takes considerable donations from private health care interests. Tweeting this is simply misleading.

Remembering Tom Hurndall, a young British photographer who had his whole life ahead of him. On 11 April 2003 Tom was shot by an Israeli sniper while rescuing Palestinian children in Gaza. He died 9 months later. His bravery, solidarity and humanity will never be forgotten.

Not an original thought Polly Toynbee given that VCs are also saying the same thing. FYI: x.com/UnisNotBorders… Liberals only care about 1 thing- protecting carceral, neoliberal systems. UK higher education is just that similar to what is happening across the pond. 🧵

It's not a Nigerian care worker, a Filipino nurse or a Polish builder making your life a misery. It's the politician who tells you to point the finger elsewhere while they have their foot on your neck.

Our thoughts, from the perspective of migrant-led campaigners working to end the #HostileEnvironment policy in higher education & beyond to Starmer's hateful, xeno-racist speech. 🧵
