If you're with British Gas, you need to read this right now
Thousands of British Gas staff are waking up today without a job simply for refusing to sign away their rights. The company told workers to accept new contracts or face unemployment. Despite months of negotiations, British Gas is firing them anyway. If you’re a customer, you can actually make a stand with these workers that matters. You can switch suppliers today and cite their hostile working… → Read More
Three ways we know centrism is a cult
Centrists love to throw the word ‘cult’ at anyone led by values. But this narcissistic tribe are masters of projection. Because centrism is a cult that worships power at all costs, and there’s no person or principle they wouldn’t sacrifice in their pursuit of that. And when reality is inconvenient they simply rewrite it. So here are the indisputable facts that prove centrism is a cult. Every… → Read More
You don't shut down fascism with a conga line
The hostile reaction to the Bristol protest shows how unprepared English people are for what’s coming. You don’t shut down a fascist uprising with a conga line. And no, the suffragettes didn’t win the vote with a tap dance. Every struggle against oppression requires a fight, because oppressors will injure, imprison and kill you to advance their interests. The UK government is attempting to make… → Read More

The witch hunt has come for Ken Loach. They'll have to come through us first.
First, the media and political opportunists tried to convince us life-long anti-racist Jeremy Corbyn was Hitler-in-waiting. Now, life-long anti-racist Ken Loach is being attacked by the same witch hunt. But after several years of the fraudulent weaponisation of antisemitism to achieve political objectives, the left is done. You come for one of us, you come for all of us. And that includes Ken.… → Read More
How to fight the witch hunt, and win
Anyone still arguing the antisemitism smear campaign is anything but a witch hunt is a liar, an idiot, or both. It is a cynical attempt to shutdown the anti-apartheid struggle of the Palestinian people and their allies. It is a horrific abuse of Jewish trauma and identity. And for a campaign claiming to act on behalf of Jewish people everywhere, it saves some of its cruellest abuse for… → Read More
Dear liberals, stop asking us to make nice with Trump's defeated army
Before the Biden win had even been declared, liberals were calling on us to make nice with the Nazis who just lost. We are being called upon to ‘reach out’ and ‘find compromise’ with people who see us as sub-human. They have been harassing, falsely imprisoning, under-paying, and killing us. And treating that like some trivial difference we need to get over is, frankly, fucking offensive. It also… → Read More

My favourite teacher just died
By the end of my twelfth year on this planet, I had been groomed, raped, beaten in my own home, and subjected to over a decade of narcissistic abuse. On top of that, I was living with undiagnosed autism. I developed a mask to survive it all, and most people never saw past it. But Mr Smith was one of three teachers at my school who did. He made me feel seen and accepted in a way I rarely… → Read More
The 49 seconds of truth every white person needs to hear right now
Black Lives Matter. This is not a message for Black people. We know our lives matter, and we know the lives of non-Black people matter. But for a very long time, up to and including today, many white people cannot say the same. African American drag queen Shea Couleé took just 49 seconds to explain what every white ally needs to do right now. Do the work > Sign up to our FREE Daily News… → Read More
Coronavirus has exposed how years of infantilisation have left England a nation of children
The highest coronavirus (Covid-19) death toll per capita in the world so far, together with one of the highest infection rates, but England is abandoning lockdown. And without the necessary safeguards in place for any rational adult to even consider it if they have the option. Nevertheless, a significant number of English people are carrying on regardless as a second, more devastating wave looks… → Read More

How coronavirus might save more lives than it takes
For decades, our society has been deteriorating. And our tolerance for the discomfort and death of our fellow human beings has seemed virtually boundless. But with the appearance of a virus that made the world stop, we started to notice each other again. We started to count those suffering and dying like it mattered. We are in a surreal and terrifying moment. But if we harness the compassion and… → Read More
Five rich people who are not handling the coronavirus crisis well... at all
One might think that a full bank account, secure mansions, and private islands might keep the rich sane through the coronavirus (Covid-19) crisis. But unfortunately, we’re seeing meltdowns from the most pampered among us. Here are just five examples of rich people entirely failing to adult through the pandemic. 1. Material girl Oh, Madonna. Holding forth on the coronavirus making us all equals,… → Read More
The British public is mercilessly dragging Boris Johnson for hiding in a fridge
Boris Johnson might have been hoping his “get Brexit done” campaign would remind voters of Churchill. But given Churchill faced down Hitler, we’re pretty sure he wouldn’t have hidden in a fridge rather than face down some journalists. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what Johnson has done the day before the vote. And the British public are unlikely to let him forget it. The incident Johnson was… → Read More
Brexit party official caught on camera bragging about burying a pig’s head under a mosque
A Brexit Party official in a battleground seat has been recorded bragging about burying a pig’s head under a mosque. Undercover filming by Channel 4 News captured the racist rant just days after Nigel Farage told voters his party was no home for people with “extreme views”. Racism in the extreme Hartlepool is a key target for the Brexit Party, with party chair Richard Tice fighting to win the… → Read More
The Telegraph journalist who came after Jack and his family needs to be fired
A four-year-old boy with suspected pneumonia was forced to sleep on the floor of an under-resourced, overworked NHS hospital. The image released of that boy shook voters and made them think twice about voting for the party responsible, Boris Johnson’s Conservatives. But one right-wing journalist claimed she was about to expose the whole story as an elaborate stunt. That was until her “source”… → Read More
