I was against leaving as it was a stalking horse for racism, but if we want to rejoin the true downsides should be acknowledged.

Well, it’s interesting that the centrist “where’s the money going to come from?” lot (de facto neoliberals) are the loudest rejoiners.

The contrast between the utterly sycophantic coverage this week of Kemi Badenoch, whose party has a truly atrocious electoral record under her leadership, and the utterly dismissive coverage of the Greens, tells you everything you need to know about media bias in the UK

Why the Holborn and St Pancras By-Election Was a Good Result for the Green Party

The dismissive coverage of Zack Polanski’s party obscures a far bigger truth about the rise of the left in British politics

In 1975 I was at a free pop festival surrounded by stoned hippies. Over the PA: “The undercover drug squad officer is the guy with ‘light’ on one tit and ‘bitter’ on the other.”

They certainly endlessly support the household analogy of the economy which is a neoliberal position.

Not joking when I blame neoliberalism for this. It’s a philosophy that knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.

Working through the US govt’s payment systems, Elon Musk discovered 14 “magic money computers” that could “just issue payments” and “send money out of nothing.” What confounded his neoliberal understanding of govt finance is precisely the sort of monetary plumbing #MMT has long explained.

They could be onto a good thing if they were straightforward about the proposition that the clever people have fucked it up so why not let us dumb shits have a go?

Before they split out Sounds from iPlayer you could search for all sorts of ancient weird shit from the radio archive. Now that was interesting, and unique!

On the day he is a main candidate in a very important by-election, Facebook has *suspended* Zack Polanski’s account. This ON ITS OWN should be reason to vote Green in Holborn & St Pancras. This is foreign interference in British democracy. And guess what, the media (and Labour) is silent.

Social media is full of claims like 'the government's running out of money' and 'we need to balance the budget'. Sound familiar. The Social Media Critique tool teaches you to spot the misinformation moves; and land the MMT reframe that wins the argument. #MMT #UKGreenParty #Economics #UKPolitics

Try neoclassical economics. He poses as anti neoliberalism, but he sticks to the household economic analogy consistent with neoliberalism, which logically leads to austerity. The idea you have to cut one thing to pay for another is an example of the household analogy.

The household analogy, the “where is the money going to come from?” model, the idea that you have to reduce spending in one area to fund another, is all neoliberal bollocks. “Anything we can actually do, we can afford” JM Keynes.
