Zack Polanski has been banging on about this for ages. Nice to see Starmer has just realised it might matter.

Trump is literally a Trump/Mamdani voter.

We hope everyone flies free this weekend. BTW, the name Elphaba is a reference to "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" author L. Frank Baum.

Reform's former Leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, a 10.5 year jail term for taking bribes from the Kremlin. Cosied up to authoritarian powers & traded principles for payoffs. Reform's leadership laughably claimed they barely knew Gill. Will all this be on tomorrow's front pages?

BREAKING: Reform UK's former Welsh leader and close Nigel Farage associate, Nathan Gill, sentenced to 10 and a half years in prison for repeatedly taking bribes to spread pro-Russian propaganda

🎉 Green WIN! 🎉 🌹 to 💚 💚 Congratulations to John Knight on being elected in Macclesfield Central Ward!

Green Party victory! Macclesfield Central by-election in GAIN from Labour

This is a direct order to Trump's fascist army to execute an identifiable person... and his history implies a presidential pardon will be granted to the assassin, should they be jailed. This is a capital crime by POTUS, even if his order is not successfully performed.

NEW: Just the President calling for the execution of his political opponents. Watch absolutely zero front pages cover this tomorrow.

You'd think the President calling for the execution of political opponents would warrant some type of news alert.

Trump calls for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged

The left has a problem with political violence. Anyway, here’s the President of the United States saying his political opponents should be executed.

Trump is now calling for the death penalty for his opponents. Impeach!

He's openly calling for elected officials to be killed. Impeach this maniac and throw him out of office.

Oh shit things are getting febrile

Welcome to the Green Party, former Labour and Co-operative MP for Brighton Kemptown, @russell-moyle.co.uk 💚

The Green Party announces that former Labour MP, Lloyd Russell-Moyle, has defected to them, after being de-selected by Keir Starmer's party last year "My old party has left behind millions of people who want hope... In the Greens I see a party that is offering that," says Russell-Moyle

Entitled to lower bills. Entitled to a liveable planet. Entitled to make hope normal again. Know your entitlement. Know our collective power. Join.greenparty.org.uk

BREAKING: Among 2024 Labour voters, 35% have a favourable opinion of Zack Polanski, 11% have an unfavourable opinion of him. 2024 Labour voters say Polanski is more net favourable than: Keir Starmer Ed Davey Jeremy Corbyn Rachel Reeves Zarah Sultana Nigel Farage Kemi Badenoch (YouGov, 16-17 Nov)

The Mayor of London has told me in public just now he supports scrapping the two child benefit cap - when the Chancellor can afford to do so. I asked him if he'd support a wealth tax on assets - and he refused to answer the question. Labour always supporting the 1%.

Maybe Labour bashing the Green party and Polanski is a bad idea...

Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives lost to violence. The Green Party stands shoulder to shoulder with transgender people in the face of increasing transphobic rhetoric in our society and politics.

Getting all this snow now but then there won't be even a sign of frost on Christmas Day 😅 13C galore

The Guardian are reporting a significant increase in Jewish people voting for the Green Party. It's almost like many of us grew up learning a history of persecution & violence. We don't oppose the Genocide in spite of being Jewish but because of it. Never again for everyone.

@festivevibes.bsky.social New McDonalds ad with the Grinch just premiered on I'm a Celeb - can't find it on YouTube yet

Thanks Stella. 🙌🏼 Join.greenparty.org.uk

@festivevibes.bsky.social Granted this is Australian, but this may probably be the McDonalds advert for this year (or thereabouts)

It's international men's day, men are suffering from social isolation as a result of breakdown of community, the pressures and strains of being a man trying to fit into societal expectations can feel tough. We need to feel like we can talk more

Under-50s Back Green Party as FIRST Choice in Latest YouGov Poll.

28% is absolutely huge.

Huge. And I meet more and more over 50s too who will be voting for the Green Party as well! Join.greenparty.org.uk

I mean, not really

Six months ago, before Keir Starmer's "island of strangers" speech, the Greens were polling at 9%

Almost 1 OUT OF 2 18-24 year olds are currently supporting @greenparty.org.uk, The highest number ever recorded.

"Had Attlee been constrained by today’s fiscal rules, he would have had to shelve the Beveridge plan and the NHS would never have been born. Generations of Britons’ lives would have been blighted – and shorter", writes @mrmarkethomas.bsky.social

Highest polling ever received from YouGov for @greenparty.org.uk!

Is the new politics Polanski vs Farage?

For anyone feeling deep despair - I get it. There is hope, though. And Green Party membership is continuing to rise every single day. That's thousands and thousands of people coming together to demand change & to make hope normal again. Join.greenparty.org.uk

It’s not only bigotry from a small minority of people. It’s the politicians who for years made life harder for ordinary people. Standing by as the NHS struggles, our schools crumble, the cost of living goes sky high. Instead of taking responsibility, they’ve pointed the finger of blame at migrants

In 2020 Keir Starmer and Alf Dubs urged the then Conservative Government to restore their commitment to family reunion for child refugees, saying there was a “moral argument” to protect desperately vulnerable young people. Five years later Dubs condemns Starmer for doing the complete opposite

"Polanski was joined by many Labour MPs in opposing the government’s plans, although most of them are thought to be prepared to reluctantly support the measures." What's the point of being in Labour? Join.greenparty.org.uk

Ridiculous. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Asked if Keir Starmer believes British people want to "see refugee children pulled out of school and deported after 10 years in this country”, his spokesman says that “what the British public wants and what this government was elected on a mandate to deliver was to secure our borders"

If you're still coming at me with "hold your nose" or "it's a comms issue" about this filthy, racist, fascist #Labour party, I have my best slappin hand warmed up for you. ✋

In Parliament today I said the asylum announcement scrapes the bottom of the barrel and is a desperate attempt to copy Reform. We should be taking the fight to Reform - not trying to outdo them.

It’s like Polanski has broken a spell. This is great if you care about human dignity and wellbeing but definitely threatening to those in power. All strength to him.

The way this Govenrment are treating some of the most vulnerable people in the world is disgusting. And they the audacity to pretend it's coming from a place of compassion and concern. Their only actual concern seems to be dancing to the tune of the far right rather than tackle inequality.
