As Labour keeps moving right. The question is: How low do they want to go?
What I think we’ve learned since Labour came to power is that their ability to be extraordinarily appalling in their behaviour knows no bounds. The thought of this makes me want to gag.
Oh, just the business vehicle of Nigel Farage masquerading as a political party breaching its obligations at Companies House.
People say Polanski is good at communication, and that’s true. But he’s also having it made very easy for him.
It should be getting evident to even the most lump-witted Labour drone that the "Ha ha, hypnotits" strategy ain't gonna get you too far this time.
15,000 new members in the week since that historic by-election victory in Gorton and Denton. Huge!

Changes w/ 2024.
"Of those who voted Labour [in 2024], just 37% would vote Labour again".
Read that again to absorb the full, astonishing weight of what it means.
Starmer, Reeves and co have burnt their house down.

Once again the @greenparty.org.uk MP @elliechowns.bsky.social is held up as an exemplar of a good parliamentarian.
Whereas Farage doesn't respect the office enough to actually bother turning up.
Really!??? Hey, that’s super cool. Now when can we start to really change some stuff around? 🤣
They chose to go there, for the ‘good life’ and no taxes. Let them stay there, and experience what life without community and solidarity with each other feels like.
It seems the UK Labour Govt has learnt nothing from the Gorton & Denton byelection result. Instead of seeking to create welcoming communities, the Home Secretary is doubling down on hostility, risking a violation of the spirit of the 1951 Refugee Convention.

Quite!
And why can’t the various gulf states actually protect themselves? It’s not as though they don’t have the cash!
I think we all know the answer to that …
🚨 The Green Party are just THREE points behind Reform UK, approaching first place in the polls. 📈
Ha! Serves them right! I expect they’ll be looking to be bailed out at UK taxpayers expense.
Hope won 💚
Legalising and regulating drugs is about reducing the harm and deaths caused by drug use, and treating addicts rather than criminalsing them. It is appalling that Labour and Reform are playing politics with people's lives.
A party that is resolutely anti-bourgeois while being staffed and supported by the bourgeoisie is an intriguing and inevitably impossible strategy.
Anyway good luck attracting those Reform voters who hate you.
Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social,
I have enjoyed our exchange of letters about which of our parties is best placed to stop Reform. Hannah Spencer MP and I trust that you agree that this question has now been resolved once and for all.
Thanks,
Zack Polanski
What a day to be a Green Party member! The idea that good people in G&D have chosen hope over hate, a brilliantly inspiring local candidate who’ll hold this crappy government to account.

What a rare breath of deliciously fresh air. Congratulations Hannah, Zack, everyone involved in defeating Reform's naked xenophobic authoritarianism with authentic humanist hope, not with Starmer's authoritarianism-lite. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
These two women are suing Andrew Tate, alleging he raped them. Here they visit the social media companies that created Tate. Please share.

First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped.
Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented.
Tell Keir Starmer to change this.

A crypto investor just donated £9 million to the Reform Party. Right now, billionaires can pour unlimited money into our elections, effectively buying our democracy. Think that's wrong? Add your name to call for a cap on donations today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...
The govt is refusing to commit to an inquiry into the MOD's contracts with US-based spy tech giant Palantir despite the web of shady connections between Mandelson, Epstein, and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel - this absolutely stinks.
This is the kind of chat that might actually work on voters tbh. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
