A huge victory for progressive policies and a beacon of hope in dark times.

“For as long as we can remember, the working people of New York have been told by the wealthy and the well-connected that power does not belong in their hands.

Consider it coined!
This is brilliant!

I would like to coin the phrase ‘fake crusader’. The fake crusader is someone who shouts angrily at an injustice for just long enough to get attention and feel self-righteous. Despite having no track record of actually doing anything about it.

Teesside’s freeport, initiated in 2021 under Rishi Sunak, has cost £560 million far exceeding the standard £25 million allocation (22 times the standard £25m).
90% profits go to the private sector.
This clearly shows the UK model of State aid post-Brexit is utterly corrupt.

I agree, Stop The Boats

Bloody oligarchs coming over 'ere on their mega yachts, stealing our public assets, influencing our government, exploiting our work force, dumping their waste into our rivers & expecting the tax payer to foot the bill for their billion pound government contracts & bail outs

Geordies weren't letting far-right fascists spout hate in their city this weekend A far-right rogues gallery of racists came to Newcastle on Saturday 27 September - and yes, racists is the correct term. Or fascists...

When 150 far-right tried to march through Newcastle yesterday, 3000 Geordies stopped them. I’m proud of our city and its people.
My article is a first-hand account of the day.

Image of a crowd of protesters at grey’s monument in Newcastle, holding placards saying Majority against racism.

Today Newcastle stood united. ✊🏼

The far-right were in town trying to spread their hate and division. Only about 200 turned up.

Over 3000 canny geordies, including dozens of Majority members stopped them marching and sent them packing!
#TheyDidNotPass #NaePasaran

27 September 11am Grey's Monument, Newcastle MAJORITY will MARCH AGAINST RACISM. Geordies are black and white

📣TOMORROW📣

Stephen Yaxley-Lennon aka Tommy Robinson will be in the toon tomorrow with Nick Tenconi and his UKIP pals.

They seek to divide us and turn us against each other. But we won’t let them. Let’s turn out in force and show them who we are in the North East!

Gutted to have missed this. Looks like it was bloody brilliant. This ground-up organising is scarlet the right answer to the Hopeless Westminster politics captured by corporate greed and the interests of US empire.

Packed out Majority Conference with Zarah Sultana and Jamie Driscoll Over 300 packed Newcastles Discovery Museum as Jamie Driscoll and Zarah Sultana launched a call for new politics by Anya Cook - 08-09-2025 09:02 AA

Left-wing and right-wing are blunt terms. We need to get beyond them and talk about evidence, or we descend into tribalism. My article in @thecanaryuk.bsky.social

Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences?
Only one explanation now remains.
They do.
And it is what they want.

Brilliant article, as usual. History shows us what's possible, and tells us why the MSM and current political parties are irrelevant and do not have the interests of the people anywhere near their actions.

‘In the 30’s we had mass unemployment. If you can have full employment killing Germans, why can’t you have full employment building homes and hospitals and recruiting teachers and doctors?’

YouTube video by Turn Left Leaked Info Reveal TRUTH About Palestine Action Proscription

Leaked documents show that the UK government was secretly advised that Palestine Action is ‘highly unlikely’ to advocate for violence, and that within MI5 the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre said ‘Palestine Action’ activism would not be viewed as terrorism.

Three pictures of Majority members on a street stall, speaking to people in Newcastle city centre.

Another great day speaking to folk in #Newcastle city centre. So many people feel that nobody speaks for them. We’re building an inclusive coalition to change that and put power back in the hands of the people!
Join us 👇🏼
#WeAreTheMajority

It's critical that we understand where people are, and understand the issues critical to them. That's exactly what Majority are doing. As well as helping a broad coalition of left wing candidates get elected!

Great to see @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social and @zarahsultana.bsky.social announce plans for a national party built from the grassroots! Let’s show what we can do in the North East by building a progressive alliance to win #Newcastle council in 2026!

Feargal Sharkey explains that this £100bn figure everyone keeps quoting for the cost to renationalise the water industry comes from a report by the private companies!

Feargal then outlines why nationalising the water industry wouldn't cost us a penny #GMB

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.

Great to see @majorityuk.bsky.social continuing to build, consolidate, and build. The foundations of this movement are rock solid.

@majorityuk.bsky.social mentioned in a national newspaper. Can you feel that tremor? That's the ground swell of a growing movement #wearrthemajority
