Congratulations @zackpolanski.bsky.social – that is quite some margin of victory.

Looking forward to seeing you take on the shithouses of established power.

This was a good exchange. I enjoyed reading it. We need to come together to overthrow this cabal

Private equity sale of €6bn fee-paying schools group Cognita on brink of collapse Blackstone and CVC had expressed interest in company even as private schools have been hit by UK tax on fees

PE has devoured care homes, vets, GP surgeries, high streets.

It buys/sells schools too, albeit private ones.

Education commodified. Parents complain about paying VAT on fees; silent on PE profiteering.

How long before PE is let into state schools?

This πŸ‘‡ Exactly this.

And I get tired of telling people that we're seeing the loss of all the things we hold dear just to sate the rapacious fuckers' greed.

There must come a point when the penny drops… even for the hardest of thinking

Well then that's your opinion Tracey. And mine is different.

I've watched and listened to countless interviews and the minister sent out has not pointed out their positive policies but just defended their indefensible policies which pander to people that will never vote for them in a million years

And to add, as someone on the left, I was clearly and unambiguously told where the door was if I didn't like their policies.

It's naive to think they maintain my good will after that appalling communication.

Incredibly naive.

Yes. I agree. But they are the government. Instead of going missing when there are hard discussions to be had they need to front it up and take on the media.

They've fallen for the media love in pre GE in the same way the frog fell for the scorpion saying it won't bite if it catches a ride.

I'd posit the reason for that is their comms are absolutely useless. They are happy to communicate how they're tackling 'immigration' but you don't see that same vigour applied to the things you're thinking of.

That's an own goal of their own making.

Palestine is not complicated. It’s colonized land. Its people are occupied, starved, and bombed. And they are fighting back as they have every right to do. You either support liberation or you support apartheid. Pick a side.

An inconvenient truth for Labour:

NHS privatisation is entirely un-evidence based and the public has never agreed to it.

All evidence is that privatisation is:

1) more expensive for taxpayers, and
2) has worse outcomes for patients

Private hedge funds in charge of vital NHS services.

Fuck them all off. Every last one of them.

And the bastard ministers and governments who think this is the way to rescue the #NHS.

It's a fucking scandal

Hmmm. This is very much continuity neoliberalism.

Shitehawks rob us and the government will bail them out.

AI Should Help Fund Creative Labor Mariana Mazzucato & Fausto Gernone show how today’s innovation economy exploits the very people it relies on and propose a fairer system.

Generative AI runs on a paradox: it relies on content creators - artists, journalists and coders - whose work trains its models while eroding their incomes. The fix is to treat creative knowledge as a public good and fund it collectively.

Read piece by Fausto Gernone and me.

Blimey. These supposedly balanced, and thoughtful soft left political commentators (Gabriel Milland in this case) have incredibly thin skin. A simple question such as asking for clarification of left wing media gets a block.

Lily-livered twat posts something contentious then flaps when questioned.

Who in the Labour Party gave a damn about civil liberties and the right to protest? Damn few, and the ones that did were hounded out via bullshit and shenanigans, while Sensible Moderate Centrists laughed and applauded. And here we now are, with the consequences of this awesome stupidity.

They've both moved on. And? We've signed @chrisgoreham. And Ante is perfectly placed to weigh in. As will Jurasek. And whom ever else we sign.

And don't forget that massive bastard centre back. He'll get on the end of Jacob's corners.

Trust. The. Process.

We've been here MANY times

If I'm walking down the street wearing the shirt of my football team, do you think you might be able to work out who I support?

If I walk down the street in a plain teeshirt, how would you know?

We all know the point she's making. And to think otherwise is, quite honestly, wilfully mischievous.

Did Rachel Riley herself not say that she doesn't look Jewish or doesn't that matter any more?
