👏👏. Somewhat disingenuous of her to claim otherwise.

She's certainly a far better candidate than the one airdropped in by Reform - who are currently being investigated for electoral fraud in the G&D election campaign - from miles away.

McSweeney can and should take responsibility for his advice.

Starmer should take responsibility for following that advice, which brings into question his sound judgement when making decisions based on advice given.

So far his appointments of McSweeney, Mandelson and a few others don't bode well.

We absolutely can afford a UBI, and we do need it, regardless of any impacts AI ends up having.

The cost of UBI is its net cost, not its gross cost. If you get $15k and pay $7k higher taxes as part of the deal, that cost is $8k not $15k.

Try calculating the costs of not doing UBI. Include fascism.

This is what politics should feel like: thoughtful, honest and shaking things up.

Hannah Spencer is going to be a brilliant MP for Gorton & Denton.

It's time to stop Reform in their tracks:

Watch online this Wednesday.

Reform have plans to privatise healthcare - there's not many in Gorton and Denton who can afford those costs.

As for public services, look at areas where Reform are already in control - more flags doesn't count as a public service.

Toxic gases killed the canary.

McSweeney admitting Labour is as dangerous as any toxic gas.

Zack Polanski on Mandelson scandal: “He knew. And still appointed him.” Calls it necessary but not enough. “Starmer needs to go.” Direct challenge to Labour leadership.

Zack Polanski - Definitely the leader to watch! One to believe in and to truest. A different form of politics that is so life-enhancing!

At the top, white text reads “Bradford District Green Party.” Over the image is a Guardian-style headline graphic with The Guardian logo and the headline: “‘Am I at peak popularity? I hope not’: on the road with Zack Polanski, from protest to podcast to Heaven nightclub.” At the bottom is a green banner reading “join.greenparty.org.uk” alongside the Green Party Bradford District logo.

🗞 The Guardian: "Polanski is hoping to win a seat at the next general election. What about taking on Starmer in Holborn and St Pancras? “Well, that could clearly go Green,” he says with a mischievous smile." " 😀 💚

Starmer's words mean nothing without due recourse.

Happy #SocialistSunday everyone. Only one way to beat Reform at the #GortonDentonByElection and that’s by voting for the Green Party and Hannah Spencer. A vote for Labour will enable Reform. #VoteGreen #HopeIsHere #bbclaurak #trevorphillips

The part I like the most is when the least popular PM since records began refuses to show his face to help his candidate win (that's how much confidence he has in her) and how Labour considers the Greens a threat but not Reform (who shout their policies and Labour implements them)

Gives a whole new meaning to 'red flags flying here'. Alongside man of 'integrity', who knew the Oxford dictionary had redefined the meaning.

McFadden says Mandelson should give any money from being sacked to charity

A reminder McFadden once claimed £40,000 on expenses for renting a home in his constituency despite owning the home next door (which he rented out & pocketed the cash). What did you do with that £, Pat?

🟢 Bradford Greens are in Gorton and Denton today to help get Hannah Spencer elected as the North's first Green MP.

💚 Greens can beat Labour and stop Reform. Let's do this!!!

''The battle for the soul of our nation'
It's Greens vs. Reform in the Gorton and Denton by election- we plan to show Reform the door.

Justice delayed, is justice denied.

Thanks so much to everyone who helped us today 🐝💚

Hundreds out in person and many people phonebanking from across the country 💪

‘Am I at peak popularity? I hope not’: on the road with Zack Polanski, from protest to podcast to Heaven nightclub With polls and membership at an all-time high, the Green party are having a moment – and it’s largely down to their charismatic (if slightly cheesy) new leader. Can he really pull off a socialist revo...

From Heaven to Palantir HQ, from Yorkshire to our Bold Politics studio - great to have legendary journalist Simon Hattenstone follow me around.

Here's what he saw in his report:

www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

A minister added "if we do come third the PM is in trouble.,

Yet again a Labour minister lets the cat out of the bag. They are expecting to come third in Gorton and Denton.

Only the Green Party can stop Reform.

Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win.

Why Labour should be more afraid of @greenparty.org.uk winning elections than Reform (Former Conservatives) is because they know Reform will be even worse than they are and people will jump back to Labour quite quickly.

Whereas Green Party will be an improvement and people will stay with them.

Green leader Polanski calls for Starmer to quit over Mandelson scandal Zack Polanski said the Peter Mandelson scandal had damaged trust in politics.

It's time for Keir Starmer to do the right thing and step down.

"Money was disappearing fast over last nine months of Maxwell’s life. To what extent he still had money was impossible to find, because it was offshore, in Liechtenstein, and all that.”

Photograph of Hannah Spencer and Zack Polanski smiling at a Green Party campaign event, taking a selfie with supporters behind them holding green placards. A green overlay covers the lower half of the image. At the top, white text reads “Bradford District Green Party.” A BBC-style headline graphic says: “Green leader urges ‘hope over hate’ for by-election.” At the bottom is a green banner with the text “join.greenparty.org.uk” and the Green Party Bradford District logo.

🗣 @zackpolanski.bsky.social: "The Green Party are the only party who can stop Reform and to have the Labour Party trying to wade in, trying to make themselves relevant, demonstrates what a difficult week they've had and what a difficult year they've had since gaining power."

Finally, a decent article about Zack Polanski from the mainstream media. Worth a read.

“'But I think ultimately this whole sorry affair demonstrates how broken our political system is, how we have politicians who have taken money from private healthcare, from oil and gas companies, from arms trade companies, from gambling companies."

Trump said “If you’re innocent, why are you taking the 5th Amendment?”

Ghislaine Maxwell is due to appear virtually before the House Oversight Committee on Monday, February 9, 2026 next Monday, she has stated she will invoke the 5th Amendment.

You see how it works?
