By Sam Hamad People are rioting in Paris because no one can afford anything. It’s a generation of people locked out of functional life (relatively speaking). And it’s getting worse and worse and worse. The entire point about liberal democracy and late modernity is that it had to adapt in many ways they could not […]
James Orr is a far right, Class Warrior for the rich. John Medhurst traces his career. Because the UK’s fearless media probably won’t report much on this guy beyond that James Orr is/was “Farage’s chief policy advisor”, which is to say Reform’s Head of Policy, and that he liked the sound of easy cash that […]
By John Davies Ratko Mladic died yesterday, the butcher of Srebrenica and too many other places to mention. I’ve looked on Facebook and not seen a single comment. I don’t know why this is, but I felt I couldn’t let it pass. Bosnia, of which I had previously barely heard, played a big part in […]
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. At the time of writing the polls are barely open, but by the end of the Summer it’s quite likely, according to polls and pundits, that Burnham will be PM. If Successful in Makerfield today, every indication is that he will be putting his shoulder to the […]

SPOT THE TORY GRIFT Don’t be fooled by the cyan tie. Reform UK is just a “recycled” Tory party designed to sneak the same old rot back into Holyrood. Here is the reality. 1. THE TEAM SHEET (Follow the Bloodline) Reform isn’t a new movement. It is a shell company for ex-Tories who can’t get […]
by Sam Hamad If Netanyahu is defeated, there’s going to be a lot of gushing by the more clever members of the Support the Genocide Coalition and other birdbrained liberals, who will conveniently forget that the main opposition to him is every bit as racist, fascistic and genocidal as Netanyahu, namely because Israel is a […]
How Reform Hides Behind Your Phone Screen By Indybag The shift in politics from loudhailers on the town square to the private screen in your pocket is the biggest tactical move we’ve seen in years. For Reform UK, this isn’t just a preference. It is a survival -and perhaps a winning- strategy. By bypassing the […]
By Indybag The career of Tommy Sheridan is a study in how to torch your own legacy. We’ve seen him rise from a cell during the anti-poll tax riots to the heights of the Scottish Parliament, only to end up as a perennial figure of controversy. Once known for his oratorical fire and an apparently […]
