⚠️ Best for Britain CEO, Naomi Smith: “Farage has stopped at nothing in his race to the bottom, including orchestrating a disastrous Brexit that 62% of voters now agree is a failure and normalising a strain of intolerance that risks ushering in a far nastier and more dangerous politics."

Farage is doing what fascists do. Claiming the "will of the people" or "his people" is more important than the law.

This is amazing; 40 women’s organizations standing in support of trans people’s human rights against this government’s targeting of trans people against the EHRC transphobic code. Trans people and cis women’s rights are not in opposition.

“Things change in this country when ordinary people say 'we demand change'. This is one of the issues that is starting to feel louder and louder at the moment. I think there is that level of consensus that we can't carry on with the system we currently have.” 🗨️ Angela Rayner on LBC this morning

It's too early to rule out (or in) until we know what they stand for chimes with our Green Party focus to end rip off Britain. But Labour continuing to work with the very people who have wrecked our country and our economy cannot be the answer. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Crofton Park (Lewisham) Council By-Election Result: 🌍 GRN: 44.9% (-7.5) 🌹 LAB: 44.5% (+13.9) ➡️ RFM: 4.3% (-0.8) 🔶 LDM: 3.5% (-2.9) 🌳 CON: 2.4% (-3.1) 🙋 Ind: 0.3% (New) Green HOLD. Changes w/ 2026.

1/2 At a time when the Trans+ community continues to face real hostility in the UK, things like Trans+ History Week really matter. It shouldn’t need saying, but transgender, non-binary, gender-diverse and intersex people deserve to feel safe, respected and included.

Great coverage of our Pyjamas Party on Sunny Sunday im @brixtonbuzz.bsky.social Thanks you. www.brixtonbuzz.com/2026/06/pyja... #WakeUpWestminster

Fantastic day to Wake Up Westminster yesterday. Great responses allround. #WakeUpWestminster #MakeVotesMatter

FUN IN THE SUN Enjoyed waking up Sleepwalking Politicians near Westminster #WakeUpWestminster

Cippenham Green (Slough) Council By-Election Result: 🌍 GRN: 24.5% (New) 🌳 CON: 24.2% (-19.9) 🌹 LAB: 21.3% (-6.9) ➡️ RFM: 19.5% (New) 🔶 LDM: 10.5% (+1.0) No Ind (-13.3) or HER (-4.8) as previous. Green GAIN from Conservative. Changes w/ 2023.

The jerseys also say "Ceci n'est pas un maillot" ("This is not a jersey") on the back. Perfect detail.

The CEO of @makevotesmatter.bsky.social, Emma Harrison, has said that putting proportional representation in a manifesto "is great, but the urgency is greater than that" leftfootforward.org/2026/06/andy...

If the next general election is held under First Past the Post, we could get a government that 25% of people voted for. Or we could end up in a situation where the winning party is not the one that got the most votes. This is an emergency. Proportional Representation can't wait - we need it now 🚨

Tony Blair. What the billionaire class have paid for.

This is an absolutely unworkable mess. It's going to end up having to be withdrawn, *probably* over cis people being 'wrongly' challenged over facilities. Given how easy it is to see that shitstorm coming…how's it been issued in this form?

What the government is doing to trans people is a society-wide version of Section 28. It is a level of bureaucratic cruelty that utterly decimates a whole group of people’s rights and puts anyone who doesn’t ‘look’ right in the eyes of others under constant surveillance. It’s a horrific thing.

Castle (Lancaster) Council By-Election Result: 🌍 GRN: 70.0% (+4.9) 🌹 LAB: 15.7% (-10.6) ➡️ RFM: 10.9% (New) 🔶 LDM: 3.4% (+0.0) No CON (-5.3) as previous. Green HOLD. Changes w/ 2024.

💥 70 MPs have backed the amendment to fix our broken voting system. This is huge - but we need many more to have a real impact and get a step closer to winning Proportional Representation. Check if your MP has signed, and if not, email them using our tool 👇

💬 “Burnham also repeated his backing for proportional representation in Westminster elections, claiming it helps build a "new politics and a different way of thinking” @andyburnham.bsky.social also told @itvnewspolitics.bsky.social yesterday that this would mean a manifesto commitment to PR

Britain has crossed the multi-party Rubicon. First Past the Post is producing chaotic and deeply unfair election results. Just 16.5% of councillors won majority support while millions of voters go unrepresented. It’s time for electoral reform. drive.google.com/file/d/1J1XB...

I share the worry of trans people at the prospect of PM Wes Streeting. At Health he ignored the voices of young trans people and restricted gender-affirming care, causing harm to a generation. It is up to Labour to choose its leader, but members must also choose a better direction on trans rights

🎙️Our CEO Emma Harrison was on the Shelagh Fogarty show on LBC, discussing some of the results we've seen today: "If Labour were really bold, they'd think about democratic renewal and say, let's talk about changing our voting system."

Absolute chaos in Milton Keynes. The Lib Dems won the most seats - despite coming FOURTH in vote share. Do we need any more evidence that First Past the Post isn't working?

A please @labouruk.bsky.social, stop saying that it's up to us to stop Reform. YOU could stop a Reform government in 2029, by introducing the proportional representation so many in the country have been clamouring for. The only way Farage can win is through our crazy first-past-the-post system.

Lib Dems have an entire monopoly, which means no opposition councillors to scrutinise how they spend taxpayers' (your) money. If our voting system was proportional, this would have been the make-up of the Council in Richmond: Lib Dems - 28 seats Conservatives - 10 Greens - 9 Reform - 5 Labour - 2

Local “Democracy” results from Richmond & Twickenham. 51% gives single party control. ‘Control’ as in EVERY SINGLE SEAT for one single party. No opposition No challenges No alternative views. We need Proportional representation for local elections When do we want it; NOW #WakeUpWestminister

LONDON YOU MUST VOTE TODAY

💯 "The contours of politics are in flux. An electoral system that looks incapable of reflecting that change undermines the integrity of British democracy." 🌹 Yes - and that's why we need a National Commission on Electoral Reform

💥Growing numbers of experts warn political fragmentation is breaking First-Past-the-Post ahead of the Local Elections “British politics looks more fundamentally different than it has done at any time in postwar history” Sir John Curtice @thechrismasontv.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

“What you get when you vote Green are local, very hardworking councillors who are absolutely committed to two vested interests - people and planet.” Green Party Deputy Leader Rachel Millward contrasts Green councillors with other parties on #BBCQT

It seems like Zack Polanski was being modest here: Greens are actually first.

What do we get when capitalists are scared? Fascism. I spoke with @naomiaklein.bsky.social about capitalism’s worst mood and how the left is doing better than we think we are. Listen to the conversation here: www.themaybe.org/podcast/how-...
