Matt Goodwin, the GB News presenter standing for Reform UK in this month’s #GortonAndDenton byelection, says he wants his “country back”. But he received a salary of up to €10,000 a month from a far-right pressure group based in Hungary. goodlawproject.org/orbans-pay-c... #Newsnight

Scandalous.

1. Labour Together appointed Alison Phillips as CEO in Oct 2025. According to her Linkedin profile and the company's website, she's still a senior adviser at MHP Communications, which is listed on the lobbying register (ORCL). MHP's lobbying clients: Assura, E.On Energy, Coca Cola, Muller, Pfizer

Governments must use new UN General Assembly resolution to turn International Court of Justice’s 2025 Advisory Opinion on climate change into robust action, Amnesty International said, ahead of discussions to finalize new UN climate change resolution www.amnesty.org/en/latest/ne...

Is this illegal?

Blimey. Looks like Matt Goodwin, who seems to think the Handmaid's Tale is an instruction manual, is in the pay of an Orban think tank, funded by Russian oil money.

Why does Starmer keep doing this? We've seen how it plays out so many times that it's almost too much effort to eye roll. Reinforces the notion that he has no natural ability for politics. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

The moral cowardice of Yvette Cooper. And yet another example of a senior figure in government who appears to struggle to grasp that they are in charge (when it suits).

This is a must watch. Shows how rotten the Labour Party has been for a very long time.

A petition calling for a public inquiry into pro-Israeli influence in Britain has reached over 50,000 signatures. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/75...

Phillips "This is not a country where people get thrown in jail for things they say" @zackpolanski.bsky.social points out 2,700 people have been arrested for holding signs And well done to Zack for challenging Phillips smear that 'from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free' is antisemitic

Mandelson is the same age as me. I can confirm that one does indeed become increasingly forgetful. For example, I have completely forgotten why I ever believed anything that he said. Oh wait .. I didn't.

In 2009, Mandelson was passing sensitive information to Epstein – I argued that the government department he ran, called Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (Berr), “functions as a fifth column within government, working for corporations to undermine democracy and the public interest”.

'Banning Palestine Action was always about appeasing pro-Israel lobby groups and weapons manufacturers, and nothing to do with terrorism.’

Happy #SocialistSunday! ✊ ✊ ✊ We need to work together and organise to smash the fash! Help the Green Party win in Gorton and Denton if you can! #FreePalestine! 🇵🇸 🇵🇸 🇵🇸

Just to be clear, for those who think I'm an anarchist/libertarian/in the hands of the techbros, being against banning kids from social media does *not* mean I'm against the regulation of social media. What I'm against is stupid, counterproductive, ill-thought-through regulation of social media.

It’s the Government’s duty to protect all communities - including trans people. They’re failing to do that. Trans people deserve safety and dignity. www.attitude.co.uk/news/zack-po...

The messages between the far-right former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and the late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein reveal how Bannon worked with Boris Johnson and Farage to “overthrow” Theresa May at the height of the 2018 Brexit crisis in the UK bylinetimes.com/2026/02/16/b...

“I’ve said it time & time again - we need to leave the ECHR” says Reform candidate Matt Goodwin The ECHR protects us all. The rights within it – firmly implanted into UK law by the Human Rights Act – are the reason why families devastated by disasters like Hillsborough could demand justice

Showing that you can lead a UK political party based on humanity. Based on doing the right thing.

"I didnt know anything about this investigation" Starmer says he doesnt know anything about Labour Together investigating & smearing journalists. A reminder that this is the organisation founded by McSweeney & other senior Labour right figures that masterminded his rise to power

Trump Administration Secretly Deported Nine People To Cameroon, Despite Court Ruling! ”The Trump administration has secretly deported nine people to Cameroon, despite being protected by U.S. court orders. None of the deportees are from Cameroon.” (NYT) Thread 1/10🧵 www.nytimes.com/2026/02/14/w...

More sanctions. Sure, that's really been making a difference. I suppose she thinks we're idiots. Why haven't maximum sanctions already been put in place? Why are we allowing Russian shadow tankers to transit the English Channel? Weak, meaningless stuff. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It’s the 120th anniversary of the adoption of the name the Labour Party. Today, there’s a growing call across the Labour & trade union movement about the need to restore democracy & members’ rights in the Party. If you agree, sign up to the statement in this video.

Nithya Shri The phrase "nobody wants to work anymore" is hilarious.. Like, no dude, people don't want to: • Commute 2 hours daily • Miss their kids growing up • Trade their entire life for rent • Get laid off with zero warnings • Work 50 hours for 40 hours pay Fix the system. Not the workers.

“Claims”? Asked which world leader he admires the most, Farage said in 2014: “As an operator, but not as a human being, I would say Putin.” In 2022 he suggested on X the invasion was “a consequence of EU and NATO expansion.” The BBC has got to do better than this.

👏👏👏

This is now literally the lead story on BBC News Scotland. The employment situation of a private individual harassed via lawfare is deemed the main headline for national news. This is genuinely sickening. The media is a cancer upon this country.

If you’ve ever wondered how Pam Bondi still has a law license after all this, you’re not alone. I lay out exactly why — and what it exposes about our accountability system.

In recent weeks I’ve written 3 times to the General Secretary of the Labour Party to call for an independent inquiry into this. I copied Keir Starmer into each request. Clear to me as Secretary of the NUJ’s Parliamentary Group if true this is unacceptable. archive.is/2026.02.14-2...

Reform want white women to become white babies factories. Am I right? @natashadevon.bsky.social youtu.be/PGGgzSPFCpM?...

Can't help thinking that this photo of Gorton & Denton Reform candidate Matt Goodwin with Steve Bannon - convicted fraudster, close friend & enabler of Jeffrey Epstein, promoter of violence to overturn a US election & admirer of Satan - has not had the coverage it deserves.

Every time I see Yusuf, I see privilege, smarm and arrogance

Perfect!

The constituency I live in has a 30% rate of child poverty. The seventh highest in Scotland, with only Glasgow constituencies being higher. I was one of the kids who grew up below the poverty line. Missing meals. Socially excluded from basic activities. This is utter contempt from Reform.

NEW: Read this terrific piece @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social for @thenerve.news in which she unpicks Edge.org, the hugely influential 'salon' funded by Epstein & threaded through with race science & eugenics. 1/ www.thenerve.news/p/epstein-bi...

Saying “I don’t like the Tories, Labour etc so I’m going to vote Reform“ is like saying “I don’t like burgers so I’m going to eat a toxic waste tip instead”. Admittedly, for many years, we have had to vote for the least bad Party. But there is no reality in which Reform is the least bad Party.

They want to take away our human rights. They want to take away our NHS. They want to take away our BBC. They want to take away everything that makes life worth living. All for their own greedy entichment. The far right, led by Farage and Trump.

And Farage wants fo abolish our NHS and actually COPY the worst healthcare system of any major country - the insurance-based system of the USA. THINK ABOUT THAT before you vote massively against your own interests and your country’s interests by putting an “X” against Reform. Thank you.

Farage is the biggest threat our NHS has ever faced. He wants to replace it with a US-style insurance system. Most bankruptcies in the US are for unpaid medical bills – of people WITH medical insurance. What happens to those without medical insurance? You don't want to know.

Just disgusting. Please do not vote for this.

Good to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social asked about this. He’s right on this, of course. So much of my time (and camera roll) is taken up by reporting flytipping. It is a symptom of an ill society, and we need long-term thinking and a real commitment to reducing waste & increasing recycling.

"Calling us racist hurts our feelings!" - Paula London Mate, BEING racist gets people killed. GROW UP! BBC Debate: Has Jim Ratcliffe made the immigration debate more toxic?

@greenparty.org.uk Who don't take donations from corporatations w/ agendas. Where do Green interests lie? With us. We need this change so badly. For our kids, for our sick & elderly, for an independent national infrastructure that doesn't desperately depend on anyone else. Think bigger. Think 💚

A must watch for every voter.

Gold Standard interviewee

@zackpolanski.bsky.social great interview. Honestly, I don’t know how you manage to remain patient with Trevor Phillips — I’m sure he’s an absolute sweetheart off camera, but good heavens he’s tiresome the rest of the time! 🤣
