Thought for the day:
If you don't vote Labour you let the fascist RW Reform party win.
apparently.
Vote Caerphilly & tactically for parties that fully back ditching our undemocratic FPTP electoral system so Billionaire Oligarchs aren't able to gift Farage & Co a majority on a minority of the vote.

The correct response is:
How much extra does it cost the nation yearly if we don't renationalise the water industry?

stellan skarsgård seems like a good dude
How would you describe that worldview? My father told me something when I was very small to instill confidence in me: “Nobody in the world is worth more than you, but nobody’s worth less.” It is an egalitarian view that I’ve carried around in my life. That’s why I am for free schools, free universities, free health care, and free babysitting. Because our society could afford it. In America, people think social democracy is some kind of communism. They think capitalism is freedom. It’s not. It’s only freedom to exploit people.

Ummm, the rise in the state pension age to 67 was introduced by the Coalition Government in 2014, not Labour, and paying inheritance tax when you die doesn't affect your retirement income when you're alive.

Foreign secretary Yvette Cooper writes that UK policy towards Russia in Ukraine is meant to:

“make clear that aggression will not pay; that force will be resisted; and to defend principles that matter for the whole world.”

Where is this principle in relation to Israel/Gaza?

On one side of the argument we have a lord who has personally profited from the genocide carried out by the Apartheid state of Israel which the BBC failed to inform it's viewers & on the other a political figure who says people should be able to peacefully protest. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Wo...

Arms company lobbyist Lord Walney on Palestine Action being banned

Well done to Sky for introducing him as a former chair of Labour Friends of Israel, & Porritt was spot on - PA was banned because it was so effective in its campaign against the UKs complicity in Israels genocide

It is outrageous that parliamentary authorities have rejected @declassifieduk.org’s application for a press pass.

This is a flagrant attempt to suppress investigative journalism.

I have tabled an EDM urging the authorities to reverse this decision.

I agree with every word @zackpolanski.bsky.social.
Starmer and his version of Labour is an insult to everyone (imo) who has voted for Labour for decades.
But they have learned their lesson, the majority of people I know will never vote Labour again. That is the truth, not an exaggeration.

The government backs Heathrow expansion — but it’s not all or most of Britain that wants to fly more.

Just 3% of people take 30% of all flights. A few frequent flyers get the perks, while everyone else gets the noise, air pollution and climate chaos.
