Extraordinary to see the Greens polling five points ahead of Labour and the Tories and closing in fast on Reform. Clearly the Zack Polanski effect.

"Of those who voted Labour [in 2024], just 37% would vote Labour again". Read that again to absorb the full, astonishing weight of what it means. Starmer, Reeves and co have burnt their house down. news.sky.com/story/greens...

Exposing the complicit M$M

Well, no, they’re not just as wrong. The bigger error is not seeing that “trying to win over voters from a party on the opposite end of the spectrum, whose values your core voters oppose” is not same as “chasing voters from party on same side ideologically whose values your core voters like.”

The only worthy response I've seen from a Democrat.

Wes Streeting likes to say he's following the evidence - but in fact he's following the bigots. We know it and he knows it.

Trump has nearly secured his position as dictator. He openly ignores courts and Congress. He has a massive state propaganda network. He has his own private army. He has a controlled opposition party. Intelligence and military have shown little pushback. And he is working on elections.

"UK, Germany and France have condemned Iranian attacks on countries in the region saying Iran must refrain from indiscriminate military strikes" They did not comment on US and Israeli attacks Beggars belief, but just what you would expect from these US lapdogs www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Anyone who spends any time on an NHS ward knows that it’s staffed by people from the four corners of the world. People working 12-hr shifts delivering front-line care, with good humour, dedication, and grace. Of course we’re working hard in government to destroy that. Of course we are.

Now there is hope! It's no longer a choice between grim and grimmer. We can vote for who we want and win. Anywhere. It's just one constituency, but the Green victory in Gorton and Denton is an electric shock to our political system.

Successive interviews by Nick Robinson this morning perfectly sum up the BBC: with Zack Polanski: sneering, aggressive, constantly interrupting. with David Bull, Reform's Chairman: polite, nodding along, barely any interruptions. Amazing. Will share the link when it's up so you can listen too.

AI chipmaker Nvidia reported $120 billion in profits over the last year, in part thanks to Big Tech’s massive data centers. Meanwhile, monthly electricity costs have skyrocketed by as much as 267% in areas near data centers. Big Tech barons are getting rich while everyone else pays the price.

Great result. Brilliant victory. Well done @greenparty.org.uk! Good to seee Labour trashed!

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Obviously I can't vote in the Gorton and Denton by-election, but my support is 100% behind @zackpolanski.bsky.social and Hannah Spencer. The Labour Party are looking increasingly obsolete, and Reform have increasingly shown their true colours as the party of racist and misogynistic self-interest.

But it is indeed broken! Good news, though: it can be corrected in November. Vote en masse; take back our government with a solid veto-proof majority in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. End Trump's destruction of our democracy and filling his pockets with our tax dollars.

It's U.S. foreign policy that the whole world must serve up our data to the AI giants that are now an arm of the U.S. government. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

One of the best parts of the SOTU. Classic.

Dirty Business- Channel 4’s exposé of England water companies shows abuse of corporate power, failed govt policies and human suffering. It has got worse Thames Water may pay 2024 fines in 2030 or never. Fines on others waived. Say NO to profits B4 people. Let companies go bankrupt. Nationalise.

1,200+ people became sick after swimming in designated bathing waters in England, 75% of those official swimming spots rated “good” or “excellent”. Sewage dumping continues. No penalties on water company execs. The state can't guarantee clean water. archive.ph/QGyF2

Four years have passed since Russia's full scale invasion of Ukraine. Russia was supposed to win in three days. Instead, Ukraine reinvented modern warfare, built a drone industry, and can destroy a thousand Russian soldiers in a day. Ukraine can win.

The only time Jeff Bezos ever paid tax was when his ex-wife hit him with a 50% Wealth Tax. 🤣

Really, genuinely, sad to see Black and Brown voters support Farage - believing he can be trusted not to screw them over. I hope people remember what happened last time.

Unions enforce your employment rights. Unions can help if you’re discriminated against or mistreated by your employer. Reform doesn’t want you to have that help. They don’t care how badly you’re treated at work. They’re taking the piss out of you. You should mind. giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

The notion that rich people can't be taking bribes neglects the basic fact that they're rich because they're unscrupulous greedy bastards.

A third of the US people approve of Trump, according to polls. A third of you US people like this shit? Help me understand. 🇨🇦

BREAKING: The moment Peter Mandelson is arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office The 72-year-old was led away by police officers and taken to a London police station for interview

"Funny how Nigel Farage made very little mention of this brand new appointment last week. James Orr is the new "Head of Policy" for Reform UK, responsible for planning how Reform will take over the government of the country. What could possibly go wrong?"

Trump is threatening war w/Iran and @kamalaharris.com is silent. So is @gavinnewsom.bsky.social + @petebuttigieg.bsky.social + @jbpritzker.bsky.social + @chuckschumer.com + @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social + @joshshapiropa.bsky.social + @corybooker.com. They all take AIPAC $$ Israel wants war.

euobserver.com/198457/87-da... Orban is finished! A 12 point deficit is too large to cheat and successfully conceal. If he does it anyway, Hungary will be suspended from the EU, then his regime will be overthrown.

In any other administration, this would be a HUGE story! But in this regime, it gets lost with the daily onslaught of corruption.

Billions of your tax dollars are going to Palantir — and the police state it's helping Trump build could soon be used against you.

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals. That amounts to $456,621 per hour. But how are you doing?

Why is the BBC interviewing this ****? Have they forgotten he was thrown out of No. 10 by HIS OWN PARTY for being a corrupt monstrosity? Who fucking CARES what he thinks about Ukraine?

Most Britons can't make political donations/bribes and are made to suffer. 14.2m live in poverty 120,000 a year die in fuel poverty 300,000 a year die prematurely awaiting hospital appointment. Poorest 20% pay higher proportion of income in tax than the richest 20%. Is democracy possible?

Every British voter should know who James Orr is and what he stands for.... His ideologies are what a Reform UK government would actually deliver if they ever gained power #ShowOrrTheDoor

You can smell the Labour Governments panic. They're trying their hardest to discredit the new poll because it tells everyone that the alternative has well and truly arrived. Gorton & Denton is the Green Party Vs Reform.

Hinkley Point C is now expected to cost EUR 55bn in today's money. That's a whooping 17,000 €/kW. Or about 10x the per-kW price of a wind turbine and 30x solar. Nuclear is a lot of things, but one thing is it not: cheap.
