In 2015, Andy Burnham denounced "unjustified spitefulness towards Israel". He called Israel a beacon of civil liberties. Yet in October 2023, he called for a ceasefire in Gaza - long before Starmer. The question now is: does he recognise the genocide? will he impose sanctions?

The Supermarkets are screaming this morning "NOOOOO don't stop us from ripping people off" The Supermarkets have been price fixing for years, there is no competition, BlackRock, Vanguard, Legal and General and HSBC own them all. It's time we reduced their ripoff prices for them

Last night, Eileen Higgins defeated her MAGA opponent to become Miami’s next mayor — the first Democratic-aligned candidate to win this seat in nearly 30 years. This is a massive flip: In 2021, the Republican incumbent won re-election by more than 60 points. Last night, Higgins won by 19 points.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents. It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years. There should be no profit in education or healthcare.
