Lib Dems: let them work Labour: make them work

'centrists', liberals, whatever you want to call them who think that facts will beat out fascism and that science will win the day should be reminded of things like this they all keep saying transphobia is 'reasonable concerns' or 'common sense' while completely ignoring what scientists have to say

There's no way to describe this in any other way than moral cowardice. He knows what he's doing, he knows the effects this will have on people and he's perfectly happy for us to sleepwalk into fascism if it means he as a slim chance of winning a few racist's votes. Which he wont.

When I got the coroner report along with my funeral referral I was shocked at the litany of indifference and failures that pushed this man towards taking his life. Now that the inquest has finished, others can finally read about it too. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

I'm stunned to hear that #R4Today presenters do in fact have teeth in interviews; they're currently going for the Libdems. I'm surprised because whenever I hear them interview Reform they provide no challenge at all and come across as complete cheerleaders for them

This Thursday there’s a by-election between the greens and reform in Manchester. Whilst Lucy Powell’s pitch is in part about seeing these two groups off and sustaining Labour in working class spaces. I put a tenner on her not being seen campaigning there. Labour are predicted to come third.

Welfare reform 'must happen', UK minister says. Silence on corporate welfare. For example, Drax makes profits but gets subsidies. Silence on tax perks of the rich. Capital gains and dividends taxed at lower rates than wages. Welfare reform is a code for squeezing the poor, old, sick, disabled.

the uk has officially recognised palestine. 🥳 what’s that? are we still selling weapons and gathering intel for israel? stop asking questions. jus enjoy the vibes.

The annoying thing here is that the Lib Dems talk policy quite a lot and get ignored by the media, which is what Davey's stunts were a response to in the first place. I don't think he's addicted to stunts. I'm sure he'd love it if his policies got covered www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Recognising the state of Palestine so you continue to benefit financially from its’ eradication. Another big brained 4D chess move from the centrists desperate to keep their coalition of votes happy by making no true concessions that directly serve the plight of the Palestinian people.

The most dispiriting thing to me right now is the immense level of cowardice I see all over, at all levels.

Next time you see an anti-trans court case in the news, think twice about who’s behind it 👀

Very sad to learn that Keith AKA JD Twitch of Optimo has died after being diagnosed with a brain tumour. He was an inspiring DJ, brilliant compilation creator, and definitely one of the good guys. Photo taken at Wide Awake 2024. RIP

Groups including Sex Matters, the Safe Schools Alliance, Transgender Trend and the Bayswater Support Group of parents who advocate for abusing trans children, were all invited to contribute to the consultation 👇

Thing is, while Ed Davey has unusual ways of creating publicity, the Lib Dem’s policies typically have substance and are workable. Meanwhile, Reform is often treated as credible despite its policy agenda being two elephants short of a circus. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Morning Bluesky. Lib Dem leader Ed Davey is going full-on in tackling Musk. "He [Musk] is actually, I think, committing crimes," he told Laura Kuenssberg.

George Osborne was absolutely right that one problem is the corporation has “imperial” ambitions and this leads to it doing things that it just shouldn’t be doing, treating things as competitors which shouldn’t be.
