Dark money groups are paying influencers to spread attacks about our campaign.

Voters deserve to know who is trying to manipulate our election.

New report says cash-strapped NHS trusts could be forced to axe thousands of jobs - Socialist Worker Thousands of health workers in England could lose their jobs as scores of NHS trusts sink under a combined deficit of more than three-quarters of a billion pounds.

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.

28 March is going to be massive. To make sure the day stays safe, joyful and powerful, we need stewards to support and coordinate the flow of the march.

Rising water bills see pensioners in poverty skip baths Water bills will go up again on April 1. Pensioners like Judith are already feeling the pinch, rationing showers and laundry loads.

Pensioners in poverty skip baths as water bills rise.

Full state pension (received by 35% of pensioners) is less than 50% of minimum wage.

2m UK pensioners live in poverty.

In 2024-25, 88,000 pensioners died in poverty.

Govts don't curb profiteering.

Poverty is a political choice.

Ella’s Law has been published πŸ‘

No child should have the growth of their lungs stunted because of dirty air where they live and play, yet this is the reality of air pollution in England. Ella’s Law would change this.

My thanks to Rosamund and all the hard-working campaigners demanding change.

β€˜Treat us fairly’: skilled workers face having their dream of settling in UK snatched away As government mulls doubling requirement to 10 years, the uncertainty is putting many who came to Britain to work under strain

An economically, politically and morally bankrupt strategy.

Bad for individuals, bad for families, bad for businesses, bad for public services, bad for integration and cohesion.

Have you been watching Dirty Business on Channel 4? Sensational stuff. I hope there will be repercussions and serious action taken, including the abolitioon of the Environment Agency and its replacement by a fully-funded department including scientists and investigators with real legal powers.
