Working class people in the Wirral have been denied a political voice for too long. We are a group of grassroots activists fighting for better, stronger communities. We're inspired by the ideas of socialism and environmentalism.

We should demand from our councillors that they keep the AbleMe service. It already helps many families. With better publicity, it can increase its reach further.

Wirral Council set to cut service helping people living independently

JOBS in Merseyside are at risk as a popular service helping people to live at home could soon face the axe. This is because it isn’t making Wirral…

Very respectable result for Ray McHale from a standing start. He tweeted yesterday that they've knocked on every door in the ward. Labour's victory is a fairly hollow one, as their vote share fell by nearly 50%.

It's been a bumpy road to get here. But Your Party represents hope for millions of low paid workers, for refugees, for the homeless, for disabled people whose benefits are threatened, and for trans people whose rights are under attack. Together we can make it a vital force for equality and justice.

We urge all our supporters to sign up and get involved. As Corbyn says, the new party will belong to its members who will make the key decisions. By all working together we can do amazing things and change the political landscape in this country.

Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social · 18d

There is an alternative to austerity, poverty and war.

We are that alternative. Let's build it, together.

The left needs to create its own alternative mass media. The far right have been very successful at doing this - they have access to much more funding, which helps.

First step is to build a mass party of the left, which is happening right now.
