Privatisation broke our water system. @labourslewis.bsky.social has a people-first, evidence-based alternative, and I’m backing it. Add your name to the People’s Plan for Water: ​https://actionnetwork.org/forms/water-belongs-to-all-of-us-back-the-peoples-plan-for-water?source=bluesky&​

🌹 "By not tackling the far-right head on, Labour is allowing the hostile anti-migrant rhetoric and narrative that led to the horrifying events of last summer to fester and grow." ✍️ Nathan Phillips on how Labour should take on Farage: labourlist.org/2025/01/wes-...

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2025
Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

So, the Tory manifesto did not include an inquiry into grooming gangs and the Tories ignored ALL recommendations from the 2022 report, but they attack Starmer for smearing “those concerned” as “far right”. Which he didn’t. They’re just the most repulsive bunch of arseholes. And far right apologists.

Sir Keir Starmer was singled out for praise in the 2022 report. The far right singularly fail to mention this fact.

I have full sympathy with the WASPI sisters, but I also know there are other areas requiring critical funding, not just institutions like the NHS, but improving the lives of those living in poverty. Maybe it should be means tested, I don’t know.

Whilst reform of the HoL’s is a Labour objective in the long term, it’s heartening to see Labour appointments of leaders in their field who will voice their opinions in the Lords, indeed they will insist on voice. The best the Tories could do was Toby Young, oh deary me. 🙄

Sad that she had to resign over something that took place 11 years ago and which she declared before she even took up a shadow post. The media wins again.

The right decision. MPs will now have the opportunity to discuss their concerns about the bill at committee stage and will hopefully amend it so more MPs can support it. Great to see the debate taking place in a respectful manner, wish it was like this all the time.

1. Bit cold of Streeting to see this as about ‘investment’ rather than the dignity of death. I have had several tussles with death myself, I lived, but I have beef with Streetings ill informed comments.
