"The free-market system of the past 50 years has delivered little for workers. Low paid jobs & poor services, stagnating wages & rising housing & energy costs. Plus millions of manufacturing jobs off-shored.
There are now millions in low paid, insecure work, while a few thousand at the top gorge on mega bonuses.
Are Labour going to rid themselves of the shackles of free-market dogma & finally supercharge investment to deliver growth? Will they have the ambition or courage to change?
Workers' voices are getting louder. Labour need to decide whose side they are on"

“What Farage and Robinson are doing is, in large part, a manoeuvre of deflection. Farage is himself a very wealthy Thatcherite, while Robinson is the well-funded plaything of the multibillionaire manchild Elon Musk. Their populist demagogy is just a mask.”

“Their job is to prevent masses of working people drawing class conclusions from their plight and that of the country. Our job is to expose them.”
