Ecuador’s election wasn’t free — and its people will pay the price under President Noboa
Tory policies make this government not fit to govern — we should resist them all
Rather than fighting the ‘culture wars,’ we must focus on resisting every part of the Tory agenda and proposing truly transformative economic polices instead, writes DIANE ABBOTT MP

THE DEMONSTRATION today is a great opportunity to bring together all the strands of the movement, both long-established and newly emerging, in the fight for a better society and against the policies of this government.
We are united against the Tories. But we should also be clear that we are not fighting the individuals that comprise this government, or even Tory rule. We completely oppose the entire reactionary agenda of this government.
This means opposing it root and branch in terms of all its attacks, coming to the defence of all working people and those suffering discrimination and counterposing progressive policies of our own to the Tories’ extreme right-wing agenda.
