Maybe, just maybe, if the two main UK unionist parties hadn't wrapped themselves in Union Jacks and aped the fascist snake oil salesman for the last couple of decades, this appalling state wouldn't have arisen...

Our planet is on fire, and workers are being hit hard by the cost of living, but the super-rich couldn't care less.

BP pocketed £1.7 billion in profit, whilst our energy bills are rising and climate chaos intensifies.

It's time for climate action, it's time to tax the rich!

Poor people were sold a lie in order to vote Brexit. Cheaper food, stronger economy… The reason so many are struggling is a result of it. So the people who sold the lie have moved onto telling them that migrants are to blame for their woes. All the time being aided and abetted by Russia.

Plaid Cymru today held a debate on coal tip safety.

Not a single Reform MP bothered to turn up.

As they head to the polls tomorrow, voters in Caerphilly should remember how little Reform care about Welsh postindustrial communities.
As we remember Aberfan, we are reminded that Wales’ coalmining communities still live in fear of another disaster.

While Reform are calling for the reopening of Wales’ coalmines, they couldn’t even be bothered to show up for this debate on the safety of our coalmining communities.

Glasgow has a proud record of giving sanctuary to those who need it. That's what the asylum system is for.

To support UK government decisions which deliberately make asylum seekers homeless, and call compassion "grandstanding", is sickening.

Labour should be ashamed, but of course they won't be.
