Happy New Year!
Want to feel less happy?
Remember this?
Keir Starmer MY PLEDGES TO YOU ANOTHER FUTURE IS POSSIBLE My promise to you is that I will maintain our radical values and work tirelessly to get Labour in to power - so that we can advance the interests of the people our Party was created to serve. Based on the moral case for socialism, here is where I stand. 1. Economic justice Increase income tax for the top 5% of earners, reverse the Tories' cuts in corporation tax and clamp down on tax avoidance, particularly of large corporations. No stepping back from our core principles. 2. Social justice Abolish Universal Credit and end the Tories' cruel sanctions regime. Set a national goal for wellbeing to make health as important as GDP; invest in services that help shift to a preventative approach. Stand up for universal services and defend our NHS. Support the abolition of tuition fees and invest in lifelong learning 3. Climate justice Put the Green New Deal at the heart of everything we do. There is no issue more important to our future than the climate emergency. A Clean Air Act to tackle pollution locally. Demand international action on climate rights. 4. Promote peace and human rights No more illegal wars. Introduce a Prevention of Military Intervention Act and put human rights at the heart of foreign policy. Review all UK arms sales and make us a force for international peace and justice. 5. Common ownership Public services should be in public hands, not making profits for shareholders. Support common ownership of rail, mail, energy and water; end outsourcing out NHS, local government and justice system. 6. Defend migrants' rights Full voting rights for EU nationals. Defend free movement as we leave the EU. An immigration system based on compassion and dignity. End indefinite detention and call for the closure of centres such as Yarl's Wood. 7. Strengthen workers' rights and trade unions Work shoulder to shoulder with trade unions to stand up for working people, tackle insecure work and low pay. Repeal the Trade U…

Support the hunger strikers.
Support political prisoners.
The hunger strike is to become the BIGGEST in UK prisons since the Irish Republicans and there is no media attention. This is an open ended rolling hunger strike which began on 2nd November. The strikers are rapidly losing weight with irreversible health risks. Two of them have been hospitalised. Who are the hunger strikers? 6 political prisoners, from carers to volunteers & students, imprisoned without conviction here in the UK, for allegedly taking action for Palestine. Why are they striking? 1.End all prison censorship, mail, and information 2.Immediate bail for all imprisoned activists 3. The right to a fair trial 4. Deproscribe 5. Shut Elbit down PRISONERS FOR PALEST NE How can you help? 1. Follow calls to action on Prisoners for Palestine 2. Email your MPs, media, and amplify demands 3. Attend rallies in support of the hunger strike 4. Write letters to the hunger strikers

Timetabling chaos looms because of yet another management balls up at Cardiff Uni.
Students are going to be rightly angry about this, and it’s hard-pressed @cardiffucu.bsky.social members who’ll have to bear the brunt of it.
How long before our once great reputation dissolves completely?

Pink flowers in bloom on (fuck the) System Street, Adamsdown, Cardiff. I don’t know what they are. Are they gladioli? Maybe. Wild roses out of focus in the foreground.
