NEW - Ed Miliband appears to suggest that there was previous resistance under Keir Starmer to taking this action.

"I'll say very bluntly we should have acted earlier. And it has taken the new prime minister to come in and recognise the gravity of the situation."

Very sad news. The Africa Centre has closed. Especially sad for Little Baobab, the superb Senegalese restaurant that was housed in it.

Last year, far right activist and ex-special forces soldier Ant Middleton started promoting ANT Coin on his social media.

"This token isn’t going anywhere for the next decade" he said. But he stopped posting about it after barely a week.

Why?

With new Labour leadership on the horizon, Reform has nowhere to run but spectacle.

Farage knows that a Labour Party that ends business as usual would spell the end of the Reform Party.

This is a stunt to distract from Labour’s potential to make big change under a new leader.

keep seeing reports that markets are jittery about a potential Miliband Treasury and it’s pure vibes right? he is a mainstream, experienced, capable politician who understands economics and they’re treating him like Green Liz Truss

Today marks 10 years since the murder of Jo Cox.

Jo lived the change she wanted to see in the world - kind, compassionate, inclusive, thoughtful, speaking up for the vulnerable and powerless.

This is close to my heart. Please donate on the link below if you can to support Refugee Week in St Helens. Reform have withdrawn council support. Shameful but not a suprise. Let's show the best of St Helens - decency, solidarity and compassion.
