All of us.... every single last one of us... are descended from immigrants. And without it, this country would just be a bunch of uninhabited islands on the edge of the world. Everything that built this country... and everything it is... springs from that. And we should embrace it, not decry it.

Labour has a whopping great majority and four years left to turn this country around.

They should be setting the agenda, not chasing about trying to placate voters of a party with five MPs who will never vote for them anyway.

It's not only disappointing... it's embarrassing

Incredibly depressing day. I've spent my entire life being told by British governments how dreadful immigration is. New Labour did it. The Coalition. The Brexiters. Now Starmer. All of them accusing the ones who came before them of failing to clamp down. The same old vacant mean-spirited bollocks.

New reports tell us cattle and sheep farming can be sustainable – don’t believe them, it’s all bull | George Monbiot Feeding the world sustainably is an incredibly complex challenge, yet some people are trying to sell us a bucolic fairytale, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

The cottagecore, romantic path to starvation and environmental breakdown. This week's column is on the latest delusions about how we might produce our food.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

The Teeswork Freeport corruption in short.

2 businessmen paid £110 for a £100m site.
We paid £462m to clean it up they paid nothing
They made £100m selling scrap metal from clean up, we received nothing.

Michael Gove covers it up.

PR campaign may have fuelled food study backlash, leaked document shows Eat-Lancet report recommended shift to more plant-based, climate-friendly diet but was extensively attacked online

1. Whenever you see really vicious and widespread "spontaneous" attacks on scientific findings that challenge powerful economic interests, you can be assured that corporate lobbyists have been busy behind the scenes.

Wes Streeting MP is talking tosh.

In a democracy little is ever "settled", and certainly not a decision made in an advisory referendum that most voters now view as a mistake and a failure.

Labour need to take the Brexit blinkers off before they crash the UK.

Found Adolescence a properly adult, complex, humane drama. To see it whittled down into 'ban phones in school' is so depressing.

What if the next big AI breakthrough came from Europe?

Today we announced an ambitious AI Continent Action Plan to make this happen ↓

Petition: Hold a referendum on re-joining the European Union I want the government to hold a referendum on whether the UK should Rejoin the European Union.

Don't add 10% to USA imports, agreed, it just hurts us.

But immediately call off trade deal talks. Immediately call off state visit.

THE biggest thing we can do to hurt Trump and Putin, is to immediately apply to join the EU.

So pls Sign & Share this...
