But he doesn't. Playing shit pensions off against care, doing nothing to reverse the persecution of trans folk, allowing the disabled to be a target, not fully committing to renationalisation, and still supporting Israel as they commit genocide are just the first that come to mind. Far from all.

Something remarkable is happening: James Talarico is running an expansively pro-immigrant campaign in Texas, a state Trump won by 14 points, speaking in Biblical terms about our duty to "the stranger." And it's resonating. That's seismic. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2160...

In Texas, Something Seismic Is Happening—and It’s All Trump’s Fault
Thanks to the economy and ICE, Trump has lost Texas Latinos. And James Talarico is developing a humane pro-immigrant message that’s resonating—even in this ultra-Trumpy state.

All right wingers really care about is making things easier for people that have money and harder for people that don’t have money. They tend to love war as well which most of the time helps them with the first two aims. That is literally all they exist for.

Burnham is saying all of the right things, it's what he does and he does it very very well. His track record suggests he won't deliver much of it, if any. I would be unbelievably happy if I end up being wrong on this.

We are the fifth biggest economy. We have one of the lowest pensions in the developed world. We have one of the highest pension ages in the developed world. And we're being told we still can't afford it. What we can't afford is £70bn+ subsidies to water companies, bailouts for banks, and PPE fraud.

We have the chance to cut bills, end the sewage scandal and stop the rampant profiteering. But instead it's more half-measures, and kicking the issue into the long grass.

Weird how money for nuclear weapons, low tax rates for the wealthy, privatised industries, foreign aid, corporate welfare, and every other thing the Government wants to do is never unsustainable. But protecting our pensions. Unsustainable? It's complete bullshit.

There's nothing worse than an establishment shill, they're already out in force declaring the triple lock on pensions to be unsustainable because they've been told it's unsustainable. It's the worst pension in the developed world, to suggest we can't keep the protections it has is utterly false.

The Labour Party’s women’s conference on 26/9/26 was an embarrassing farce, with only 200 delegates of the 1,000 normal attendance (no major unions) in protest of the Labour Party’s shameful abandonment of trans people following the legally absurd ruling of the Supreme Court in FWS in April 2025.

It's striking to see people *still* reacting to the term neoliberalism as if it were a figment of the imagination. I guess the fish doesn't see the water in which it swims. But still to be claiming, in 2026, not to know what it is looks to me like wilful ignorance verging on denial.

The Times - which has v much joined in the rightwing clamour to reduce immigration - now reporting that Mahmood’s “success” has cost the economy £4- to £7Bn. Would they like to now honestly confirm that fewer people = less spending power for all. There’s a high price to pay for this nasty obsession.
Patrick Maguire
Chief Political Commentator Oliver Wright Policy Editor

Falling migration numbers could cost the chancellor as much as £7bn in fiscal headroom as he writes his first budget, The Times has been told.
Government insiders believe that John Healey, who already faced an uphill battle to balance the books next month, is likely to have an even bigger challenge after immigration undershot projections from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR).
The Institute for Fiscal Studies think tank estimated last month that the success of Shabana
Mahmood's
reforms, which have cut net migration to the low hundreds of thousands, could cost Healey some £4bn.
