“Of all the things that can happen to a man, the most surprising is to discover he is old.” - Leon Trotsky
It wasn’t a mistake, it was deliberate.

Socialism isn’t about subsidies. It’s about the working class taking control of the means of production.

Not sure if the Irish will appreciate the English telling them what they “must” do.

Already reversed thanks to the reaction. Protests work.

The Express is only pissed off because deep down they know white men can’t dance.

I’m all for independence, but no political rallying cry should contain the word ‘normal’.

Strangely enough, I believe him. He’s not the sharpest knife in the box, to put it gently.

During its recent conference, Unite voted massively in favour of looking at alternative recipients of funding which is basically a precursor motion to Disaffiliation, which is almost certainly set to happen.

If Labour is no longer the party of trade unions, then it needs a new party that puts the trade unions at its centre from its very beginning.

At the last Unite conference the motion to review political alignment passed with a massive majority, and as Sharon Graham said, a vote for disaffiliation would pass right now.

I know that. It’s because they’re not affiliated to Labour that I believe they’ll be the first.
The reason the Labour Party has affiliated unions is because it was set up to be a voice for them in Parliament. The main aim of Your Party is to be that voice now that Labour no longer represents workers
