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 […]
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 […]
They’re draining our oil- the next capitalist goal is to crush Scottish Independence for our water… Would you support giving nature legal rights to fight back against data centres in court? It sounds like a radical idea, but when you look at how the Westminster establishment is selling off our basic resources to tech billionaires, […]
By our Education Correspondent. When summer ends, its time for inservices… another meeting, another PowerPoint. The senior management team stands at the front of the staff room, clicking through slides filled with “inspirational” Brene Brown quotes about daring to lead and leaning into vulnerability.

It’s not just that he had to get his cunt nose involved with the Gaza genocide, namely through Trump’s pro-Israel ethnic cleansing embezzlement vehicle known as the “Board of Peace”, or that he advocated that […]
The political entity currently known as Reform UK presents itself as a radical departure from the established order, yet a closer inspection reveals it to be a rebranding of the most regressive elements of British political history. It is the ideological heir to the hard-right Thatcherism of the 1980s and the exclusionary nationalism of Enoch […]
By Sam Hamad By voting SNP today, or Green in the English local elections, or our comrades in Plaid Cymru in Wales, you’re voting against everything the sordid, filthy, pathetic Labour Party stand for. Here’s a quick rundown of Labour’s record of shame: Supported the Tory Hard Brexit Stifled any progressive conversation on rejoining the […]
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 […]
