Andor's costume designers looking at Shabana Mahmood's outfits and thinking hmm maybe we were too subtle

Just take a second to think how Labour would talk about being beaten by a plumber from a working class background in Bolton if they were a man.

They aren’t perfect, and neither do they have to be given how deeply flawed and compromised our other options are, but the reaction to the Greens in recent days shows it is them, not Reform, who are the only legitimate anti-establishment party.

If Reform had won, Labour's statement would be that this result is a stark reminder we need to listen and learn from voters who rightly feel betrayed by modern politics. But the Greens won by a comfortable margin, so it's: these voters are stupid and also sinister and, ugh, Muslims

The noise coming from Labour / Reform / The Media implying that "We didn't get what we want therefore there might have been cheating!" feels like a inadvertent admission of "We didn't get what we want despite our cheating!"

Israel is also bombing Lebanon

These people are all here because they believe, deep in their soul, that this is shit hot politics that the public need and love, and anyone who disagrees ought to be arrested. You could no more get them to change course on this than you could get them to turn down a free Taylor Swift ticket.

Yeah, having now slept on it properly, it is weird that no losing parties statement really reckons with why people might have chosen the Greens and instead they all chose to blame sectarianism. It does suggest that they still don't really recognise people who vote Green as, you know, real people.

The NFF is an oddity in world football: it is a genuinely democratic emanation of its football. Should those motions be passed (which is likely), its president Lise Klaveness will be duty-bound to espouse them and confront Fifa - as she has done before. More NFFs = no Infantino, simple as that.

Sociopath class.

Can’t tell if this person is American or a Starmer fan.

Waking up to news about the USA most days like this:

There are 70-odd days until the May elections when Sir Kier finally goes and if this maniacal letter is anything to go by we are in for some real posting between now and then

Labour MP Ian Byrne: "The lines from the PM and Cabinet today essentially labelling the Green Party as extremist is appalling, desperate and frankly embarrassing. "It also makes very clear that the leadership has zero understanding of where it has been going wrong."

That meme is never not relevant.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "Once again Reform are spreading misinformation & smears, and the press & the media seem to repeat them.. its really important that the media.. take responsibility so when Reform or Farage says something they don't just keep repeating it"👏👏👏

Its doubly galling because Starmer and Labour have (and not without reason) spent years insisting Reform curious voters should be respected and taken seriously. Then with the Greens they're all "LOL you've been taken in by those nutters, U morons, don't be daft." Its playground level ignorance.

This is not a reasoned political response. Labour has spent two years making all the voting groups who backed the Greens feel unwelcome and unheard, and now attacks them for daring to back someone else. They believe Labour isn’t listening and Starmer seems determined to prove them right

“Get her, Jade!”

Reform, which spent its by-election campaign warning about the UK's "Christian heritage" being under threat, while proposing a ban on visas from predominantly Muslim countries, now accuses their opponents of engaging in "sectarian politics"

Farage, Starmer, Badenoch today sound like big fat baby brats. Crack dens, Galloway, harvesting Muslim bloc, conspiracy voting, sectarianism, extremism. No wonder everyone in G+D was gagging to vote for a person who has a normal job and life. They couldn't look more pathetic and out of touch.

I was looking forwards to some Labour Cope but Starmer writing a raving letter blaming it all *George Galloway* is just beautiful, nobody could have predicted that

Even more insane - and a sign of how small-time and insular Labour politicians are - is blaming it all, somehow, on George Galloway. Never mind Green drugs policy, they should check the cabinet office for crack.

I don't think calling the people who voted for the nice woman who thinks working hard should grant you a decent life unhinged extremists is going to work out brilliantly for Labour.

So it's pretty obvious that the narrative the media will be running with for the next few years. A Reform win is a political earthquake and could they be the next government, if it's the Greens it's only because there was cheating, fraud and outright sectarianism.

He’s just Theresa May cosplaying as Postman Pat at a funeral, isn’t he.

Oh they're STUPID stupid

LABOUR: People are upset with us because it will take a long time to reverse 14 years of conservative damage, not because of anything we've done. We admit it will take a long time to fix those problems. THE PEOPLE: Actually we're upset about the things you've done. LABOUR: Shut up, crank.

“The Labour Party is the only party that can unite our country and our communities” bro literally everyone hates you

She mentioned in her speech about how millionaires fleecing us without regulation has climate implications

Family voting. Very concerning.

Are all the pearl-clutching centrists upset about the Greens sending out campaign materials featuring Starmer alongside controversial world leaders going to stop sharing images associating Farage with Putin and Trump or nah?

What Reform and their ilk don’t want you to know is that British Muslims are more committed to the values of pluralism, liberalism and democracy than they are.

Wait. So they’re trying to say that extremist Muslim men, who they presumably think want to implement sharia law, forced their families to vote for a blonde haired white woman, running for a party led by a gay Jewish man, who have policies around relaxing laws on sex work and decriminalising drugs..

RIP to a real one

Matt Goodwin this morning.

And some of us are keeping that tradition alive to this day.

Goodwin's petulance is hilarious, but it's also a warning that, for the far-right, they have no abiding commitment to democracy and value it only to the extent to which it allows them to attain power. If *we* value democracy, we must take the warning.

Absolutely this.

Very telling all the “stay in your lane” questions put to the Greens about them not talking about the environment enough. But how can you tackle the climate crisis without taking on billionaires and their interests? The Greens are getting serious about Green issues. This is what that looks like.

Smashed it

lol

Labour's swing toward racism is perhaps the biggest unforced error in British political history; burnt their base to ashes and won them not a single vote on the right.

I stood outside a polling station in Gorton and I don't know about family voting but I did see Reform asking voters for their address as they went in. Run that by your election agent Matt and see if its legal.

Taxi for Sir Kieth Stormfront

Presumably he thinks that there was “family voting” in Caerphilly too.
