BBC FOOD BILLS ON COURSE TO RISE BY £275 A YEAR AS PRICES JUMP Wed 23 July 2025 Image of a young woman in a supermarket

Food prices are on the rise.

One in five British people are already struggling to put food on the table. The political establishment seemingly couldn't care less.

If we want an affordable future in we'll have to fight for it ourselves.

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. ✊🏽

We need to replace our broken system with grassroots democracy. A new left party will help. Former Metro Mayor Jamie Driscoll is involved in the Corbyn/Sultana new left party - and here, he gives us the latest updates

“The establishment have their billionaire newspapers and GB News.

The 99% have mass movements.

While you’re waiting for the new party, join Majority.”

Newcastle rising again to oppose the welfare reforms

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.

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?
