@zackpolanski.bsky.social This is my seat. Labour knocked yesterday and claimed only they could beat Reform. My wife argued this and said Green data showed they were closest challenger. Labour knocker continued to lie and their leaflet showed 2024 data. Don’t vote Labour. They are liars.

Man arrested under Terrorism Act in Glasgow after displaying Palestine sign A man has been arrested in Glasgow after displaying a sign allegedly showing support for a proscribed terror organisation

This is not terrorism.
We are being silenced nothing to do with their proscription of Palestine Action.
When a government/police force arrest you for standing against Genocide society's fucked

" (ICJP) has written to a local police authority & UK Home Secretary, demanding a formal investigation as to why a woman was threatened with arrest on terror charges for holding up anti-genocide signs, after rejecting that she supported proscribed organisations when asked."

We found that Reform's plans to attack renewable energy industries could wipe £92bn off the UK economy and destroy 60,000 jobs by the end of the decade.

These plans would damage our economic health and the health of our climate. 1/2

If anyone who is arrested wants to get in touch we would love to help.

"Alan, don't lie on TV where people can factcheck you. Which Israeli soldier was prosecuted for dropping a grenade on a child?"

My challenge to Dershowitz to come back on Piers Morgan's show & name these Israelis he falsely claims have been prosecuted.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

London heatwave. Those underground stations in full:

From the latest Private Eye, out now.

Screenshot of a headline which says "'Profound concern' as scientists say extreme heat 'now the norm' in UK", with a subtitle that reads "Increasing frequency of heatwaves and flooding raises fears over health, infrastructure and how society functions."

Scary to see extreme heat become the norm in the UK - this will cost more and more lives.

What is govt doing to protect us from these effects of climate change that are already with us?

And how can they justify giving go-ahead to airport expansion which will worsen the crisis?

HOUSES RAIDED

Police in South Wales have raided this woman’s house after she held a cardboard sign stating that she opposes genocide outside the BBC Cymru HQ yesterday. She was arrested alongside 12 others at this location, and 70 others across the UK. News of more raids, too.

All those private healthcare donors watching Wes cash in on their investment.

"No money left" is a political fiction used to protect the super rich from fair taxes.

Rather than take different political choices, Health Secretary is acting like an influencer for privatisation.

Incontrovertible evidence, now, of *police* investigating families supporting their kids with gender affirming healthcare in the UK. For trying to do the best for your child, following best practice in most of the world, here you get a visit from the police.

Thank you, Wes Streeting.

Heat Waves Endanger Data Centers That Power AI A new analysis warns that AI facilities could be forced to stop operating because of water shortages and blackouts

If there is ever justice, one day as members of the Israeli Government stand in court facing charges of genocide, certain UK ministers will stand there right beside them. That day, they won't be grinning.

Screenshot of a headline reading "Israeli plan for forced transfer of Gaza's population 'a blueprint for crimes against humanity"', with subheading reading "Military ordered to turn ruins of Rafah into 'humanitarian city' but experts call the plan an internment camp for all Palestinians in Gaza"

Absolutely horrific. We are watching ethnic cleansing and genocide happening in broad daylight, in real time. Our govt has a duty to prevent genocide - and yet is still selling arms to Israel. The UK's complicity must end.

In case you missed it, the government is now overruling the outcome of local referendums in Bristol and Sheffield, imposing its opinion on how local councils should work, directly against the democratically expressed will of those communities themselves.

If I had said this last year, that Trump would try and deport US citizens in his first year, all Republicans and a nontrivial number of liberals and centrists would have attacked me for behind hyperbolic, and fear-mongering, and of having Trump Derangement Syndrome.

And yet:

Deputy PM Angela Rayner says the vote on the Labour government's UC & PIP cuts for disabled people next Tuesday IS going ahead.

So the big question is - will all the Labour rebels who signed the amendment against these cuts hold their nerve? Greens will.

Last night Zohran won the primary.

Today two former Labour councillors have now joined the Green Party.

Huge welcome - hope is in the air: join.greenparty.org.uk 💚🙌🏼

Downing Street says the move is "the biggest strengthening of the UK's nuclear posture in a generation".

We say no more war.

Today, I asked the Deputy PM if she would support an independent inquiry into the UK's complicity in Israeli war crimes.

She refused to answer.

Just like Iraq, the government is doing everything it can to shield itself from scrutiny. Just like Iraq, it will not succeed in hiding the truth.

I am old enough to recall as far back as 2018 when Cooper sported a suffragette rosette. A reminder that the suffragettes, unlike Palestine Action, actually planted bombs and destroyed property.

Ask your MP to show their support for a people-first future for our water! We can make our water work for people - not shareholders - but water lobbyists are working hard to shut this solution down. Will you make sure your MP hears about it?

82% of us want water in public hands - but private water lobbyists are doing everything they can to shut it down.

On 7th July, your MP can hear the alternative from the People’s Commission on Water.

Will you ask them to attend? actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...
