Dear Lucy On the eve of the by-election, your Labour party spokesperson has admitted to the Huffington Post that a Labour party leaflet has been delivered through doors with your imprint recommending a vote for Labour by a tactical voting organisation which does not exist. This is deeply troubling, it is actually lying to voters. Did you approve this? Do you feel the Labour Party in government should be held to different standards in terms of honesty to the British public? In your last letter to me you mentioned your ‘very extensive data’ and ‘having spoken to over a third of eligible voters’ which led you to an understanding that the by election ‘was a contest between labour and Reform’. Clearly this latest development only tells voters one thing - you will employ any type of political deception (or in Urdu “Dhoka” ) to win. You will be very aware that all three real tactical voting organisations are recommending a vote for the Greens as the best way to stop Reform. Lying to the voters, as you have been caught doing, raises the real prospect that Reform will be the beneficiaries, something you have said that you don’t want. As this is such an important issue, for the sake of your own reputation, I would strongly urge you to apologise to the voters of Denton and Gorton before the polls open in the morning.” Kind regards, Zack Polanski Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales

Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social,

Why did you invent a fake tactical voting company to stop the Green Party beating Reform?

I'm starting to think your letters haven't always been in good faith...

Cancel local elections
Forcing National ID cards
Rolling out facial recognition
Fraud, Error & Recovery Bill
Removing Jury trials
And that’s just the highlights

Please keep telling us that Starmer’s Labour isn’t authoritarian

You can have a drugs policy based on evidence, best practice from around the world, speaking to clinicians, experts, drug users, their relatives and the police, like the Green Party.

Or you can have drugs policy based on the Daily Mail comments section, like Labour.

When the PM attacks the Greens on the eve of a major by-election, we know labour is in full panic mode!
They've lost any moral ground they had.
Tomorrow is a chance to make history, a real chance to change this entire country!
Vote Green!

So once again disabled individuals face this government targeting them in an attempt to strip support from those who need it. We know what happens when government's do this, we have seen it before. Disabled individuals are left to suffer.

Museums Is the UK's golden era of free museum entry coming to an end? 3h ago

Always be suspicious when the media uses the passive.

Free museum entry isn’t “coming to an end” on its own.

Some people have decided they want to take it away from us, & want us to think the decisions they are making are inevitable rather than choices by them. And journalists are helping them.

The Guardian, Labour’s client newspaper, is not just trying to pretend Labour is not losing to the Greens it now has a puff-piece about the Reform candidate.

Labour’s (& :. the Guardian’s) biggest nightmare is the Green Party winning, so the Labour establishment is now getting behind the fascists.

it's time to unite against fascism!

🧵 Labour marking their own homework, it looks like they're trying to cover up something.

Which they most probably are.

Like Zack Polanski I’ve never done drugs. But I learned that didn’t make me better than anyone else over twenty years ago. Labour needs to grow up.

Another half assed attempt at governing by Labour. Do the bare minimum needed and skirt around the big problem.

It's always too little and usually too late.

Green London assembly member Zoe Garbett: "We know that most people want to see an end to the genocide in Gaza"

Reporter, voiceover: "Israel denies accusations of genocide in Gaza"

Another ‘inquiry’ with so much Conflict of Interest’ that it becomes pointless from the start.

Good to know the “I’ll clean up politics” statement is another Starmer lie

Playgrounds would become crack dens if greens were in power policing minister says.

Drug deaths have risen every year for 13 years.

That’s 13 years of a failed “war on drugs”.

Labour should be looking at legalisation, control and regulation - not playing politics with people’s lives.

This is a public health crisis. Treat it like one. Not a game.

Dear Lucy Three weeks ago you wrote me a bizarre letter in an attempt to hold on to voters who Labour have for too long taken for granted in Gorton and Denton. First, I’d like to give my apologies for the delay in getting back to you. I've been busy on the ground with Hannah Spencer talking to voters about the issues that matter to them – lowering bills, protecting the NHS and rebuilding our public services. You'll appreciate most of your letter is out of date now, but I'm sure you'll have seen the poll that came out today, that puts us in first place and Reform in second. Labour are a distant third and it’s now clearer than ever that your party cannot win in Gorton and Denton. If you are as concerned about stopping Reform as you proposed in your letter, the course is now clear: in the spirit in which you wrote to me, you should now urge your members and former voters to back Hannah Spencer on the 26th February to stop Reform and make hope normal again. Kind regards, Zack Polanski Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales P.S – Hannah looks forward to saying hi in Parliament!

Dear Lucy Powell,

A response to your letter:

BBC bosses don't seem to care
their right-wing bias is getting
dangerously close to election criminality

"The Green Party have slated the BBC after it handed Reform UK their third Question Time slot in a row the week before a crucial by-election in England"
via The National Newspaper

Labour lost three council seats last night. 1 each to the Greens, Lib dems and Plaid. Reform were 2nd or 3rd in each.
The Greens also won and beat Reform in another local election.
So when they say vote Labour to stop Reform, they couldn't be more wrong. Vote almost anyone but Labour to beat Reform.

It's interesting watching the establishment media teeing-up their royalist panelists with interview 'questions' like "How well do you think the King has handled this?" - all to present an opportunity to try to distance Prince Andrew from the rest of the Royals.

This is not an exaggeration.

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

Nearly 100k people have joined our call to get dangerous US spy tech firm out of our NHS.

Palantir's founder has called for the NHS to be ripped up. Now his company has access to millions of patient records.

Tell the government to end the contract!

The largest group protected by the Equality Act is cis women. The far right has used “gender-critical” transphobes to attack the Equality Act. So the group principally responsible for women having their human rights removed it is these transphobes who claim to be “feminists” “protecting women”.

Ewww 🤮

DNA testing for potential to develop health conditions is sinister.
It's an attempt to quantify the risk for individual patients. But health advice is the same whatever your risk so knowing risk is no use to doctors or patients.
One industry that relies on understanding risk though is insurance.
