“You can’t blame austerity on one hand, but then say it’s the immigrants. The immigrants haven’t caused austerity.” Zack Polanski takes on Reform’s Zia Yusuf over spreading of misinformation on #BBCQT

Deafening applause as Zack Polanski tells Zia Yusuf that people's concern over immigration is because he spends all his time spreading misinformation and fear. #bbcqt

Because that's who they are.

#OtD 9 Oct 1945 the UK Labour govt defended its jailing of 226 Spanish Civil War and anti-Nazi resistance fighters, describing them as "members of an enemy paramilitary organisation". Some killed themselves, others were deported to Spain for execution stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1094...

Govts repeatedly prioritise corporate interests over the public interest, citing innovation and growth as the pretext. Deregulated free zones are the most sinister and pernicious form of corporate overreach designed to exit democracy and bypass public participation in the decision-making process.

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

“If you remember better times / you know they were lies, because they led / to this” - Alice Notley

"The Green Party had a particularly strong conference season under Polanski... with a bold platform of nationalisation of major utilities, a wealth tax and stronger environmental policy." Power and wealth have taken our assets. We must take them back. insidestory.org.au/disunited-ki...

A record 1,611 people — including 11 children — died while homeless in 2024. Both Labour and the Conservatives have failed to fix Britain’s housing crisis. A home is not a privilege. A home is a human right.

Reform UK councillor Andy Osborn, already subject to a code of conduct investigation after he described some children in care as "downright evil," is due to appear in the dock at Westminster magistrate's court today, accused of publishing false statements about an electoral opponent. He seems nice*

"The escalating crackdowns under Starmer’s Labour expose not only its authoritarian instincts but also its political weakness. It is scrambling to shut down every avenue of opposition because it knows its agenda lacks legitimacy and popular support". tribunemag.co.uk/2025/10/labo...

My secret evil plot to ‘destroy Britain’ has been unveiled by (checks notes) the same paper that endorsed Liz Truss. If I don’t know better I’d say we’ve got them entirely rattled. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Utterly beholden to lobbyists, staggeringly ignorant and dismissive of the natural world: Rachel Reeves might not look or sound like Donald Trump, but she is behaving very much like him. This government is even more of an ecological hazard than the Tories were. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

You know those days when it's cold but the sun's out and you stand there, eyes closed, head tipped back, soaking up the warmth of the sun (apprecity). That's how to meditate.

"That's the difference a Green councillor can make." Co-Deputy Leader @mothinali.bsky.social speaks to Aaron Bastani of Novara Media.

If I'm honest I've waited my whole life to vote for a party like this, to be inspired like this, to actually start beliving that hope isn't a false prophet. I'll be 70 by the next election. The wait is over. join.greenparty.org.uk

Jenrick could have visited Handsworth to listen to residents – he chose to pass through and make a judgement based on the colour of their skin. Instead of getting to know our nation of neighbours, he chose racism. The Tories, Reform and Labour want to divide us. The Greens say enough is enough.

So according to Lewis Goodall Hitler wasn't a fascist before fascism came to Germany? @zackpolanski.bsky.social @lewisgoodall.com

Don't forget that 41 Tory MPs in the last government took Russian donations. That might account for media reticence to report on the Nathan Gill case.

A statement about the Peacehaven mosque attack from @cllremmaedwards.bsky.social on behalf of Bristol's Green Party Councillors:
