alecdsimpson.bsky.social @alecdsimpson.bsky.social · 09/10/2026How have we got to the point where this passes for political campaigning? Whatever your view of Labour, branding a democratic party “Vote for Genocide” is not serious political debate. Challenge policies, challenge politicians, make your case but politics is poorer when activism replaces argument. 000
alecdsimpson.bsky.social @alecdsimpson.bsky.social · 06/10/2026You can support Palestinians, criticise Israel and demand peace. But marching on 7 October the anniversary of Hamas’s murdering 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages is needlessly provocative. If your aim is to reduce hatred and bring people together, there are 364 better days to make your point. 100

alecdsimpson.bsky.social @alecdsimpson.bsky.social · 16/09/2026This is exactly the problem. A conflict with generations of history, terrorism, occupation, failed peace talks and innocent victims on both sides gets reduced to ‘pick a side’. Ed Sheeran is a musician, not a Middle East diplomat. He’s allowed to play music without issuing a foreign policy position 020
alecdsimpson.bsky.social @alecdsimpson.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I’m no Reform fan, but Labour can’t attack big donors while relying on millions from the back pockets of the unions. Either back a real cap across the board, or admit your just trying to stop reform 000

alecdsimpson.bsky.social @alecdsimpson.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Scotland raised its top income tax rate to 48% to make the rich pay more. New HMRC data suggests the result may have been the opposite: Scotland collected about £22m less. Wealth tax doesn’t work stop with lazy policies ! 000

alecdsimpson.bsky.social @alecdsimpson.bsky.social · 14/03/2026VAT is 20% on fuel that alone means the Treasury collects about 3.4p extra tax per litre.The UK uses roughly 840 million litres of fuel a week. That’s £28 million extra tax in just one week from the price rise. If VAT on fuel was cut to 15%, pump prices would fall around 8p per litre overnight. 000
alecdsimpson.bsky.social @alecdsimpson.bsky.social · 07/03/2026It’s hard not to feel for Keir Starmer when senior cabinet ministers like David Lammy appear unaware of basic facts about Cyprus. That level of knowledge should be the absolute minimum in his role 051
