Project 2025: The UK Edition (Part 2) A Cambridge academic, a YouTube influencer, and Reform UK’s old HQ - the ingredients for our own Project 2025 are already mixed.

No conspiracy theory. It’s happening in plain sight. open.substack.com/pub/iratusur...

Don’t crush our right to protest! The right to protest is the heartbeat of democracy. It lets us speak out, challenge injustice, and hold those in power accountable. The Government’s plan would give police sweeping powers to ban repea...

😡 The Government wants to ban repeated protests & jail those who defy them. Stand up for our democratic right to protest - sign the petition now! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/do...

Articulate, confident. The Greens are riding high. Dare we hope? Gosh we SO need a dose of positivity!!

Loved this short film by @owenjones.bsky.social.

My biggest takeaway is how much talent there is in @greenparty.org.uk Brilliant, kind, smart, articulate people making change.

Absolutely time to harness that energy and scale us up massively.

Let's do this! 💚

"We're fighting fires everywhere, and that's exactly how the right wants us... We have a responsibility to stand up and say that we are here because we value all human life."

What???

So much for the BBC lack of bias, while Chris Mason was salivating all over the Reform conference. A change of BBC leadership is seriously overdue.

🚨🚨 "The ECHR is not some foreign imposition that curtails our sovereignty. It was born of British leadership after the horrors of the Second World War, drafted with heavy British influence, and championed by Winston Churchill himself". Great stuff by Sir Robert Buckland KC:

Goodall: a smugly-aggressive interview manner. Polenski: sound, balanced, calm, fact-based rejoinders. That is real style.

🚨🚨Excellent piece by Ian Dunt pinpointing the slow gradual realisation (oh it really took some time for some politicians) even in Labour and Starmer team that #brexit is a disaster: "Who on earth could claim that #brexit has been a success? Who would name a single benefit it has provided"?

We can't tax billionaires, because they might take their tax avoidance to another country. But we can drive out brilliant people who do much-needed work, contribute to our society and culture, pay tax, create jobs, and have done nothing wrong. That's fine, apparently.

If something’s not working, you should stop it | Robert Hutton | The Critic Magazine “If something’s not working, you should stop it.” Say what you like about Kemi Badenoch, no one can match her when it comes to giving a straight-faced delivery of a self-undermining line.

"If something's not working..." my SKETCH of the unassailably, frankly unreasonably confident Kemi Badenoch.

The Israeli government's planned hosting of Tommy Robinson is a reprehensible betrayal of Jewish values and history.

Robinson is a racist street thug. He is no friend of British Jews.

We must never permit the far-right to exploit antisemitism to attack Muslims.

Good to discuss on i24News.

I know this is obvious when you think about it but we don’t think about it enough: fascists have to cow & persecute decent journalists to prevent them from reporting exactly what they, the fascists, are doing. Fascist-adjacent ‘journalists’ help by insisting that we shouldn’t call fascists facsists.

This is spot on. The only I would add is that this spiral of madness is being turbocharged by a national media that is also increasingly unhinged and vastly exaggerates the public demand for these policies. Westminster is trapped in its own reactionary bubble.

The Trump Action Tracker is a British academic’s answer to Trump “flooding the zone” with anti-democratic and anti- rule of law behaviours.

It’s a one-stop-shop for logging thd lot. And the neta-analysis of what is happening is very enlightening… darkly.

Fascism is winning. This is scary stuff. open.substack.com/pub/bylinesu...

YouTube video by Richard J Murphy What is fascism really about?

Fascism is an ideology that divides humanity into “superior” and “inferior” groups — with catastrophic consequences. In this video, I explain what fascism really means, why its essence is exclusion, and why true democracy depends on equality and respect for all. youtu.be/H7pjd_G3088?...

Has Labour woken up? New post on my Brexit & Brexitism Blog analysing how Starmer’s Labour seems to be taking a firmer line with Reform and Brexitism, rattling Farage, but many ambiguities and contradictions remain:
chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2025/10/has-...

A superb and thorough analysis. Chris Grey is a must for anyone seeking a sound and factual opinion about Brexit, post-Brexit and the far right - and much more.

7 ICE agents in formation, with 2 clowns in formation behind them, while 5 clowns stand in formation less than 10 feet to their left.

Dang, #Portland! You SLAY!

Portland is showing these ICE clowns just how ridiculous they really are.

Notice the two joining the formation at the back. 😂
