i'm not a Green! so who cares what I think! But anyway here I am. the main question in my mind is if accepting one or more amendments to this paper would have locked down more buy-in from many of the senior Greens and helped the party weather what's now happening. Genuinely idk

I have convened a regular meeting of what are described as unpaid carers for a few years now. These are family members who care for their disabled children, siblings or parents, or, in some instances, both. They are the largely hidden & unrecognised foundations of our existing precarious care service. They care out of love & duty, but the pressure they are under is often unrelenting and thrusts many into severe hardship and poverty. This article speaks for so many of them about the fears they have for the future. So yes, in this incredibly welcome discussion about social care it’s important they are not just heard but are part of the design & creation of the new system of social care in our country. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

probably close enough to the truth but with a couple of additional notes, in that Burnham is a genuinely *nice* guy and certainly Blair never particularly was, that matters, and secondly there is no 'Plan B' for the centre-left, this is its 9th life already for a generation

dare i say it but politics twitter - at least based on the non-far right - seems pretty minimal/dead in terms of engagement? have ppl in the uk overdosed & are having a break, or so many ppl have left or was it always a bit crap?

wanted to like this but increasingly i find myself wondering if this isn't a circular argument that eg Robin Murray and Hilary Wainwringht addressed decades ago -make growth *your* growth, there's not much scope to do socialism *without* a welfare state (social democracy) first

the internal balance of the Labour Party remains hostile to socialists.
