He should start doing the Farage trick of weekly press conferences and expect the BBC to give equal coverage to that given to Farage.

If I was @zackpolanski.bsky.social, I would be pointing out to the BBC that whatever model they use to justify giving Farage & his boot-lickers season tickets for every BBC show under the sun must surely now treat Green Party politicians in exactly the same way. Might even be one for the lawyers...

The modus operandi of 'Conservatives' whether authoritarian or liberal, is to wreck institutions and regulation in order to steal taxpayers money through fraud corruption or just plain larceny. They are the scum of the earth.

If itโ€™s true Reform UKโ€™s Treasury spokesperson Robert Jenrick told a business audience last night that renewable companies are "screwed" if Reform get in, it tells you everything about their readiness to inflict national self-harm in pursuit of ideological war on climate action.

Government agencies can now track the location of your phone at scale, in real time, and without a warrant, using ad tech.

Absolutely terrifying.

Why are they getting another pay rise ? Furious about this too.

Of course he can. The Spanish government did. He merely lacks the cojones. I was cautiously optimistic over the line he took, but remain wary as he's lied over British military involvement aiding Israel before.

โ€ฆ..but for totally different reasons! I agree that we should be defending our military bases overseas, but I donโ€™t think we should be allowing Trump to use UK bases to wage an illegal war.

Well, they donโ€™t want to withdraw from NATO - check their webpage.
We should be focusing on renewable energy - nuclear is extortionate to build and the waste problem has never been resolved. But extreme? Communism is extreme. The things you mention have been debated by moderate people for decades.

Really? ๐Ÿค” I thought the Left were all for helping Trump and Netanyahu at all, whereas the Right wanted us to be their allies and give them whatever they want. Seems quite different to me.

Why do you think the Greens are โ€˜extremeโ€™? They seem like fairly moderate Social Democrats to me, with a focus on social justice and the environment. They seem to have much in common with the Lib Dems. Itโ€™s just that Labour, Tories and Reform are so far to the right of everybody else.

Apart from the other toilet paper bullshit, this is such an obvious payoff by the Tories: they call the PM - Starmer and the Tory dimwit Badenoch - Kemi.

Disgraceful attack by Starmer and Shelbrooke on @mothinali.bsky.social a man of peace

Is Alec Shelbrooke aware that there's been a strong Jewish presence in the Leeds Saturday marches for Palestine and in Women in Black, founded by women in Jerusalem, who hold vigils every Tuesday in Dortmund Sq.?

Letโ€™s face it - Starmerโ€™s not afraid to embarrass Starmer.

Is it because he says he disapproves of the war which is illegal, but he let the US use UK bases for it anyway? Not very sure what his position is! Seems to me you might as well just join in if youโ€™re helping them to kill schoolchildren and civilians anyway.

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!

I hope so, but it could just be an aberration. It was humiliating to see such a senior lawyer toadying up to a 34-times convicted felon in the first place.

Indeed. Is it cynical to say theyโ€™re both only doing this to keep their leaders out of court? We were told the nuclear capability was destroyed last year.
