No idea how many people this will reach, as I don’t have many followers on here.
Starting again to build a political idea, a new party to counter right wing disruptors, but more importantly to campaign for social progress for all. Building a community here while the official site is being built.

Folks a quick history lesson.
Many decades ago we defeated fascism, and the reason we were able to do that, was because we united together against it and won, and like we did in subsequent decades there after.
We CAN do it again.

The rich don’t spend enough – and that means they shrink the economy youtu.be/D7uZrF_hqE0?...
Most of any country’s saving is done by its wealthiest people. But because the rich are obsessed with staying rich they save in unproductive ways. The result is they drain economies of productive spending.

Borrowing costs are high because that’s exactly what the Bank of England wants www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/01... The Bank of England is totally unnecessarily selling £100 billion of bonds this year that will not fund the government, inflating interest rates and reducing growth as a result.

It has to be a joke surely … 53% increase over the next 5 years, just so disgusting. Be interested to know what bonuses and dividends get paid out over this same period!

Water bills to rise by average of 36% over next five years, says water regulator Ofwat
The biggest rise in bills will be borne by customers of a firm, some of whom are currently without water because of a "technical issue".

WORLD’S RICHEST MAN BUYING OUR DEMOCRACY! Elon Musk is set to pump £78m into Nigel Farage’s party—a sum that would allow Reform to flood our politics with targeted ads. Maybe other countries allow billionaires to buy elections, but not here!

There's 3 things the Labour government can do right now to save households hundreds of pounds on their energy bills.
The energy market isn’t working for us - we need to change it.

I’ll admit I don’t understand all the intricacies of the inheritance tax on farms but if it will only affect 500 odd of the wealthiest farmers (or those avoiding inheritance tax) why have tens of thousands turned out to protest? #farmers

Any Brits on here? We need to seriously start mobilising against Farage and Reform, irrespective that we have Labour in government; they’ve already infiltrated media this side of the pond with podcasts, talk radio, Twitter, the creation of GBN a short while back. We have less than four years prep.
