    “form[ing] partnerships with the private sector” is literal privatisation.

    and the Canary is one of the (the only?) worker owned news outlets in the UK, sometimes it’s a bit sloppy but calling it “trash” is doing free PR work for plutocrats

      Alongside squawkbox, it’s one of the popular media outlets designed to appeal to left wing folks that regularly work to oppose the Labour Party (who they call “red tories”) winning.

      I had a leftist explain to me earlier that it would be better for Boris to win because Labour was too right wing and it would put people off voting for a properly leftist party if the centrists got into power again.
