In answer to a question I get asked a lot. Yes I believe now is the time for a new party. I have been working alongside many grassroots groups for the past year to do so. For it to succeed however, it must be democratic and can’t be top down or based around any one personality.

Tax dodging billionaires and millionaires. There are a fair few in the UK. We need more than a wealth tax to deal with them. But in the meantime perhaps we could try to ensure that we do not allow them to use their unseemly wealth to try to influence and control left politics.

Rachel Reeves states her budget will ensure we don’t see a return to austerity. I appreciate MPs are paid much more than most of us and austerity is more of a theoretic concept than a reality for them, but when exactly when does she think austerity ended.

MPs really should research private healthcare providers before publicly promoting them. Cygnet should be forced to repay the public money it took whilst proving an inadequate service. Cygnet – a long track record of poor performance https://t.co/PwpPJA0zNs

LAST month I wrote about Cygnet, the US-owned private health firm that sells mental health beds to the NHS. An inquest jury had just ruled that a patient who collapsed at their Cygnet Kewstoke...

Imagine if we had MP’s who would fight for an NHS free of private companies instead of cosying up to them. Imagine if we had journalists who would expose the profiteers instead of attacking our NHS doctors. Another world is possible,those in power don’t want change. We have to.

Boycott the Washington Post. Jeff Bezos is crapping on a onetime legendary newspaper to the point where it is no longer non-partisan. You should read the Sunday, Oct 26 editorial (I believe that is the date) in which they offer a weak, thinly-veiled argument in support of the

“The dominant providers.” Cygnet’s parent company is Universal Health Services Inc a US private healthcare company. We the people of course are the ones paying for these companies profits. Imagine if instead of going to shareholders that profit was put back into the NHS.

RachelReevesMP initially told us she was unaware of her duties as a landlord. Bad enough, we have far too many rogue landlords. But now we know she lied as the letting agent had notified her of her duty to obtain a licence. This makes her position untenable.

A group of residents held a protest outside Harrow Council’s offices demanding more action to tackle the borough’s “housing crisis”. The group raised concerns about damp and mould in council properties, private rental costs and an alleged lack of enforcement action against “rogue

Peter Mandelson of course should be called to give evidence on what he witnessed when hanging out with his best mate Epstein. It is not credible he was unaware of the abuse, given its industrial scale. We must also surely have assurances he is no longer receives public funds.

“The verdict in Belfast is not the end of the Bloody Sunday story. “It is merely the latest chapter in a decades-long struggle between truth and concealment, between families seeking accountability and a state that denied it.” Read more in my piece for @tribunemagazine on

The Government says it will not take any action against Prince Andrew unless his brother King Charles asks them to. The Epstein scandal is a perfect example of how the rich and powerful protect each other and abuse the power they have. Ever punitive Laws for us, no law for them.
