I've listened to @newsagents.bsky.social since it started. At first it was good to hear these 3 freed from the constraints of the BBC. But I'm now seeing just how much they themselves represent the ideological capture they're railing so much against. Maitlis and Tavistock is genuinely shocking.

Offsetting a flight doesn’t make it harmless Flight-free = more meaningful trips, local adventures, and a cleaner conscience 🌱✨ Hard? Yes. Worth it? 100%. flightfree.co.uk/post/should-... #FlightFree

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms. He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

Muppets who wasted loads of money inducing demand and making traffic worse consider doing exactly the same thing again.

Tories scrapped half of HS2, which without the other half would actually make many train times worse. People said “why don’t you focus on electrification of existing lines then” so now Labour, eager to proven they’re different from Tories, have scrapped all of that too.

I don’t understand the spite of it either! Feminism used to be about women not defining ourselves by our biology & fighting against sexism based on biological reductionism. What happened?

🚨 The Green Party announce that two London councillors, Guy Lambert (Brentford West ward) and Kath Whittam (Rotherhithe ward), have defected from Labour to the Green Party. 🔴➡️🟢

If you’re interested in making streets safer, check this video out. By simply adding modal filters, neighborhoods can eliminate rat-running traffic and make streets more peaceful. These streets can also act as safe thru-ways for people on bikes.

“People are rejecting the old party politics…but they know they don't need to go to the politics of hate and division. The politics of hope is where it's at.” Zack and Carla discuss why Bristol Cllr Al-Maghrabi has joined the Greens and why so many others are doing the same.

I’m sure Matt Goodwin will be along shortly to tell us all whether LNER Customer Service Host Samir Zitouni counts as British or not. news.sky.com/story/train-...

You laugh, but this is how the exododus went extinct

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx. It was a little different last week.

I stand with Cllr Adam, Cllr Makawi and all those suffering in Sudan. Our government must do all it can to stope the masacres in Darfur including stopping arms exports to countries which then funnel them to the RSF.

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.

This miyamairi kimono created for Shinto shrine blessings displays multiple white cranes soaring among stylized green pine branches and decorative wave patterns, all set against a rich black silk ground adorned with three golden mon (family crests). 1926-1940, Japan

The party who claim to be patriots literally had a Reform leadership member caught red handed taking bribes from Russia. This article details the speeches Nathan Gill gave that he was paid to give. How are Reform getting away with this? www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...

Gotta love Private Eye. Always cuts through the crap.

Reform UK's Matt Goodwin's response to Prince Andrew and Epstein is to talk about Pakistani grooming gangs preying on white girls Far right populists don't care about rich white men in grooming gangs abusing white girls #BBCQT

💚 Greens are in second place for (I think) the first time ever in a poll. 🥀 First we replace Labour. Then we overtake Reform. 📩 Help us get there: join.greenparty.org.uk

Labour is falling apart. Locally community alliances are picking up the slack, and Reform are proving they can’t operate local government, but we need to keep pushing for a national alternative. That is increasingly proving itself to be the @greenparty.org.uk.

🚨 NEW | Greens hit 2nd place for first time EVER! In a @findoutnow.bsky.social poll, the Greens are on 17%, beating the Tories, Labour and the Lib Dems.

We're just getting started. Time to lower bills. And tax billionaires. If you want to see the Green Party take on Reform - this is the moment. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Let's recycle ALL the tropes!!! "Look at Labour, splitting the vote." "Labour need to affiliate to the Green Party." "I'd vote for Labour, but they don't stand a chance here." "If those Labour voters went Green instead, Reform would be out." Do join in with your own!!

Erm.... I'm sure she had lovely things to say as she collected the award! I'm not going to spend my time at Spectator ceremonies collecting awards. We're busy taking the fight to Reform. Join.greenparty.org.uk

🚨 The @greenparty.org.uk have surpassed the @libdems.org.uk on aggregate in the polls! (Source: Wikimedia Commons) 💚 The Greens are climbing at a jaw-dropping rate, which cannot be matched at the moment. Next station: the Tory party. 🚉

So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform.... Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally. It's time for Proportional Representation. www.thenational.scot/news/2558507...

The Green Party SECOND in a national poll for the first time ever! There’s no way we’re stopping there.

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.

This from X is a striking example of what I argue in today’s column. Reform and the Tories are out here gleefully saying disabled people on Motability should be forced to drive a 3-wheeler, like a scarlet letter. The stigma is not an accident - it’s the design.

For the vast majority of people (except Ukrainians and Hongkongers) there is NO WAY to claim asylum in the UK without coming by small boat The only way to stop people making dangerous boat crossings to the UK is by creating safe and managed routes Govt's plan is delusional

3 things Starmer could do instead of camps in old barracks that would actually WORK👇 1. Create safe, regulated routes to apply for asylum in the UK 2. Let asylum seekers WORK & support themselves 3. Fast track status for people from obviously unsafe countries metro.co.uk/2025/10/29/k...

Still slaps, though I’m utterly heartbroken by its prescience.

This silk kimono presents a bold and dynamic interpretation of the traditional yabane (arrow-feather) motif through the innovative medium of silk-screening, demonstrating the period's embrace of modern printing technologies alongside classical Japanese design elements. 1912-1926, Japan

Good to see Green MPs help vote down Farage's attempt to destroy our rights against - torture - slavery and forced labour - discrimination - And rights TO a fair trial - freedom of thought, expression, conscience, and religion. ALL enshrined by the ECHR Proud to be part of such a principled team!

So proud of @alastairis.bsky.social and the @hackneygreenparty.bsky.social for calling out the Labour run council

My comment? I'm proud of Green councillors who are doing everything they can to bring attention to stopping the genocide. www.thejc.com/news/uk/hack...

Good lord! Let's stigmatise the disabled even more. They were death traps, and truly awful.

The Labour Party at every level is utterly without spine and principle.

Farage's motion on leaving the European Convention on Human Rights failed: 154 votes to 96 All 4 @greenparty.org.uk MPs voted against it, because we believe international agreements on human rights are a good thing. But only 63 out of 401 Labour MPs did: votes.parliament.uk/votes/common...

"But everyone knows what I mean when I say "bike"! While that may be true, when we talk about 'bikes' it's easy for many people to forget about those who need to use non-standard cycles such as trikes, recumbents and tandems.

This summer kimono showcases a striking geometric pattern that bridges traditional motifs with modernist sensibilities. The garment displays yabane (arrow feather) motifs rendered in alternating golden yellow and silvery blue-gray through the shibori resist-dyeing technique. 1926-1940, Japan
