It is with enormous sadness that the Club has to report the passing of Associate Director of the Club, and Chairman of the Tranmere Rovers Supporters’ Trust, Ben Harrison.
The Club would like to extend its heartfelt condolences to Polly and his family.
RIP Ben
Lying little prick…
Sunak tells LBC listeners that the NHS waiting lists are caused by doctors striking.
So you know…
The waiting list was at 4 million pre-pandemic
It’s now at 7 million
And yet he’s blaming this on fewer than 10 days of strike action.
Unreal.
[thread 🧵] Nye Bevan used to say, “politics is a blood sport” & I think any socialist who’s been chewed up & spat out of @UKLabour in the last few years can identify with that. My question is, does it have to be quite as shitty as it is & how do we defend ourselves? (1/14)
Just had a fairly hostile interview on BBC News. They are still saying that the Labour Party fostered antisemitism under Corbyn when that has been proven to be wrong. I'm fuming!
@grantshapps@Keir_Starmer Can I invoice you for the total cost of austerity, the damage to communities, the 300,000 excess deaths, the growing inequalities in British society?
Asking for several million people plunged into poverty by your government's actions.
It’s pretty clear that we now need an honest & fundamental discussion in the Labour Party about child poverty, it’s causes & the impact of the policies introduced by the Tories, including the 2 child limit, because it’s obvious some in the party don’t fully appreciate its impact.
The Labour Party should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves about the way Holly has been treated. Her expulsion was a travesty - an absolute fit up. The party has lost its way & lost a really fantastic councillor. I will be campaigning for her as an independent, that’s for sure.
As Pride month comes to an end, let’s stand up for LGBT+ refugees seeking a place of safety.
Discrimination knows no borders, and neither should our solidarity.

Coca Cola are the world’s biggest plastic polluter, and stand accused of multiple human rights abuses.
They are using Pride and LGBTQ people to make themselves look like good guys.
This action by @JustStop_Oil is completely justified.
Pride is a protest! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🫶

BREAKING: Glastonbury cancels film about Jeremy Corbyn after accusations of 'antisemitism'

Cancel Culture?
BREAKING: Labour abstains on Green Party peer, Jenny Jones’s Fatal Motion against the Public Order Bill
Labour peer, Lord Vernon Coaker, announced in the House of Lords that: “Labour will abstain on the Fatal Motion…we will not block the Bill”
There we have it. Red Tories
Today marks six years since 72 people died in the Grenfell Tower Fire, a preventable tragedy caused by institutional neglect & corporate greed.
My heart goes out to those who lost their lives, loved ones & homes.
How many more anniversaries will we spend calling for justice?
Sometimes it feels like Reeves and Starmer have been in suspended animation for the last 15 years and don’t realize we figured out austerity doesn’t work 🙃
Having lobbied both the government and Peel on this issue extensively, I'm pleased that these plans have been axed.
Ministers need to get serious about tackling the backlog and start treating vulnerable asylum seekers with respect - including by allowing them to seek paid work.
