Thank god. A great win for Hannah Spencer and the Greens, for #GortonAndDenton and for progressive voters. Made even greater by the huge Reform sulk. And the fact that the hateful Goodwin got whooped. Now Labour, look to your left because you will not win from the right. We’re sick of that failure.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: Russia couldn't and can't occupied us. They didn't win, and for us it's a victory.

Deposition: “Have you ever socialized with Donald Trump in the presence of females under the age of 18”  Epstein: “Though I’d like to answer that question, at least today I’m going to have to assert my 5th, 6th & 14th Amendment Right, sir” Hillary Clinton didn't plead the 5th once - js

If you wanna find the inflection points, there were two biggies: 1. We stopped taxing the rich their fair share. 2. The Supreme Corpse Citizens United ruling allowed them to start buying elections. And here we are.

Knock me over with a feather;)

Expect weeks of "family voting" rhetoric from Reform. They're out of the gates on it already. It mustn't be allowed to wash because look at the scale of that win. Tactical voting has obviously played a massive part. Gorton and Denton rejected Reform and its hateful agenda.

The Green victory in Denton is the result which will have the biggest effect on Labour, far more so than a Reform win. The blithe assumption progressives have nowhere else to go has been proved catastrophically wrong. Can’t help thinking of this quote from a Labour minister, a year ago…

Yesterday in Parliament, @richardburgon.bsky.social sponsored a meeting of the NHS Working Group, on the subject of NHS privatisation. @99organisation.bsky.social @keepournhspublic.bsky.social @nuffieldtrust.org.uk Healthcare Privatisation -- Should We Care? 99-percent.org/healthcare-p...

“On average the pilot has increased incomes by £2,600 per year.” Well done!

More misleading rubbish from Farage! I wonder how many (and what proportion of) Brits living in Spain don’t speak Spanish? fullfact.org/immigration/...

Today is the four year anniversary of the barbaric full scale invasion against the peaceful people of Ukraine. Peaceful, until roused to defend themselves…. Slava Ukrainii

Suspension of Matt Goodwin campaign manager (due to alleged racism and antisemitism) confirmed - www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

But, NOT releasing it does manifest injustice to America.

I have spoken to two people now who have told me that only part of their FBI interviews are in the released files, and the parts of their interviews that are missing include mentions of Trump. 1/

Thanks - really helpful description of how MMT describes government spending and how we shouldn’t confuse that with subjective MMT policies

Today marks four years since the start of Russia’s unjustified, full-scale invasion of Ukraine. This morning, I spoke with members of the Coalition of the Willing to reinforce our support for a just and lasting peace.

There is a way to stop the war. Between Russia and Ukraine. I think all of us know what it is. Russia just needs to go home and stop trying to steal Ukrainian land. That would end the war because Ukrainians sure as hell don't wanna fight for bullshit. They're fighting for their lives.

Scotland pays £14,000,000,000 in VAT, every year, to Westminster. We already have a Tourism Tax. Up a third, in just 5 years. Scotland alone produces a third of all UK Food and Drink Exports and half of all renewable energy. For any sensible Scot, there's not even an argument any more.

Without the dots, it looks like polygraph test results from a pathological liar.

Pleased to see FullFact confirming what I said in my film is correct. As for Reform leader Nigel Farage - he is of course speaking boll****. Perhaps UK news shows could now start calling him out on this. fullfact.org/immigration/...

Look at this, @allangpaterson.bsky.social In Germany’s carnival celebrations, they used the same image for condemning the AfF that we used to utilise for our “if we all work together, our fish becomes bigger than all the nasty big fishes out there” imagery!

Rise of the Nazis Reform UK to create ICE-style agency to deport 288,000 people a year, will terminate the status of those with indefinite leave to remain. It would leave the ECHR. How many would be shot, as by ICE? How many families will be destroyed? How many concentration camps?

Migrants are not responsible for the UK’s healthcare crisis They are not a burden on the NHS, but a vital part of how it functions. www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

If Brexit damaged the economy, this would be self-harm on a national scale. Yes, it’s cruel. But it’s also catastrophically stupid. Who do they think they’re removing? Doctors. Nurses. Care workers. The people propping up the NHS and social care while we face record shortages. 1/2

Pull them out and what happens? Wards close. Care homes shut. Waiting lists explode. This isn’t “taking back control.” It’s ripping out the wiring while the house is still standing. Cruel. Reckless. Economically illiterate.

All of this. Yet I am hearing he is the worst PM ever. I genuinely want to know why. Because other than believing lies and propaganda I cannot see it myself.

He owes nearly $90 million with interest. He raped her, defamed her for 5 years, sent death threats her way, and promised to do it "a thousand times." Courts keep saying: Carroll told the truth. EGCarrol wants to build women's safe shelters with this money
