Don't blame the public for the lack of trust in politics: blame the political-media class.

They cannot see why they are hated. They fail and fail and fail. They lie and lie and lie.

We need an overhaul of our democratic system, not elites wanging on about the Nolan principles.

The war was never on Jeremy Corbyn. He is the proxy. The war is on you.

But the fightback has begun. The crucible is Islington North. See you there. We can win.

Remember when Samantha Power called for 'embedding U.S. power in an international system and demonstrating humility'? Pretty good advice, I wonder what she's up to these days. newrepublic.com/article/66759/…

No doubt Russian airstrikes are 'terrorising' Kharkiv. But you'll be hard-pressed to find a Guardian news report describing US, UK or Israeli airstrikes as terrorising the cities they have repeatedly bombed Number10 Media Lens CP MacLochlainn
