(VERY) Part time musician/composer.

Left wing but not utopian, democratic (not the party, the ideal) and that in itself has left wing implications.

Labour were broken a long time ago.

Time to replace them with a party that actually represents everyone - not just the billionaires.

A party that rejects Reform - rather than copies them.

Time to make hope normal again.

Tesla have approved a $1 trillion pay package for Elon Musk. That's 20 billion times more than a nurse in the UK earns.

Don't let anyone tell you immigrants or disabled people are the problem. It's the richest 1% hoarding all the wealth.

Time to tax the super-rich properly.

The company also owes the public purse £148m for supplying unusable surgical gowns.

Company is bankrupt. HMRC ranks as unsecured creditor for taxes owed by the company.
