The Left will be mean to you on social media but the Right will crack your skull and deport your kids, so I guess we're the bad guys. 🤷

In all seriousness I've seen people struggle to fit into left-wing spaces bc they come in expecting thunderous applause but receive homework instead...

UK bank bosses plan to set up Visa and Mastercard alternative amid Trump fears Exclusive: First meeting to be held over domestic payments system aimed at reducing reliance on US networks

this is one of the most important things the UK government has considered doing in years and is about 20 years too late but that's better than never www.theguardian.com/business/202...

God it would be funny if we nationalised it

Just wait til they find out what all the animals are up to

Ok go inside then, do anything but whatever all this is

Lol jesus Christ it's just L after L for these losers

Victory to Palestine Action!

Can't believe Zohran did it!

"whataboutism" is bullshit made up by liberal hypocrites when confronted with real world comparisons.

You people love comparing your enemy to some hypothetical utopia rather than the actual bloodsoaked reality of your worldview in practice, it's ridiculous and it's plainly obvious

Everything in those articles is consistent with what I've said - if you're not interested in changing your mind in line with the facts then that's fine, I guess, but I'm not gonna waste my time going round in circles with you

Can you link to those statements? Both spoke at the conference on Sunday and were pretty unequivocal

also lol remember earlier when you were "happy to be corrected"?

As I said, there is no "pro-union" Your Party on any ballot paper. The position was always that Scottish members should be the ones to make that decision, and as of Sunday we have done.

The final vote on the amended documents will finish today, and if approved the party constitution will be finalised with both points in place.

(I haven't really been following developments in Wales, I think they're still to have their conference?)

So *currently* there is only the UK party, which backs Irish reunification but leaves national questions for Scotland and Wales entirely to the members in each.

On Saturday, we in Scotland voted to start the process of becoming an independent sister party and on Sunday voted to back indy.

What makes you think it's trying to be both?

Lol I'd hope so, calling your anarchist federation "a fed" would be an all-time classic in poor optics

Rude of him to wait until after the YP Scotland conference to resign imo, really woulda added to the festival atmosphere

-council by-elections that would follow (lots of candidates are councillors). That's also a great chance to get folk into community councils and learning there in advance of locals next year.

Puls all this electoralism is only half the party, we'll also have ongoing community organising throughout

No doubt - like I'm gonna be candid here, I don't expect that we'd do enormously well in these elections. Getting anyone in at all would be a surprise!

Imo it's a fantastic opportunity to build some initial campaigning chops, identify leadership and start on a stronger footing to contest-

YP Scotland just voted both to back independence and to be an organisationally independent party

Hwfg 😬

Oh shit they're giving him the jerbly crubbins treatment, it's so over

There are many legitimate criticisms of the USSR but I don't think anyone can accuse them of being too pro-Czar

I notice you didn't answer my question

How were things before and after communism? Were they better?

I can check the numbers for you if you tell me which country you lived in and when ☺️

Lemme know when you come up with such a system, in the meantime communism is a huuuuge step forward from [gestures broadly] this

STARMER OUT

STREETING IN THEN PROMPTLY ALSO OUT

The unelected interim leadership of Your Party has still not formalised local branches or ensured members have access to their own data. This should have been resolved months ago, allowing local members to democratically select a Your Party candidate for the upcoming Gorton & Denton by-election. The candidate list is now published and it is clear that Hannah Spencer, a local plumber and trade unionist, is the strongest challenger to Labour and Reform. I am, therefore, giving my personal critical support to her and the Green Party in this by-election, and I urge others to do the same. I have always been clear that the left is strongest when it is united. Our real opponents are not one another. They are Reform and the far-right. As a young Muslim woman, I understand viscerally what it would mean for the far-right to gain power in this country. This is not an abstract debate for me, nor the millions of people across the country whose safety would be directly affected. That is why I want Your Party to become what it was founded to be: a mass working-class party that unites the left, provides a genuine socialist and anti-imperialist alternative, and prevents Nigel Farage and his cronies from ever getting the keys to Downing Street. Together, Your Party will be that vehicle. Ultimately, defeating fascism must be our number one priority. ZARAH SULTANA MP Your Party MP for Coventry South

My statement on the Gorton & Denton by-election:

To be clear to all landlords in the UK: you shouldn't exist. Buy to let mortgages should never have been allowed. You should never have been encouraged to exploit others to fund your retirement.

Even Adam Smith didn't like landlords.
