He was right. And as I said then, "Labour must change or die"

Andy Burnham is right about a culture of fear in the Labour Party

@northumbriauni.bsky.social want to freeze the pay of staff if they stay in Teachers' Pensions. This hurts people now, whether they are in @ucunorthumbria.bsky.social or not, and will #TakeOurTomorrow. Does this represent the university's 'values and behaviours'? @ucu.org.uk

It’s worth repeating that when an anti-austerity movement finally arose organically from the public, these politicians worked hand-in-glove with Britain’s national news outlets to destroy it and hound it as far out of public life as possible. So that they could do this, to everyone you know.
