Brexit trade meetings remain a state secret Secrecy maintained over the extent to which Britain is willing to abandon environmental and consumer protections to secure trade deals after Brexit.

The Supreme Court has struck down attempts to scrutinise the government's Brexit trade deals. @brendanmontague.bsky.social

To minimize overshoot, global greenhouse gas emissions must be halved by 2030 compared to 2010 levels.

Arctic tern - Wikipedia

“[The Arctic tern] sees two summers per year and more daylight than any other creature on the planet.”

“A tern ringed as an unfledged chick on the Farne Islands in the northern summer of 1982 reached Melbourne just three months after fledging – a journey of more than 22,000 km.”

Turns out people want to have a say in how their local area is run!

Karen Weech ran a brilliant campaign which secured more votes than Labour and Greens combined.

We’re taking that energy into the #Newcastle council elections next year.

Durham Miners Association Secretary General Alan Mardghun has just called out Darren Grimes’ behaviour and called him a liar at the 139th Durham Miners Gala in front of 200k+ people.

Signs of new life: is the British left making a comeback? Talk of a new party led by Jeremy Corbyn is just the latest example of a growing clamour for leftwing alliances

Is the British left making a comeback?

We never went away. We just got battle hardened and better organised.

Join us and let’s put politics back in the service of our communities. ✊🏽

Wow! 😲

Welcome to our new members!

Turns out taxing the rich, supporting the most vulnerable in society, creating good jobs and opposing genocide is really popular.

Who’s with us?

Majority members on the streets of #Newcastle today. ✊🏽

57% of Brits want to end all arms sales to Israel.

Brave decision from @zarahsultana. Starmer’s Labour Party is unrecognisable from its trade union and working class roots.

We’re already up and running with events, assemblies and council campaigns, working alongside north east Greens and local independents.

Change is coming!

The #Welfare Bill that passed this week is an attack on dignity and justice.

#Majority and Crips Against The Cuts are taking the fight to #Labour HQ in #Newcastle.

The bill must be scrapped.

Nothing about us, without us. We won’t back down. This is a battle for our future.

The UK government is still providing support to the Israeli government in their genocide in Gaza.

Enough is enough.

March with us on Saturday to demand an end to Israel's slaughter of the Palestinian people. Meet at Grey's monument at 12pm. #FreePalestine

Up to 170 Labour MPs consider acquiring a backbone This Labour government is set to balance their books on the backs of the most vulnerable in society - Spines-R-Us overwhelmed with requests

“There’s been an unexpected surge in backbone production over the past week. Early reports suggest up to 170 Labour MPs have placed last-minute orders. Happily, their spines are set to arrive just in time for the debate on Personal Independence Payments.”

Group of 8 people sitting in chairs in a bookshop. The people appear to be in conversation.

Many thanks to People's Bookshop in Durham for hosting our fantastic reading group on Thursday, where the topic was public transport.

If you're interested in discussing ideas about how we can improve the politics of our country, come along to our next Majority event.

🚨Longbenton and Benton by-election

Last Saturday we had nearly 50 Majority, Green and North Tyneside Community Independent members leafleting the ward!

Let’s beat that tomorrow.

Help get Green candidate Jim Howard elected!

A newborn baby had to stay in hospital for 5.5 months in the USA in 2011 after being born premature.

The hospital sent their parents this bill after 3 months.

Imagine what they would have done if they weren't insured or couldn't pay their percentage of this bill?

49 Majority & Green members came together today to back Jim Howard in the Longbenton & Benton by-election.

That’s what democracy looks like.

Tribal politics divides us. But if we share goals like ending austerity & tackling climate change, we can unite. ✊

What do people want in politicians? Well, it's not to hear your dad was a toolmaker. Starmer has been wasting his time with that incessant line - but politicians like Farage will have similar problems before long

Asked “what do you want from politicians?” top answers were:
- Listening to people
- Keeping their promises
- Delivering Value for money, and
- Working cross-party.
All the “I am working class” spin makes little difference.

The decision by the County Durham RefUK administration to take it down signals hostility. This letter from Bishop Auckland Pride explains it beautifully.

The Prime Minister imitating Enoch Powell’s ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech is sickening.

That speech fuelled decades of racism and division. Echoing it today is a disgrace. It adds to anti-migrant rhetoric that puts lives at risk.

Shame on you, Keir Starmer.

Out in the sunshine talking to folk about our big ‘citizens assembly’ on Sunday 18 May.

With politics so polarised and people feeling frustrated and ignored, now’s the time to make our voices heard.
