"Dear Diary, There were six by-elections in England and Scotland this week and Reform lost all of them. Two of them were seats we previously held. The problem with running councils is that people can see how useless we are."

This is very powerful. In fact, I think I might try to re-post it every day. We're gonna have to start thinking about how we square up to the racists because soon, it might be too late. I wonder if Piddington's little referendum stunt would have received so much media attention if it was 'up north'.

You can have all the money in the world. All the power you've ever dreamed of. You can be surrounded at every turn by sycophants praising your every syllable. But you can't switch off that voice inside. And when you're broken and twisted and you've done terrible things it'll never stop haunting you.

Imagine Labour were in opposition and two very senior shadow cabinet members, seen as leadership rivals to the leader, had resigned within days of each other. Think how that would be reported - the tone, frequency, and prominence. Now tell me the media landscape is not skewed in this country.

In the Children's Care sector, private providers charge the state an average of £384,020 per child / year. It's an absolute goldmine for unscrupulous investors to profit from housing vulnerable children. We want England to follow the example set by Wales, & remove profit from children's services.
Composite infographic shows a quote from George Monbiot in The Guardian: "Horrific, unregulated and very profitable. The companies making cash from England's children in care." Below this, a photo of We Own it campaign Jason Hussein alongside his quote: "You can put children first or you can put profit first. The current system allows private equity firms to pretend you can do both. Wales has passed a law to end profit in children's care. It is time for England to also end profit-making in children's social care."

It's no good tiptoeing around it. If the people of Israel return a government to power that contains lunatics like Ben-Gvir, then they're telling the rest of the world how they feel about international law and ethnic cleansing. NO nation or state should get a free pass.
