The ability to pour hundreds of millions of pounds into a loss-making TV channel, bent on wrenching British politics sharply to the right, is yet another of the ways in which extreme wealth is trying to remake UK democracy. It needs to be part of any serious conversation about political funding.

Obvious point this, but people need to stop believing what they are told by Farage, GB News, and the general declinist and alarmist media narrative and start paying attention to what is really going on regarding crime in this country. The BBC and mainstream media have a duty to get the truth out.

Labour has to decide if it wants to appease the far right and sing to Farage's tune re-Trump, immigration, the EU and more cutbacks, or follow a left of centre, progressive path in some form of alliance with the Lib Dems and Greens. A likely Tory-Reform merger further down the line methinks.

What a time to be alive. It's like living in a parallel universe.

Starmer has to be more imaginative and focus on the centre left rather than the right. We need more growth (so join the SM and CU) and for goodness sake emphasise the benefits of immigration, especially to our health and care systems rather than feeding the right wing beast.

Eventually the Government will have to seriously consider the EU Single Market. It's clear to 99% of honest, intelligent thinkers that it's in our best interest. Maybe not yet for Starmer but before the next Election? I wonder. Be brave. The tide is turning.

Why is it that every Xmas around this time you start to panic and ask yourself if you have spent enough on presents for everyone?

I find if you block 75% of posters on X it's just about tolerable and less of an echo chamber for fruitcakes. But it's quicker and easier just to switch platforms and register here
