We need an ANTI-FASCIST ECONOMICS which puts a floor under people's livelihoods and a ceiling on the extreme concentration of power and wealth. 🔗 Today I am launching my new YouTube channel: youtu.be/Wj_GdHSo7PU

We're asking the government to set up a National Commission on Electoral Reform. It should be an independent review to build consensus for changing the electoral system for the Westminster Parliament. Add your name today: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/76...

“Paris has embarked on a grand transformation, planting 155k trees, adding hundreds of kms of bike lanes, pedestrianising 300 school streets and banning cars from the banks of the Seine. Parking has been turned into green space…Fewer parents fear their child being run over when they walk to school.”
I've just signed "Tell Andy Burnham to launch a National Commission on Electoral Reform" - Will you support the campaign too? actionstorm.org/petitions/na... @OpenBritainHQ
The government is failing to tackle global heating – so we’re forcing it to take action. Will you join us? goodlawproject.org/s/29a3b6
Let's encourage our MP John Glen: Best for Britain’s research reveals EU membership could add up to 3.6% GDP growth in the long run, equivalent to more than £92bn, almost entirely reversing the 4% damage done to the UK economy by Brexit, according to the OBR. 🙋 hey-mp.uk/hey/John-Gle...
The votes are still being counted, but one thing is clear: First Past the Post is broken. 🗳️MPs elected while 2/3 of voters opposed them. Majority governments on a quarter of the vote. This isn't democracy. Sign the letter calling for electoral reform 👇 secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/191527/...

First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped. Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented. Tell Keir Starmer to change this. actionnetwork.org/petitions/th...

Awful of the BBC. How can they distribute a video that clearly shows that the official US government narrative is a lie without also stating that it's a lie? There aren't two sides to every story. Two news angles, yes: - Reality of what happened. - Official lying cover-up. But not two sides.
The BBC coverage is absolutely terrible. It leads on "sharply contested narratives" It has a dramatic skew to the US government It has posted the video but has failed to report on what it shows: it shows the US govt account is untrue

You may’ve seen coverage of a new report on the threat to national security from environmental collapse. A common response that’s got my goat is: “Look, it’s not just tree-hugging enviros saying this, it’s hard-nosed spooks!” A short thread on why this framing is bad history & bad politics🧵😡😉

This May’s elections are expected to bring chaos because our voting system is broken. I’ve written to my MP to push for fairer elections before it’s too late. It takes 2 minutes to do the same here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell... @compassoffice.bsky.social

🔴Trump’s ‘Donroe Doctrine’ Is an Existential Threat to NATO and Europe The US President’s plans to capture Greenland pose a grave threat to Europe’s future that its leaders can no longer afford to ignore, argues @nixonsimon.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2026/01/06/d...
Poly Toynbee says what I think. Why can’t those in government, or even the various opposition. If they can,, what is holding them back?
"Discard tax pledges that distort budget priorities. Abandon Brexit red lines, free us to get as close as Europe will agree. Bring in proportional representation immediately to rescue democracy for five-party politics." No easy answers, but the right priorities👏 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Brits will keep paying far too much for energy until the govt addresses the massive inefficiency and waste in the energy system. @gjuk.bsky.social on @martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com #MartinLewis

This study predicts UK energy spending to halve by 2050, as part of our ‘rush’ to net zero….:) Five years ago I flagged this incredible fact in my book Manifesto - we spend £50 billion a year to bring oil and gas into our country - just to burn it. Good to see it in this study. buff.ly/OBwYgKG
