Massive shout out to East Mids Ambulance Service and the Stroke Unit at Lincoln County Hospital. My hubby suffered a stroke in the early hours of Boxing Day. So scary, but he was brilliantly cared for and came home yesterday. We couldn't be more grateful to *everyone* involved β€οΈπŸ’™ #NHS

When more people start to realise that Starmer and Co are cut from the same cloth as the other Tories, political apathy will follow. There needs to be a legitimate inclusive socialist party to capture these voters by the next General Election. The alternative doesn't bear thinking about.

The Prime Minister should make a statement, immediately, to confirm whether UK missiles have been fired into Russia. Full statement below.

Rachel Reeves’ poverty of ambition Rachael Reeves turned up at Larry Elliott's farewell drinks at the Guardian last night. I did not have the chance to talk to her, but nor did many people. She looked as frightened of the world as she...

Rachel Reeves’ poverty of ambition www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/11... Reeves wants to take the savings of the UK’s local council employees and pass them to mega funds in the City of London, whom she would like to use 5% of the funds to invest locally. What could go wrong? The list is long….

What would a good fiscal rule look like?

What would a good fiscal rule look like? youtu.be/02ym4WNoObs?... If we want to change things, we do have to change the rules of government. We have to change them so that people are at their epicentre and that things that matter are the goals that government must achieve.

Watch as Trump's Project 2025 installs 'capitalism without democracy'.
Beware of the UK/US 'special relationship' it is not what it appears to be.
Watch as the UK/US 'special relationship' turbocharges corporate governance in SEZs, and Freeports, and Free cities.

Free cities are the next evolutionary stage of SEZs/Freeports. Brownfield/Greenfield sites are not an obstacle for venture capitalists, deregulation takes care of removing planning permissions while embedding secondary legislation in free zones which means zero Parliamentary or public scrutiny.

Deregulation on State aid (public money) acts like a lure for the asset classes to set up shop in free zones, note Sunak stated that 'EU ports were unsuitable for the UK economy'.

Join the dots there are only overt indicators that Starmer's policies are thoroughly right-wing, and dangerous for UK democracy, his changed Labour party has continued the neoliberal patterns of Reagan, Thatcher, Schroder, and Blair, who Thatcher said was her β€œgreatest achievement'’.
