The new government wants to build a 'deeper and more ambitious relationship' with Europe.

So we asked our movement what should come next?

The majority say that the UK joining the single market would make them feel that the UK's relationship with Europe was moving in the right direction.

It's now been confirmed that this summer will be the hottest on record.

For those opposing bold action on the climate crisis - you're not just putting lives and the planet at risk today, but dooming future generations.
This burning summer is the proof: the voices of climate denial aren’t just delusional, they’re deadly | Sadiq Khan
Look at our blazing forests and parched cities. Green policies aren’t a ‘luxury’, and we can’t burn more oil and gas. People need the truth, says London mayor Sadiq Khan

The multimillionaire Nigel Farage rails against climate action, while gliding from one air-conditioned building to another. He knows that he and his ilk will suffer least. But he is prepared to sacrifice everyone else to the demands of his fossil-fuelled funders. So much for "the man of the people".

Immigrants & asylum seekers are not our enemies. They are not responsible for the austerity, privatisation, erosion of civic life, thinning of democracy and concentration of power we suffer. But they're being punished for these things. Punished at the behest of the very people who *are* responsible.

Climate change is real and it's happening and it's only going to get worse until everyone wakes the fuck up.

By far the biggest threat to us all. We don't have another planet we can go to.

Prompted by the rise in temperature, the males emerge en masse, exposing their pale and flabby flesh to the sun. Soon it will be a uniform bright pink, and the females, repulsed, will avert their gaze. It is truly one of the most disgusting sights in nature.

No, it’s not ‘normal’ for humans to be in competition all the time.

It’s not normal to work for most of your waking hours of the day.

It’s not normal to be stressed 24/7.

Stop taking a few hundred years of capitalism and pretending that’s just how being human is. It’s not.

Yesterday Far Right leader Tommy Robinson and his followers openly called for Islam to be removed from the UK and us Muslims to be remigrated. If he had said this about Jews, quite rightly, there would be a national response. But it has been eerily quiet today.

The Government needs to realise more regulation won’t fix our broken water system.

We need to kick financial predators out & take it back into public control.

But don’t just take it from me. Listen to a sewage campaigner who inspired Channel 4’s ‘Dirty Business’.
