Video Feeds Pin and/or like any of these feeds if you like their content

Given the influx of users from TikTok to Skylight, I thought a list of good video feeds was in order.

It’s past midnight and I did this from mobile — will update with more tomorrow after I make slides for my committee mtg 💀🥲

I think Transactual put it best (in reference to the girl guides) and now Labour too:

"There is no problem being solved here, only harm being done."

All to appease the right, who hate them anyway - shame on them.

Zohran Mamdani's victory and the case for hope Could his election spur a similar movement in the UK?

While Starmer's Labour has shifted to the right, the membership of the Green Party under Zack Polanski grows. Much like Mamdani, Polanski campaigns on an explicitly socialist agenda that is down-to-earth and compelling, unlike the cyborg-like communications of the Labour party.
Polanski pushes a wealth tax, affordable housing and free childcare - striking similar to Mumdani.
It's hard to find hope at a time when environmental protections are being destroyed, a war has decimated Gaza, and the far right is never too far away. Mamdani may be the new mayor of New York, but Trump is still the president of the United States and has threatened to withhold federal funding to the city. But what Mamdani's victory shows us is that the elite don't always win, and the politics of pessimism is failing - at least on the streets of New York. That, for a short while, should allow a brief moment of hope.

Reform were polling at 15% on 3rd July last year. They became 1st by end of April this year. That’s 10 months.

Today @greenparty.org.uk are at 15%. My guess: we can reach 1st place by August next year at the earliest.

It should be illegal for the civil service to use AI for the purpose of not listening or directly responding to us.

The elections are not a representative sample of the wider UK. Still glad to see Reform lose ofc.

Please could you plot the membership numbers from when Zack became Deputy Leader to now? Especially marking when Zack announced his candidacy for Leader and when he was elected also? 🙏

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian.

Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference.

Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say?
