The underlying structural problems of UK politics that the country doesn't have the resources to do everything expected of it and a Westminster class in denial about this doesn't go away in the event of a new PM.
Individual action is vital, but systemic change requires a coalition. Today, I join people, NGOs and organisations around the world to deliver a direct message to world leaders: stop the tunnel vision and #SeeTheBigPicture.

Civility in public life.
And that ‘immigration’ is plummeting
Just saying
Thank you.
He remains a welcome contrast to BJ and other predecessors.
Who could possibly replace him on the international stage right now?
The manufactured outrage of opposition is disingenuous and distasteful.
Issues with relationships - not for the first time.
History will ask: why did no one send armies to liberate Palestine?
It's complicated isn't an answer.
Labour MPs need to realise this isn’t about getting rid of Starmer it’s about destabilising the Labour govt and getting rid of all of you .. for Nigel and his mates ! The media have been on overdrive on this since July 24 .. it’s the latest attempt but not the last !
And all of them have faced hostility.
What else would you like to see cleaned up in UK politics?
“Low skilled”? A 30,000 data point care plan.
There is a 9% vacancy rate in social care, an average 12% of posts are filled by international recruits, but in some care providers that figure is 100%.

Six bombshells from sacked official’s appearance before MPs - The Times and The Sunday Times
Is any of this a surprise to anyone?
Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
Back to the simple natural order of things…….. not human arrogance based on destruction of our water,air, environment for profit…… for the 1%

Big oil profiting off war while the rest of us count pennies. How is this ok?
