Here is the promo video for ‘Battle’, our first release from the new LP.
It’s a song of joyous defiance in troubled times. I hope you like it my friends.
If you do, please do me the honour of retweeting far & wide ❤️🙏❤️
#adifferentbattleeveryday
So the guy who’s been a Labour MP for 7 years, elevated to political fame by our former leader, has now banned the guy who’s been a tirelessly campaigning grassroots MP for 40 years.
Why would anyone vote for a party this corrupt?
Oh look all of
@jeremycorbyn
’s policies that he got absolutely fooking slaughtered for are mysteriously coming into vogue.
This country is ill, we coulda started this journey 6 years ago.
#CorbynWasRight
#Socialism
This photo was taken 36 years ago today just before the massed ranks of police attacked and brutalised the miners at Orgreave.
Later that day
@BBCNews
reversed their film to make it look to the whole nation like the miners attacked first.
Don’t ever forget that.
#OrgreaveJustice
Which side you on? Rachel Riley MBE, chosen by the establishment to tell us of the perils of racism OR Michael Rosen, aul leftie childrens author?
It's a beautiful illustration of everything that's wrong with this country.
One exudes kindness the other a hardness of the heart.
Unbelievable statement by the Musicians Union regurgitating old smears & distortions.
@WeAreTheMU
is a scab union. I urge my fellow professional musicians to have absolutely nothing to do with it.
Rashford quite rightly a hero right across the country today, Jeremy Corbyn had the same policy and they turned every last drop of firepower they had on him for over 4 long years.
It’s very ill in its heart this country.
Farewell Bernard Hill, your powerful unhinged performance in Boys From The Blackstuff stopped an entire nation in its tracks.
Never once have I strolled through Williamson Square and not thought of Yosser Hughes.
If you challenge racism where ever you see it, why you have never challenged the disgusting racism against me by senior Labour Party officials exposed in the Forde report?
Hey
@MFeijota
I’ve never voted for anyone but Labour both local & at GE’s. About 50 times in my long life. Absolutely rock solid.
Nothing on this earth would make me put my precious cross next to that Tory c*nt Starmer. Nothing.
Hope that’s clear.
Personally, if you’re not voting Labour or tactically, you’re just supporting the tories at this point. How you’ll sit with that on your conscience is with you, and you only.
I live here, we go the Pier Head most nights. These kids use this public space the right way, banning them is a drastic over reaction
@lpoolcouncil
The posh flats on Mann Island don’t like the noise?
It’s the city centre, tell ‘em to go live in the suburbs.
#occupythepierhead
Dear
@socialistcam
The moment is finally upon you, this is the time to act in solidarity with
@jeremycorbyn
your trusted & disgracefully treated friend.
Maybe resign the whip, sit as an independent bloc, just do SOMETHING.
Ian. X
#corbyn
Unscientific & parochial I know, but still worth a mention. In light of this weeks political turmoil, 95% of mates I’ve spoken to or bumped into in town, lifelong Labour voters to a man, have all said the same thing.
They ain’t going anywhere near Starmer.
"I LOST MY FAMILY IN GAZA!" A Palestinian who lost his mother, brother & nieces to Israel's bombing in Gaza confronts Angela Raynor & the Labour Party at a Stockport fundraiser.
How can the Labour Party & any party not call for a ceasefire when Israel's genocide has killed 25000…
I’m delighted Luciana has accepted my invitation to rejoin Labour.
My test for change was whether those who were rightly appalled by how far we had fallen believe this is their party again.
I know we’ve more to do but we’re unrecognisable from the party that forced her out.
Starmer is cheering on the cutting off of food, electricity, water & medical aid to Gaza. Mostly to children.
Against the Geneva convention and a known War Crime.
Wrecks my ‘ead how anyone, anyone, could ever consider voting for him.
His heart is rotten.
Utterly shit news about Terry Hall. How lucky we were to have his anti star, non showy, conviction singing. In a world of falsity Terry stood different.
Fuck sake. 🥺
Starmer will enter Liverpool in a blacked out car, go through the ring of steel which encompasses the arena & The Pullman adjoining hotel.
He’ll eat & sleep there. Then leave in the same car.
He won’t see an inch of Liverpool outside of that.
Because we’ll say something to him.
While Starmer goes to Liverpool and tries to avoid everyone who lives there because of the papers he writes for, those opposed to his draconian authoritarianism and the tory-litism he stands for are getting organised in his London constituency. Between them, the anti-Starmer…
There’s no evidence that JC is an antisemite, there’s loads to document his work defending the Jewish community, but because we’re absolutely fooking desperate so we’re gonna say it’s lurking in the ‘back of his mind’.
No evidence for that either btw.
Most progressive people now accept the idea - as regards most forms of racism and discrimination - of the existence of unconscious bias. Apparently not in the case of this form though.
The S*n will be in our city attending the
@UKLabour
conference from Sunday at Starmers behest.
If you insist that heinous publication be allowed at your conference then hold it in another city.
Dead simple.
#dontbuythesun
Starmer in Liverpool then: "This city has been wounded by the media, the Sun.. & I certainly wont be giving interviews to the Sun during the course of this campaign"
Starmer heading to Liverpool this weekend: "I'm very happy to work with the Sun.. to do interviews with the Sun"
My performance at the Picket line this morning has been cancelled out of respect for the awful school coach accident on the Wirral this morning.
When I got there the striking workers were itching to get in and help the injured. Magnificent people.
Due to a serious traffic incident in the area, many CSWs on the Wirral picket have immediately returned to work to help.
We dispersed our picket and members are returning home to be on-call to help.
Our thoughts are with everyone impacted by this terrible incident.
Great to have Eddie Dempsey from
@RMTunion
in Liverpool today for the
@eiecampaign
rally.
Had a message for him from his fav cousin (yes he’s related to Damo 😀☘️)
The next election should famously be the one we all finally rejected both our morally corrupt 2 main corporate parties.
Vote Green or independent socialist.
No more illegal wars. Introduce a Prevention of Military Intervention Act and put human rights at the heart of foreign policy. Review all UK arms sales and make us a force for international peace and justice.
I’ll miss you so much my dearest friend. Can’t believe you’re gone.
You showed the fellas how to do it. ❤️
All our love to Paul & the kids.
#janicelong
Labours Jonathan Ashworth: "I definitely would not have endorsed the language that Gary Lineker used in that tweet and I don't think anybody is defending that tweet"
erm... lots of people are.
#GMB
So if Jezza does stand in Islington at the next GE it’ll mean he’s left the LP.
In that case it should/could be the first seat won for a brand new socialist party.
Which would be a great start.
#Corbyn
Given a choice between bile filled hard right wing, murdered schoolgirls phone tapping man-baby Piers Morgan or the OAP, allotment loving, foodbank helping, peacenik Jeremy Corbyn …. Starmer sides with Morgan.
Another day another reason to loathe this liar.
#StarmerOut
As usual in this totally fooked up country there’s only one major league politician showing any sort of forthright humanity.
The rest are equivocating, squirming & trying to impress heartless cunts for so called votes.
Every socialist politician should be retweeting this.
As part of my participation on the Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme, I joined my good friend
@KimJohnsonMP
to attend a dress rehearsal for the Coronation late last night & into the early hours this morning.
BREAKING: Downing Street is lit up in the Israel flag this evening after the government asked that all its buildings use appropriate coloured lighting to show solidarity with the country
📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
‘Like, we're the Beatles after all, aren't we. We have all the money you could ever dream of. We have all the fame you could ever wish for. But, it isn't love.
It isn't health. It isn't peace inside. Is it’
Right on George.
Wish you were still here 🌞 ☯️
#GeorgeHarrison
Apparently I’ve just been on the last ever Liverpool-London
@VirginTrains
It was late.
Glad to see the back of Bransons service,

will not be forgotten.
Onwards to a civilised fairer service under a Labour Gov.

@MFeijota
No, he’s not left wing enough but he’s more left wing than the alternative so Labour will get my vote. As they did previously.
I just got on a train and sat down, within a minute there was an announcement on the intercom ...
‘Passenger announcement: This train does stop on Merseyside, thank you’
🤣
Solidarity with Eddie Dempsey, proper anti-fascist, proper socialist, proper trade unionist, proper fighter for ordinary people, proper front line anti racist.
And he’s Damo’s cousin, what more dya fookin want 🇮🇪 ✊
Just been down to show solidarity on the
@RMTunion
picket line outside Liverpool Lime Street this morning.
Great atmosphere amongst the lads & lasses with loads of public support.
They told me our music has been getting played too 😀✊
#rmtunion
#Railways
Just performed ‘My Name is Dessie Warren’ at a do to mark the success of the campaign to prove the state wrongly victimised and imprisoned the Shrewsbury pickets in the 70’s.
I also reminded Jezza he was our roadie at the Tolpuddle Martyrs Fezzy a couple of years ago 😄
Reason so many are upset about this
@springsteen
‘dynamic pricing’ scandal is coz when we buy a Bruce ticket it’s an emotional contract ‘tween us & him as ordinary folk.
That’s his thing.
This pisses on that. His people need to speak up.
#springsteentour2023
#ticketmaster
Many of
@springsteen
songs and stories about his relationship with his father were hard ones. This particular story from Broadway was so powerful,touching and positive. I was really happy that Bruce found some happiness and some sort of closure with his dad. Happy Father’s Day.
Johnson dares us to imagine the mess if Corbyn got in. Ok then.
🤔
No foodbanks

I’m pleased to report Rosalita Prowse, age 10, flatly refused hers in class yesterday citing the monarchy as being ‘no better than us’.

Still buzzin from how monumental the
@RollingStones
were last night.
Music, it solves everything!
Massive thanks to
@ElvisCostello
for taking us on a top night out.
Mouthing off about masks & vaccines but absolutely nowhere to be seen at the last election when we had a genuine radical chance to help our most vulnerable, our homeless, our disabled, address our severe societal inequalities.

#ianbrownnoelgallagher
The Tories have failed on immigration.
Labour will work with businesses to provide training and skills for workers and young people.
And we'll fix the government’s failing Apprenticeship Levy so businesses can invest in the skills of their workers.
These heartless monsters are going to be in power soon, you should walk away from that voting booth with your own moral decency clean & intact by going nowhere near them.
Genocide is the crime of crimes,
@UKLabour
are complicit.
Shadow minister Pat McFadden is clear - Israel is an ally, Labour aren't calling for a ban on arms sales to them, & if Labour win the next election they'll continue selling arms to them.
Gutted to hear Gerry has gone. What a lovely & funny fella he was.
When it came to writing songs about this magical & mad aul place he did it best. 💔
#GerryMarsdenRIP
#YNWA
Just received an e mail from our Labour MP here in Liverpool Riverside throwing Jeremy Corbyn under the bus.
She’ll not get my vote at the next election.
All together now: 🎶 YOU CAN STICK THE CORONATION UP YER ARSE, YOU CAN STICK THE CORONATION UP YER ARSE, STICK THE CORONATION STICK THE CORONATION STICK THE CORONATION UP YER ARSE. 🎶
Liverpool will play the national anthem prior to Saturday's game v Brentford at Anfield - despite the opposition of so many supporters.
Club feel they were placed in an impossible position by the Premier League.
#LFC
Well done to Mick Lynch for his handling of this line of questioning. He could see what
#KayBurley
was trying to do. I could see what Kay Burley was trying to do. And he wasn't having any of it.
Oh, and solidarity to all
@RMTunion
members on strike today!✊🏽
How much more evidence do you need that he’s gonna pick you all off one by one
@socialistcam
?
The talking should be over, time to actually do something.
I’ve been barred from standing as North East Mayor by
@UKLabour
. No explanation has been given.
I’m proud to have created thousands of jobs, fought child poverty, built affordable homes and delivered our Green New Deal. I believe in democracy. Share if you do too. More to follow.
