The home for the politically homeless.
Welcome to Frances Weetman Writes - the place I will publish some of my writing. I’m hoping to make this a place the politically homeless can feel less alone. Worried about the authoritarianism of the Johnson government but despairing at the chaos that is Labour politics nowadays? Find yourself sick of tribalism and news outlets that only tell one half of the story? Then you’re in the right place.
For those unacquainted: I am 29, live in North East England, and until just a few days ago was an independent elected councillor. I initially ran for office in 2016 on a Labour Party ticket, but resigned my Labour Party membership in 2018 over the party’s failure to tackle antisemitism. I ran for the European Parliament with Change UK in 2019.
