Latest poll puts Greens just two points behind Labour. When I said we weren't here to be disappointed in Labour but to replace them, I meant it.

I think this is supposed to be some kind of satire, but it's actually excellent comms.

I got into politics to Abolish Bad Things, and seek to continue to abolish bad things.

Green membership across Great Britain has now overtaken the Lib Dems.

@greenparty.org.uk passed 78,000 last night. @scottishgreens.org have 7,800, producing a total of 85,800.

Last month, the Lib Dems told the BBC they had 83,174: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

What Happened to Labour's 2024 Voters? The who, what, when, how and huh of why Labour has lost so much support in such a short period of time

What Happened to Labour's 2024 Voters?

Using the recent wave of the @britishelectionstudy.com I look at people who voted Labour in 2024:
- How many are still with the party?
- How many have left?
- Why might that be?

TLDR: they've left because of economic issues/concerns, probably.

How do we fix this mess?

Hold a bit of cardboard that says "Palestine action" and you'll get arrested. Assault police officers in the name of racism and you get away with it.

I've been impressed in the last few months with @zackpolanski.bsky.social. Really optimistic going forward for the Greens

Black cat cat on a sofa arm

The cat is normally quite aloof and doesn't care for company, particularly from me.

Just spent a week away and she doesn't seem to want to leave my side

When Labour in the future say you have to vote for them to stop Reform – remember there are countless reasons that argument is equal parts absurd and offensive.

But 26th August 2025 should stand out for their complete capitulation to the right.

Absolutely shameful.

This country was and still is built on multiculturalism with different cultures coming together. That’s is what makes this country great. Now and historically. Not you. Not your whiteness. Not your racism masquerading as patriotism.

Get in the sea.

🚨An important reminder of the trauma faced by asylum seekers.

Not just in fleeing persecution abroad.

Not just in the perilous and desperate journey to these shores.

But by the hatred and vitriol put on them by the right wing in this country for callous political gain.

Watched this morning and the 2 minutes or so it took Adrian to say he liked Zack was not impressive and I think is the standout moment of the campaign.

Genuinely feel there is a distinct difference in tone for leadership debates between Adrian and Zack compared to Ellie and Zack.

Secondly after our AGM I will be the new treasurer for @lincolngreenparty.bsky.social.

Two exciting things have happened over this weekend.

Firstly we are now the owners of a Royal Python, name yet to be determined as my oldest keeps changing her mind

The Telegraph who hate illegal immigrants, advising Brits how to be illegal immigrants.

It's kind of my problem with their campaign, I just don't know what they're standing for. If they can't get me enthusiastic as a member for their leadership, I don't know how they will get the public to.

First gig of the year tonight. Off to see PUP in Manchester

I came across a crochet design for this silly thing, made it and now I think I need to make 10 more

I hadn't thought of it that way actually!

Bracebridge Heath (North Kesteven). Just outside of Lincoln.

I've not been active with the Greens for long, but my understanding for the GE was on cost grounds they were focussing on the 4 seats they thought they could win.

From the local party view, we've got county elections and Greater Lincolnshire mayor election in May so only so much we can do.

4.6% last night for me. I got more than the lib Dems and got almost half the votes Labour got with zero campaigning. Better than I expected

New @cheekface.bsky.social album and a new @catbiteband.bsky.social song on the same day, what a time to be alive

My oldest daughter has been asking about football for a few months now, so today we're off to see Derby County Women's.

£6 for me, free for her, so at least if she doesn't like it, it's not a waste of money
