Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Pecksniff writes today of how the plot against the BBC is more likely to bring down the platters. Trump's insistence on suing in spite of an apology develops that theme. The BrItish public will see it as vindictive and unwarranted, and all sympathy will be with the BBC.

Steve Bannon advised Jeffrey Epstein for years on how to rehab his reputation, texts show

Without asylum: Marks and Spencer wouldn't exist Queen would have been without a front man The other queen wouldn't have had a husband Judith Kerr would never have written The Tiger Who Came to Tea And thousands of less famous people wouldn't have been teachers, politicians, neighbours, etc

Answer, they just got in with it. Largely because they're not at the behest of Big Oil donors

Sad but true

Some political pundits said Green Party is popular with young people, which is true if 49 is the new 21. #VoteGreen 💚

Most people in the UK still believe in the power of royalty. And we accept that a knighthood is created from nothing with a tap of the King’s sword. Yet many refuse to accept that the government creates money in exactly the same way: by tapping a few keys on a keyboard. youtu.be/Nt-_qzKRI2Y?...

Temerko, a Soviet-born oligarch and a major Conservative donor, told Belton that he and Johnson spent time… plotting the overthrow May. According to Temerko, Johnson had finally been persuaded to back Brexit in 2016 by a group of “eastern European businessmen”. bylinetimes.com/2023/01/19/l...

At least the UK has punished the Andrew formerly known as Prince, and Peter Mandelson for their Epstein links When will the US punish Trump, Bannon and Thiel?

Some journalists come out of the Epstein Files very badly, but the heartening thing for investigative journalist is how obsessed Epstein was over stories about him. These predators are terrified of daylight

When someone says it clearly like this, echoing what everyone says in private, the sycophancy and double-speak of other political leaders becomes all the more intolerable.

Zack Polanski slams "fool" Donald Trump live on US television www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/zac...

"The best response to hate is solidarity." -Zack Polanski

Interesting observation from @zackpolanski.bsky.social separating courageous journalism esp war zones & investigative reporting vs the class of political talking heads & columnists amplifying division and rage. Also on media ownership. Big mistake of last Labour Gov was not taking this head on.

Man's saying the right things, and he's doing it with *swag. This is politics for people with blood still flowing through their veins, young and old.

:)))))))

Burns: The Old Testament says there’s nothing new under the sun. On July 4th, 1776, there was. Everybody up to that point had been under authoritarian rule. It was in the interests of their rulers that they be uneducated, that they be superstitious, that they be distracted by conspiracies…

Exciting to see lots of people tonight joining us!!! 🎉 Join.greenparty.org.uk

Look around.

Zarah Sultana, "People recognise their lives are harder, their wages are stagnating, their bills increasing" #BBCQT "At the same time, the super rich in this country are laughing all the way to the bank" "The top 50 rich families in this country hold more wealth than 70% of the population"

Thanks to months of pitch rolling, the Labour government has now effectively told anyone paying attention that income tax rises are necessary, but they’re not going to do them because they’re politically weak. Let’s see how that plays!

Interview with Sky News on yet another week with questions around this Labour Government and their conduct in office. Everyone's exhausted - it doesn't need to be this way. Lower bills. Tax billionaires. We can make hope normal again. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

Yes. Next question. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/as-no1...

#GreenParty highlights the power of narrative #ZackPolanski has reached people through his simplicity & sincerity. Polanski stated: “Nigel Farage is a one-man show, if I’m a one-man show I’ve absolutely failed as a leader.” There's 150,000 co-working with Zack www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Interesting to read in the Times of Labour Ministers admitting that the Green Party are very much ready to take them (and Reform) on. "Polanski plans to redistribute power with a smile." www.thetimes.com/comment/colu...

spot on

Website banned by Reform UK named news organisation of the year www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2025/news/we...

DeformUK? No thanks! #VoteGreen 💚

🗣 @zackpolanski.bsky.social: "Keir Starmer is handing this country on a plate to Nigel Farage". 🛑 It's time to replace Labour and stop Reform. join.greenparty.org.uk ✅️

Love this “… the best response to hatred is solidarity…”

Good statement from the US conference of Catholic Bishops

This!

Priorities.

I was recently in Oldham at a new members meeting, a room packed with energy People who were Green curious came in to see what we're all about, and joined on the spot after listening to the panel putting forward the Green case on how to build a better future without resorting to hate and division!

It's note worthy that the Greens aren't just winning. We're taking seats from everyone and we're coming from fourth or fifth place to first, to do it. But it takes a lot of work from us regular folks! So help us out join.greenparty.org.uk

Reform UK energy plans crumble under scrutiny …evidence shows green jobs and growth are already powering the UK economy

The tide is turning @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Earlier this year world’s largest battery-electric ship was successfully launched from the main production hall of Incat Tasmania into the River Derwent in Hobart, Australia. The ferry carries 2,100 passengers and 225 vehicles.

🎉 Green WIN! 🎉 💚 Congratulations to Peter Campbell of Canterbury Green Party on being elected in Wincheap ward!

Ken Clarke humiliates Danny Kruger's new party, Reform UK on #BBCQT "I live in a county with a Reform UK council" "Most of them had no idea what the country council did" "They fought on the promise of reducing waste and council tax" "And they just put up the council tax by the max"

Poor cycle lanes, fear of theft, and big price tags – e-cargo bikes face hurdles. But one Norwich rental scheme is proving that when families try before they buy, everything changes. Matthew O’Conner Lomas reports @eastangliabylines.co.uk

In the global electrification race China is marching ahead. The US and Europe risk falling behind clinging on to yesterday's technologies.

Really good Leftist chat about issues effecting young men under Patriarchal Capitalism between Zack Polanski and Jordan Stephens of Rizzle Kicks: youtu.be/PxSr45TLyuA?...

Yet another story about the Labour Government that absolutely stinks.

Big vibes from @zackpolanski.bsky.social - politics of hope are the way forward!

We had the leader of the Welsh Greens on the pod. Apart from presenting him with a bag of carrot batons (obviously) we talked about the party’s chances in Wales next year and the Zack Polanski surge. youtu.be/7xPjR3iFr6A?...
