Do millenials ever stop to consider how ludicrous it is that most are paying more in rent each month than they would if they had a mortgage on the same property? They're working to pay off their landlord's mortgage, funding their lifestyle. All for the sake of a mortgage deposit.

There are more landlords than women on the new Scottish Tory front bench. 'Blue collar Conservativism' in action, indeed.
Marxist critiques challenge the hoarded wealth of established oxbridge academics, and while socialist education policies don't hurt them, they help underpayed, casualised junior academics and other university staff, who aren't them. The "I'm alright Jack" of philosophical reason.

I’m not retweeting this because I’m Corporation Man, but because as a British citizen I’m afraid there’s a growing movement to take the BBC apart and refashion UK broadcasting in the image of Fox TV. #foxtv #savetheBBC #bbclicensefee

Most of the media failed to scrutinise Boris Johnson for his history of rampant racism and homophobia, while doing Labour over for tweets sent by random members. Now the Tories have hired a eugenicist and the PM won't say if he thinks black people are mentally inferior.
Horrific

I wish everyone a Happy and Peaceful New Year. Though sadly Labour is not in government we still have a vital role to play in 2020, working in all our communities to support those still facing the harsh realities of our system & to build the social movement for change. Solidarity
