During his Makerfield campaign Andy Burnham said 100% of Government spending would go on Social Housing. 2 weeks ago he had reduced that to 60%. Today he said it will be 40%. So you are mostly funding Private Housing being built for Private profit.

This is incredibly alarming. We cannot go on like this. We need more advocacy for climate action, not just from the environmental movement, but from the political centre.
Screenshot of a Guardian article titled “Huge El Niño projected to cause more than 450,000 deaths by February.” The article, by environment editor Damian Carrington and dated 23 September 2026, says climate scientists estimate that additional heat from a projected strong El Niño could cause more than 450,000 deaths by February, on top of existing climate-crisis-related deaths. It mentions impacts across Indonesia, India, Nigeria and the US, as well as additional deaths from droughts, wildfires and flooding.

The BBC have shamefully surpassed themselves with this story. The fact that one of the "protesters" committed attempted murder at sea isn't mentioned. They merely comment that "Danny Thommo" filmed the boat arrival. BBC News is a fascist endeavour and needs to go! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Section 28 2.0: A complex web of anti-trans guidance that will make it vastly harder to overturn
Anti-trans rhetoric has been spread across a growing myriad of guidance and documents, with Trans+ children headed back to school facing segregation and teachers banned from “encouraging” them to question their gender.

Unlike Section 28, these rules are spread across a myriad of documents, which will make it harder for LGBTQIA+ groups to fight to overturn their harmful impacts Read our full analysis 👇
Section 28 2.0 begins
Children in England are back at school, in a new era of strict rules on what teachers can say about LGBTQIA+ identities.
Schools have begun implementing guidance and curricula which require them to segregate Trans+ pupils, while teachers are banned from “encouraging” pupils from ‘questioning their gender’. Many view the new rules as directly parallel to Section 28, the now-revoked law that banned schools and local authorities from “promoting” gay identities until 2003.
