‘This is not harmless; it is a distortion of democracy by endlessly platforming Farage and granting him spectacle status. The press has manufactured legitimacy for a man and a party that has done almost nothing to earn it.’ Spot-on article from Bylines Scotland:

Hmmm. Try sounding it out. Duke of York? Nah. Prince Andrew? Not quite right. Mister Andrew Windsor? Closer. Ah, I've got it. Inmate Windsor No. 6437482.

What will be Starmer's verse in the Brexit poem? #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Professor Benjamin Zephaniah testifying for all of us here in 🇬🇧 with a multicultural culinary poem about the people of Britain (with notes) "The British"

Doctor: You've got an infection that's making you feel bad. Patient: I've been telling you for ages that it's an infection. Can I have some antibiotics? Doctor: No. It's probably better that we amputate your foot.

We go live to the Labour party and Brexit... (Their idea to blame forthcoming tax rises on Farage and Brexit is bonkers while they simultaneously continue to maintain their Brexit red lines and to claim that they can Make Brexit Work.)

Thanks Govts of Australia, Bermuda, Canada, Cayman, China, France, Germany Italy, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Qatar, Singapore, Spain, UAE, US would like to thank UK for letting their entities own UK infrastructure. Vast profits exported, Britons stare at sewage in rivers.

More of this please!! protectthewild.substack.com/p/60-mps-sig...

Far more UK politicians need to speak up in support of migrants the way Zack Polanski did last night on #bbcqt You don't fight fascism by (even partially) endorsing it's talking points, you fight fascism by rejecting them and offering a more positive vision.

EU's steel tariffs highlight just how big a scam Brexit is It was never about taking back control - we already had control but threw it away hence the small boats - Brexit was all about offshore bank accounts & large corporate tax breaks Brexit is a betrayal of the public by the establishment

An interesting way to get the meaning of consent across

Israel has unleashed around 200,000 tons of explosives on Gaza — the destructive force of nearly 13 Hiroshima-sized bombs.

This is truly brilliant. Such a way to communicate, #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Politics isn't working. It's time to call time on the broken culture in Westminster and have a fresh start with a fair voting system. Add your name to @electoralreform.bsky.social‬'s call to #MakeSeatsMatchVotes action.electoral-reform.org.uk/page/3782/pe...

🔴BBC Laura Kuenssberg Show Accused of Anti-Green Bias After Cancelling Zack Polanski Interview The new Green leader was the only major party leader not to have been granted an interview on the flagship BBC show after being elected, or during his party conference bylinetimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

A few people control our power, our public services and our wealth. It's time to take it back. My longer chat with @owenjones.bsky.social about @greenparty.org.uk plans to build on our success. youtu.be/SwZ0JcXsAhM?...

Things Farage won’t answer: 1. Why did he lie about buying a house in Clacton? 2. What did he know about Welsh Reform Leader Nathan Gill’s Russian Bribes? 3. Why did he lie about meeting the Russian Ambassador? 4. Why is his flagship council Kent raising taxes and cutting services?

www.theguardian.com/politics/202... I think it's "un-British" to be providing diplomatic cover, arms and intelligence flights to a rogue, genocidal state. But then I'm not Mr K Starmer.

Being accountable to an international court means our Government has to answer to them if it tries to undermine your human rights. Be very suspicious of any UK politician who wants to remove that check on their powers. Share this and speak up for your freedoms.

George does 🤨 ….

Leaving the European Convention on Human Rights would be an act of self-sabotage, not independence, because the convention was forged from British ideals of justice and human dignity, written by our own lawyers in the ruins of war, to ensure that tyranny could never again take hold in Europe.

BBC accused of 'extraordinary' anti-Green bias after party say the Laura Kuenssberg Show scrapped a promised interview with @zackpolanski.bsky.social on Sunday. Green sources say the show also refused to interview Polanski after he was elected as leader last month bylinetimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

Before choosing which party I vote for, they must pass some minimum requirements. 1) Must NOT seek to reduce my basic human rights. 2) Must join the EU. 3) Must introduce equal and fair voting (PR).

The msm pursued the Rayner story in such detail it forced her resignation . Now there’s a much bigger scandal concerning Farage of possible treason it’s like they’ve forgotten how to spell investigate & corruption. It’s not only Farage who has a Russian problem, if our msm protects him we all do .

Convinced that most British people want to live in a functioning, decent country where government improves stuff and everyone can thrive. The vast majority want nothing to do with this imported hate and atmosphere of violence directed at people just trying to live their lives.

🔴‘Morgan McSweeney’s Factional Labour Takeover Has Left Keir Starmer Looking Increasingly Alone’ Labour’s conference showed a party leadership doubling down on a strategy that has left the PM with few supporters either in or outside the party, argues Neal Lawson bylinetimes.com/2025/10/03/m...

When the water industry was privatised in 1989, it had zero debt. Since then, it's accumulated combined debt of £60bn. This has been used to pay shareholders £72bn in dividends & to refinance companies: so original investors paid themselves back the original cost, ie they get the companies for free.

When I was a teenager there was a bus direct from my hometown in Germany to London - we had a British army base, and this direct bus connection was one of the benefits of that. One summer I went on that bus to go volunteer in an old people's home in Southend-on-Sea. I had just turned 18 and was... 🧵

So Rejoin!!!

So I have to ask who else was taking Russian or other money through the EU referendum period, to interfere with a democratic exercise? This will not be an isolated incident! We never saw the Russia report did we?

Starmer talking on X to the RW ghouls and trolls he wants to vote for him. The rest of us - real potential L voters - can DO ONE. For the record: 1) I am not 2) It won't 3) You'd need a microscope to see the "change" you are pleading about. @darrenpjones.bsky.social @imogenwalker.bsky.social

“Let’s call it for what it is: bullshit. The truth is, politicians have talked about little else but immigration for decades and in the most dehumanising ways. Polanski added: “Stop the boats’ is all we hear. Well, today I'm saying ‘stop the bullshit’.” www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

With Starmer making his active pitch to out Reform Reform today, it shows just how out of touch he is with reality. Labour can never beat Reform by copying them. They are losing more support to Greens and Lib Dems than Reform, and will continue to do so while they attack marginalised groups.

We had controlled, circular immigration pre-Brexit. A mobile workforce trained at the expense of their own country, who could fill vacancies with ease and would likely retire back at home in Europe. Brexit, an entirely right wing project, fucked it. Stop grovelling to these people Keir.

“Sharia courts” are not legally binding in the UK. They only carry weight if both disputed parties *choose* to follow their judgement. It’s like a friend informally mediating a dispute. This needs to be stated in such debates because this inflammatory rhetoric needs to be brought back to reality.

Picked up some Lib Dem stats at conference. Some of these surprised me (especially given media coverage): 1. The Liberal Democrats now control more councils than the Conservative Party 2. In May's local elections in England, the LDs elected more councillors than either Labour or the Tories. (1/x)

Useful reminder from Peter Kellner on the problems we refuse to acknowledge are getting better, and the politics of hopelessness that this breeds open.substack.com/pub/kellnerp...

Totally lost the plot! Apologies to all foreigners legally settled in the UK. This is not who we are or who we want to become. #NotInMyName www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Nigel Farage: "We will abolish indefinite leave to remain (ILR) status", and "We will rescind ILR statuses that have already been granted". The first sentence is worryingly ignorant. The second sentence is frighteningly fascist.

Green Party - Nationalise the water companies, tax the super rich, invest in our public services, stop the genocide, lower bills. The Telegraph - Greens are "hard left."

When Rishi Sunak made the Vaccine deal with Moderna as Chancellor, he had up to £530m invested in Moderna. Now Michelle Mone is desperately bringing it up. Like if you want Mone on trial. RT if you want them both facing the music.
