🚨 CALL TO ACTION: Stand Against Genocide in Gaza 🚨 As the devastating situation in Gaza continues, it's crucial that we take concrete steps to pressure our leaders for #CeasefireNOW and stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people. Here are some ways to make a difference:

This May, there is a credible alternative to voting Reform and the mainstream parties. Affiliated with Your Party, ECI will be standing for residents and improving the lives for all who live in Enfield. @thisisyourparty @jeremycorbyn #VoteECI youtube.com/shorts/AFiDma-…

Billionaires say they can't afford to live in a Britain with a wealth tax. NHS workers, school teachers and retail and hospitality staff can't afford to live in a Britain without one.

A Channel 4 News report about the Palestinian toddler who looks to have been tortured by the IDF to extract a confession from his father. Sometimes I can barely believe what I’m typing.

Spain has closed its airspace to US planes involved in attacks on Iran. Meanwhile, the UK is letting US bombers land, refuel and re-arm. Complicity is always a choice — and our government has chosen to drag Britain into an illegal war.

@Maria4CEC4Cymru Solidarity Maria! Respectful debate and discussion should be the life blood of a democratic socialist movement, but here we are with members policing debate & discussion, setting purity tests & engaging in witch hunts. It’s ugly & if the party heads in this direction, I’m out.

Defending open debate and trust within the party isn't a betrayal of principles; it's essential to them. Selective screenshots and public attacks undermine the democratic culture we claim to fight for. No to weaponising private discussion. My response.

"Socialists shouldn't use capitalist courts." Except when they do. A short piece on principle, practice, and a contradiction that's hard to ignore. 👇 open.substack.com/pub/naj562/p/s…

The Guardian doesn’t suggest any political solutions to this 50 UK families have more wealth than half of the population The cost of living crisis isn’t just about ‘global shocks’ or even corporate profiteering It’s about 45 years of neoliberalism robbing us to serve the rich

Why do we have masked police officers?

The US bombed a primary school in Iran, killing 168 girls. Why is nobody talking about this anymore? These abominable war crimes should not be forgotten — and nor should the lives, hopes and dreams of human beings who were slaughtered with impunity.

BREAKING: Spain just blocked US war planes targeting Iran from flying over its territory. Airspace closed. Military bases denied. No participation. The entire country is now off-limits. Spain is refusing to be complicit. All other European/NATO countries need to follow suit.

Who's the war criminal, and who's the humanitarian now?

@EleanoraStats That’s odd. Why did you support his removal from the Labour Party then. And say “ Labour should be showing solidarity with the Jewish community.” Were you using an antisemitism smear against him for other reasons?

Story of how private equity turned UK care homes for vulnerable elderly people into cash machines. Govt privatised care service. PE hiked prices, councils forced to pay. PE loaded companies with debt, cut wages/staffing, asset-stripping, poor service theguardian.com/society/2026/m…

ft.com/content/2d2b1a… Ministers consider triggering the break clause in Palantir's NHS contract. They should. Palantir has no place in the NHS. @JustTreatment @labourlewis

A cruel penalty’: disabled people face lower benefit payments if conditions not deemed lifelong. A parliamentary revolt fought off previous govt attempt to cut disability benefits. Same needed again. Can't recall attempt to cut corporate welfare payments theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

The CEC is not a representative body. In Your Party, members don't act through representatives - we have a direct vote (OMOV). This difference is fundamental, and it's why this isn't “Labour 2.0”. Miss that - and everything else gets misunderstood. 👇 @naj562/note/p-192488850?r=zh4eu&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@naj562/note/p…

‘We all want to find the gal who did this’ I try to leave her alone but the blatant flip-flopping and whitewashing of their own previous politic positions is too much sometimes, especially when it’s getting a lot of traction:
