🔄 We are here to replace Labour. ✅️ Join.greenparty.org.uk

Another council meeting, heated courtesy of the hot air pumped out by the Tories Reform fully backed the Tory white paper Again proving there's nothing different about reform, it's just a more extreme version of the Tory Party, backed by the same billionaires working for the billionaires!

Labour really don't get it. The local Labour party in Reading have started putting litter picks and nature restoration on their leaflets, completely misunderstanding the threat.

The BBC must reassert its independence and learn to resist political interference and stand up for robust scrutiny and news values. The Culture Sec Lisa Nandy must also resist Trumpian pressure in appointing the new DG. It's messy and the Beeb is in trouble, but we should fight for its future.

Trump is now promoting right-wing channel GB News over Britain's flagship national broadcaster. GB News has been repeatedly sanctioned for misleading and conspiracy theory content. The Telegraph has faced a stream of press watchdog probes for misleading reporting, particularly on the climate.

Michael Prescott, behind the leaked dossier, is a corporate lobbyist and former Murdoch press man. The BBC belongs to all of us here in the UK. It is still highly trusted and vital. It doesn’t belong to the US, shady think tanks, or vested interests in the media. It needs to grow a backbone.

The former Chairman of the BBC, Richard Sharp, helped secure then-Tory PM Boris Johnson a loan for £800.000. And still there is a pattern of right-wing attacks on the BBC. Johnson and his top adviser Cummings wanted the BBC destroyed. They did not hide it well.

Went on LBC News earlier to discuss the BBC shambles. I said the BBC has kowtowed to Trump in the US and conservative outlets here - both of which want the Beeb dead. Two of the most senior people quit over a 10-second clip using Trump’s exact words, albeit put closer together than he’d like.

We all need to appreciate the lunacy of ostensibly British 'patriotic' outlets cheering on a foreign leader threatening to bring down one of our country's most valued institutions.

The left-wing bias claim is nuts – Davie, a former Tory candidate, had overseen the BBC drawing up plans to win over voters of Reform UK, as my Byline colleague @adambienkov.bsky.social reported in June. BBC board member Robbie Gibb helped set up GB News - which is now cheering the Beeb's turmoil.

Let's make this happen. Together. www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/pol...

🔴 The Public Wants to Ban ‘Politician Presenters’ Like Nigel Farage But Ofcom Isn’t Listening The broadcasting watchdog is refusing to act despite research suggesting a majority of viewers oppose politicians like the Reform leader being allowed to host current affairs shows

Inspired by @zackpolanski.bsky.social I joined the Green Party today. I like his honesty and now more than ever we need a loud voice in opposition to Reform.

Nigel Farage has finally admitted to it. But now there's lots more questions especially considering Rupert Lowes intervention.... leftfootforward.org/2025/10/nige...

Just made a solemn visit to Mary Shelley's grave in Bournemouth. Wonder what she'd think about resting within ~50m of a Wetherspoons with a TKMAX on top named after her.

We have this experience with Labour in the Reading Borough Council chambers all the time. #solidarity

You've inspired a few more verses in me @greenpeteru.bsky.social! Some a bit light, others a bit more wistful, but all hoping to illustrate the universality of the human condition.

Epic stuff, nice headline and even better story reminding everyone that Labour are bought and sold.

Great to have the Independent with me outside Labour Party Conference! Always great when a journalist sees lots of Labour members & councillors asking for selfies and what the defection process is! 👀 www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

When the Black Death killed half of the UK work force the Government responded with the Statue of Labourers (1351). This made sure that the labour shortage didn't lead to higher wages for the bereaved. For real change you've got to hit the rich where it hurts; the number of immigrants is irrelevant.

Alright alright, I've done it.

I.e. don't want to be an incel, first thing fix your politics, as that shit is apparently quite unattractive

Re: the point he made on young men being attracted to the far right in the hope of becoming successful, such as with the ladies. And the irony of them looking for love at a Tommy Robinson sausage fest when actually the young women they want to impress are skewing towards the Greens...

Ah, and the comment thread is so wholesome! Nice to see people speaking to each other with joy and hope.

One man accompanied by three (3!) officers on a commercial flight. That is a very expensive and Tory way to win zero votes while empowering the far-right. Safe routes needed to save lives and money. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
