In 2020 Nigel Farage said of MPs who defect & refuse a by-election “it’s not right, it’s dishonorable” Giving voters the right to have a say on an MPs defection is vital to restoring trust in our politics - and isn’t that exactly what the government has pledged to do?

BREAKING: Israeli media reports that Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has been killed

This refusal to listen is determined and purposeful. I’d like to think stupid. But there must be someone pulling the strings for such abject ignorance to align with Reform not the Greens. Where is their criticism of Reform?

Neither Labour nor ReformUK can accept the fact that they’ve been defeated by an authentic, articulate woman with strong local roots in her community!🗳️🟢 Instead they look for ridiculous excuses or spout blatant lies to diminish her & the stunning Green Party victory! In truth they’re bad losers!🙄😠

Unleash chaos.

It is an IGnoble mission not a #Noble one. #Iran

“The home secretary will warn Labour MPs that the party will lose the next election unless they speed ahead with her hardline immigration reforms” Heaven help us www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

This is the way the average American is forced to live because our hard earned money is being siphoned to turn billionaires into trillionaires.

American sons and daughters are cannon fodder to distract us from an entire regime of child raping sex traffickers.

#AI What worries me most is that the whole of us living through current times are actually unaware of its large scale impact What I ask- Is the human good actually irrevocably linked to development of AI OR Is AI, the new nuclear-An elitist choice @organicbotanic.bsky.social

Absolutely astonishing. Heartfelt congratulations to all fellow Green members, esp the team that's been active here in Gorton and Denton. I could not be prouder, to have Hannah Spencer, AS MY MP! 💚💚💚💚💚

Two options for voters in Gorton & Denton. Greens or Reform?

I’ve heard a lot of things on C-SPAN, but that call was haunting. A brutal reminder of the real-world toll.

This is horrible and heartbreaking. Her story isn't unique, which is why it really needs to be heard. Far too many folks are living comfortably, and truly don't understand the real world repercussions of what Republicans are doing.

Donald Trump says one thing and does another.   He’s been caught in a web of lies once again by breaking his promise to make health care more affordable and instead turning around to raise deductibles for working families.

The #patients I saw this morning boarding in the #emergencydepartment are...still boarding at 7:30 PM. Oy.

Historical danger, existential crisis

Protecting public health does not mean erasing individual rights. It means recognizing that some choices carry consequences beyond ourselves. Infants cannot choose to be vaccinated yet. They rely on us to create a protective barrier around them. That is not government overreach-it is community care.

The fabulous and prolific @nurseteria.bsky.social and Dr. Arthur Lavin have a piece out about the lessons that polio taught us about vaccines and public health. It’s ludicrous that RFK Jr. and his minions want to destroy the progress made against infectious disease.
