Hi! Mendip Hills Green Party from Somerset are now on Bluesky! We would greatly appreciate any reposts/follows! Let's try hope over pain. Join.greenparty.org.uk

The US and @uklabourparty.bsky.social are so far behind the will of the people that they're not even blips on the horizon. The killing must stop. Governments must act now. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

It's not a war though, is it Dave? It's genocide. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

'...if Cool Britannia is to be repeated the seeds will not be found in glossy Netflix-commissioned sitcoms... “They will be bubbling in the underfunded, underpaid, backstreets of the UK where our country’s greatest artists have always risen from.”' www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

Microplastics are now inside humans. Healthy before profit. I just signed this important petition by Greenpeace, please can you add your name?

This cause is close to my heart - please sign: www.megaphone.org.uk/petitions/pa...

Reminder: 26 bishops – appointed by the CofE, not elected by you – vote in the Lords. With abortion and (soon) assisted dying in the Lords, we’re working with the All-Party Parliamentary Humanist Group to make sure that evidence, not dogma, leads the way. www.churchtimes.co.uk/articles/202...

This completely ignores that class generally determines education but does nail Labour's flawed election win. “The majority of 174 is a creature of the electoral system, it is not a reflection of what happened in terms of how people voted.” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

URGENT: Sign the petition to end plastic pollution

He was a tortured soul who created some sublime music. A musical colossus who leaves behind him some of the greatest songs ever recorded. Farewell beautiful man. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/j...

The BBC is explicitly, consciously pivoting right to pander to a party with just 5 MPs. Where's the outrage? Where's the coverage?! They are converting our national broadcaster into a mouthpiece for the far right and no one is doing anything about it! bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

A British flagged vessel is boarded and seized and spineless PM Starmer does not have the balls to speak out about this criminal act. Detaining a British vessel in international waters is a crime and depriving starving children of food is a crime. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

I don't agree with all the songs selected for this top 20 but there are some absolute gems here from one of my fave bands. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/m...

Birmingham should be encouraging street performances NOT cracking down on them.

George Wendt, or Norm, as he was known in Cheers was a comic heavy weight - must have been all that beer. Farewell good sir. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Good morning, it’s Wednesday May 21st 2025! Already? Crikey. You be careful out among them English, John Book. (Dated this very day in 1977, just 48 years ago, 2000AD #13, with its cover collage by various artists.)

They'll never get my vote, not while they're the Tory Party in red.

£Billionaire's profits are out of control NOT the support given to those who most need it. The Labour Party is unrecognisable to its core voters and has been bought and paid for by the wealthy monsters that propagate inequality and greed. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

I love this. Down with the semi colon! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I haven't actually seen any Zionist genocide defenders on Bluesky in months. But they're out in force under the #Eurovision posts! That shows you how much Israel values @eurovision.tv for hasbara & whitewashing their Genocide of Palestine. It's why you #BoycottEurovision til they kick Israel out

Reform MP has no answer after being asked over how they would stop small boat crossings www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/ref...

It’ll be interesting to see what our right-wing Labour government does about this. www.libertyhumanrights.org.uk/issue/libert...

1.9 £billion wealth tax gap in UK. This is just wealthy individuals, add in corporations and the number will be considerably higher. Our problems are NOT due to immigration, they're due to tax avoiding shits fuelled by greed. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Quoting Enoch Powell is never a coincidence. The Prime Minister knew what message he was sending — and who he was sending it to. Disgraceful.

When people say they want some migrants to integrate more what do they want? More Muslims in the Cotswolds? Ali to wear tweed? Does Terry wanna buy Amjad a pint in Spoons? Mustafa to open a chippy not a kebab house? Can someone please give precise guidance?

Starmer doing an Enoch Powell-adjacent speech and then the next day going "oh my god, I can't BELIEVE so many of you are being so performatively outraged" like me punching the air near my mum's head and going "oh my god, I can't BELIEVE you're having a go when I'm so OBVIOUSLY just punching air".

People who use AI to make "art" and claim they truly are artists are the kids who would trace a picture of a giant squid from a book in year three and when they got caught out exclaim that everyone else is just jealous of their brilliant giant squid drawing.

If you wouldn't accept "we are at risk of becoming an island of strangers" from Kemi Badenoch or Nigel Farage you probably shouldn't accept it from Keir Starmer. Don't pretzel yourself trying to explain why it's ok from the guy in the red tie.

Breaks my heart

What’s really sad is that Sagan has been dead for nearly 30 years, and everything he says here is now 100x more true and more problematic than it was then, and thousands of online goons have devoted themselves to insisting it isn’t.

One frustrating thing is the Greens are an ideal analogue to Reform, considering how I believe they literally have the same number of MPs in Parliament, give or take one. But despite this, one is portrayed as a non-entity, while the other as the kings in waiting, who everyone’s policy bends around.

🎉 Absolutely delighted that Sohail is one of our newest councillors for @greenparty.org.uk !!! Accrington West and Oswaldtwistle. GRN: 30.6% (+24.5) CON: 27.6% (-17.0) LAB: 24.2% (-25.0) REF: 17.5% (+17.5) GREEN GAIN from LABOUR.

Labour get it wrong & decide to continue getting it wrong but to go faster. Bonkers! English local elections live: Starmer admits results ‘disappointing’ as Reform say they are main opposition after byelection victory

Going over final copy edits on the expanded/transed edition of TRUE BELIEVER, and I was **very** pleased to see that Penguin Random House added the highlighted text Fuck GenAI to hell and back

Another sad, sad loss to music. Blondie wouldn't have existed without Clem Burke. All heart, no glass. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/a...

Ah, police watchdog ignores evidence shocker. This really is a kick in the teeth for all those families who lost loved ones due to the actions of South Yorkshire Police. The IOPC ignores clear evidence that senior officers lied and instructed others to lie. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

A Keir Starmer pledge, not worth the vapour it's written on.

A brave young person doing the right thing, but we need far more. Force the government to bring about real change that benefits all, not just the bloated energy companies and billionaires. Also, the prison system needs scrapping & starting again. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

It’s true It was never about the Blackhole/Refilling the Purse/Whatever false analogy you use They just want to demonise and take from the vulnerable

Got a question for anyone who’s run a patreon that rewards per delivered item (a podcast say) - how does setting that up work? How do you tell patreon you’ve delivered something?

“It’s no good reading about what happens in Argentina as if it were an exotic case. The same billionaire who influenced elections in South America and helped to normalise the far right there helped to normalise the threats of arson against migrant hotels in the UK.” www.prospectmagazine...
