Reform politicians are happy to throw insults from a distance. But when it comes to debating their ideas? No show. Richard Tice pulled out. Farage won’t face me. Now their candidate in Gorton & Denton has ducked our candidate Hannah Spencer. Vote Green.

🐂💩📈 We are changing the climate of our planet faster than in the known history of our world. Methane reached a record high of 1946.5 ppb! That's already much higher than the peak of the mid range climate scenario SSP2-4.5, which peaks at ~1905 ppb in 2030!

It's disturbing to see how Gordon Brown has whitewashed his reasons for reappointing Mandelson, and his own role in eroding democracy. Mandelson's official business was similar to his unauthorised scheming with Epstein. Don't let them rewrite history. My column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Over 40,000 have taken action to keep Palantir out of the NHS. Will you join them? https://notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-target/stop-palantir-in-the-nhs/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_campaign=PalantirNHS&utm_medium=social_media

A content warning for very, very significant police violence on this video: Israeli President Herzog is visiting Australia, and police in New South Wales are violently bashing prone protesters. The media is framing it in completely neutral terms. Watch the video, then look at the headlines.

If we had a functioning media in this country, political journalists would ask Wes Streeting: "Given you long ago concluded Israel is committing war crimes, does that not mean you must think your government is facilitating war crimes?" They'd specifically note F-35 components.

Wes Streeting has admitted that Israel is committing war crimes. In doing so, he has admitted that his government has broken the law. The government is legally obliged not to sell combat aircraft components to states committing war crimes.

GOVERNMENT LIES A clip from last night’s C4 Despatches shows that the government’s own advisor saw no evidence on claims used by Labour to proscribe Palestine Action. Jonathan Hall KC slams the phoney accusations of an ‘Iran link’ as “nudge nudge, wink wink”. Lift The Ban NOW

Lord Hain was there when the Terrorism Act was introduced, he has publicly condemned the use of this act against Palestine Action. He fears it could be used on “all sorts of protestors” and the likes of the Suffragettes and Anti-Apartheid protesters. “That cannot be justified”.

2. Linked to its alignment with the Netanyahu government is the Labour government’s assaults on the right to protest at home. Assaults that would have stopped the Labour movement in its tracks: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

1. Many here seem bemused by the anger and disappointment this government attracts. Please bear with me while I try to explain it. Let’s begin with Gaza. Starmer’s complicity is one of the major reasons so many people are disillusioned. rethinkingsecurityorguk.wpcomstaging.com/2025/10/07/i... 🧵

The Green Party are favourites to win in Gorton and Denton. Hannah Spencer - a local plumber - who cares about her community. We have a plan to lower bills, defend our NHS and rebuild our public services. m.youtube.com/watch?v=F1f-...

First stage of denial: shoot the messenger. There's a firing squad on Bluesky, aiming at anyone stating the blinking obvious: that Starmer needs to go ASAP if Labour is to have any chance of recovery before 2029.

The daft thing is that with Proportional Representation there'd be no need for this self-destructive war within Labour. It could split into its component parts - left and right - and people could vote for what they wanted. It's only First-Past-the-Post that forces these irreconcilables together.

1. People struggle to reconcile Keir Starmer’s ruthless ambition, Machiavellian manoeuvres, breaking of promises, collaboration in genocide, bans on protest, aid cuts, benefit cuts and war on nature with his history as a human rights lawyer. But perhaps there is no contradiction. Read on.🧵

A Labour MP remarks: "Starmer will go down as the worst PM in Labour history ... He’s a coward who refuses to take responsibility for his own actions. He is a moral gravity-well from which neither decency, honesty or integrity can escape. A genuine disaster for this country and the Labour movement.”

Like Dominic Cummings, Morgan McSweeney helped deliver electoral victory but, in doing so, debased and subverted everything his party claimed to stand for.

Since #bbclaurak is trending, let’s remind ourselves that ONE MONTH ago, the BBC invited Mandelson on for a soft-ball interview on her show. While HIS CLIENT , Palantir’s Louis Moseley appeared as a pundit Both, as I wrote at time, were ‘abject failures of journalism’ 1/

Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government. Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’ I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.
