When an anti-poverty charity that helps run national food banks pleads with the government to choose a different path, then we all should sit up and take notice. Not tough choices, political choices Some local Labour Cllrs run food banks helped by the Trussell Trust. How do they feel seeing this?

We believe instead of trying to divide society why not try offering meaningful change, & investment in public services & local communities instead? Offer people hope & materially change their lives for the better instead of demonising the poor, ill, disabled, elderly & refugees

Fed up of political ‘tourists’ being parachuted into your areas? 📸 We offer an alternative. We pride ourselves on being local, vocal & visible all year round Political leadership should come from everyday people from the ground up, not sent ready programmed from Westminster.

Not even a month old and what a crowd for our first members meeting. Give people hope, agency & a sense of community & they will turn up The revolution starts in the back room of the local British Legion ✊

Build from the grassroots up Get back into your communities The political systems have failed us Rebuilding a genuine civil society means constructing & supporting organisations deeply rooted in communities & built around people This is what our @broxtoweindies.bsky.social Cllrs do 👇

You know that the UK economy is going to go into meltdown because this AI bullshit is just another way for the government to avoid doing what needs to be done. Tax the rich, tax assets, fund public services and local authorities properly.

Politics is mostly just sitting in a small Community Centre on a Monday night in some of the most deprived areas, listening to residents talk about the every day problems that matter to them & their family Not one person spoke of Musk or Farage but many spoke of poverty, damp & being cold.
