It’s finally here. We will build our party together. But into what, how and for what purpose? I discussed that all with @Oliver_Eagleton. newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/…
“The media is obsessed with it being called Your Party." "That's fine, it's more coverage of the fact we're creating a democratic party." @schneiderhome says 200,000 people have signed up for Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana's new venture.
Very glad @NewLeftReview are doing this series on the 'post-Corbynite left', & this first piece - an interview with @schneiderhome - is well worth your time. newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/…
#UK A really interesting interview with @schneiderhome that spells out how we need to move beyond cloning limited and worn out political formations. Lots to mull.
For Sidecar, an interview with James Schneider (@schneiderhome) on Britain's new left party: 'We need a fundamental shift in our strategic vision in order to create a consensus on the left that recognises the importance of popular power.' newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/…
I don’t scoff at one. The opposite: I support one and have argued for one many times before on the record, including in a broadcast discussion with @ZackPolanski
Concerning that an "insider" in the new left party, @schneiderhome, interviewed in NLR, scoffs at the prospect of a Red-Green alliance and barely references its current, decisive leadership campaign. James: what's going on? If we follow through on your line here, we all lose
Very good interview with James Schneider on effective strategy for the new party.

James Schneider on the new party. "So the potential is there. What’s lacking is the capacity. When it comes to popular power, we are starting from a very low level. Civic life in Britain, as in much of the Global North, has been rubbed to a residue..." newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/…
Interviewed James Schneider (@schneiderhome) on his vision for the new left party: its politics, strategy, structures – and how it can build popular power in Britain. Everyone get ready! Now's the moment!! newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/…
1/8 Environment Minister Steve Reed is telling you that he won’t nationalise the water industry, because it would cost £100bn. 👀but where does that figure come from? 👀 Reed claims that it comes from within his own department. 🚨However, it looks suspiciously like it might…
I'm not a Green Party member, but if I were, I'd vote for Zack in a heartbeat.
⏳ Final week to sign up to the Green Party. 🗳️ Vote for Bold Leadership on August 1st.
NEW 🇵🇸 My article in today’s @heraldscotland on Glasgow University’s links to MBDA, the missile group complicit in killing dozens of children in Gaza. The institution is “benefitting from the proceeds of genocide,” says Rector @GhassanAbuSitt1. heraldscotland.com/news/25328874.…
I spent a year at Ofwat back in 2013 working on price controls I’m not remotely surprised it’s being abolished - what I saw astonished me 🧵 theguardian.com/business/2025/…
Yesterday in Johannesburg, PI member @abahlalibM confronted the violent, xenophobic Operation Dudula — defending migrant rights groups, outnumbering the thugs, and forcing them to retreat. Their victory song: “What is socialism? The whole world in the hands of the people.”
BREAKING 🇨🇴🇵🇸 States announce unprecedented measures to halt the Gaza genocide at emergency conference convened by The Hague Group in Bogotá, Colombia.
BOGOTÁ 🇨🇴🇵🇸 — Day 1: 30 nations gathered for a historic conference to halt the Gaza genocide. "Palestine is not alone."
And 10 children per day lose one or both of their legs. 20 months of intense hostilities have destroyed the protection environment for persons with disabilities and older persons. Protection Cluster outlines 5 key protection risks in this regard requiring immediate attention.
The Emergency Conference of States to Halt the Gaza Genocide is about to begin. 📺 WATCH LIVE: buff.ly/t4DpIH8
It’s set to be historic. Since the publication of the article, the total number of states coming to Bogotá has increased to 31 states. The fruit of the growing outrage for the genocide, its impunity, and the impotence of international law.
Wow, 20 countries - including China (!) - are meeting in Bogota this coming week to declare “concrete measures against Israel’s violations of international law.” The states due to take part in the summit include Algeria, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia,…

Keir Starmer promised one of his first acts would be to introduce the Hillsborough Law. He hasn't – so I have. Tomorrow the Government could block this Bill, or get behind it. Sign my petition calling on the Prime Minister to keep his promise: actionnetwork.org/petitions/pass…
