Which party for proper industrial socialism, rooted in solidarity and reciprocity?

It was always Labour, and it can be again 🌹

[Luke Charters MP @lukejcr]

Back from a great afternoon out for @AndyBurnhamGM in Makerfield where anticipation is building and every house is talking about…

… the World Cup of course! Flags in windows, kids in shirts, people on doorsteps excited. That pride is real, and it belongs to everyone. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

But… as the tournament draws closer, Reform UK are going to try to use it for their own political benefit.

Thing is, it’s worth looking at the actual record when it comes to football. They are total jokers…. 😬

Lee Anderson?
England in a Euros final for the first time in history. Boycotted matches because players took the knee against racism.

Nigel Farage?
Turned up at Ipswich in a “Farage 10” shirt. The club CEO had to apologise for the “harm and distress” caused. Then set his sights on Sunderland, a club that just qualified for Europe. Presumably that’ll put him off, for now.

Then.. there’s the shirts.
“Reform FC.” A party that spent years saying politics should stay out of football.

Farage called England’s Euros kit “an absolute joke” over a minor flag change. Lee Anderson piled on too.

Then they launched their own football shirt with… a modified Union Jack.

It was also upside down. You GENUINELY cannot make it up. 🤣

Football is at its best when it brings people together. Across communities, across backgrounds, across differences.

It’s about people from all backgrounds forgetting about life for 90 minutes. Or maybe extra-time and penalties in the case of this Summer. About what we all have in common.

Proper fans will be focused on the tournament, then back watching their clubs come August. I can’t wait to be back at the LNER myself.

But Reform? They’ll claim it for the moment, then not go into a single ground next season. They just don’t care.

So when you see Reform flying flags, cosplaying in vintage shirts, or belting the anthem, remember that it’s just an act.

Football is more than just a game for all of us.

But to them? It’s just a political prop.

No thanks. ❌

Greens often seem to imply that their tragic fake radicalism that threatens nobody whatsoever is actually very dangerous.

How does one decolonise British farming? It's fundamentally unserious social signalling, not politics. They aren't planning to return to the era before the enclosures act, are they? They aren't going to give the land back to Brythonic tribes of yore.
Unless they want to decolonise farming the ay Zimbabwe did? But they don't have the military either.

This is fake radicalism for self indulgent people allergic to real jobs

[Caspar Chatham @cc4nec]

Thank you to @leftrestoration for supporting my campaign for Youth Rep!

Would urge young members to check out their work- and to get their candidates onto the ballot alongside me too 🌹

[Andrew Achilleos @AndyAchilleos]

Labour has launched the British Summer Savings scheme. 👇

🚌 Free busses for children in August.
🎢 VAT cuts on attractions.
🎞️ VAT cuts on cinema tickets.
🍽️ Cheaper kids meals.

Helping families kick the cost of living crisis in the face this summer! 🙌🌹

The grotesque spectacle of a professional lobbyist looking down their nose at people with real jobs is a common phenomena in the media and Britain overall

[Restoration @leftrestoration]

Tedious common men as politicians:

- Ramsay Mcdonald; son of a farmhand and professional clerk. Ran Britain when it controlled 20% of the world economy.

- Nye Bevan; former mineworker. Founded the NHS.

- Ernest Bevin; former truck driver, instrumental in founding NATO

What have any of our posh Oxbridge leaders achieved in the last thirty years even closely comparable?

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

We need more blue collar workers selected as #Labour candidates for elections to #Westminster and beyond, not just people who's dads were toolmakers decades ago.

@leftrestoration will work hard to make that a reality if elected to the #NEC.

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

I've spent my entire professional career as a care worker. Now I'm standing for election to Labour's NEC.

Thanks to the CLPs that have nominated me and other @leftrestoration members so far.

You have until noon, June 26th, if you haven't already.

It's got to be Andy. He's on our side, the side of working class people like me.

[Andy Burnham @AndyBurnhamGM]

Politics isn’t working for places like ours.

I will change that.

Sources close to Andy Burnham have told @lorintbc that he does not back calls to allow Jeremy Corbyn's return as a Labour MP (note: a source close to Corbyn recently said “that ship has sailed” anyway): https://t.co/LkFtFVDy8a

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

@Neil_Littlewood @ThePrizeForce @MattSingh_ And, unless weve entered an alternate reality, Thatcher was never Labour leader

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

@DPJHodges There's a realistic scenario here where Andy Burnham wins very convincingly and the prospect of a contested leadership election evaporates instantly.

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

@Stsantek Not withstanding my own personal dislike of the idea of letting him back in, I also think it would be a huge distraction which would be wholly unneccecary and damaging at a time when Andy Burnham would need to be focusing on more important bread and butter issues.

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

@Stsantek That doesn't mean we should let him back in

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

@LukeTryl And that's from a standing start, surely? It doesn't take account of what he might do in office as PM and how the public react to that for obvious reasons.

[Cllr Sam Theodoridi for Labour NEC 2026 @SamTheodoridi]

@Stsantek But now he has been kicked out, there can't be any going back, we'll get crucified.

I also think he did allow anti-semitism to become normalised and accepted within the party, and I can never forgive him for that as an anti-racist.
