Love this from Russell Tovey. "I’m really following what the Green Party are doing, and I think we should all get behind them. As a community, they’re a party that we can really look to, to represent us.” www.attitude.co.uk/culture/russ...

The Guardian editorial today reflects the reality for millions. Bills soaring. Wages stagnant. People pushed to the brink. We don’t have to accept this. It’s time to do things differently. join.greenparty.org.uk

Google Maps is really really shit now

Good. Although justice demands that he should have been thrown out. In fact he should never have been let in. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge believed the exact same thing.

This is Reform - taking healthcare away from you to make money for private insurance firms. Reform hate you. They just want your money to go to their rich friends. Don't ever vote for them.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Any updates on how that's going?

There is no value in the Nobel Peace Prize any longer. Any future awardee or nominee should reject it. If I had one I'd send it back. The nature of right-wing politics is to take good things and make them shit.

Farage wants to bring Trump’s death squads to the streets of Britain. Together, we will stop him. www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news...

"America is an oil company with an army." —George Carlin

look, I may not agree with every decision our president makes, but he is our commander in chief and I will defend to the death his right to be impeached, removed from office, arrested, stripped of his wealth, tried for his crimes and thrown straight the fuck into prison

The USA is a rogue state. Trump is a felon who poses a clear and present threat to global peace. He must be removed, and all nations place sanctions on the USA. Of course, this won't happen, because oil and money.

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

People aren't leaving the Labour Party. The Labour Party have left them. I spoke today with Sky News - live from Swindon. youtu.be/hJ0EJTakhxU?...

@zackpolanski.bsky.social stopped by #Handsworth yesterday and was welcomed by @edfreshwater.bsky.social of #BrumGreens in front of the #BenjaminZephania mural to show what a vibrant, diverse, integrated neighbourhood it truly is. Don't let anyone tell you #Birmingham is not multicultural and proud!

Just finished watching #BBCQT. @zackpolanski.bsky.social was fantastic and seeing the audience respond so positively really gave me hope. Proud to be a Green party member. 🌱💚🌱 (Just hope Zack is getting enough sleep and personal time - he's doing too important a job to risk burning out.)

We just hit 93,000 members. We're polling on average higher than we have ever before. Over 1000 people joining a day! Join our movement. Join.greenparty.org.uk

So much energy from Green Party Conference. Great to hear about all the local parties in England & Wales calling up their new members, inviting them to action days and getting people involved. Let's go! 💚🚀 novaramedia.com/2025/10/07/z...

@onlyinbirmingham.bsky.social #Handsworth could teach @RobertJenrick how to live in a global society. #BenjaminZephaniah - spirit of #Birmingham - said "Handsworth for me is...where I learnt all my skills, my communication skills, my hustling skills, my poetic skills, everything."

Saw this in a charity shop and thought of @kermodemovie.bsky.social ! "Everyone's a critic, but only one can be the best"

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician. He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales. A Brexit Party MEP. A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him: "terrific," and "as honest as the day is long." This is a MASSIVE story www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The 4 people who did this 'Led by Donkeys' were arrested for this as 'malicious communications' But it is just facts.

@simonmayo.bsky.social The most recent segue into the @kermodeandmayo.bsky.social Laughter Lift was a thing of utmost skill and beauty. Jokes remain utterly stinky.

DEI makes rockets fly 🚀🤎

Exactly my take, and he's much more likely to get media exposure because, aside from their obvious right wing bias, he has a bit of click bate-ability

That a Labour Prime Minister has to send his front bench out to argue that his paraphrasing of a far-right racist wasn't as racist as he meant it to be... Bin Labour, go Green Join.greenparty.org.uk #backzack

Well that went pretty well!! 💚🙌🏼

"In my defence" cackled the Prime Minister, "it was obvious from the outset that I was a scorpion who was lying about my fundamental nature; in many ways it's Corbyn's fault that I'm poisoning you all. After all, being poisoned is kind of a change..." www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I'm sure they are just giving him this $400million gift with absolutely no expectation of reciprocal favours in any way shape or form...

We need to be absolutely clear about the human cost of this policy. More ambulances stuck outside A&Es. More patients dying in hospital corridors. More suffering. More misery. More patient harm. Because Starmer has chosen to prioritise cheap headlines above improving society. Way to go, Labour.

It's funny isn't it, if all the 'low' skilled workers like Care Workers, Health Workers and farmers disappeared we would all starve to death and die. But if all the 'high' skilled workers, like Bankers, CEOs and Politicians disappeared we wouldn't even notice.

The softly-softly approach has got us this far, but with Reform on the march and Labour giving up ground to the right, it's time for us to take the gloves off. That's why I #BackZack for the leadership
