Reposted by David MarshallAlice Roberts @profaliceroberts.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I strongly believe schools should bring children together rather than try to impose one religious identity on them. If you agree - please add your name and call on the Education Secretary to introduce inclusive assemblies for all, and to keep dangerous Christian Nationalism OUT of our schools. 47848287

David Marshall @justonefollower.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Labour’s lesson from 2010’s Bigotgate was that bigots are unconvertible and their opinions must be enacted to the letter for a policy to be acceptable – and that it’s everyone else who needs to adapt. This was the wrong lesson. 000

David Marshall @justonefollower.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The UK has forgotten why the state pension exists: to prevent old-age poverty. It will be vastly less important when auto-enrolled workers retire. We shouldn't overcompensate through a sense of moral duty – we already have over 40% of pensioners dying with more money than when they retired. 000
David Marshall @justonefollower.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I agree with Zack Polanski on many things, but this isn't a long-term solution. The double-ratchet effect of the triple lock means that the state pension consumes a larger and larger share of GDP. Not of tax income, but the actual entire economy. It is, and always has been, an unsustainable model. 320
Reposted by David MarshallAlex Andreou @sturdyalex.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Funny. When Cameron introduced the triple lock I remember everyone on the left understanding very clearly why it was a cynical bribe to Tory voters and would not amount to a hill of beans if public services like social care were cut to the bone.
