Darren Jones is a bit sad about the position Labour is in You chose to go after disabled people, refugees & pensioners. You chose to arm a genocide. You chose to side with the super rich & the profiteering utility companies. You chose to tell your supporters to f**k off. This is all on you

It's great to be part of a progressive and positive force for change, rather than the message of division and hate coming from the right and far right. Hope is a great thing, because we CAN change things if enough of us want it.

UK trains, including in Scotland, are all rented. It is the most profitable part of the rail network and was privatised in 1993-1997. Now we rent £9bn worth of trains which last for 25 years, for £3bn a year. It is the worst deal ever.

Why can I remember no Labour politician making this point, this well? Everybody except the Greens seems to think the best way to fight Reform is to agree with Farage about everything. This, right here, is brilliant. And genuinely patriotic. And so, so true.

Your country needs you (to wave a flag) #comics #politics #patriotism
A comic of a dialogue between two people. The first wears a T-shirt and a hat with the word 'Flag' written on it, as well as holding two flags that also have the word 'Flag' on them. The second person next to him doesn't have any flags. The flag holder is shouting "I LOVE MY COUNTRY". The second person says "Great, me too. So let's feed its kids." Flag holder says "No". Second person: "Make sure everyone in it is healthy, safe and educated. Protect them from being exploited. Give them a fair chance." Flag holder: "Pass". Second person: "Protect its nature, its clean air, its rivers, create green jobs and communities, buy local, become energy independent with renewable resources." Flag holder: "Hippy shit." Second person: "Take back control of essential utilities from private monopolies and profiteers." Flag holder: "Nah." Second person: "Strengthen alliances, build bridges, exchange knowledge, help each other." Flag holder, eye rolling: "Yawn." Second person, increasingly exasperated: "Fund its iconic institutions, its culture, arts and letters, the best things it's known for, learn from its real history so we get better." Flag holder: "Woke." Second person: "Ok, what it is specifically that you love about this country? And what have you ever done for it?" They stare at each other. Flag holder, angry: "You HATE your country."

Brexit led to 1,500 deaths a year as EU nurses left UK. Replaced by less experienced or skilled staff, which had a knock-on effect for patients. Brexit has done immense harm. No impact assessment was provided. Farage/Reform still doing the same with their nationalist rhetoric.

Out of 55.2m UK adults 17.8m have annual income of less than £12,570. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined. FOUR Britons have more than 20m people combined. Failure of economic/political policy. Govts still squeeze the poor. Good society can't be built on economic injustice.
