Stratford is one of Europe’s great regeneration success stories. It’s ready for its next chapter - European rail links. I’m proud to say I’m working with the government to deliver new cross-Channel trains from East London. The benefits would be felt far beyond our city.

History is written by the victors. Thatcher broke the power of trade unions by mass unemployment, industrial restructuring, frittered away N Sea Oil, laid the foundations for the current housing crisis, decimated local bus services, hollowed out local government and introduced the poll tax.
Simon Clarke 

Andy Burnham seems to remember a different 1970s to the rest of us. Britain in 1979 was utterly broken - ravaged by unaccountable trade union power, economically stagnant, the sick man of Europe.
The 1980s saw a remarkable national recovery based on free enterprise, the rule of law and championing Western values. And it is this that our Prime Minister rails against...

Not seen this covered in mainstream news. "Israel has committed genocide in the Gaza Strip, UN Commission finds" UK's leaders are outright complicit in genocide if they don't act now. It is __officially__ genocide according to the UN.

Israel officially charged with genocide by the UN Human Rights Council. I just wrote to my MP asking if they thought the UK government could carry on trading with Israel in light of an official genocide declaration by the UN. Be interesting to see how they try and whitewash this.
