The guidance issued yesterday is a disgrace, and shows just how low Labour have sunk since the days when they believed in equality and human rights. But this is far from over. Legally, politically and practically, this can and will be fought. greens.scot/news/ehrc-gu...

An absolute scandal. Yet, talk about the crumbling NHS in England and Wales never ties it to privatisation of med’s and services. There is absolutely no benefit from private business within public services.

This point needs to be made over and again: The main purpose of wealth taxes should not be to raise revenue. That's a small and secondary benefit. The main purpose should be to *reduce the fortunes of the ultrarich*. Why? Because those fortunes present a massive threat to democracy and public life.

When did Labour become the party who wants to tax those who clean buildings more than those who own them? This can’t be right. The Green Party would equalise Capital Gains Tax and Income Tax.

On a personal level, I wish Keir Starmer and his family well. Leadership places extraordinary demands on those who serve, and on the families who support them. He has made the right decision, but what happens next must be about more than a change of Prime Minister.

Remember when JustStopOil activists closed roads and the gammony right wing media and political class called them terrorists who must be imprisoned? Now those same gammons are insisting that the farage rioters, who are burning their own communities, have legitimate concerns and must be listened to.

Politicians who fanned these flames should hang their heads in shame. Time and again we've seen this story play out. Single incidents used to fuel a far right narrative - and communities across the nation paying the price.
Huge fires encompassing a street with buildings, cars and the majority of the street on fire with plumes of black smoke.

Any attempt to stop people, anywhere on this Island, who want to peacefully demonstrate against government policy or anything the public feel strongly about, will be futile. You cannot silence the masses, to attempt to do so will simply bring more people out.
