If you are kicking yourself because, despite your best intentions, you haven't quite got round to sponsoring me on the Big Ride for Palestine on Saturday in aid of Gaza Sunbirds, don't despair. There's still time.

If you have already donated to sponsor me on the Big Ride for Gaza on 8 August, many thanks.
If you meant to, there is still time.
Gaza Sunbirds do brilliant work with the many Gazans disabled by Israeli bombs and shells, help them continue it.

I am riding in the Big Ride for Palestine on 8 August to raise money for Gaza Sunbirds para athletes and to aid their work in supporting the far too many people in Gaza who have been disabled by Israeli bombs and bullets
Please give generously

@BellRibeiroAddy @socialistcam Much of this is good. Taking water back into public ownership is important but the value of the assets must be discounted by the cost of bringing them up to minimum legal standards,that will be near zero not the inflated price that asset managers will propose.

Andy Burnham is going to offer us Starmerism without Starmer but with a smile. He got his Makerfield seat courtesy of Josh Simon who was a key operative in the deceitful Labour Together McSweeny led manoeuvres to get Starmer as Labour Party leader
