An anniversary worth marking.
I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.

One of the strangest ironies of the last ten years has been watching Britain immersing itself as deeply as ever in memories of WW2 while proudly turning its back on the project that emerged from it.

There are a lot of bad takes from the election results.
Pushing to go further right is one of them.
If some ppl want far right, why would they vote Labour? It’s not who we are and we shouldn’t try to be.
We can be the hope over the fear.
Bold, optimistic ideas don’t belong to the far right /1

Labour's been knocked for six. The Tories face oblivion. And Reform are threatening politics as we know it. Did Thursday represent a political earthquake?

The absence of trans people from the British media is part of the problem. I'd like to offer mentoring to trans people trying to get into journalism, free of charge. Most of my experience is obviously in political commentary, but I might be passably useful in news and other areas.

A six does it www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/05... Labour lost to Reform in Runcorn by six votes last night. But there is a much bigger story than that, which is that unless we get electoral reform now, last night made clear that fair elections in much of the UK might be over.
