Didn't expect Daily Mail to be doing free branding. Lower bills, protect the NHS and fund public services. Can imagine why Lord Rothermere isn't so keen....

History tells us that US-led regime change efforts abroad almost never bring positive results. Here are seven US regime-change wars β and how disastrously they turned out. Read here:

Just fascinating to see Blair, a man whose reputation was ruined by the Iraq war, advocate joining a war that is exponentially stupider and more chaotic. How is it possible to learn nothing from the worst mistake of your life?

Over 1000 civilians dead, and we're letting Trump use UK bases to further his war. Britain should stand firm against Trump's illegal warmongering, and stop these bombers landing on UK soil.

Speaking with
@aaronjbastani.bsky.social
in the early hours after the epic win. We talk about some of the despicable tactics of the Labour campaign. My assumption was it would be in the past but I already think they've learnt nothing. We're just getting started...

Labour say their economic plan is working. Who for? Families trying to put food on the table? Renters facing yet another rent hike? Billpayers lining the pockets of water company shareholders? It's time for the Government to get real on the cost of living crisis.

Great pushback from
@benmclaine.bsky.social
"If you marched against the war in Iraq, no one could really say you supported Sadam Hussein" is one we're going to have to keep reminding people of. Disgust at war is not endorsement of murderous regimes. It IS an indictment of murderous regime change.

The majority of people in this country do not want us to be involved in this war. Keir Starmer of a few years ago wouldn't have supported this war. The only reason he does now is he will do anything Donald Trump wants - and it makes us all less safe.

Why is Keir Starmer utterly incapable of saying no to Donald Trump? Our national security requires us not to be dragged into illegal wars. The Prime Minister is making us less safe. Did we learn nothing from Iraq?

So what do the Greens actually want to do with their decriminalisation of drugs? What would the system look like? Hopefully this thread will clear up your questions. There is a short term and long term answer to the Greenβs drug policy: π§΅

One of a few threads I'm creating that clarifies the Greens Drug Policy and how to defend it ππ»ππ» This one is about "enhancing human relationships & creativity": what that means and what it doesn't.

Critics often claim the greens believe drugs can βenhance human relationships and human creativity.β This is misleading as the Greens are using the term βdrugsβ here more broadly, and is mostly a reference to the use of alcohol π§΅
