Elon Musk also said this about empathy yesterday, which I hadn’t see. When I posted this. This man is a danger to us all.

😂 What a burn 🔥 GB News host, Camilla Tominey is upset the BBC isn’t calling Mamdani a communist This response from Jessica Simor, KC (King’s Councillor) is something to behold.

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

"What binds Polanski and Mamdani is not only their left-wing credentials, but their rejection of political cynicism." Let's go! 🎉 www.europinion.uk/post/how-zac...

The destruction of empathy which is part of the so-called ‘War on Woke’ is a vital component that allows the radical right to rise. Swathes of a population must be numbed to the suffering that they want to inflict on minorities and society.

Dominic Grieve’s response to Nigel Farage’s ‘let’s leave the ECHR’ stunt in parliament is spot on.

Bravo Spain 👏 PM Sánchez, said: “It will be an honour to call them compatriots. We call for the defence of the same democracy as they did at a time when it is under threat around the world” 32,000 volunteered to fight Franco dictatorship, inc 2,500 men & women from Britain & Ireland

Remember when Suella Braverman said there was “no legal basis” to claims that there would be a £50 billion bill if the UK left the EU? That it was “project fear”?

EXCLUSIVE: Sadiq Khan urges New Yorkers to reject the "politics of hatred and fear" and back Zohran Mamdani. Source close to the mayor highlights the "uncanny" similarities between the Conservative's Islamophobic campaigns against Khan and the attacks on Mamdani bylinetimes.com/2025/11/04/s...

😂👏 Christmas sponsored by Reform UK

Latest Polling by @YouGov 🟣 Reform 27% 🔵 Tory 17% 🔴 Labour 17% 💚 Green 16% 🟠 Lib Dem 15% This is the LOWEST Labour has ever polled with YouGov. This is the HIGHEST @greenparty.org.uk has ever polled with YouGov. 4 parties within 2 points of each other for second place.

It's Populist Trick no.5: Motte & Bailey

So, Trump gives Argentina $40 billion to prop up a tinpot dictator, yet allows a private donor to donate $130 million to pay military wages because of a govt shut down which many think is so a newly elected senator cant be sworn in as her vote would ensure the win needed to release Epstein files 😳

As someone from south Wales I was so relieved when Reform lost in Caerffili by-election But from May 2026 a new election PR system for the Wales & the Senedd comes into place that could see Reform gain very significantly there What does the Caerffili by-election tell us @bylines.cymru

😂 How utterly bizarre .. even from the Daily Fail It reads like some soft porn extract from a Jilly Cooper novel. Love how Zack has them so rattled.

Reform's defeat in Caerphilly should give us hope. Just think; all the media attention (basically free advertising), social media spending, bots, &Farage's visits, & they failed. Farage’s defeat shows his party continues to be overestimated writes @adambienkov.bsky.social @bylinetimes.bsky.social

Oh!

Starmer, Zelensky, EU leaders agree that Ukraine borders should not be changed by force ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

Worth a listen.

I live in the Canary Islands & like dozens of smaller airports across the EU, prior to Brexit we had no 3rd country intl flight arrivals. Only EU. People have no idea the vast expense that has had to be laid out, in many cases just to accommodate the selfish isolation of Brexit.

Is it too little too late though for Labour to only now be jumping on the Brexit blame bandwagon? They should have been hot on the topic since before the election. Brexit has made the country poorer caused taxes to rise. That should have been their mantra, after all the public know it to be true.

Be on the right side of history. Be #Anifa

Ever noticed how those who think their skin colour or place of birth makes them superior to others are often the least superior of all?

Spain has reported record numbers of tourists Maybe it’s down to the drop in Telegraph readers 😉

The first time I’ve been looking forward to watch Question Time in quite a while! Go on @zackpolanski.bsky.social! #bbcqt

New report finds UK’s top scientific institutions have inadequate institutional defences to prevent potential political interference. yorkshirebylines.co.uk/politics/str... @yorkshirebylines.co.uk @grassrootsforeurope.org @chrischirp.bsky.social

Disappointed that this BBC news piece about Trump not wanting Mayor Sadiq Khan at the State Banquet doesn't once mention Khan's race or religion. If you leave out that Khan is a brown Muslim man, you gloss over why he's targeted by Trump. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Andrea Jenkyns, Mayor of Lincolnshire, DOGE warrior... A story in three parts....

By our chair @suewilson91.bsky.social It was my pleasure to join the Thank EU for the Music team handing out EU flags at the Proms, Royal Albert Hall While the small, peaceful, friendly flag-waving efforts received no attention, the world’s media were out in force for Tommy Robinson’s hate rally

Once again, grateful to my host nation for taking a stand Spain’s PM, Pedro Sánchez, has called for Israel to be barred from intl sports competitions for as long as its “barbarism” in Gaza continues, saying the country should not be allowed to use high-profile events to “whitewash” its offensive

He massively admires Tommy Robinson... He was with Tommy Robinson the previous evening... Tommy Robinson gave him the flags... But this is a grassroots movement apparently

Considering the mealy, pathetic responses from the UK government so far, I know I shouldn't be surprised. Still, I find myself continuously disgusted by their capitulation and mealy-mouthed, pathetic responses to the actions of Israel, its war crimes, and its war criminals.

There are over 750,000 vacant homes in the UK and over 780,000 job vacancies, including over 200,000 shortages in the NHS and care sector. £46.8 billion a year is lost in tax evasion. By 2040, over 1/4 of the population will be over 64. Immigrants are not the issue; they are the solution.

Well done Lib Dems. Reform's 5 (now 4) MPs but clocked up 353,660 mentions, which is 70,732 mentions per MP, highest of any party with thier 14.3% vote share in 2024 Lib Dems returned 72 MPs with 12.2% of the vote in 2024. They received 46,468 mentions; their coverage works out at only 645 per MP

Sign up for this webinar - The far right are not protectors of women & exploiting the real issue of violence against women & girls to whip up racism & attacks on refugees, Muslims and migrants. It's time to call out the lies & stop the right from falsely connecting migration to sexual abuse.

Please do sign this open letter via @europeanmovement.co.uk Call on the UK govt to robustly reject Reform UK’s calls to leave the ECHR & engage constructively with the UK public, to communicate the importance of checks on executive power, maintaining peace in NI & protecting our rights

As you may have seen @zackpolanski.bsky.social is the new leader of the @greenparty.org.uk Zack was our guest contributor to our monthly Bremainers Ask feature in July. Read his answers to this, and more here www.bremaininspain.com/bremainers-a... @suewilson91.bsky.social @marchforrejoin.co.uk

I’m looking forward to the BBC’s wall to wall coverage of the Liberal Democrat conference in a fortnight- a party with 16 times more MPs than Reform. How will they even manage to do 16 times more coverage? No space left on the airwaves.

Congratulations to @zackpolanski.bsky.social on becoming the leader of UK Green Party I met Zack a couple of years ago when we, along with the lovely Terry Reintke here were speakers at the National Rejoin March He’s a great guy, fought a great campaign & we need more left voices. I wish him luck

Huge thanks to @zoejardiniere.bsky.social for participating in this Bremainers Ask feature & for sharing her vast knowledge & insight on asylum & immigration Often appearing in political debates across radio & TV she is a breath of fresh air Full article www.bremaininspain.com/category/bre...

Proud of my host nation and grateful our government speak up for migration. Sadly, I cant say the same for my home nation.

The Greens and Lib Dem’s should start doing regular ‘press conferences’ so we can see if they get the same treatment

The Sun in 2025 vs The Sun in 2016. Another Brexit lie busted. Of course the Sun’s new article makes no apology, or even mention, of their 2016 front page splash - which was ruled “misleading” by the press watchdog at the time - but what did The Sun care, when the lie served its purpose anyway.

We have had some incredible contributors to our ‘Bremainers Ask’ feature but this is def one of my favourites @zoejardiniere.bsky.social is an expert on immigration/asylum policy in UK & Europe, often appearing on TV & other media outlets to counteract the rhetoric & racism with reality & humanity

Two unconvicing points 1) "any disputes [on the food standards treaty] will go to international arbitration, not the European Court of Justice" - but the agreement is that the arbitrators can ask the CJEU about EU law points

Is the BBC Reform UK's mouthpiece? Yup. "Researchers at Cardiff University have produced a detailed analysis of every episode of the BBC’s flagship Question Time programme broadcast between September 2014 and July 2023 to see if the broadcaster was balancing political viewpoints."

Profoundly important from @davidallengreen.bsky.social. The lack of meaningful restraints against executing power in our system leaves us utterly exposed in the face of a Reform government. They could do whatever they want. open.substack.com/pub/emptycit...

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Labour should fire their entire comms team. Now. They'll have to find a new photo of Farage grinning even wider to match reality, if they keep this up. (Link to original tweet...) x.com/uklabour/sta...
