More Blair-Starmer continuity — Burnham & Milburn team up against young people

Presumptive new PM Andy Burnham has given yet another signal of his intention to continue where Keir Starmer and his Blair tribute act leave off. Burnham is now working “hand-in-glove” with Starmer adviser and Blairite privatiser Alan Milburn on forcing people into work. Milburn blames young people The plan is, of course, dressed up as “opportunity and life chances” for young people. However, Milburn’s May 2026 interim report for Starmer makes clear that the aim is to force them into work for economic growth rather than their benefit. 60% of those targeted are not currently looking for work — and Milburn,…

More Brits want Count Binface to win than Farage

On 7 July, Nigel Farage resigned as the MP for Clacton. Seconds later, he announced he was running to become… the MP for Clacton. Hours later, the other political parties said they wouldn’t be running, and that Farage could have his fun running against Count Binface. Days later again, the public delivered their verdict: I just like the fact that 13% of the people polled can't decide. pic.twitter.com/ghxVShMUqh — Jonathan Pie (@JonathanPieNews) July 11, 2026 FFS Farage! If this all seems ridiculous, that’s because it is. There was no good reason for Farage to step down; our best guess as to…

NATO urged to ‘stop treating more nukes in more places as answer to everything’

The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) has been urged to “stop treating ‘more nukes in more places’ as the answer to everything” by anti-nuclear campaigners, as Western defence leaders meet at the NATO Summit in Türkiye. Defence industry top of the agenda NATO Summit 2026 is taking place in Ankara, Türkiye, on 7 and 8 July, with the formal purpose of reviewing “progress made since the 2025 Summit in The Hague”, and to “set out a roadmap to continue delivering on NATO’s key objectives”.

Farage exposed for having THREE more houses than registered

Once again, Nigel Farage is facing questions about his finances. As a person gets older, they begin to forget things. One thing they usually remember, however, is how many homes they have in their property portfolio (usually between one and zero). Farage, it seems, either forgot how many he had, or decided he didn’t need to declare them: Farage categorically denies any wrongdoing and says his property and financial interests are properly declared under Parliament’s rules Story: https://t.co/2MjsqLHt3L — Politics UK (@PolitlcsUK) July 1, 2026 Nigel ‘Five Homes’ Farage According to the Times report, Farage has found himself linked with five whole houses…

Starmer was even more dangerous for disabled people than the Tories

Starmer was even more dangerous for disabled people than the Tories

Well, that’s it, Starmer has finally shuffled off. From behind his sad beige podium, the sad beige prime minister announced he would be resigning. Speaking outside Downing Street, Starmer boasted about ending austerity and working to improve Britain for all. However, for disabled people, Starmer’s short reign was even more dangerous than the Tories. When Labour got in, it was a small glimmer of hope; surely they couldn’t be as cruel as the Tories? But Starmer heard that and went ‘hold my beer’. Starmer’s Labour far crueller than the Tories From the outset, Starmer’s government has been focused on change for…

Polanski calls out Burnham’s ‘more of the same’ migration plan

According to the Times, Andy Burnham is going to keep Shabana Mahmood as the home secretary if he becomes PM. Given that this would be the most ‘more of the same’ possible, it’s understandable Zack Polanski has said the following: The architect of Labour’s cruel plans on settled status and persecution of free speech and protest stays in place. More of the same. Only the Greens can take on failing Labour in Greater Manchester.https://t.co/AG52NPwyAS — Zack Polanski (@ZackPolanski) June 19, 2026 Polanski vs Burnham According to the Times: Burnham has not handed out any formal offers of future cabinet jobs and his…

Muslim NHS nurse leads campaign to get more women cycling

An NHS worker who learned to cycle in her 40s, is preparing to take on her first ever cycling commute. It’s part of a “Switch Your Journey” challenge encouraging women to swap car and train journeys for cycling in East London. Nelufa Aziz is leading the campaign. She’s a 45-year-old Community Nursery Nurse from Tower Hamlets who learned to cycle just two years ago. She joined women-only cycling lessons with Cycle Sisters, a charity supporting Muslim and ethnically diverse women to cycle, to become more active. But she’s since become a volunteer Ride Leader with the organisation, and now supports other…

Polanski calls out Labour plan for ‘more gambling, more addiction, more devastation’

Labour’s gambling minister has said she’d like to see the industry “grow.” This provoked criticism, because the gambling sector has profited by preying on those who are most vulnerable to addiction. Among said critics is Green Party leader, Zack Polanski: Labour’s plan for growth More gambling, more addiction, more devastation to household finances. Utter shambles. pic.twitter.com/tCoQek9TdF — Zack Polanski (@ZackPolanski) June 18, 2026 Growth Baroness Fiona Twycross made the comments in a Lords’ committee, where she said: It’s a regulated licensed sector we would like to see grow.

Burnham caught in yet another lie raising more concern that he is just another Starmer

Andy Burnham has won the Makerfield by-election, leaving many in the constituency and beyond breathing a sigh of relief that bigoted, abuse-justifying Reform UK didn’t take the seat. However, this does not mean we are out of woods when it comes to politicians who lie, manipulate, and exploit British people to inflate their own egos and amass power. The latest lie to add to the pile was made during his acceptance speech, when he said: I always knew one day I would seek to go back to Westminster to complete that unfinished business. As an aspiring law student, I attended Burnham’s…

The more scrutiny Andy Burnham faces, the less popular he gets

The Makerfield by-election has got people around the country talking about Andy Burnham again. And a new poll has shown that, with increasing scrutiny, he’s become a lot less popular. We reckon that’s because he represents the same kind of fence-sitting, corporate politics that gave the UK Keir Starmer. Unsurprising popularity dive Voters tend to view most politicians unfavourably, overall. But Andy Burnham was a rare case before the by-election campaign. Because there were actually more people who viewed him favourably. That has quickly changed in recent weeks, though, with YouGov reporting that his: favourability has declined markedly over the past…

PM hopeful Al Carns threatens more austerity to enrich arms companies

According to former ministers like Al Carns, the UK is facing the imminent threat of war. In a sense, this is always true, because the UK and the US regularly initiate conflict. And while we could simply stop committing ourselves to these illegal wars of aggression, Labour MPs like Carns and Lisa Nandy are instead proposing a fresh round of austerity: Nandy: "We've got to significantly increase the amount we're spending on defence" Over the last several days I haven't seen a single interviewer question this claim. Instead the challenge to politicians making it is, are you increasing it fast enough/by…

Ealing could’ve had 14 more left-wing wins with Indy-Green collaboration

The Green Party did well in the 2026 local elections, especially in London. In Ealing, for example, it got five new councillors. But if it had worked together with local left-wing independents, the borough could have gained at least 14 extra progressive councillors, pulling significant power away from Labour. Instead, Labour kept control. Indy-Green collaboration could make a massive difference in Ealing In the local elections, the Green Party focused on the less diverse and more expensive Hanwell Broadway ward. All three of its candidates defeated Labour there. Ealing Community Independents (ECI) candidates, meanwhile, stood in poorer and more diverse wards,…

More animal welfare charities call for an end to the guga hunt

Two leading animal welfare organisations are calling on the new Scottish parliament to end the annual guga hunt on Sula Sgeir. They’ve published a new report stating that the hunt cannot be considered humane, despite a NatureScot licence condition that requires killing must be carried out humanely. This adds to the campaigning work of Protect the Wild, whose founder Rob Pownall ran for the Scottish parliament dressed as a gannet. Animal Welfare and the Guga Hunt comes out as NatureScot considers a fresh licence application for the 2026 hunt. The topic is also due to for consideration by the Scottish parliament…

Nearly five million more people experiencing poor mental health since 2009

The Mental Health Foundation has released The Foundation Reports: The state of mental health inequality in the UK, based on data following 40,000 individuals over 15 years. The report found higher levels of poor mental health than recently reported in other datasets. One in four adults in the UK (25%) now experiences mental distress. That’s 14 million people. This has risen from 17% since the period immediately following the 2008 financial crisis. And that means an additional 4.8 million people now experience poor mental health just 16 years later. The evaluation of the Understanding Society dataset involved examining data gathered from…

On 7 June, Israel’s occupation naval forces intentionally targeted and killed Gaza fisherman Mohammad Mousa Abu Jiyab. Mohammed Atef Al-Aqra, who was in the same vessel, was seriously injured. They were fishing off the coast of Deir al Balah, in central Gaza. Israel intentionally targets Gaza’s fishermen Off the coast of Gaza City, in a separate incident on the same day, four fishermen were forced to jump into the sea from their boat. They were then arrested by Israel and taken to an unknown location. There have been many incidents of fishermen being intentionally targeted in Gaza, if not by shooting,…

“Ethics more important”: Polish football club rejects Maccabi Tel Aviv transfer offer

The owner of Polish football club Pogoń Szczecin has refused to discuss the sale of players to Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv. Alex Haditaghi went further, comparing the idea of doing business with the club to trading with nazi Germany. In a post on X, Haditaghi said he had told the Israeli club he would not be talking to them about potential transfers for defenders Dmitri Keramitsis and Leo Borges. He said that football should represent “hope, respect, unity and humanity” and that: money, business, and opportunity must come second to conscience. Haditaghi made clear that he was referring to Israel’s…

More claimants join test case against Elon Musk’s AI over demeaning sexualised content

Labour MP Jess Asato has announced that she has initiated a legal test case against Elon Musk’s xAI. The case will take to task Grok AI’s creation of fake, pornographic and derogatory content seen in January. Attracting particular condemnation is the fact that the AI tool produced a demeaning, offensive and frankly, dangerous video which showed the MP: being chloroformed and prepared for sexual assault. Grok AI and its prolific creation of sexualised content, including of young children, has prompted widespread anger as it became clear the business model was happy to make money out of the most abusive and sinister views…

Nearly half of parents are struggling to afford food for their children more now than five years ago

New research warns that family hardship has deepened despite years of post-pandemic support measures, worsening child food hunger. The survey of 2,500 UK parents, which Opinium carried out for the Social Market Foundation, found that nearly half (44%) were struggling more today to afford food than five years ago. In addition, 1 in 5 (21%) parents reported their children regularly experiencing some form of food insecurity. This included being unable to access balanced meals, or relying heavily on cheap foods. The Social Market Foundation report comes at a time when the cost of living remains among the top issues for the…

Streeting does Blair’s bidding with call for more drilling

On 26 May, the wax-faced war criminal Tony Blair returned with a half-baked essay on what the UK should do next. Among his widely-panned arguments was the suggestion that we need to increase North Sea drilling. And now, like clockwork, the Blairite homunculus Wes Streeting has stepped forwards to make roughly the same argument: Labour should cut national insurance and issue new oil drilling licences for North Sea, Streeting says https://t.co/yWsOYDXf0n — LBC (@LBC) May 31, 2026 New Streeting, New Danger In his essay, Blair wrote: 3.

Real Estate Investors Don’t Need More Tools They Need Better Systems

The Investors Who Win in 2026 Are Not Using More Software, Tthey are using better systems. For years, real estate investors believed growth came from adding more software. One platform handled direct mail. Another managed lead tracking. Another controlled follow-up. Another organised acquisition. Another handled communication. Every new software platform promised to save time and improve efficiency. However, for many investor businesses, the opposite happened. Processes slowed down, communication became fragmented, and acquisitions teams whose primary responsibility was talking to motivated sellers spent most of their time managing software instead of closing deals. What looked like growth externally eventually turned into…
