My piece for The Guardian about why I am far more concerned about Reform's aversion to scrutiny than I am about them calling me a c***.

So another round of 'talks' in Florida. Ukraine not bending, despite Trump-Vance pressure. Russia insisting on all or nothing. POTUS giving Putin even more time to bomb and kill Ukrainians. What a pathetic, bloody farce! The Hague awaits not only Putin, but also his accomplices.

A RESPONSE TO DAVID LAMMY
The solution to the crisis in our justice system is not solved by restricting the right to trial by jury, but by a properly funded justice system. Read my full response to the proposals to restrict trial by jury below.

WE NEED A WEALTH TAX NOW.
Inequality is a danger to democracy and the rule of law, because, aside from being immoral, it breeds extremes of poverty and fosters political, social and economic instability.
