  • John McDonnell: Labour will nationalise railways within five years

    September 22, 2018

     Britain's railways could be taken back into public hands within five years if Labour wins the next general election, according to shadow chancellor John McDonnell. Ahead of Labour’s party conference which starts tomorrow, John McDonnell told the BBC he was looking at the possibility of breaking clauses in contracts to allow rail franchises to be [...]

  • Labour mulls break-up of Big Four accountancy firms

    September 21, 2018

His speech at the TUC Congress on the gig economy shouldn’t surprise us. This is, after all, a man who waved Mao’s Little Red Book when he [...]

  • Shadow chancellor John McDonnell warns City: ‘People want change… get used to it’

    July 30, 2018

    It’s fair to say that John McDonnell does not see the world in quite the same light as most City workers. During the first Budget after he became shadow chancellor, McDonnell quoted from Chairman Mao’s Little Red Book, before flinging it at his then-counterpart George Osborne. Years earlier, he was caught on camera saying he [...]
