And all will be defeated more easily if the opposition parties cooperate in a #ProgressiveAlliance. #FBPA

Notice seen on the back of a Lithuanian transport company's lorry near Paris. It seems that the administrative burden of serving the #UK from #Europe is not worth it There are currently food shortages Ever heard of a government deliberately depriving its people of food? #Brexit

Dido Harding, who led the disastrous Test & Trace scheme, has now formally applied to become the Head of NHS England. We can't allow what happened to Test & Trace - with billions handed over to Serco and the like - to be the model for our NHS. We must fight this all the way.

If you are commenting that Starmer is shit because of the Chesham & Amersham result, then you really do not understand politics in the uk. It was a tremendous result. A result that ‘if’ replicated would help everyone.

Hospitals taking a big hit with this too. Now have to check all with pre settled/settled status as NHS eligibility is based on residency not contribution. Our checking is up 337% since April 1- never mentioned in media😪@Matthew_Wright

It looks like almost all 2019 Labour voters in Amersham/Chesham tactically voted Libdem, while a significant swing from Tory to Libdem also happened. The #ProgressiveAlliance is happening, whether Labour bureaucracy likes it or not newstatesman.com/politics/20…
The threat of Labour defeat in Batley and Spen shows the party is facing a perfect storm

The threat of Labour defeat in Batley and Spen shows the party is facing a perfect storm

Keir Starmer’s party must finally accept that without a progressive alliance it has no route to government.

We've had a pretty cushioned life here in the UK. Under this deceitful government all that has changed. Vast swathes of the country left behind, a division that has broken communities, festered resentment, increased poverty & left millions in despair. Time for action! Apathy RIP
