Watch our UK deputy editor @writesbright.bsky.social in conversation with TUC general secretary Paul Nowak
Are you appalled that the Reform candidate here in Manchester, Matt Goodwin has said โyoung girlsโ should be given โbiological realityโ checks? And has said that there should be a โnegative child benefit taxโ on โthose who donโt have offspringโ

Or, hear me out, maybe women don't need lectures by the likes of Matt Goodwin?

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records.
Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'.
Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract.

Johnson partied as pensioners died alone. Why didn't Johnson get this pressure to resign. Farage appointed a Russian Agent as the leader of Reform UK in Wales. Why doesn't Farage get this pressure to resign The answer is the Tory Press.

Wes Streeting still ready to challenge Starmer despite show of unity, allies say.
He had majority of just over 500 votes in the last election.
He would take Labour further to the right. Funded by healthcare companies, handing the NHS to corporations and private equity.

Mandelson revelations show need for tougher UK constraints to resist rule of the rich.
Big money buys access to policymakers, ministers, thwarts threatening laws. Political corruption is normalised. Democracy hijacked l
Must end political donations, second jobs for MPs; must control lobbyists.

All those involved in the disastrous appointment of Peter Mandelson as Ambassador to the US must be held to account, and it is right that personnel in Number 10 most supportive of Mandelson face consequences. We now need to tear out the regressive politics of elite privilege and toxic factionalism that enabled this scandal - and which will only produce more - root and branch.

Epstein was in and out of Russia every few months according to his travel documents, but Mandelson was partying in nightclubs in St Petersburg and regularly in Moscow.
How did our intelligence services fail to pick this up? Or were their reports and investigations suppressed?
ยฃ99987 and counting: graduates trapped by student loans.
Govt froze repayment threshold. By 2030, be at minimum wage.
At the margin grads pay 20% inc tax + 8%NIC +9% repayment. Insane.

Public ownership of water in England would mean no dividends to pay, ยฃ85bn paid since privatization.
Cost of borrowing would be around half, guaranteed by govt.
Reduction in consultant fees, don't need so many.
Simpler regulation, no shareholders to appease.
Result: more investment, lower bills.
