I'm at my mother in laws 80th birthday party down the Legion. YMCA, Hokey Cokey, Jump Around, what's next?

A military, merchant weasel sounds patriotic enough AND wildlifey enough to please all camps. Quick! Stick it on a £5 note!

Hospital waiting room. The TV is just loud enough to be distracting and annoying - but not loud enough to hear the actual words being spoken. This is the worst volume level.

Dragged myself from my sickbed to the Royal Albert Hall for Nightmares on Wax. My God its good. It's every bit as good as I didn't dare hope it might be. What an audaciously slick production! What a great sound. 🔊 🔊 🔊.

I wonder which of the album's covers he claims to have designed?

What an incredible maiden speech. Big up @greenpartyhan.bsky.social !!!

Who are your candidates for banknote pictures? Mine are: £5 - Joe Strummer £10 - @carolinelucas.bsky.social £20 - Benjamin Zephaniah £50 - David Bowie

Happy International Women's Day, friends. youtu.be/O35PTBEw8F8?...

Reform Party canvassers just knocked on my door. My wife gave them the very shortest of shrifts.

🔥 🔥 🔥

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.

Interesting article about #Reggae sound systems in Wales.

Green age kicks. Fantastic Feargal Sharkey. What a legend.

Just had my first caffeine coffee in about 8 weeks 🚀 👩‍🚀

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 The Green Party has over 200,000 members. More members, more councillors, more MPs. The Green Party just keep growing. Join us ⤵️

As journalists working today many of us are taught to recognise disinformation when we see it and fight back against it. Unfortunately there are some who willingly seek it out and put it on their front pages. A disgrace to the profession.

Heaven forbid that Labour should seek to copy any of the policies of the Greens after they just overturned a 13,000-vote majority in one of Labour’s safest seats. Let’s just call those voters ‘sectarian’ and ‘extremist’ instead. That’ll work

Except Labour did move to the right, Wes - on immigration, banning protest, ‘island of strangers’, attacking nature protections, etc - chasing a tiny number of Reform switchers whilst ignoring its core vote, and never talking about its more left wing economic policies bsky.app/profile/alex...

Deaf as a post (with an upside- down union jack attached)

Lmao

@zackpolanski.bsky.social you handled such a hostile interview so perfectly, on zero sleep, after the world's most intense byelection campaign. I hope you get some well-earned rest and relaxation soon. Absolute legend.

Feels like a #ska type of morning youtu.be/2ySxLlkV63s?...

Apologies to all of Hannah's customers! Something exciting is happening. Be a part of it ⤵️

Wow! SO happy. What an EPIC win!! Congratulations @greenpartyhan.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social @greenparty.org.uk www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

We asked people across #GortonandDenton what they care about. Hate and division won’t help pay our bills. We need politicians that champion real solutions #HopeStartsHere manchesterfoe.org.uk/blog/gorton-...

Keeping everything crossed for a @greenparty.org.uk victory in Gorton and Denton today. I've got the very silly song: 'I Fell In With A Female Plumber...' by Splodgenessabounds going round and round in my head: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eR7q...

Zack Polanski Calls On Labour To Apologise For Inventing Fake Tactical Voting Company www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/zack-p...

Seriously dirty tricks from Labour in Gorton and Denton. For clarity - ALL of the REAL tactical voting sites are recommending a vote for the Green Party to keep out Reform. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/labour...

Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social, Why did you invent a fake tactical voting company to stop the Green Party beating Reform? I'm starting to think your letters haven't always been in good faith...

Remembering Ed Cobb on his birthday. He wrote Tainted Love, Dirty Water and Every Little Bit Hurts, which guarantees him hero status round these parts. Here's a playlist featuring his finest compositions and productions 🎧▶️ open.spotify.com/playlist/2c7...

Working from home proving more stressful than I feel is necessary

#Reggae question. Does anyone know please, what the vocal cut might be, to this wonderful dub, on the wonderful 'Big Showdown' album? youtu.be/5PgnN3bNwl8?...

#NowPlaying Just discovered a CD of rips of Earl 16 - 10" records, that I didn't even realised I had - and it is excellent. Every now and then - being massively disorganised pays off

✅ Tactical voting organisations ✅ Doorstep data ✅ Constituency polling It's clearer than ever that it's Green vs Reform in Gorton and Denton. A vote for Hannah Spencer is the only way to stop Reform's hate and make hope normal again.

It would be more fun if the four man bob was restricted to teams of four men called Bob. All events should start at 8:08 - obvs.

Well that seems unfair.

In the Olympics- when they say 'amplitude' - do they simply mean height?

The betting has the Greens at 1/2 and Labour at 5/1. If you actually want to keep Reform out, rather than making a rhetorical point, you can only rationally argue for Labour to step aside.

This time next week, we'll hopefully have 25% more Green Party MPs. Go @greenpartyhan.bsky.social !!! 🤞🤞🤞

Wood burning pollution leads to 8,600 premature US deaths a year, study finds

This campaign is about hope vs hate. United, we can make sure Greens defeat Reform.

So it turns out Matt Goodwin's Reform campaign manager was a holocaust-denying Nazi who said he would "never touch a Jewish woman.” When do we start seeing all the coverage of the antisemitism crisis in Reform UK? www.jewishnews.co.uk/reform-uk-su...
