Petition: Take our trains into public ownership | We Own It

A narrative is recited almost everywhere: that Rachel Reeves is being "forced" to cut benefits, and is faced with "hard choices" or "no choice". This story, a staple of neoliberal doctrine, is completely false, as @richardjmurphy.bsky.social explains: www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/03...
Is Rachel Reeves constrained by the City?
Is the City really stopping Rachel Reeves from doing what Labour wants, or is she just using it as a convenient excuse for her neoliberal austerity?

How is it possible that the wealth of the super-rich has exploded, but we're facing billions in austerity cuts? How have banks, energy companies, and oil and gas made record profits while foodbank use has reached 3.1 million? We need to tax the rich.

Liz Kendall says young people will be pushed to join the army to cut youth unemployment. Then when they get injured or wounded Kendall will deny them sickness and disability benefits.

In case you’re not sure why the NHS isn’t working any more, it’s because the service is being slowly dismantled by politicians who are turning it into a cash cow for private companies, starving it of resource so it doesn’t work properly, and enabling the private sector to expand rapidly 🚨

If “socialism never works” then why does the USA and the capitalists spend billions to stop Marxism, and assassinate leaders, install puppet dictarships for the rich and then spend more billions every decade to push capitalist propaganda to say “socialism doesn’t work”?

Private finance was a disaster under Blair. New PFI contracts were actually banned by the Conservatives in 2018.

Except for the £600bn a year profit for him and his mates.
