I do agree that the Green Party seems to be interviewed with so much more hostility than anyone else.

I used to be a fan of Streeting but like Starmer, Cooper & others, being in power has changed them & their beliefs.
His NHS dealings are worrying, yet he's probably the only potential candidate to replace Starmer. No thanks, it would just be more of the same.
Maybe itβs you thatβs wrong, Wes.
Maybe youβre just not appealing to anyone much.
Youβre not convincing Reform voters but, in pandering to them, youβre pissing everyone else off.
Progressives have had a decade of being scorned and ignored. Donβt criticise us for minding and doing something about it.
Would that be the same Lucy Powell that said 2 days ago that it was going to be a "close race" & she was "feeling confident"?
Is anyone still trusting her judgement?

Govt can't have a serious policy on immigration if it won't say what a sustainable level might be, nor process of how it decides that
Delivering net emigration by mistake in 2026 while insisting they must drive numbers much lower shows lack of any immig planning process as much as 2019-24 spike did

βThe regulator is in too close a relationship with the water companies. They are being funded from the money the water companies pay for their permitsβ
Donβt we expect our regulators to be independent and work to protect us?

It would seem you don't comment on politics often. Now I can see why. You don't know what you're talking about. I would stick to crafting if I was you.

A result of over 40% shows that polling deeply underestimated the frustration people feel with Starmer and their general disgust at Reform. The two party system is over for good

Terrible night for Labour. When a party loses the trust of thousands of its own voters in its heartlands, thatβs not an aberration but a stark warning.
Just as in Caerphilly last year, this result proves voters are willing to break the mould when they donβt feel heard.
It's about time all parties got together to inform the uneducated that all our country's problems has not & never will be, the fault of immigrants.
It's about the greed of our politicians, along with their millionaire & billionaire backers.
It's why we need a #WealthTax & to #TaxTheRich.
Proving conclusively that they see foreign residents - even those of long standing - as 2nd class citizens that don't deserve the same rights as British nationals.
So much for human rights.
Ain't that the truth!

Remember Frexit, Grexit? All lies. No clamouring to leave the EU but instead a clamouring to join.
Brexit was a lesson to other countries not to be so stupid!

Exactly. Why is Westminster the only parliament that does NOT have a type of proportional representation?
FPTP is not for for purpose. Labour now standing in the way of enacting it after backing it not too long ago
Funny how power alters the perspective isnβt it!

Once again - UK involvement in 'Made in Europe' is about a 5th order issue compared to the huge debate ongoing in the EU about whether to remain an open economy or not. French protectionism is meeting heavy resistance, and the UK does not play in this debate. www.politico.eu/article/made...

Rather raises the question as to whether Labour bother to seek out legal advice before coming up with toxic new proposals that affect (checks notes) human rights.
Didn't Starmer used to work on high profile civil liberties cases? Whatever happened to him?
