The Mayor of London has told me in public just now he supports scrapping the two child benefit cap - when the Chancellor can afford to do so.
I asked him if he'd support a wealth tax on assets - and he refused to answer the question.
Labour always supporting the 1%.

The taking jewellery is not akin to painting over a mural, is so far worse.
I can think of several places that have removed jewellery from human beings before they were ‘processed’ and every single one of those governments were evil beyond belief.
Visit a holocaust museum and see the parallels

People are being shut out of politics.
Your Party has a radical plan to change that: by forging a mass, democratic party from the ground up.

Voters' voices are being shut out of British politics. Your Party has a radical plan to change that | Jeremy Corbyn
At our conference in November we will use a jury service-type model to allow members to discuss and decide policy, strategy and even the name of our party, says Your Party co-leader Jeremy Corbyn

If the police arrest me for this, it's a direct attack on the expression of opinion: ie on free speech. But the Terrorism Act is so madly oppressive and loosely framed that I have no idea which side of it I'm on. And I suspect it's the same for them.

Bear in mind that if you held up a sign saying "I support genocide", you would not be arrested under the Terrorism Act.
Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action".
This is real police state behaviour.

Palestine Action isn’t a danger to British democracy – but Yvette Cooper is | George Monbiot
The home secretary is apparently an admirer of the suffragettes. I have no doubt that if they were active today she would proscribe them, too, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

- NO backdoor "ongoing role" for private sector
- Bring rolling stock into public hands
- investment!
