FLAWS

I like that there's been a large and often humourous backlash to that.

I agree: makes me cringe a bit but whatever works for people.

Those make me want to calmly remove a key part of my brain and shove it in a breville sandwich toaster.

I've never liked that term since I first heard it about 3-4 years ago. I tend to dislike any twee wordplay or intentional misspellings - like the Range Rover 'EVOQUE' 🤢

AI art does not exist. It is an oxymoron.

I've never been a fan. Partly because I don't like sticky things and partly because I don't like things that are part normal bread and part sweet.

Just left Sainsbury's in Denton. Still no class As on the shelves. Matt Goodwin LIED to us. 😡

The fact that Isabel Oakeshott, economic migrant to the UAE may just turn into a refugee fleeing to the UK from a war zone will cause a level of schadenfreude in me that may just make me topple right over.

Indeed: when I joined the Greens the first time around (I left to rejoin Labour after voting for Corbyn) him as leader via my Union membership), they immediately phoned me to ask if I would stand at the local elections. On a positive note, this didn't happen when I rejoined a couple of years ago.

I will never again think that Labour might do the right thing. There are a couple of people left who might but the longer they stay the less and less I think of them.

Like Sylvia says it depends on who is leader at the time: and that will be determined by the same people who will never let 2015 happen ever again.

Pretty much guaranteed that Labour would prefer a Reform government to a Green-led one and they'd sit back and let that happen. But their polling can definitely go lower.

Wow.

The Green Party aren't just in second place on 21%.

They are FIVE points ahead of Labour.

The Gorton and Denton by-election is convincing Labour voters the Greens aren't a wasted vote.

And they're just 2 points behind Reform!

We can't have economic migration into the UK but oh the poor "ex-pats".

It probably helps that the party is more or less all on the same wavelength and certainly doesn't spend its time trying to get one over on the party leader.

It's fascinating to watch cooler Labour heads like Sadiq Khan and Andy Burnham say that comparing the Greens and Reform together is a terrible tactic.

Yet Labour ministers are hourly on shows keeping up the same narrative.

The Green Party and Reform are completely the opposite!

🚨 NEW: Yougov poll this morning has the Greens surging into second place and Labour falling to fourth.

I don't deserve to be shouted at by your stupid dog just for walking past your house.

We get fobbed off with 1% EVERY SINGLE YEAR and then have to strike or threaten to strike to get the lowest paid more than that. We get about 1.5% at best.

Absolutely incredible.

Yvette Cooper (who backed the Iraq War) is asked what lessons we've learnt from Iraq

Cooper: ".. this threat from Iranian nuclear weapons"

Among other things Chilcot found the govt deliberately exaggerated the threat as a pretext for war

The govt are doing it all over again

The android app is always buggy. I often have to close the app and reopen it before I like or repost anything and by that point I've lost it.

Keir Starmer is giving the US permission to bomb Iran from Britain while retaining secrecy over the precise US military presence in the UK.

We believe these are the key US military/Intel sites in Britain, which include major air bases and smaller sites.

Starmer says his approval for the US to use British bases to bomb Iran is “permitted under international law” as “acting in the collective self-defence of regional allies”.

He condemns Iran’s retaliatory strikes but not the US/Israeli bombing of Iran.

I want city to win and for a bunch of their titles to be stripped off them but they're too rich for that to happen. So yeah, I'd prefer Arsenal to win but they're Arsenalling it at the moment.

This reminds me of that Frankie Boyle joke about how Americans not only come to your country and kill your people, they also come back twenty years later to make a movie about how killing your people made their soldiers sad.

We recently went to Copenhagen and got a train to southern Sweden. Everyone says those countries are expensive but the UK is so expensive now we literally didn't notice the difference. And it goes without saying their public transport is infinitely better and more affordable.

CMAT delivering, mar is gnách. 👏

(Same goes for sport btw)

Maybe matches shouldn't be played at such wonky hours for the benefit of TV. Until that changes, let's have stoppages for things like this 👍🏼

According to Sir Keir Starmer, the Greens do not have the activist base to mobilise thousands of people like they literally just did. Or something.
