Shouldn’t Mandelson be prosecuted if he lied in his vetting for an important government position?

@zackpolanski.bsky.social and @greenparty.org.uk surge in popularity is a huge contributor to Labour’s internal conflict. The Greens have effectively proven the public demand for left-wing politics and proven Starmer was mad to shift right. The Greens have successfully pulled politics left.👏

One benefit of Reform in the UK is that many of my friends are realising that it’s not good enough to be passive about politics anymore. Reform may have radicalised a bunch of conservatives, but they’ve also mobilised many lefties to actually get out there. Most people recognise the genuine threat.

President Lee of South Korea just blasted the Korea Chamber of Commerce & Industry for spreading “fake news” about millionaires leaving the country.

Sound familiar? That’s because it was based on the same junk stats used to scare the UK public away from wealth taxes.

The daft thing is that with Proportional Representation there'd be no need for this self-destructive war within Labour. It could split into its component parts - left and right - and people could vote for what they wanted. It's only First-Past-the-Post that forces these irreconcilables together.

Absolutely

Reform faces police investigation over ‘concerned neighbour’ byelection letters Material distributed in Gorton and Denton did not have legally required imprint stating it was funded by party

Reform are breaking electoral laws and they’ll keep doing it until they get punished. They’ll accuse the government of political persecution, but they do that anyway! If they commit crime they need to be punished.

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Glad to see so many countries starting to regulate social media for children, it’s taken too long. It won’t be long until we do the same in the UK. After that we need to regulate it for adults—too many are being radicalised by misinformation and disinformation.

I've seen loads of these trolls. Reform clearly spending their crypto money on bots.

Farage's troll army are rattled by the Green candidate in Gorton and Denton.

They've claimed Hannah Spencer isn't actually a plumber.

She's here to put the record straight!

We reported on a protest in Manchester over new visa rules that put migrant nurses at risk of deportation for earning just £60 below the salary threshold.

This week, there's a rare piece of good news. One of the nurses we spoke to - has secured a pay rise, allowing her to stay in the UK.

Farage rejects Polanskis request for tv debate as Gorton byelection heats up

Hannah Spencer for the win.

The Sunday Times Tax List dropped & we’ve got a couple questions…

Why did only 100 people pay more than £11m in tax when the UK has 156 billionaires?

Why are some worth £10bn+ still paying less than £11m?

& why does Ed Sheeran always make the list?

Lets find out...🧵1/10

The Gorton & Denton by-election is set to take place on 26 February and Your Party missed this morning's 10:00 deadline to nominate a candidate.

Many members have expressed frustration given that there was interest from within the party to stand.

Zack Polanski challenges Nigel Farage to show down debate.

Let's talk about who funds Reform.

A success today for workers in Birmingham as bin depots were closed after the ‘Megapicket 3D’ a meeting of trade unionists from across the country to highlight over a year of bin strikes.

Sweden was once seen as a global model for equality and strong living standards. But after abolishing its wealth tax, inequality grew sharply - and the country is now increasingly viewed as a haven for the super-wealthy, while working and middle-class living standards have suffered.

Why is Rory Stewart obsessed with arguing deregulation and austerity will save us? After nearly 20 years I would’ve thought he’d have somewhat shifted his stance. Utterly detached from public opinion, despite his insistence that he’s not class blind.

It tells you everything you need to know that Reform are parachuting in a rent-an-extremist - this isn't about representing the people of Gorton and Denton, it's about using this place as a platform for their careers.

Manchester will show him the door.

This requires action from the people. Even if politicians have the best interests of the people, they’ll be unable to achieve the change we need without public mobilisation and demands. Without public outcry and action, politicians will struggle to enact any urgent policy.
