A lot of very rich people are still wrongly assuming that they will be fully insulated from the deep social dysfunction, economic collapse, and rising authoritarianism being ushered in by Trump. They won’t—but it currently looks like they’re willing to find that out the hard way.

It really is that simple. We want Proportional Representation because we believe that, in a democracy, nobody's vote should be more or less important than anyone else's. Makes sense, doesn't it?

"Some random country that hasn't fought a war in 40 years..." Over 500 dead British and French personnel (more than 1,000 total European fatalities) and c10,000 injured in Afghanistan 2001-2021. The only time Article 5 has been invoked. 'Disrespect' does not reside in lack of a suit, Mr Vance. ~AA

By suspending all military aid to Ukraine, Donald Trump has humiliated the people who pretended he was a reliable ally only in search of peace. The UK and Europe must seize frozen Russian assets to resist Putin’s unjust and savage war.

If there's an issue where they see British voters are unified, they'll generally seize on it, despite their daily and appalling rightwing nonsense. This is the Mail sniffing which way the wind is blowing in the UK.

So, Daily Mail, if we should now stop the bully Trump from having a state visit, what other policies and ideologies should we now reject in light of Trump being Putin’s useful idiot?

Every single one of the Trump supporters sounds like a domestic abuser. "You should've let him hit you, you shouldn't have complained in public, you're never grateful, you never say thank you."

The central fact about Zelenskyy is this: He is very good at killing fascists. That is why Trump and Vance despise him. They recognise the ideological enemy when they see him iandunt.substack.com/p/some-dispa...

We should have a Royal State Visit for Zelenskyy instead, on a grander scale than anything the Queen put on from Trump last time round.

Trump cannot be given a state visit to the UK. It should never have been offered. The invitation must now be withdrawn. You might as well hand it to Putin.

Look, obviously my emotional reaction to that press conference is to punch a wall so hard either it or my knuckles break. But let put that on hold for a moment and ask, very dispassionately and calmly: What American national interest objective or foreign policy goal was served by that shit-show?

The immigration figures for 2024 have just been released by the Home Office. There's been an 81% drop in the number of Health and Care Worker visas granted compared to 2023. And overall 37% fewer work visas granted. The current visa system clearly does not work for the UK.

Germany's elections saw a massive boost for the far right and an unexpected revival for the progressive left. The inequality that led Germany here is similar to our own, so what can we learn about the future of our own inequality crisis? equalitytrust.org.uk/news/blog/fi...
