Really great, inspiring conference organised by Linsey Robb and Rowan Thompson Northumbria Uni. I enjoyed talking about anti-war suffragette Melvina Walker and the strike on Jolly George. Thanks for the photo Claudia Treacher, I learnt loads from your fascinating paper on WW2.

No way I'd vote for Starmer's The Labour Party and its candidate David Lammy in the #GeneralElection2024📷 after they defended Israel whilst it committed genocide in Gaza. I voted for Nandita Lal socialism and Palestine. Now off to see a new film about Sylvia Pankhurst.

Labour won 24,665 votes in Sunderland South and Houghton in 2017. This time: 18,837. Some people argue that Labour's right-wing shift represented by Starmer replacing Corbyn was electorally necessary. It really wasn't.

Hours ago these arrangements were going to create unacceptable disruption to London’s communities. Now the police have backed off. Why? Because they worried people would turn up anyway. Big thanks to everyone who stood up to and said they were coming out. This is how we win.
