Labour doesn’t need to pander to the right.

Its most popular policies are actually the most progressive.

Labour is doing a wealth tax.

But instead of a one-off hit, it’s rolling out a series of measures to make the richest pay their fair share.

You can hate the toadying and the fake compliments to the fascist in the White House but this is nothing but a triumph for Keir Starmer, David Lammy and ultimately for Britain and Ukraine.

And that’s all I care about.

The Labour government has been busy pursuing popular policies, and improving the lives of some of the poorest. But polls suggest many think they haven’t achieved much. Stephen MacNair goes into the issues they have been tackling. How good is the record?

Ok so Trump won again, Musk is buying up democracy, media is overdosing on Farage and Tory sour grapes…
BUT
We kicked the Tories out, the right is split, Brexit hovers over the shredder, Trump and Musk will trip up over their monstrous egos and we moved to Bluesky.

There’s always hope.
Cheers all🎄🥂

I’ve been watching the debate and, more than anything else, I cannot help but wonder how much better our Parliament would be if MPs brought their human selves to the chamber more often instead of the barking, shallow, bruisingly unthinking whipped debates with planted questions

In truth, every single major piece of legislation ought to be this somberly undertaken, this well attended, this carefully considered, and this passionately, but cordially, argued.

If our elected chamber can be what we witnessed today, why can't it all the time?

Embarrassing lightweight alert!

At PMQs, Badenoch - leader of the Opposition - tries to assert that a rightwing/Musk/foreign-bot-boosted online petition is reason to call a general election.

And in so doing, showily slides the grubby remnants of her credibility and dignity into the bin.

Average annual energy bill to rise by £21 to £1,738 from January.

One of the highest prices in the world.

No curbs on profiteering - oil, gas, energy companies making record profits, fueling poverty, business costs.

Profiteers also get public subsidies.
