I just signed a petition to stop Big Oil killing cleaner flights. Planes can already fly on cleaner fuel made from waste, and the EU has a law to make it happen. But the oil giants like BP and Shell are lobbying to kill it. Add your name now: action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-09...

Andy Burnham must have done something right in his speech because my Mum, a Never Labour voter, told me last night it’s about time our politicians told the truth about our biggest problems and the difficulties in solving them. AND she thinks he might just be the one to fix stuff. 😳

Our response to Andy Burnham's Labour Party Conference speech 💬 #TaxTheSuperRich
We welcome the Prime Minister's vision to bring hope back to our country and communities.
And we repeat our longstanding message: we're ready to play our part by paying our fair share, so Britain gets the investment it needs to make that vision a reality. 
This country helped to build our success. So millionaires like us must be taxed more. It's our turn to step up first and help build a better future for everyone.

If you want to look at the famous RW trope about two tier policing, look no further than “Lord Archer”, a convict who still sits as a lawmaker and was rehabilitated by the establishment.

This is why Labour with its huge majority could & should have been honest with people. They could have said, we’ll cut immigration if you want but these are the very concrete consequences & as we’ve already lost £bns through Tory brexit, we need to understand this. Open goal. Missed.

Remember Farage having a hissy fit because Sky News knocked on his door and asked if he was at home. He was outraged because his daughter answered the door and claims Sky were harassing his family. Fast forward to him laughing at a distraught Mother living in Piddlington who's worried for her sons.

In 2022 Ben Delo pleaded guilty to violating anti-money laundering law in the US. Now he's giving £35m to Reform. And Andy Burnham could have put a stop to this via the Elections Bill. His failure to act on this corruption of our politics by dirty billionaire cash is simply inexcusable.

90 years ago, Parliament responded to the rise of Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts by passing the Public Order Act, which banned political uniforms, private militias and the threat of force for political objects. The debates make very resonant reading today. Here's the Liberal Robert Bernays. (Short 🧵)
You cannot conduct a fair match when one side is playing with a ball and the other with bombs and, if democracy is to survive, it must be conducted according to definite and recognised rule. One of them is that no political party should resort to any weapon other than reason and argument. The introduction of private armies, as I see it, strikes at the root of democracy. I know it is contended that the Blackshirts are not armed and, therefore, are not an army, but I do not think that argument can be upheld. … Uniformed men in military formation suggest, and are meant to suggest, the idea of force. It is no argument to reply that at this or that demonstration no force is intended. It is an inescapable fact that a uniform in politics symbolises force, to be used either now or in the future.
