  1. “Keir Starmer's Resignation and The Real 'Moral Bankruptcy' That Brought Him Down”

    by Adam Bienkov in The Byline Times on Substack

    “As the sixth British Prime Minister to have stood down in the last ten years, Starmer may never feature as a major part of our political history.

    Yet if Downing Street does end up falling into the hands of Nigel Farage and his fellow travellers on the far-right, then the truth is that Starmer and his own moral failures will have played a significant role in that fall”

  2. “Rich right-wingers are calling for DWP [Department for Work and Pensions] cuts in order to pay for defence”

    “Right-wing warhawks have been doubling down on calls to slash Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) welfare to fund imperialistic warmongering against Iran.

    Naturally, it’s the usual suspects spearheading the charge, namely opaquely-funded think tanks, the billionaire press, and of course, their co-conspirators in parliament.

    And once again, these rich colonial capitalist assholes all want to make poor and disabled people cannon fodder for their illegal invasions.”

  3. Labour sticks with Tories £1.3bn benefits #cuts branded shameless

    #Labour expected to retain changes to “work capability assessment” that were introduced last year by #Tories with critics saying they “should be utterly ashamed of themselves”

    #Disability rights activists called on Kendall to reverse changes, as they pose severe risks to vulnerable people with mental and physical conditions

  4. ‘Doesn’t feel fair’: young Britons struggle with losing right to work in EU since #Brexit

    Since the #UK left the #EU, people with only a British passport typically need a work permit to work in the rest of Europe, making hiring them more difficult for an EU employer. “That was my plan, and now it’s been significantly scuppered,” Kinsey said

  5. In June, Anas Sarwar dismissed #SNP warnings about potential tax rises and cuts in public spending as “ludicrous”.

    It's not even August. - plenty more pain to come. 🙁

    "Change Begins" - Aye, right.

  6. This is Kirsty McNeill's maiden speech as Labour MP for Midlothian where she makes her "solemn commitment" to the children of Midlothian that she will be their "champion".

    "We are all of us products of investments made in us as children" - how true Kirsty.

    She voted to keep the two-child benefit cap.

    I worked in Education in Midlothian for many years and saw first-hand the child poverty that exists there.
