Anyone here know how I can get in touch with either Xlaire Keegan or Cillian Murphy? "Small Things Like These" is out in Swdden soon and I'm doing a few things to help raise awareness of it

Team cleanup! πŸ’š

Today Majority members and local Greens teamed up to clear fly-tipped rubbish in Shiremoor - removing bottles, cans, vapes, furniture and even a plastic Xmas tree! 🌲

Working together we can clean up our streets AND clean up our politics!

The Caerphilly by-election shows Reform is beatable - and Labour is finished The Caerphilly by-election has exposed the fact that it is the Labour Party now splitting the vote - and they should stand down

My take on the Caerphilly by-election. Persistent grassroots campaigning on community issues shows that Reform have no answers.

I wish people would stop asking themselves why Keir Starmer is supporting this policy or that, as if there’s a knowledge gap, and that if he was properly informed then he’d do the right thing. He & his ministers have all of the facts you value at their fingertips. His decisions are not an accident.

Only the PR genius of a Starmer could make one of the most vicious sets of football hooligans into the victims.

UEFA has turned down Eintracht Frankfurt's bid to relocate their Champions League clash with Napoli to a neutral venue after the German side's fans were banned from attending by local authorities, the Bundesliga club said on Friday.

It's almost as if the people that know anything about football were right about the football, and the people that don't know anything about football should've been fucking ignored.

Anti-migrant rhetoric is hurting the health and wellbeing of the population and is therefore a major public health issue.

The prejudice & division propaganda has consequences in terms of mental health, workforce morale & capacity, stigma & barriers to access support, feelings of safety & security.

Reform UK forced to reject slew of unlawful donations Eleven of the returned contributions were made by people living overseas

The gutter party have been forced to reject funding from foreign based rich persons. Funding has to be from people registered to vote in the UK so Farage and his gang will have to try here instead.
