Far-right figures exploit Henry Nowak’s murder to push a racist ‘two-tier policing’ myth. Evidence shows policing is harsher on Black communities, while crime patterns track poverty and geography, not race – and knife killings are actually falling.

ff I left school at 16. As a mature student I got an
engineering degree at Northumbria University. As North of Tyne Mayor I created thousands of real living wage jobs and built affordable homes. In my 5 years as Mayor I claimed £O expenses.
Councillors should be shop stewards for the community in the council, not cheerleaders for the council in the community. I've been an anti-racist campaigner since the late 1980's. I'm pro-trans and LGBTQ+ rights and a White Ribbon ambassador, the campaign for men to speak out against violence against women and girls.

It's time to get bold about buses. That means more than bus franchising, it means treating public transport as critical infrastructure. It would boost our economy, reduce social isolation, and benefit the planet. My article in @thecanaryuk.bsky.social

Despite its muttering to the contrary, Labour is constantly increasing the role of the private sector in the NHS, and eroding our public NHS services. Perhaps this might help explain why that is happening. Find out more here:

A graph showing that Labour MPs received nearly £2,500,000 from private healthcare between January 2023 and Sept 2025  - almost 5 times as much as all other MPs combined.

Heat pumps are the most efficient heating technology ever invented. They harvest and compress pre existing heat in the air, ground or water and transport it where it is needed. That energy is all around us. And it does not have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
