Listen to this 13 year old who went to her city's council meeting.

She had some things she needed to get off her chest

Final weekend. One last push.

This is about whether you want local plumber Hannah Spencer or the extreme Reform candidate.

It's hope vs hate.

It's Greens vs Reform.

Hope can win.

Israel demolishes the HQ of a UN agency in Jerusalem, and the UK government's response is to "condemn", "urge", "reiterate", and "call on" Israel.

With no sanctions or policy changes.

Nice one, Lyndsey. I hadn't seen this petition. Signed and shared.

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

Dear Gorton & Denton,

Something you might want to hear...

Poverty is not real.
You should not be allowed to work from home.
Minimum wage is a bad idea.
Women need to stay at home and have kids.
Migrant workers are the problem.

I don’t know guys. It seems like Reform might not represent the working class at all?

The only thing I didn't buy was that - clever or not - it should have been destroyed by the 'action' in the last act - even with other people 'there' at the time. Wow, so hard not to put spoilers anywhere there! If you've seen it, you know what i mean. I loved the film except for that one detail.

If only the entire Democratic Party spoke every single day the way Jamie Raskin is speaking to Pam Bondi right now.

Raskin to Bondi: "You're not showing a lot interest in the victims. Whether it's Epstein's human trafficking ring or the homicidal government violence against citizens in Minneapolis, as AG you're siding with the perpetrators and ignoring the victims."

Reform politicians are happy to throw insults from a distance.

But when it comes to debating their ideas? No show.

Richard Tice pulled out.
Farage won’t face me.
Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer.

Vote Green.

And Peter Mandelson played a huge part in destroying that hope.

Like many here, I enjoyed the set up and the acting was terrific but the story went nowhere. it wasn't a patch on 'The House of the Devil' from a couple of years prior. The latter is a highly effective film which delivers throughout and stays with you.

This is complete, self-serving fiction. The Trump-Epstein friendship didn't end over raping young girls. That is *why* it existed in the first place. It ended over, more predictably, money. Donald outbid Epstein on property Epstein had told Donald he was interested in. Epstein never forgave Trump.

We should be mindful that even people sharing our own political views can spread lies and propaganda.It's damaging to our cause. It infects every interaction with them.

It's best to cut them off. Have nothing to do with such people
