When Andy Burnham unveiled his plan to run in the Makerfield by-election, the establishment media claimed he would renationalise utilities. Because we actually listened to what he was saying, we knew this wasn’t the case, and we pointed it out. Burnham himself disagreed with our assessment that he had no plan to end the privatisation nightmare. Now, Burnham has made it clear; his Labour government will not offer anything besides half measures: Andy Burnham confirming he won't take our key infrastructure back into public ownership. pic.twitter.com/LjibtBuEdL — Saul Staniforth (@SaulStaniforth) June 29, 2026 Burnham sets out victory for the fat cats…

Meme coin Tommy Robinson promoted loses 96% of its value

On 29 June, Tommy Robinson ‘pumped’ a meme coin on behalf of his son. In the aftermath, the coin’s holders began selling off what they had – i.e. ‘dumping’ it. In other words, it looks a lot like your textbook ‘pump and dump’ scheme: Update: The meme coin Tommy Robinson's promoted has now fallen roughly 96%. The coin has experienced several smaller spikes followed by rapid sell-offs. https://t.co/ICuyZsAqMB pic.twitter.com/cHnZRfnxE7 — Gadget (@Gadget440) June 30, 2026 To those in the know, Robinson’s post gave off ‘pump and dump’ vibes.

Jubilant Morocco hold their nerve to reach World Cup last 16

Morocco’s World Cup story keeps bending in unexpected directions, and in beautiful Monterey it took another sharp turn. Mohamed Ouahbi’s side, organised, stubborn and unshakably calm, edged past the Netherlands on penalties after a 1-1 draw to book a last‑16 meeting with Canada. It was a night where Morocco’s rhythm, passing ability, and speedy attacks got them the win in the end. The Dutch, for all their attacking talent, turned up to attempt a defensive masterclass which failed. The Netherlands had arrived with momentum and expectation. Morocco arrived with big ambitions, but they left with more. World Cup: Netherlands and Morocco…

Polluters must pay for European heatwave costs

Fossil fuel companies must be held responsible for the extreme heatwave gripping Europe. Campaigners from 350.org say they should pay permanent windfall taxes to help cover the mounting health costs. A new study by World Weather Attribution found that climate change is “unequivocally” the driving force behind Europe’s record-breaking heatwave. The study found that: Heatwave temperatures would have been “virtually impossible” to occur at this time just 50 years ago. Overnight temperatures are about 100x more likely today. Almost half of more than 800 cities across 30 European countries have broken, or are likely to break, heat stress levels. UN climate…

Unite nominations close sees Simon Dubbins win ‘core Graham’ sectors

Unite leadership challenger Simon Dubbins – the only candidate to consistently oppose Israel’s genocide, UK warmongering, and the union’s withdrawal as a political force – has secured more than enough branch nominations to stand against incumbent Sharon Graham. Not just enough nominations, but nominations in many of the sectors Graham’s supporters would have considered her core support. Graham has outraged Unite members and activists with her support for the arms industry and her opposition to anti-genocide protests. Unite’s war on its workforce, apparently to protect Graham’s husband Jack Clarke, has also disgusted many. Clarke was promoted – outside the union’s usual…

The Canary has been debanked by Lloyds. Despite banking with them for almost a decade they are currently withholding a substantial amount of our money. We are left with barely any funds. Lloyds has not explained why it has taken this action. Despite multiple communications from us, the bank has not been forthcoming with its reasoning. The Canary is now in a financially precarious situation. We do not know when our money that Lloyds is holding will be returned. Moreover, we do not know how it will affect our ability to get another bank account in the future. Lloyds give no…

Cosmetic dentistry has evolved significantly over the past decade. Treatments that were once associated primarily with celebrities have become increasingly accessible to people looking to improve the appearance and function of their teeth. Among the most frequently discussed options are veneers and smile makeovers. Although these terms are often used interchangeably, they are not the same thing. Understanding the difference between a smile makeover and veneers can help patients make more informed decisions about their treatment options and set realistic expectations for the final result. What Are Dental Veneers? Dental veneers are thin shells, typically made from porcelain or ceramic materials,…

Israel spent £50,000 lobbying Reform

Reform UK’s deputy leader said last week that a parliamentary debate into Israeli influence on British politics was “antisemitic in its very motivation and at its core”. “As such, we should utterly reject it,” argued Richard Tice to a room full of MPs. What he did not tell them, however, was that he had been on a trip to “the Gaza front line” last September funded by the newly-created Reform Friends of Israel, where he concluded that the Gaza famine was a “blatant lie”. And that trip is not the only example of pro-Israel pressure groups working with Reform. Just a…

Lebanon government signs agreement with Israel in the blood of its own citizens

On Friday, 27 June, in a room at the US State Department, Lebanon’s ambassador to Washington — with zero diplomatic credentials prior to this post — signed her name to a “framework agreement” with Israel. US secretary of state Marco Rubio beamed that it was “the beginning of the beginning.” As usual, in spite of American imperial pomp the ‘agreement’ is not what it appears, as Al Jazeera reported: he agreement does not force Israel to withdraw from the large area of southern Lebanon that it continues to occupy, and Israel also appears to be signalling that it will continue its…

Any illusions of Labour Party “change” under Andy Burnham were dispelled last week when he appointed lobbyist, Blairite minister, ex-Labour Friends of Israel chair, and Peter Mandelson’s “boy” James Purnell as his chief of staff. The line from Team Burnham is that Purnell has cut all ties with Flint Global, the lobbying firm he led and held shares in until last week. But it seems that the firm has a history when it comes to conflicts of interest. Flint Global Flint Global’s current Defence Advisory Practice lead, James Clark, was previously outed as being a co-founder of the All Party Parliamentary…

Cowardly FAI choose Serbia as venue to hide Ireland-Israel match shame

The disgraced Football Association of Ireland (FAI) has selected Serbia as the location for playing the ‘home’ fixture of Ireland’s Nations League double-header against apartheid ‘Israel’. The football governing body said in a statement released on Monday June 29 that the match will be played “in Bačka Topola, Serbia.” This is a small town in the north of the country, with a population of just 11,930. The FAI are clearly intent on hiding the fixture away to the maximum extent possible. The first match is scheduled to take place in Hungary on September 27. The cowards continued: This follows a decision…

On Monday 29 June, Andy Burnham finally gave us a fleshed out idea of what he has planned for the country. The answer – essentially – was more of the same. And while he is proposing a few actual changes, they won’t scratch the surface of the massive problems facing us. One person to recognise this was Zack Polanski, who said the following: The can doesn't need to kicked down the road, again. People have had enough of tinkering around the edges. Bold changes now. We are in crisis. Rent controls, wealth taxes, public ownership of what is ours. Real change.…

Portuguese manager José Mourinho has admitted that he did not follow the 2026 World Cup with the same enthusiasm he had shown in previous editions, stating that a number of first-round matches failed to live up to the standards of the world’s biggest football tournament, due to the significant disparities between some of the participating teams. The Portuguese manager made these comments whilst appearing as a guest on the Beast Mode On podcast, hosted by former English striker Adebayo Akinfenwa, where he spoke candidly about his impressions of the tournament, noting that many matches lacked the competitiveness and excitement expected.

A campaign group which wants to block gender affirming care for trans people is coming to London for a conference as it continues towards its aim of: structural violence against, and erasure of the trans community. Presenting themselves as a “respectable organisation”, the Clinical Advisory Network on Sex and Gender (CAN-SG) is a group of medical clinicians who campaign against gender affirming care and allegedly aim to improve holistic support for trans people instead. However, activists from Trans Kids Deserve Better (TKDB) have raised serious concerns, arguing that the group is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. They say it presents itself…

International Criminal Court (ICC) chief prosecutor Karim Khan has said that Israel threatened his wife and children if he persisted in pursuing warrants for its genocidal leaders. Speaking to AlArabiya English, Khan also said that a 5,000-page report by the UN’s Office of Internal Oversight Services had cleared him of all wrongdoing. Moreover, the ICC’s ‘Bureau’ – the ICC’s main oversight body – appointed three judges to digest the report. The judges confirmed on 21 March 2026 that there was not a single piece of evidence suggesting any misconduct by Khan. Despite the comprehensive findings, Khan has again been suspended by…

According to The Quint, despite Modi’s BJP right-wing government being mired in scandal after scandal and emerging unscathed, the latest crisis, the Ram Mandir donation theft, may be the biggest test for Hindutva yet. According to Al Jazeera, for the past month, the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh (UP), has been mired in allegations that its trustees have embezzled potentially millions of dollars in donations from devotees, diverting funds meant for the shrine into their own pockets. Echoing The Quint, Al Jazeera says the scandal could unravel the BJP’s carefully constructed image as the guardian of the Hindu faith and…
