Billy this is Harry Brook. He’s one of the most talented batsmen in the world. His only defect is he was lobotomised

“Giving children their childhood back?”

So reopening the 2,000 youth clubs closed under neoliberalism? The 1,000 children’s centres?
Recreating the 10,000 + playing fields lost?
Or the 800 playgrounds lost in the last 10 years?
The 1,000 libraries?
The after-school clubs closed?

I think a giant imperial military blob with an unwieldy and overfunded warfare state making catastrophic tactical decisions by misusing expensive equipment in unsuitable conditions is among the most believable things in that entire movie

The whole case is sad and awful but it’s particularly grim watching how the far right are turning on their former token acceptable minority immediately.

"Blair won 3 general elections so you need to listen to him" yeah well Harold Wilson won four so I guess it's time for a 98% marginal tax rate on unearned income and price controls on milk.

For any British viewer, watching these Irish commentators explain why it is important for Ireland to boycott a football match against Israel is like being thrust into an alternate universe. One where morality – not money – guides the agenda.

A different world is possible.

As someone who graduated with a master’s in 2023, spent 2 years unable to get work and so had to return to university, I’ve been screaming this for years and it’s great it’s finally being reported on

What it’s missing is that even those with jobs are mostly…

British voters will say they 'never asked for this' then go out and vote for the 9th or 10th attempt at re-heated thatcherism.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Thought experiment:

If you said “I support Israel’s onslaught against Gaza” there would be no consequences for your career.

What would happen if you said “I want to do to Israel what they’ve done to Gaza”?

Easy way of testing whose lives matter and whose don’t!

Schrödinger's Chippy. An essential part of British cultural heritage but simultaneously something that no-one was ever able to afford

This is real patriotism.

[Chłoddy @OfSymbols]

Remember around 2017 when Corbyn would say stuff like “payday loans are bad” and the Guardian would publish earnest counter arguments completely unprompted.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

This is batshit.

The Greens had ZERO councillors in Waltham Forest.

They just won 31 councillors - and have won control of the council!

[Elvis Buñuelo @Mr_Considerate]

The Green Party, which I have never voted for, has betrayed its founding principles, which I have spent decades dismissing. How has such a noble cause, which I have never supported, been so betrayed?
