In the constituency, embittered labour campaigners have started their slow march into an "inevitable defeat." The wording comes from HQ themselves who are briefing journalists they don't expect to win m

Labour is briefing that they know they won't win the Gorton and Denton by election.

The Greens are favourites and are the only party that can stop Reform.

Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win.

Since 2016 the world has changed immeasurably. Even for those who believed in the lies told then, they can’t anymore:
We aren’t stronger alone; we can’t rely on the US to protect us; our biggest trading partner & ally is still the EU.

The UK belongs in the EU: always did; always will do.

Donald Trump is so obviously going to annex Greenland.

And European leaders will respond with unparalleled levels of "monitoring the situation".

Analysis suggests Trump taking over Venezuela isn’t really about oil. US don’t need oil and they could do deals to rectify what they believe is owed. This is about reigning supreme in the Western Hemisphere. When will the UK wake up to that fact and who we appear to be supporting? Madness.

Racial and religious hate crime on UK public transport is growing, data shows Anti-racism groups warn some people are avoiding public transport or limiting their use of it for fear of abuse

Racial and religious hate crime on UK public transport is growing, data shows.

Nurtured by Reform, Tories and Starmer's "Island of Strangers" speech. Scapegoating minorities for economic/political failures.

Without immigration, UK economy can't function.

As No.10 Tears Itself Apart, Are Labour Being Eaten By The Greens? “We all knew Zack would be great but I don’t think anyone thought it would be like this," a Green insider said.

Yes. Next question.

Homelessness figures higher than data suggests, research shows Official data for England underestimates the scale of the problem, according to research for charity Crisis says.

England homelessness grown by a fifth since 2022, now 300,000.

Successive govts cut local authority funding in real terms, cut real wages/benefits, no curbs on profiteering, lack of social housing.

Cheaper to build social housing than using temporary accommodation.

Misery is a political choice.

University tuition fees in England to rise with inflation every year from 2026 Bridget Phillipson confirmed the plans for the next two years, with fees to increase automatically after that.

University tuition fees in England to rise with inflation from 2026.

Student debt is £267bn, could double in a decade. Due to low wages unlikely to be repaid. Young people burdened.

Most European countries don't charge uni fees. England destroying social mobility. Must abolish tuition fees.

NHS could cease to function under Labour’s new visa rules, say nurses Exclusive: Royal College of Nursing says plan to tighten rules for foreign workers is ‘pandering’ to Reform UK

For shame. 😡

Zack Polanski’s response to the Manchester terror attack has been a masterclass in mature statesmanship.

Soulful, human, eloquent, empathetic, nuanced, confident and focused on healing.

And bold. It has shone in contrast to so much weaponising or ill thought through commentary.

Thank you Zack. 💪

What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country?

Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide.

It undermines police and the law.

Welfare reform 'must happen', says Pat McFadden The Work and Pensions Secretary tells the BBC he will press ahead with welfare system changes.

Welfare reform 'must happen', UK minister says.

Silence on corporate welfare. For example, Drax makes profits but gets subsidies.

Silence on tax perks of the rich. Capital gains and dividends taxed at lower rates than wages.

Welfare reform is a code for squeezing the poor, old, sick, disabled.

In December 1942, he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber.

Israeli President Herzog signed an artillery shell before it was fired into Gaza

He’s been named in the ICJ order which found Palestinians at “imminent risk” of genocide

Today Starmer is rolling out the red carpet for him - instead he should be arrested for war crimes

Israel appears to be destroying high-rise buildings as part of its displacement efforts and aims to conquer Gaza city. Israeli law prof Eliav Lieblich comments: "17 years in the field and I haven't seen a 'state of law' that conducts itself like this. There isn't a millimetre of legality here."

Tactical voting will definitely still be required to keep out Reform at the next GE, wherever our individual preferences and allegiances lay.
I’m simply saying @zackpolanski.bsky.social & @greenparty.org.uk are a force for good… and where my political thoughts and ideals are now most suited.

“and let me leave you with this thought - the ECHR has also protected British people from abuses of power by its own government..”

The Great British fear factory: manufacturing a lawless London Reform UK’s “Britain is Lawless” campaign isn’t about making us safer – it’s about manufacturing fear for political gain

Crime is roughly half what it was in the 90s. Britain is still one of the safest countries in the developed world.

So why does Reform want you to think London’s a hellscape? The Bear provides the answer ⤵️

When people use what I do for a profession to counter any opinions I might have about other worldly events… you know you’ve won.

Not one Al Jazeera journalist left…

All systematically murdered by a regime desperate to conceal the truth

And while many of their western counterparts and media figures (who are safe and salaried) choose silence and complicity.

Only part of an adult, standing next to the child and dressed in a light-colored outfit, is visible on the left side of the frame. The background shows a nondescript, blurry outdoor setting.

12 August 1941 | A French Jewish girl, Annie Nakache, was born in Constantine (Algeria). She lived in Toulouse. A daughter of a swimmer Alfred Nakache.

In January 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz with her parents. She was murdered in a gas chamber with her mother Paule.

As we watch Keir Starmer and his team expand NHS privatisation, please remember that he was elected to become Labour leader saying specifically that he would remove NHS private outsourcing. He then quietly dropped this pledge in Summer 2022.

This isn’t OK 🚨

Disgusting.

This Govt defends the arms industry at all costs - distracting from the inequality destroying our democracy, shattering what little trust remains - while a genocide rages.

Starmer. Lammy. Cooper.

We are watching.

Take a bow, girls! 👏🏆

In all but name: is Gaza Britain’s undeclared war? Britain isn’t just watching Gaza burn – it’s helping fuel the fire, with weapons, intelligence, and silence

The UK govt is deeply complicit in the Gaza genocide.

This article powerfully documents it all.

Do read and share. 👇

Letters from the rubble of Gaza: Part Three "Open the crossings immediately, bring in food and medicine. Stop this slow massacre. Save our children from starving to death! History will not forgive you for your failure.!"

“Today they bombed the place with a belt of fire, which led to the collapse of all the tents in the place from the force of the explosion, and stones were thrown at us. Some people are trapped under the rubble and we cannot get them out, both the living and the dead."
