Hi, I’m God. Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Thanks, God

A lighthearted but accurate take on how the BBC push Farage and Reform at every opportunity. Source: Stephen Collins in Insta.

Same here. Most media pundits are too close to those in power and have become part and parcel of the tired and failed status quo. Zack Polanski and the Greens are a force for necessary change. Plenty of people from all backgrounds and ages are yearning for meaningful change.

Nigel Farage says he wants to 'raise aspiration' by cutting the minimum wage for young people (currently £10), but reducing tax for young people earning over £100k. Presumably he wants them to just ask their stockbroker fathers to fix them up with a job in The City, like he did.

Partly because so many formerly leftwing parties have turned to the right, there's a lot of confusion about what right and left mean in politics. I hope this helps: The right defends economic power. The left resists economic power.

Proving yet again how closely he studied Goebbels.

This is part of the 'grown ups' framing of the centre right. As if integrity and solidarity were 'student politics' it's a plank of the post Thatcher platform that enraged me when she did it, and has just got worse. The Greens under Polanski are taking the hard road to a just and hopeful future

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103. 12 days of work in 103 days. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

🔊There’s NO standing authorization for attacking Venezuela. Per Art. I, Congress has war powers & WPR requires authorization or real emergency. *Neither exists.* Dictator in WH is manufacturing emergencies abroad to bolster political narrative at home. Congress MUST cut off funds & force a vote.

this is insane. www.kivitv.com/canyon-count...

Patchwork is LAUNCHED! Here's an exclusive look at the tapestry I unveiled at The Cartoon Museum. It was epic! #janeausten #graphicbiography

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House. Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity. They are not the same.

The GOP in Congress are worse than useless. They are craven enablers of murder.

Hypocrite

It's always been a myth that your enemy comes from below. Kings, used other countries, to deflect from them. Nazis used Disabled People, Communists, Roma and Jews. Now Billionaires use Disabled People, Immigrants and Pensioners.

Are the right ok? This is next level of "journalistic* " slop. Join.greenparty.org.uk

The Epstein Ballroom is Trump's Deathstar, indeed

Didn't take long for "Stop the boats!" to become "Stop the blacks!"

That's racism. Plain and simple. No other word for it. It's shocking beyond belief that this sort of thing is somehow acceptable.

Cuomo keeps suggesting "a 9/11" could happen if Mamdani was mayor. But THE 9/11 happened when Giuliani was mayor and it was back when he was America's Favourite Mayor. I don't know, lads, I think Cuomo might be doing a desperate racism.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

I scarcely have the words to express my admiration for @cartoonkate.bsky.social 's book Patchwork: A Graphic Biography of Jane Austen. It's a true masterpiece, astonishing in both concept and execution, funny, sharp, moving, beautiful. Austen would have loved it. share.google/XEcT3gIgILHI...

If Labour leadership really cared about stopping the right, then they'd bring in proportional representation. But they won't. They care about power more. However, since there is no way I will vote for war criminals, if Labour voters really want to stop Reform, they should join me in voting Green.

If Labour is continuing to lose votes, just got 11% in a by-election in a seat they've held for 100 years and in a few recent polls is equal to or just behind the Greens maybe we should stop suggesting they're the only thing that can defeat Reform.

Vote Labour to keep Reform out is a busted argument.

Lol

Swear her in. Release the Epstein Files.

Am sick at how my team, and my city, have been dragged into this. Birmingham is a great multicultural city.

So. The weird thing about the trial of Soldier F is not that he was acquitted. It is that he was not charged for the correct crimes. The Saville Inquiry found that he definitely killed Michael Kelly, Bernard McGuigan and Patrick Doherty, and possibly also William McKinney...

Come to the launch of #Patchwork, the amazing, beautiful new book from @cartoonkate.bsky.social about #JaneAusten, and see the wonderful quilt that makes up the middle bit of the book At the @cartoonmuseum.bsky.social in Soho on Tuesday, the 28th October www.instagram.com/p/DQJjEiBCpUg/

Ooh... I see there's a new graphic novel form biography about to be published. I loved @cartoonkate.bsky.social's biography of Rosa Luxemburg. Now she's created one on Jane Austen. www.hive.co.uk/Product/Kate...

Oh, that is amazing.

Some are querying whether Andrew can renounce a dukedom without an Act of Parliament. But you can parse a duchy and he’s left outside. Good night.

Apropos of nothing, I really do think UK journalists and politicians need some reminding that mass deportation of LEGAL immigrants, particularly those with permanent status, is far more extreme than even Trump's America and would basically place Britain completely on its own among democracies.

A *Conservative Party politician* calling 80s hooliganism “largely good natured fun” is absolutely fucking incredible

Would like him to have to personally explain this deranged nostalgia for good old-fashioned British football hooliganism to a group of elderly Conservative voters

Bloomberg seem confused. We're not confused. Tax the billionaires. Join.greenparty.org.uk

These people (in this case the Tories) are absolutely mad. I sincerely hope that everyone with settled status accesses their very very legal right to vote.

Starmer should never have got involved with the decision of the local authorities in Birmingham regarding the Villa match and linking it to anti-semitism was idiotic. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

We might ask how the centre and right uniting to defeat the anti-racist left - by screaming accusations at them about their supposedly Hitlerian racial hate - has somehow become a consensus of centre and right xenophobia and racist incitement, with unified support for genocide and ethnic cleansing.

This new book by @cartoonkate.bsky.social is a breath-takingly beautiful thing: I'd go so far as to say a work of genius. It's my privilege to be interviewing her about it at the East Gate Bookshop, Totnes on 23rd October. Please join us if you can: www.totnespulse.co.uk/product/tick...

The @ima-maths.bsky.social seems quite proud they invited BAE to speak at their conference. I am so so disappointed that an institution which normally funds sweet creative maths projects and supports maths communities has chosen to platform BAE Systems which produces munitions used in genocide.

Totally agree
