2026 UK Elections: The Muted Threat of Your Party Corbyn’s seeming reluctance to found his own political party last September — having to be persuaded by former Labour MP Zarah Sultana — may be seeping into Your Party’s campaign ahead of the upcoming May 2026 UK elections. The party has endured a difficult first half-year: internal policy and leadership disputes, boycotted conferences, multiple MPs defecting, and a rival socialist party in the Greens surging in the polls.

Price Poetry Festival to an audience in Chestertown, MD (CHESTERTOWN, MD) – Last Saturday night, the MacArthur Genius Grant Recipient and Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Jericho Brown inspired tears, laughter, and love at his reading of a collection of his own poetry during the 17th Annual Robert E.

One of the most pressing issues of the twenties in the United States is the brutality employed by law enforcement. Police brutality manifests in many forms. The exacerbation of racial prejudice in the exertion of unchecked authority by municipal police forces since before many of us were born, resulting in hundreds of unnecessary deaths of innocents (George Floyd, Sonya Massey, Breonna Taylor, Amadou Diallo, Sean Bell, Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, etc.) is the most

"Free Palestine #2", Allisdare Hickson Prime Minister Keir Starmer in the past few days has announced a plan that would recognize Palestinian statehood if the Israeli government does not agree to a ceasefire by September 2025. This move by the UK government is following (somewhat) in the steps of President Macron of France’s decision to recognize Palestinian statehood by September, and comes at a time when more and more moderate and liberal politicians are acknowledging the o

(NEW YORK, NY) – T.M. Scanlon wrote What We Owe to Each Other over two decades, very much exemplifying the Contractualist ethics that he outlines in the aforementioned book, taking elements of great Social Contract theorists like Rousseau and deontological thinkers like Immanuel Kant, forming his own type of that which, he calls (as I do) “Contractualism.” A philosophy of moral ethics that is fundamentally grounded in the rules of social engagement and engagement with the out

(NEW YORK, NY) – Over the weekend, as Trump celebrated his birthday, the Nation was engulfed in the largest single day of protests that it has ever seen (since the Women’s March in 2017, on Trump’s inauguration.) Across America people made their previously unheard voices heard, and they resoundingly are saying that Trump’s attempt at tyrannical reign will not stand, and that America will remain free of Kings as it has been since 1776.
