This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

BREAKING: The Late Show With Stephen Colbert portrays JD Vance.

“We heard that JD Vance loves a good-natured, funny meme, so we made one just for him!”

I'm choosing to believe this is actual footage and not 'AI'

For the first time ever, London has met legal limits for nitrogen dioxide.

When I became Mayor, we were told it would take 193 years. We did it 184 years earlier than expected.

Cleaner air means a healthier city and big savings for the NHS.

Hugged a self-described racist jailed for inciting racial hatred at his party conference.
Threatened to ‘don khaki’ in the event of Brexit being frustrated.
Disseminated the racist lies of an alleged rapist & stayed silent as racists responded by setting fire to buildings full of foreigners.

The truth: we need migration.

The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it.

Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality.

Reject it. Draw the line.

I of course welcome the recognition of the state of Palestine.

And there won't be a Palestinian state left if government's continue enabling Israel's unfolding genocide.

Labour can't credibly support Palestinian statehood whilst also continuing to arm Israel.

Projections of U.S. President Donald Trump, Britain's Prince Andrew and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were put on display against the walls of Windsor Castle while Trump was in Britain for a state visit.

Police hurt during Tommy Robinson's Unite the Kingdom rally in London Some 25 arrests are made after

Yes but they're not terrorists though. It's not like any of them were pensioners armed to the teeth with cardboard signs.

Nepal’s first female prime minister was sworn in Friday as interim leader, capping a tumultuous week that saw massive and deadly youth-led protests against corruption and nepotism topple the country’s leader and plunge the nation into political turmoil.

So powerfully put - and terrifyingly accurate. We no longer hear the truth, because the truth is deeply inconvenient & because it poses a direct challenge to vested interests - and as a result, our lurch towards climate catastrophe accelerates

Kemi Badenoch's 'Free Speech' Conservatives Ban Byline Times From Party Conference The ban on covering the party's annual gathering came despite Badenoch's repeated commitment to "fight" for free speech and a free press

So Kemi Badenoch's Conservatives, who have repeatedly pledged to fight for "free speech" and a free press have just banned me and Byline Times from attending their conference.

Has never happened before under any previous leader

The final phase of largest-ever expansion of publicly funded childcare support has begun in England, as thousands of working parents receive more help with their nursery costs.
Those eligible are now able to get 30 hours of free childcare per week during term-time for their children aged 9 mths-4yrs

Let’s celebrate the real England England is not the far-right fringe - it's a nation of compassion, protest, and progress. The people show who we are

"There are those out there who submit to the false narrative, peddled by politicians and media alike, that the far-right xenophobes that exist on the fringes of English politics somehow represent the entire nation.

...The truth, however, could not be any more different."

Many migrants are fleeing homophobic persecution. As a gay man, you would hope he would have more sympathy. Perhaps if he remembers his passport he should take a break in Iran. He may find they hang more than just their countries flag from lampposts.

Well isn’t this lovely.

Opera star sings Habanera (from Carmen) in the airport (?)

What a terrific voice.

I don’t care if they’re staged, we need more profl free public #music and #art.

It's just a school of fish following a duck.

FFS - ignoring them doesn’t make them go away. And the vacuum is filled by ever more angry bile. Farage needs to be challenged at every step - the snake oil salesman who promised leaving the EU would “give us back control” (that went well) now promising that leaving the ECHR will do the same…

“If I said I was wearing a Palestine Action T-shirt would you get here quicker?”

UK falling behind EU on environmental rules amid post-Brexit rollback Exclusive: Labour ministers choosing to weaken green protections inherited from the bloc, analysis reveals

5 years after Brexit, it’s shamefully clear that UK is being left behind on environment policy. With few exceptions, Govt has *deliberately* chosen not to keep up with standards of EU neighbours. Worse, in a number of areas they’re planning to actively go backwards @ieep.eu

"You're sat there saying 'oh, please think of the billionaires'.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social lays out the need to tax the super-rich properly on GMB.

Reform just tell people whatever they think you want to hear.

And of course that includes former Tory Ministers turned Reform.

We must hold them to account.

Every. Single. Time.

Screenshot of BBC news saying police arrest 474 people at Palestine Action ban protest.

What an utter absurdity our Home Secretary has created -

Destroying British free speech, right to protest and with it undermining democracy.

It is not for the government to terrorise the public for political opinions they don’t want to hear.

"What we should really do is go after the property developers."

@greenjennyjones.bsky.social responds to the prospect of councils flogging off allotments on Good Morning Britain.

Absolute madness to sell off allotments which directly help with rising cost of living, food insecurity, climate, mental + physical health

Tell Angela Rayner: End austerity, fund councils properly, STOP SELLING OFF ALLOTMENTS 🥦🧅🍓🫛🍅🥕🍏🥔👩‍🌾👨‍🌾

New Zealand government votes to bring back fossil fuel exploration in major reversal Ruling right-wing coalition votes to reverse ban, a move it believes will alleviate energy shortages and high prices

Your 'moment of doom' for July 31, 2025 ~ End times.

"New Zealand’s government has voted to resume oil and gas exploration despite an outcry from the opposition and environmental groups who argue the reversal will lay waste to the country’s climate credentials."

Green Party members - vote at midday!

Tackle inequality, defend nature and stand firm against the far right.

Vote for me #1 for Bold Leadership.
