Inside Labour Politics
While Labour edges back towards science and sanity, the historic case of Sandie Peggie is shining a light into the darker corners of SNP-led Scotland, where wrongthink on gender in the workplace is punished like in a Salem witch trial. Me at @LabourUncut: labour-uncut.co.uk/2025/07/22/lab…
Slowly but surely, Labour is returning to sanity from gender ideology. But the Sandie Peggie case is laying bare how an SNP-led public sector in Scotland is fighting a disastrous rearguard action against it. Me at @LabourUncut: labour-uncut.co.uk/2025/07/22/lab…
Labour slowly turns away from gender ideology, but Scotland continues in its thrall says @rob_marchant labour-uncut.co.uk/2025/07/22/lab…
The case for hope: Why Keir Starmer’s situation isn’t as bad as reported and Labour victory at the next election is now MORE likely after the past year- @AtulHatwal on why the gloom is being overdone and missing what matters most from Labour's year in govt labour-uncut.co.uk/2025/07/04/the…
My bit @LabourUncut on why the Labour gloom is being overdone. Progress on what *really* matters to voters - cost of living and NHS - is being ignored for SW1 psychodrama. History shows that if this progress continues, Lab will be well placed to win again labour-uncut.co.uk/2025/07/04/the…

Britain has a Middle East ally that respects religious diversity, has quotas for women in Parliament and a British university in the capital. So why aren't we doing more to support them? asks Toby Bell labour-uncut.co.uk/2025/06/05/did…
Yesterday in the @HouseofCommons I spoke about what I term ‘the responsibility agenda’. 🎥 👇🏻 I wrote about this concept for the first a long time ago in 2015 for @LabourUncut 👀 labour-uncut.co.uk/2015/01/14/our… I’ll have more to say on this.
Not a great performance from London's mayor these last 12 months: gone "from saying Labour needed to 'rebuild its relationship' with the Jewish community at the nadir of Corbynism in 2018, to having to lock down Twitter replies after wishing it a happy Chanukah in 2024."
Continuing our review of the last year with the Uncut political awards, we come to 'Disappointment of the year' which goes to Mayor Sadiq Khan for his lack of solidarity with London’s Jewish community labour-uncut.co.uk/2025/01/04/the…
Centrist Labour digital mag @LabourUncut on Sadiq Khan: ‘For example, what are the great achievements he can point to, after eight years in charge of Britain’s capital? Activists, we can be sure, shuffle awkwardly when asked this on the doorstep. “Not being Boris Johnson” is…

New from me @LabourUncut - the political upsides for Labour of Nigel Farage: He splits the Tory vote, drags the Tories way too far right and will unite the fragmented left wherever Reform are challenging to take a Labour seat labour-uncut.co.uk/2024/12/28/nig…
