Thanks to those who organised the 'Stand Up to Racism' event in Stockport. Inspiring. Struck by the genuinely pathetic nature of the few counter protesters; Elon's Puppets, desperately trying to provoke, filming & regurgitating racist nonsense. They'd be nothing without Starmer & MSM on their side.

It's astonishing how far neo-lib'ism has infected the establishment & is causing their downfall. "Bow to the markets, democracy is dead" leads to fascism to defend the indefensible. Before Thatcher & Regan invest to grow was normal. We need a "New Deal" to save democracy and avoid Climate Breakdown

“If you go back a million minutes, you reach 2023. Go back a billion minutes, you reach the Roman Empire — that’s the scale of inequality we’re living with.” Zack Polanski on #BBCLauraK discussing inequality and why a wealth tax should be in the budget

I mean, why would you stay?

At the Budget, the Green Party's message is clear: Cut Bills. Tax Billionaires.

Nations will be competing for migrants soon, and they will choose to go where their families have the best opportunity to thrive #NomadCentury

Horrendous argument! The logic is that if only white immigrants were allowed to come to help work for our econ that would be better for 'people who look like' her. It's not an argument about immigration at all! It's race! It simply says if we do the racism for them maybe they'll relent with theirs!

Labour’s immigration plans could cost the NHS 46,000 nurses www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

"How they made us doubt everything" on how the Tobacco Industry conspiracy to confuse public understanding of science was adopted by Big Oil. Now with MAGA & the international far right truly through the Looking Glass it's interesting to hear how they did it. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

VERY funny that Labour are being pointlessly cruel and haemorrhaging support from their base and yet none of what they're offering is ever going to be enough for the people whose approval they're seeking, WHO could have predicted it

Wow! the rabbit hole is really deep! Some really deranged people becoming more and more influential on the right. Scary. Of course the silver lining is that anything that splits them and/or exposes their hideous views will hopefully hasten their defeat. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Let's have a look through Starmer's broken promises.

After another week of banging on about immigration, Keir Starmer's ratings fall to their lowest ever level. At what point do Labour strategists start to think that maybe this isn't quite the winning strategy they believed?

A Government of cowards. Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution. They can't get away with this. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Starmer’s anti-asylum policies show how utterly clueless he is about the right-wing media’s role in politics. He’s trying to fix a “problem” contrived by Farage, GB News and The Telegraph. He’ll never win, because ultimately he’s fighting a ghost – he’s fighting something that doesn’t really exist

Wow! Excellent speech opposing targeting immigrants! There must be a PhD in Psychiatry in this for someone! Even if it's naked self-interest there must be a personal justification as long as War & Peace to volte-face, in just 7 yrs, to the extent that you earn Tommy Robinson's endorsement.

Labour are destroying this country! They could have defended the social democratic consensus but instead are trying to out-Reform Farage and are fracturing the significant majority who abhor the far-right. This will be the legacy of the Last Ever Labour Government- and we will all suffer for it.

If you are still in the Labour Party after this; shame, shame, shame on you! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If there had been an agreement with Farage about how to pave the way for a far-right government and agenda, how would things be different?

It's time 'still Labs' had an exit plan. They are already tarred with the betrayal of the party & its voters. An article I can agree with but the question to SC is "what are you going to do about it"? You're trapped whilst in what used to be the Labour Party. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is a new low from a govt plumbing the depths of performative cruelty in hopes that the public won’t notice they have no answers to the real issues facing this country A sensible, humane govt would focus on safe routes to prevent people making dangerous small boat crossings

'Still Labs' hang your heads in shame! How can you continue to back these appalling people? Worse attacks on migrants- especially legal migrants helping this country or escaping confirmed persecution!- than the Tories could ever have dreamed of getting away with! www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

I can only imagine how frustrating it must be for Labour that voters refuse to recognise the difference between the government's progressive, well-intentioned racism and the destructive, toxic racism of Reform and the far-right.

I had supported Labour, despite its glaring faults, for over 40 yrs and finally left after the "Incalculable damage" speech - but should have done over Gaza before that. I imagine that most members joined to make the world a better place. This entrenched leadership is making things worse.

Maybe a little bit less time playing politics and a little bit more time looking after the NHS wouldn't go amiss, Wesley? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

What is truly pathetic about Labour is that this is all they have got. They have failed so spectacularly already, despite a whacking great majority, to even attempt to govern positively that all they have is punching down on marginalised groups and saying "oh but Reform will be worse".

Here we go again. Gun to foot once more. Is there no bottom to which the Labour will not sink to seek to appease unappeasable racists? Obviously not. Why were these people ever allowed into the Labour Party to destroy it from within? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Hugely complex & important! Many factors but one is the impact of repeated Govts' politicisation of narrow, classical visions of what 'quality' means in mainstream ed culminating in Gove's catastrophic exclusive agenda & its impact on mainstream ed's values & culture www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"The man who sparked chaos at the BBC by criticising Panorama’s ‘misleading’ edit of a Donald Trump speech also doctored Trump’s quotes himself in his controversial report, making them seem far more benign than they actually were."

I wonder why? "the double standard that dogs politics: leftwing policies are typically portrayed as unrealistic and childish, while the centre and right’s ideas are framed as sensible and all that’s possible" Politicians and MSM in the pay of the oligarchs? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Lisa Nandy's influence on the BBC is indistinguishable from the Tories who preceded her. Genocide denying & Israeli Government/IDF defending (other than the usual Starmer lip-service). Robbie Gibb can't be that far from her politically www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Never one to be worried about hypocrisy!

Yes, absolutely there is an impartiality crisis at the BBC. But it's not the one the billionaire media insists it is. novaramedia.com/2025/06/16/b...

20yr attack on BBC 1) finance-attack licence fee, defund exempts & World Service 2) turn impartiality into 'balance' not fact checking/challenge-feature dark-funded right wing think tanks 3) smear with 'metropolitan elite' vs Brexit popularism 4) key Tory personnel-Robbie Gibb, Davie &pal Kuenssberg

The world needs Dem Leaders to get on board or step aside! A Fascist US is the greatest peril the planet has faced since '63 Missile Crisis & worse in the long run. Progs need to accept that Fascism is a qualitatively worse capitalism vs 'lib dem'; with concessions won over generations. Unity needed

Efficiency savings- as 'policy' rather than simple good management- are the first refuge of a scoundrel! Poor article- nothing at all on the costs (staffing & huge econ disruption) of their evil deportation plans(a la ICE) or links with dictators/anti ECHR & Trussism www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Interesting what Labour consider econ'ly 'realistic'. Cutting disability benefits ✔️, Hold 2 child benefit cap ✔️, maintain corp tax lower than income ✔️ bankers' bonus cap @2x salary 😱, 2% tax on billionaires 😱! Worth remembering the US had record growth 65-81 as the top rate of US income tax was 70%

Capitalist lib democracy is a balance. It needs a middle class & limits to the exploitation of wkers to avoid existential challenge. Dem&Lab leaders are too close to the corporates & don't protect these resulting in their own collapse & the alt of naked oppression www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I had supported Labour, despite its glaring faults, for over 40 yrs and finally left after the "Incalculable damage" speech - but should have done over Gaza before that. I imagine that most members joined to make the world a better place. This entrenched leadership is making things worse.

Woah! So Labour's position really is, 'telling us off for breaching human rights undermines the case for human rights'? Proper Trumpian stuff from Labour's answer to Suella Braverman.

I saw this and felt it was relevant, for next time the fascist sharks start to circle bsky.app/profile/koll...

Zack Polanski exposes the fake populism of 'elites' #GreenParty #NigelFarage

🚨BREAKING: Activists have imprisoned DANGEROUS TERRORISTS Mandela, Gandhi, and Millicent Fawcett statues in Parliament Square. They've been placed behind bars to expose the UK's extreme crackdown on protest. The heroes the government celebrates would be imprisoned today under their extreme laws.

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?...
