Rachel Reeves plans to deliver a budget on 26 November — but how can she do that when the Labour government is falling apart? Cabinet briefings, internal plotting and collapsing confidence mean Labour has lost its coherence just when Britain needs leadership. A budget is a statement of belief and purpose. Right now, this government has neither.

In this video, I explain why Reeves’ commitment to Tory fiscal rules leaves her unable to act, why Starmer cannot articulate a vision, and why Britain desperately needs investment, fair wages and a politics of care. Can a government with no conviction deliver a budget worth listening to?

Is there a coup underway at the BBC? When journalists are punished for minor mistakes while truth-tellers are silenced, that’s not accountability — that’s control. In this video, I explore how the BBC has become the front line in a far-right campaign to destroy truth itself, and why this matters for democracy in Britain and beyond.

Every day we’re told that Britain can’t afford the poor and that there isn’t enough money for care, housing or wages. But the truth is the opposite: it’s the poor who can’t afford the rich.

In this video, I explain how wealth extraction through interest, rent, and monopoly profit acts like three hidden taxes on us all. These “taxes of rentier capitalism” drain our pay, inflate our bills, and keep poverty in place.

What this makes clear is that scarcity is a political choice, not an economic fact. Fiscal rules, low taxes on capital and privatisation all serve the wealthy, not society. Ending these subsidies could release the capacity for the investment we need in care, housing, and decent wages.

If we stop affording the rich, we can afford everyone else.

We’re told that the 1970s proved Keynesian economics failed, that inflation and unemployment could rise together, and only neoliberalism could fix it. But the truth is very different. External shocks, not excessive spending, drove that crisis. Governments panicked, misunderstood money, and abandoned Keynes when they needed him most.

In this video, I unpack what really caused stagflation — and why repeating those mistakes today risks another lost decade for Britain.

The news is lying to you — and Britain is falling apart behind the scenes

Every night, the lights are bright, the headlines loud — but the real news is missing.

While the media fixates on Trump, Farage and the Royals, Britain’s children go hungry, families can’t afford homes, and carers are exhausted.

In this video, I explain how the theatre of distraction keeps us angry but uninformed — and why we must reclaim the news for the Politics of Care: food, housing, health, and climate.

Watch, share, and join the conversation: it’s time to stop funding the circus.

Arthur Laffer’s “curve” is one of the most destructive ideas in modern economics.

Sketched on a napkin in the 1970s, it claimed that cutting tax rates could increase government revenue.

It became gospel for Reagan, Thatcher and every neoliberal government since.

But it was wrong.

In this video, I explain why Laffer misunderstood tax, ignored inequality, and helped unleash tax competition that undermined democracy.

I debated Laffer in person — and I’ll show you why his logic collapses when tested against modern money and real economies and the idea that fair taxation builds strong societies, whilst low taxation builds fragile ones.

Donald Trump’s Great Gatsby–style party at Mar-a-Lago reveals everything about modern America — excess at the top, hunger at the bottom, and the deliberate cruelty of power without care. As millions faced cuts to essential payments, Trump partied. This is what happens when power forgets compassion.

The government says there’s a “black hole” in the public finances — but the black hole is really in our hospitals, schools, and local councils, not the Treasury. The UK can never run out of money. What we’ve run out of is political courage.

Austerity was not fiscal responsibility. It was economic vandalism.

Britain is not broke. It’s been broken by design.

Watch to see how we can fill that hole with truth, courage, and care.
