This is a disgrace. Brave RNLI volunteers being called scum for risking their lives to save others at sea is just plain wrong. So I've signed an open letter of thanks for the RNLI letting them know these thugs do not speak for the rest of us. Add your name?

Too often, outsourcing comes at the expense of our services and the workers who keep them going. If you want public services to work for people, not just profit, sign the Record of Support for Labour’s insourcing pledge. www.megaphone.org.uk/petitions/of...

Official Record of Support: Back the Biggest Wave of Insourcing in a Generation

Outsourcing companies frequently compete to win public contracts by reducing costs: it's a race to the bottom on the pay, terms, and conditions for their workers. This has a knock-on effect for servic...

I would like to thank @mrjamesob.bsky.social and @lbc.co.uk for fitting me in again. I apologise for the rather bleak analysis... but it is just honestly where I think we are. The escalation from "Area Denial" to "Access Denial" is a big shift in where the world economic security will sit.

I’ve just signed the petition to ban councils using bailiffs to collect debt. With council tax going up this month, we need to act now before millions of people have the bailiffs come knocking. Can you sign and share? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ba...

'Don't support your own leader, support the foreign leader who wishes you harm.' @mrjamesob.bsky.social reacts to the Daily Mail columnist who would 'take Donald Trump, warts and all, over our hopeless lawyer of a PM'.

Here we go again. Trump has told the UK that if we want a UK-US tech deal, we need to buy chlorinated chicken from the US! 🤢🐔 How dare he try and impose poor food standards in Britain. Sign the petition to keep chlorine-washed chicken off our shelves:
