Labour has closed more safe routes, including family reunification than Tories did They haven't opened new safe routes, they have rejigged existing ones to put the onus of sponsorship on individuals and community groups rather than the state Work and study routes exclude families. 1/3

Incredible how the press and Labour pols have been allowed to present the Cass review as neutral and objective. The Tories wanted to ban trans healthcare and they put the right person in place to get it

Labour exists to protect the status quo. They want clear signals that Burnham won't bring in wealth taxes, water nationalisation or stop the UK arming Israel. We need to keep building our movement and provide hope with a plan for a different politics. Join.greenparty.org.uk

No, what happened was the religious right in the US, after losing on Obergefell v. Hodges, immediately changed tactics. They held huge conferences outlining their plans to roll back LGBT rights as whole by targeting trans people. They didn't skip a beat. We aren't to blame for our own oppression.

A teen holding a white flag shot down from a quadcopter in his own home. A newborn baby shot in the head while breastfeeding inside a tent. These are some of the horrific accounts of Israel’s targeting of Palestinian children from the UN’s latest report. @mehdirhasan.bsky.social youtu.be/LF_w-e3wpEI

The new centrist Democrat group boosting Polymarket is really just the icing on the cake here.

I spoke to LBC News about the extreme heat and how unprepared we are for rising temperatures. The Mayor has recognised the need for a heat plan, but the Government is still dragging its feet.

The hill I will die on: any Immigration Debate is a Racism Debate. Stopping people coming into a country illegally is not an immigration issue, it’s a security issue, like stopping drugs or guns. Any other immigration talk is just about keeping out people you don’t like.

www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j... Israeli forces on Sunday arrested a prominent 71-year-old Palestinian physician known as the “doctor of the poor” in a pre-dawn raid on his home in the occupied West Bank, prompting widespread condemnation.

Got a similarly simple solution to the Transgender issue. Just let people transition and be fucking normal about it and mind yer own beeswax

andy burnham is desperate to keep *this* guy happy. 🙄

Climate breakdown is here. We must double down on efforts to decarbonise but that's not enough. We need new rights at work to protect us from climate danger - failing to act now will endanger workers' lives and cost our health service dearly.

The greatest episode of television ever made.

..even on his way out the door, he's still pushing the "Farage is right, and I'm delivering what he wants" line which has proven so successful, both politically and economically, for the last two years..

WHAT

Awful stuff here. And - because I haven’t seen anyone else point this out, rather than for pure point-scoring reasons - this won’t be the first time that, in parts of the world that suffer horrible natural disasters, it’s going to be hard to get aid in without violating the sanctions regime.

My view: if you're an organisation celebrating this bill you're doing so to advance your own interests rather than those of trans people. The bill is a disgrace which is in reality more likely to hurt trans people than help them. 👇🏻

This is true. I read the entire Cass Report, all the appendices, and the systematic reviews as well. There were no studies finding evidence of harm and multiple studies finding some evidence of benefit. This would normally lead to a suggestion of more study while cautiously endorsing the treatment.

Bridget Phillipson keeps telling us the FWS judgment brought "clarity", while the EHRC guidance has left many people more confused than ever. So we have sent her a pair of reading glasses. We are sure some more assistance is needed, if anyone would also like to send her some glasses.

Israel continues to commit genocide by deliberately targeting Palestinian children in Gaza, an ⁠independent UN inquiry has found. The report said about 30% of the people killed by Israeli forces have been children. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Antisemitism is structurally necessary to Elon Musk’s politics, because he is desperate to brand himself an insurgent against the powerful elite, but as the world’s first trillionaire, he needs a definition of “elite” not rooted in wealth or corporate ownership.

Pundit - “It’s a total mystery! Mass hysteria is the only explanation!” Normal Person - “Well, there was all those times that he…” P - “It’s now undeniable that the country is simply ungovernable!” NP - “But I think people really disliked when he…” P - “If a good, principled man can’t…”

How dare these charities try to influence public opinion towards migration?! That's the Telegraph's job

Keir Starmer is a bad person who used his power to make the United Kingdom a more unequal place and dismantle the possibility of opposing oppression and genocide, and to drive trans people from public life. If you think he is decent, I have news for you about your own moral judgement.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is asked if Andy Burnham becoming PM is bad news for the Green party. Zack explains why it isn't. And two and half years into Israels genocide Cathy Newman still interrupts as soon as Zack says the word.

Streeting would definitely signal to those on the Left that are still on the fence exactly what they're going to get with Burnham.

this is it, this is the whole thing

This correct, and it’s not mysterious why Labour staff and MPs believed they’d be enormously successful for booting the shit out of their own supporters: they believed that because they have only ever been hugely rewarded for doing it by the national press, who called them heroes of great bravery.

Steve Bray triggering all the right people.

Getting in on the ground floor. Andy Burnham resign bitch

Initial reaction: Oh good, zero chance of Streeting being PM. Next reaction: Ah fuck, this means Burnham has promised him a big cabinet role.

Starmer supporters live in their own little world. What a nothing politician for them to support. They must be starving for decent role models over there.

“In it we refer to Keir Starmer as the Prime Minister so please do watch as quickly as possible.” 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀 💀

Its funny that the only vote that'll happen to replace Starmer with Burnham will be the Makerfield vote. It might not be Streeting, but those changes Labour made still did the job to remove democracy from the party.

If you're keeping score at home this is now the second time Lemkin has warned that the UK's rhetoric and actions towards trans people are genocidal. But I'm sure that's nothing to worry about, right?

It's interesting how many transphobic laws automatically hurt cis women, trans men, enbies & intersex people but not cis men & in fact reinforce their patriachal control over all women. Guess those are all just funny coincidences!

A Megaphone investigation shows that Israel deliberately tracked journalist Amal Khalil, targeted her, and obstructed efforts to rescue her.

Well Keir Starmer may not have saved the country from being a failed state, and he may not have done the simple right thing in the face of a horrific genocide, and he may have no idea how AI works despite his probably corrupt enthusiasm for it, and he may have backed the pro-rape spycops bill, and

Looking promising for whoever had Monday in the sweepstakes.

This govt really hates children

"You are loved"

The architect of Labour’s cruel plans on settled status and persecution of free speech and protest stays in place. More of the same. Only the Greens can take on failing Labour in Greater Manchester. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

We're are working on a video about this but I really think Obsession is SO good but its 100% unambiguous in that Bear is a POS, and gives Nikki interiority, but because the movie makes Bear relatable people think its ambiguous and misogynistic; and it's telling how men don't want to self-reflect.

I just finished a book that I only bought because I fell in love with the cover.

Calling Israel a nazi state feels like an understatement.

We're going to have to watch a lot of Labour dramas now so I hope people are psyching themselves up for it

Bruh blocked me for this

Here you observe the journalist in his natural habitat; locking replies when his dipshit post about how all Labour had was a comms problem You could set out your stall and do some comms of your very own, but that's hard work and they're not really people in the replies anyway.

It's very funny on two counts to see "the press has been unfair to Starmer" because: 1. They deliberately avoided scrutinising him before he won the 2024 election 2. I was told over and over again that the British press was a natural phenomena and it was a skill issue to be unable to navigate it
