Progressives,
*just* attacking Labour isn’t as useful as creating leverage over them and using that to push them forward.
If we only attack, we help the people that are *much* worse.
That’s not a lesser-of-two-evils argument, it’s our broken system, that we can use our leverage to get them to fix

-Burnham doesn’t cap donations.
-Reform get record donations.
In addition:
- Voter ID will remain (needlessly), it’s estimated that 400k were denied a vote in 2024 as a result
- Proportional Representation not part of the “Representation of the People” bill making it an oxymoron
-Burnham doesn’t cap donations.
-Reform get record donations.

Oooh a severe alert about wildfires from the government.
Thing is, we’ve been issuing global alerts for decades that things like this would happen because of climate change.
They’ve done basically nothing, and now have the gall to be this patronising.

If Andy Burnham is going to essentially cite mandate when not doing things or even having opinions, he should really cite the mandate he has for the thungs he IS doing.
Consistency is important, otherwise it’s just doing whatever you want without any explanations at all.

we can't kick the problem of climate change down the road another 3 years while our new prime minister finds his mandate.
if there's no mandate right now, what's the point of even being prime minister?

How do we pay for UBI?

We used to ask
“at which tree do we stop?”
We know the answer now.
We’ll only stop when the last tree is gone.
And probably not even then, as we suffocate and starve.
Wouldn’t it be brilliant if we stopped burning the planet.
