The public has been kept in the dark about one of the most significant transfers of British sovereignty to foreign corporations in modern history. Through a web of so-called Freeports and SEZs, mega-corporations now exercise quasi-governmental powers over vast swathes of British territory.

Is Rachel Reeves constrained by the City?
Is the City really stopping Rachel Reeves from doing what Labour wants, or is she just using it as a convenient excuse for her neoliberal austerity?
This is the audio version:
This is the transc...
A narrative is recited almost everywhere: that Rachel Reeves is being "forced" to cut benefits, and is faced with "hard choices" or "no choice". This story, a staple of neoliberal doctrine, is completely false, as @richardjmurphy.bsky.social explains: www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/03...

Trump's so-called "DEI Purges" are nothing more than racist bigotry. There's no other way to describe it. In his new video, @garrisonhayes.bsky.social tells the stories of Black military heroes Trump just wiped from history.

We canβt fact-check our way out of this crisis. Disordered discourse isnβt just about false claims - it reshapes power, identity, and how people engage with reality itself. Thereβs no single fix, but one crucial pillar of the response is education.

We need to learn from this in the UK. Reform plc are part of the same hate movement, using the same cloak of populist lies to gain power prior to disenfranchising the many to enrich the few. And we don't even have a written constitution.

Zone Fever, trickle-down economics, and CCS are lethal combinations for residents entrapped in free zones.
The UK is being carved up into patchworks of corporate sovereignties.
This is the tip of a deeply sinister iceberg. Labour's ultimate betrayal of working people via their pursuit of SEZs and Freeports literally seals the deal with the plutocrats. See europeanpowell.substack.com/p/zone-fever...
