Six years ago, his principles were entirely different.
Beautifully summed up as ever by @sangitamyska.bsky.social

Revealed: UK’s multibillion AI drive is built on ‘phantom investments’ www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
Clara Mattei: capitalism is not natural - it’s enforced
"Right now we are in a situation in which the violence of the economy has reached a very very obscene peak. We have 12 people in the world owning more than the bottom four billion people."

Transitioning to clean energy faster would protect the UK from world events that raise the oil price :-)
Power To The Bin Strikers: @unitetheunion.bsky.social thanks Banner Theatre, the song will help to remind the public why unite members are on strike ➡️ @bhamcitycouncil.bsky.social have fired and rehired senior loaders (former WRCOs) and drivers onto contracts cut by up to £8k.

I saw the preview of The Trials @trontheatre.bsky.social last night. It’s superb. In the near future, child survivors of climate collapse are judging which adults complicit in the disaster should be executed. I shivered at the writer’s fate. It’s like watching our entire generation on trial. See it.
NEW: John Swinney has said he would 'consider' banning US military aircraft from using Prestwick Airport if it was confirmed they were involved in strikes on Iran

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs
Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.
This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

Just fascinating to see Blair, a man whose reputation was ruined by the Iraq war, advocate joining a war that is exponentially stupider and more chaotic. How is it possible to learn nothing from the worst mistake of your life?
Speaking out against war is important, but it isn’t enough. Those words have to be followed by action. Scotland has few powers on the world stage, but one of the areas we do control is what happens in government-owned sites and airports, writes Maggie Chapman ✍️
There are two valid reasons why you can go to war.. this has neither.
"You recognise.. if a school was targeted that would constitute a breach of intl law?"
David Lammy: "This is a febrile war zone"
"That doesn't excuse hitting schools.."
"... its for the Americans to comment on what's happened there"
So you've never commented on Russian war crimes, right?
The precedent is eerily, chillingly precise. What the current Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is doing to immigrants and refugees today is almost a carbon copy of what Sir William Joynson-Hicks was doing 100 years ago. And that's not a good thing. My column.

Alstom, a private company that made £435 million in dividends last year, wants to run "open access" trains in our railway.
Open access is no solution. They:
❌lead to billions being taken out
❌disrupt the whole railway
Build all services under GBR - in public ownership. www.bbc.com/news/article...
How come “How are you going to pay for it?” is never asked about endless war?
The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills.
The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.
"Of those who voted Labour [in 2024], just 37% would vote Labour again".
Read that again to absorb the full, astonishing weight of what it means.
Starmer, Reeves and co have burnt their house down.

Here we are again.
Call your representatives and demand they act before it's too late: (202)-224-3121
This is reckless and destructive behaviour from a White House that has shown total contempt for human rights, international law and negotiations.
As always it's civilians who pay the price.
Iran was at the negotiating table when US and Israeli strikes began — yet Keir Starmer is urging Tehran to “return” to talks. Huh?

If only there was some precedent in history of an "unsinkable" ship steering the wrong course at a potential hazard, at high speed, and not listening to warnings about the huge iceberg ahead....
SO MUCH THIS!!!!!

Red graphic featuring the EveryDoctor logo and a large quote reading "“I honestly feel no one cares anymore.” -nurse - north england. A banner at the bottom states "NHS Staff Your Voice Matters"
"I honestly feel no one cares anymore."
No nurse should ever feel this way. Corridor care is unsafe, undignified, and it’s breaking our NHS workforce.
We’ve written a letter to demand an end to this crisis. Will you send it today?

Labour MP Ian Byrne: "The lines from the PM and Cabinet today essentially labelling the Green Party as extremist is appalling, desperate and frankly embarrassing.
"It also makes very clear that the leadership has zero understanding of where it has been going wrong."
