"They had a wide range of views"

'every prime minister that we, the press, said would be amazing has turned out to be complete shite. therefore the country is ungovernable.' no. you're just politically illiterate and you keep shithousing the worst politicians imaginable in to number 10 via massive, sustained, propaganda operations

It is probably worth pointing out to Britons that the immigration proposals now being made in the UK by parties like Reform are far more extreme than anything even Trump has suggested in the US, and Labour has not only miserably failed to oppose them but has actively egged them on.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is spot on here, the Greens aren't splitting the left vote because this Labour party isn't left wing.

"This is an historic victory.. two party politics is not just dying, it is dead" @zackpolanski.bsky.social speaking in Hackney where @zoegarbett.bsky.social is the new mayor.

One from the archives. "If you don't like the changes that we've made, I say the door is open, and you can leave"

What was the last week of terrified screaming at the Green Party, if not a firm recommitment that nothing to the left of Sir Keir’s Labour will be tolerated and, if our politicians and media outlets are forced to choose between left and right, they will start prepping for the transition to fascism?

Wow, I can't believe Labour's tactic of yelling "DON'T VOTE FOR THESE GREEN CUNTS, THEY'RE DANGEROUS, VOTE FOR US, WE HATE IMMIGRANTS IN A BETTER WAY THAN REFORM!" hasn't led to them keeping all their council seats.

NEW: I’ve written a call to arms. Journalists are being murdered in unprecedented numbers by a Western ally that operates with total impunity. Enough. Publishers & editors have failed us. But if we can’t speak up about this, what is journalism even for? open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

they really have pushed the lever all the way up to "absolutely any old bullshit"

drunk driving may kill a lot of people, but it also helps a lot of MPs get to work on time, so, it;s impossible to say if its bad or not,

I wish we could skip to the bit where Starmer's gone and centrists have stopped writing desperate thinkpieces about how Wes Streeting is strong and stable leadership that will save Labour.

1️⃣ There's a sharp uptake in people claiming to be life-coaches now online. They will fix all of your problems including dread of pending WW3 for a fee... Here's my FREE advice to all:

BBCs coverage isn't just misleading, it is inflammatory. It has predictably been latched onto by the far right and others, including this government, to call for even more restrictions on those seeking asylum. Along with others, I explain here how wrong it is 👇 www.thenational.scot/news/2602505...

So this is genuinely the extent of the BBC’s front-page “investigation”: they spoke to one alleged crook and recorded him boasting, one victim of apparently unrelated abuse, one non-immigration lawyer who “thinks” there’s a problem, and Jess Phillips. It’d be laughable if it weren’t so serious 7/

Call me a pedant but I really think if BBC is going to make this inflammatory stuff headline news for two days (and counting) they ought to have a bit more evidence than this, and since they don’t you have to wonder what the purpose is of trumpeting it all over the place 5/

Here's where you can register your dissatisfaction www.bbc.co.uk/contact/comp...

The first part of this consists of one (1) alleged crook apparently boasting about his abilities to scam the Home Office, and then there's an awful lot of dark & generalised “some people fear that X” and no (0) examples of people successfully staying here on a false basis 2/

It’s genuinely staggering how little substance there is to today’s instalment of the BBC’s attempt to create a national crisis out of a few unproven allegations of immigration fraud 1/

This BBC undercover 'sting' alleging a sophisticated conspiracy of fraudulent immigration claims is complete rubbish. Their main story isn't about a lawyer, just 1 unethical creepy woman who brought a stranger into her bedroom to fleece him for a fake claim that would likely have been refused anyway

Also, if you don't think there's an ableism problem on the left, you need to make friends with more disabled people.

This shit has been driving me insane. None of the major papers or politicians discuss this calculated contradiction in terms designed to drive us all into early graves. 'You must work' but 'We won't help you stay in work or enforce discrimination laws'.

Cornish Mazraa Beirut just now. Israel is bombing throughout Lebanon

There is no ceasefire in Lebanon. Israel has been bombing Lebanon non-stop since last night. If anything Israel is expanding its war on Lebanon. You are being lied to

Thankfully Trump has climbed down for now. We've seen once again exactly who Keir Starmer & this Labour Government are. Silent - other than the Wireless Festival - even in the face of the US president threatening to wipe out a civilisation. And our UK bases still being used.

🚨Italy detains our rescue ship #Aurora despite 71 people missing since the horrific Easter shipwreck in the Mediterranean. After rescuing 44 people stranded for FIVE DAYS on an abandoned oil platform, we now face a fine of up to €10,000 ➡️ sea-watch.org/en/italy-det...

“We’d welcome a crackdown on illegitimate use of badges to safeguard the deserving users.” Staggering the AA put this out there on Blue Badge use. Talk about fraud if that’s an evidenced issue, sure, but “deserving” rhetoric in current climate is just dangerous. www.theguardian.com/money/2026/a...

Who deserves a Blue Badge and how shall we decide?? A reality TV show in which a different “cripple” is voted off each week? A fight to the death in the public square? Dunking them under water to see who floats? Can’t wait to see how this develops!

If an Iranian soldier was stuck in the mountains in the US, the UK, Israel, or Germany, & every American or British or Israeli or German boy or man from 16 to 60 walking within 3km of him was killed by drones, would any politician or media call it anything other than murder?

It seems the only person who doesn't know the UK is heavily involved in illegal attacks on Iran is Keir Starmer (or maybe, just maybe, he's lying!) "The UK is not involved. Is it ?" via Bahia Mokrani

Today, the Italian coastguard brought 19 bodies ashore! 19 people died on their search for land because Italy and the rest of the EU are denying safe pathways to people seeking asylum. In total, at least 104 people died in the Mediterranean over the last 3 days. 104!

What the US is purposefully doing to Cuba should be considered genocide.

Horrifying. Jesus Lord in heaven.

Turns out lowering bills, protecting the NHS and rebuilding our public services is really popular. This is just the beginning - people are seeing through the attacks and demanding something better. And we're making hope normal again - together. news.sky.com/story/greens...

So the BBC did an article about a Muslim man who got hideous racist abuse for appearing in a “Welcome” advert at Heathrow airport… …and they included this passage. What the actual fuck is wrong with them?!

Well, call me polarising but you will find me on the side of anti-racism, anti-fascism and democracy while you can be in the somewhat racist, fascist and authoritarian camp

Dear @lucympowell.bsky.social, I have enjoyed our exchange of letters about which of our parties is best placed to stop Reform. Hannah Spencer MP and I trust that you agree that this question has now been resolved once and for all. Thanks, Zack Polanski

It's so hilarious that they're trying the whole "extremes on the left" thing when everyone just watched a plumber with totally regular degular liberal politics get elected. These people are utterly cooked in the media political London bubble, they think everyone hates trans people and drugs.
