Hey Darren, quick Q. How do you let down voters who have already been so let down by the current establishment that they have become subterranean?

We’ve nailed the slogans. We’ve got the mugs, the hashtags, the “It’s okay not to be okay” posters. What we don’t have is access to actual care. In todays piece, I discuss Movember, men and the gap that exists between talking and being heard. 🐻

Amazing work by the Green Party under the leadership of @zackpolanski.bsky.social, @rachelmillward.bsky.social and @mothinali.bsky.social. We can double current membership by Christmas. Let’s GO!!! Make hope normal again. Join the Green Party 💚

Watched V for Vendetta last night for the thousandth time….always brilliant, but I think its underlying message is more relevant now than it has ever been. I’m not advocating destroying the Houses of Parliament, but it looks like now is the time to rock the establishment.

Usually when a politician is asked a question, they visibly try to conceal the panic as they do a frantic mental run-down of the things they are contractually obligated to say / not say, because they’re bought & paid for by corporate lobby groups. No such problem with our @greenparty.org.uk leaders

As I may have shouted at the occasional ice hockey match: COME ON OXFORD!!!

OMG it seems they’re already running out of things to say! Zack hasn’t merely survived the first wave of media onslaught; he’s owned it, with thousands joining up every day. Join the Green Party to bring your support against the next wave! join.greenparty.org.uk

"We are coming for the Labour government and we are taking the fight to Reform.” Be part of it. Join the Green Party today! 👇

Windows 25H2 is tearing my pc to shreds. It’s been faultless for 4 years, full bill of health, no problems…..until now. Suddenly it’s like computing taken back to the Stone Age. Microsoft have really outdone themselves this time. What utter shit.

Last week I posted for 100k by mid-month. Done, with two days to spare! 👏 Make hope normal again. join.greenparty.org.uk

Absolute genius from #TVlicensingUK. No, I STILL don’t need a license. Kindly f*** off. And fix your website. Assholes.

Latest poll puts Greens just two points behind Labour. When I said we weren't here to be disappointed in Labour but to replace them, I meant it. Join us and let's make hope normal again. join.greenparty.org.uk

Let’s make it 100k by mid October. Come on Greens! Make hope normal again, for the price of a pint, by joining here: join.greenparty.org.uk

This is the first party political broadcast in a very long time that understands the trouble we’re in. Great job @zackpolanski.bsky.social 💚 youtu.be/qxt4HCjd7VA

A predictably outstanding conversation between Zack Polanski and Gary Stevenson. When two experts meet for a chat about a common goal, and neither of them has been bought out by corporate lobbyists or big-money private donors, this is how that looks 👏👏

New! Cassetteboy vs Keir Starmer. This took absolutely ages, so if you'd like to buy us a coffee at ko-fi.com/cassetteboy we'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Deplorable. Forcing people who want to live and work in the UK to undertake compulsory unpaid labour. This is a dark path Labour is taking down. But there IS an alternative. Join me in building a welcoming country. join.greenparty.org.uk

The truth: we need migration. The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it. Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality. Reject it. Draw the line.

I moved to a new neighbourhood a week ago. Is it too soon to go round to my neighbour and ask her to please turn her god-awful music off? Really wish I’d moved somewhere where there are zero people.

Very much enjoying this clip of @london.gov.uk getting SLAPPED by Zack Polanski. If you, like Zack, stand up for doing what is ethically correct, then join.greenparty.org.uk and help tear up the corrupt, morally bankrupt playbook.

Peter Mandelson’s life purpose is groveling to the ultra-rich. Twice he went too far even for Tony Blair’s government, and was obliged to resign. To Keir Starmer, looking to define his premiership against every traditional Labour value, it seems that this made him just the man for the job.

Brilliant start to the day. Imagine what a different place the UK would be if the likes of the BBC could conduct interviews / discussions like this!

This is what it looks like when an interviewer tries to catch out someone who is both better prepared, and more genuine, than they or their show are. Phenomenal response across the board from Zack, can’t remember the last time the UK experienced a politician of this caliber.

Jamie Raskin you absolute hero!

Straight out of the gates, Zack is taking strides. This is a brilliant first-day interview! #zackpolanski #greenpartyleader youtu.be/RhD2ZuKrXPg

Salutations and mad props to whoever it was that went out overnight and tore the racist rags down from the lamp posts around the Littlemoor roundabout. Maybe Heyford Hill next?! #Oxford doesn’t need those shitty #EnglandFlags.

Draw the line. Join the Green Party today ⤵️ join.greenparty.org.uk?utm_source=s...

All the UK media and most other commentators making daily references to the Union Jack. It’s only a Union Jack when it’s flying on the mast of a ship of the fleet. On racist, bigoted white land, it’s just the Union Flag.

Exactly this. The true, (to my mind not-very-well-) hidden agenda. This is stripping away a vital layer of defence against American-style, fully commercialised health and social care.

This whole summer only one story has dominated our entire politics & it comes down to literally 30,000 people in hotels. Ridiculous. The government needs to get a GRIP it’s pathetic.

This, by @jasonhickel.bsky.social, is the clearest explanation I have yet read of why the US and UK governments continue to support the Israeli government, regardless of its great crimes against humanity. jasonhickel.substack.com/p/why-does-t...

100% this. Don’t get swept along by the torrent of sensationalist, divisive, racial hatred-inciting shit that spews out of Reform.

Imperialism and racism are central to the capitalist world economy. The barbarism is a feature, not a bug.

Nothing says “taking back are freedom” and “are country, are choice” like the widespread, gratuitous display of allegiance to the King. The lords have their peasants exactly where they want them.

Exactly this. I don’t think the renewables sector has figured out how to keep making money off the chosen renewable after the initial investment. It would require a major rethink to turn it into a cash cow productive enough to compete with fossil fuels.

Haven’t seen or heard anything about Ukraine in quite a while. Are we only allowed to support one oppressed territory at a time or what?

Tax wealth, not work! If we can extinguish the wildfire that is wealth hoarding, then it would make so many other fires so much easier to fight.

Everyone should watch this. Especially everyone who can vote in their national leadership elections. This is the public information video most of us didn’t realise we needed. Fantastic work, as always, by Gary Stevenson 👏👌

Well, @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @rachelmillward.bsky.social got my vote, and, from what I’ve seen here today, they got a LOT of other people’s too. This would be a formidable combo….hoping it’s the one we end up with come the end of August!

Until this year I always felt the Green Party was one that had nice ideas, but would never amount to much. Then I started to see @zackpolanski.bsky.social prolifically posting everything we want and need from a real fight back against the establishment. #JoinGreen & #BackZack, he’s the real deal 👌

This is really very good. One of the clearest expositions of generational inequality and what drives it (largely housing costs ofc) - also helped challenge some of my assumptions and see things from the perspective of my parents' generation.

For the avoidance of doubt, yes, *all* Microsoft products are absolute dogshit. There is not a single thing that they do well.

I wonder how broadly it is understood that supporting environment initiatives is also beneficial for causes that don’t appear to be connected, like human rights, economic equity, access to healthcare. I feel like there’s still a commonly held view that such issues are siloed.

Would love to see a big new wave of people choosing to #JoinGreens and #BackZack. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to crack open the door to a fairer, more ethical society. You will never get this chance from Red or Blue (or faded blue).

Bankrupt countries don't have welfare states. On @lbc.co.uk just now

UK MPs to tighten laws on foreign political donations. Donations are bribes to buy influence whether from home or abroad. Normal people can't compete. Give democracy a chance. Cleanse politics, criminalize receiving/giving donations. No second jobs for MPs.

A couple of years ago, the buzzword of the moment was ‘disingenuous’ and it was used (misused) with abandon. NOW is the time. 2025 is the perfect year for disingenuous to be on speed dial. And we can start with calling out all the moral arguments that are presented in question form. 1/2

The big whinge fest making out like Starmer’s Labour is actually worse than the previous 14 years of mental Tory leadership is getting annoying. Yeah it’s not exactly great, Kier looks like a pretty limp head of state, but really…..Cameron, May, Truss, Sunak. Surely we didn’t forget how they were?

Happy Canada Day to all the Canadian contingent. It’s really difficult when you have to live with shitty neighbours….you all are doing a solid job! #canadaday #mapleleafs

Trump’s US has become the world’s hyperactive arsonist without a cause. You never know what it’s going to torch next. Maybe you, maybe your neighbour. Maybe itself. There’s no way of ever knowing where the next fire will fall.
