Some ideas for the next government

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

I was supposed to chair the @hasanthehun discussion at SXSW this week, who's been banned from entering the UK by Shabana Mahmood. First of all, @sxsw must facilitate a way for Hasan and Cenk to contribute remotely, as a bare minimum refusal to comply with government censorship.

Britain at the height of its power and prestige was home to Karl Marx and Giuseppe Mazzini. It was a refuge for Alexander Herzen and Victor Hugo.

Now, in 2026, it wont allow American YouTubers & streamers to enter because they criticised Israel. 🥀

[Oli Dugmore @OliDugmore]

As a minimum, we should scrap interest charged on student debt

[BBC Question Time @bbcquestiontime]

“How do you expect people to integrate if you’ve taken away their services?”

The Green Party’s Zack Polanski says people are “angry”, blaming austerity and calling for politicians to make “different political choices” & speak in a “positive” way about migration

Retweet if you would join Jeremy Corbyn’s and Zarah Sultana’s party

[Mike H @mikoh123]

@garyseconomics I understand that it’s difficult to tax rich people because politicians are rich people and they are funded by rich people and they put loopholes in the system that means rich people don’t pay tax … and it ends up being paid by working people. 👏

Yanis Varoufakis destroys the Labour Party manifesto:

• Happy to put caps on child benefits but not on the super profits of bankers

• No rationale for having a different rate of tax for Capital gains to income tax

• It’s just more austerity.

Keir Starmer on Jeremy Corbyn's manifesto in 2020 and 2024.

[Plaid Cymru 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @Plaid_Cymru]

Will the real Keir Starmer please stand up?

[Oli Dugmore @OliDugmore]

This is how you do it

[Ragged Trousered Philanderer @RaggedTP]

Liverpool pensioner Audrey White tears Keir Starmer apart as he's forced to sit in stunned silence and listen to some home truths.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

He's a self-described Blairite, who isn't voting Labour.

That's because @MichaelLCrick has integrity as a journalist.

He can see Starmer's allies have purged their critics - and that will make for bad government.

[James Foster @JamesEFoster]

Doesn’t like being confronted with his lies. Does he?

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

On Sky News just now: compare how Neil Coyle and Barry Sheerman were treated to Diane Abbott.

It's obvious that the UK's first black female MP was held to a different standard than her white parliamentary colleagues.

[BBC Wales News @BBCWalesNews]

Residents in one of the most deprived areas of Wales say they are 'angry' and 'astounded' at the Welsh government who, they say, 'don't understand what life is like' there

A plurality would fight an ‘imminent invasion’ (make that non-academic and I’m sure it would be much higher).

But why would an able bodied young man want to fight in Daghestan, or God knows where, when he can’t afford to get on the housing ladder and lives in his overdraft?

[Marl Karx @BareLeft]

Happy Anniversary to the last time I thought politics could change things.

[rob delaney @robdelaney]

Had a chat with the MP from Islington North about our local hospital & the wonder that is the NHS.
