This makes me ashamed to be British and ashamed of an @UKLabour government that enacts illiberal attempts to stifle legitimate voices @tribunemagazine @AndreasMalm

We need to tread a fine line - @andyburnham has to work and we need to say and do what’s needed to make it so @CompassOffice
Neal Lawson, who was by Andy Burnham’s side for the march on Downing Street, runs his eye over the project so far in today’s Sunday Times

It felt strange heading into Labour conference that no one had examined Starmerism. It happened and it can’t be allowed to happen again. So here you go: neallawson2u.substack.com/p/starmerism-a…

We wanted to share love letters. From @AndyBurnhamGM to Makerfield and Manchester and back from those places to him. And then from Greater Manchester to the county with message - “go on you need him now too ”. Please share again 🙏

If Orban loses, we're going to have another 6 weeks of "have we reached peak populism" discourse
Let's not miss the bigger picture here👇

I suspect the populist right bubble is bursting the world over. Trump is a busted flush, Orban will likely be hammered tomorrow, Bolsonaro is incarcerated & Farage is looking more like a loser with each passing day. These guys only offer anger & hate, not solutions & progress.

Jones sets up to not concede and we do. We might not go down but it’s the worse football I’ve ever seen at the Valley in 50 years of watching. The people who clap him - not the team are deluded - it’s not the teams fault - it’s his #cafc

The @TheGreenParty wave would have been stalled if @AndyBurnhamGM had been allowed to stand according to a poll in the @NewStatesman:
Andy Burnham (Labour): 14916 (40.4%)
Hannah Spencer (Green): 10487 (28.4%)
Matthew Goodwin (Reform): 9520 (25.8%)

51% for the left bloc and 39% for the right. Yes this has to be argued for and won. But the #ProgressiveMajority can be unlocked via a #ProgessiveAlliance @CompassOffice @AndyBurnhamGM @ZackPolanski

A Labour Party that kisses right and kicks left was always going to fail. But #GortonAndDenton is a disaster for the Party who face real competition from the left and a triumph for the @TheGreenParty @CompassOffice newstatesman.com/comment/2026/0…

The case for #ProportionalRepresentation in a fragmented party system is now unarguable @MakeVotesMatter @Labour4PR @UnlockDemocracy @electoralreform
"And the next election under first past the post, if it stays anything like that, is just going to be chaotic... So we've got to bring in proportional representation."

So pleased to join @Neal_Compass and Mary Kaldor on last week’s @CompassOffice podcast to discuss why Starmer got Trump so wrong, the awful trade deals he’s signed with him… and how we can start standing up to Trump and his fascist international.

One man jumps overboard but it’s the sinking ship of @UKLabour we need to worry about. It needs a new purpose and direction - it needs @CompassOffice magazine.newstatesman.com/2026/02/09/mcs…
