Understanding Market Socialism 101... My experience is that anti-socialists are stuck in the 1970s: arguing against rationing bread & nationalisation. None of this is proposed, but the caricature is far easier than engaging with contemporary debates over ownership.

𝗣𝗼𝘀𝘁-𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗡𝗲𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗺 @reformparty_uk is what happens when right-wing economics fails the market test under @UKLabour and the @Conservatives. It gets rebranded. Same product. New label. Harder edge. Political economy as a marketing strategy...

Democratic socialism = "I can't define social democracy" State socialism = "I want to avoid how capitalism and interventionism go hand in hand" Utopian socialism = "I like homemade bread" Anti-socialism = "This is all the same thing and it's 1984"

Starmer meets the wreckage of international law with Wormtongue's whisper and Chamberlain's sleep...

"Stop the Boats. Arrest the grannies. Ignore international law". One nation, one story, one way to belong - the UK right's flat earth. But society isn't flat - it's fractured. Solidarity is how those fractures become power. #SocialistSunday

In the coming hours and days there will be a lot of disinformation and misinformation regarding Venezuela. We recommend the following for accurate news and analysis: @venanalysis @OrinocoTribune @KawsachunNews @sov_media

This is the political economy of decline in its rawest form: a waning hegemon lashing out because it can no longer rule through economic gravity alone. When accumulation stalls and legitimacy evaporates, violence becomes the last instrument of authority.

Calling basic left political economy 'left populism' only makes sense after a long march to the right. When proposals to tackle inequality, raise wages and broaden ownership are recast as extremism, 'balance' becomes a way of avoiding the economics altogether.

In 2026, let's build a socialist alternative to privatisation, inequality & war. @jeremycorbyn on the year ahead for Your Party ✊

Once the nostalgia and hysteria are removed, the issue is mundane: do British markets function better when ownership is widened beyond incumbents and inheritance, or not? The economics points firmly to extension - which is precisely the rational core of socialism.

Cue the outrage about expropriation. Again, none. This is about property rights, not seizures. Workers gain legally defined rights to organise, access finance, and buy in under reformed rules of transfer. Nothing here resembles confiscation, despite the theatrics.

Hence the ritual panic about central planning. There are no planners setting prices and no civil servants running firms from Whitehall. Markets still coordinate; the awkward question is who in Britain actually gets access to capital beyond incumbents, inheritance and the City.

Instead of engaging with policy, they whine about people on X. The real empirical question is how far hate is rooted in authoritarian personality traits on the right, relative to the libertarian left - and how this shifts with the Labour leadership's assault on basic rights.

A reminder...

@BuckCllr @ProudSocialist Opposition to socialism often appears less ideological than epistemic: a position grounded in ignorance rather than argument...

Israel has killed six Palestinians sheltering in a school, including a baby. The slaughter continues. The focus of Britain's police, media & political class? How to further attack the right to protest for Palestine. We will not be cowed.

From the Congo to Sudan to Palestine, Your Party will stand with the oppressed. That means it must be explicitly anti–Zionist. There must be a day of reckoning for those who have enabled genocide. We cannot rest until Keir Starmer and David Lammy are in the docks of The Hague.

Don’t just abolish Prince Andrew’s titles, abolish the monarchy.
