In my lifetime I hope to see: 1. Scotland & Wales as independent nations 2. A united Ireland 3. Renationalisation of utilities & railways 4. Removal of the private sector from our NHS 5. The end of the monarchy 6. Tony Blair in prison 7. A Free Palestine 8. Trident scrapped

Looks like @AdrianRamsay is still pissed at getting his arse kicked so badly in the leadership hustings. A case for deselection, methinks.

Since when did provocation make us safer? How moronic can you be? Let’s just plant a target on our backs and play a game of nuclear chicken.

Extraordinary overreach. What are they thinking? They're going to arrest the people driving pensioners and priests to a protest where they intend to hold up a sign? People who give them water? People acting as legal observers?

Well. We shall see what Adrian says - I hope this is misreporting. But can we be clear that there is no contradiction between speaking out for human rights and for nature. Why on earth would environmentalists tolerate genocide? Humans being nature after all! People and planet. Both.

If you're from an left-wing party and you're briefing The Times about factional issues, you have lost your political compass. It's fine - and appropriate, and good! - to have disputes about strategy and tactics and ideas. It's productive to debate and contest positions and organise collectively. But briefing The Times is not doing that. It's running to a media that wants to see the Greens destroyed or irrelevant, and helping them.
This is from Adrian Ramsay briefing the Times today. Adrian and Ellie, who will almost certainly lose their seats, and Carolyn, will have to answer for the deeply dehumanising language they’ve relentlessly directed at Green Party members. They should be under no illusion that people will move on and forget.

The 'Zionism is Racism' motion passing is the best thing the Greens have ever done πŸ’š And electing Adrian Ramsay is one of the worst. Held back @TheGreenParty from becoming a *real* force for change for people & planet #BackZack

Brave protesters AGAINST GENOCIDE are arrested While politicians and those in the media who support and enable GENOCIDE are left in comfort DARK times in the UK
BREAKING: BLANKET ARRESTS BEGIN OUTSIDE US EMBASSY The Met Police began making arrests before any signs were on display, arresting volunteers like this woman for supporting people holding signs, and arresting people for having blank placards.

This is the slightly more genteel, Green Party version of what the PLP, Labour Together and the party bureaucracy did to Corbyn. This isn't complicated. If every time large numbers of, primarily young, idealistic people become enthused by politics and seek to engage in the political process you tell them go away, you are not wanted and call them entryists - it is really, really bad for democracy. thetimes.com/uk/politics/art…

Many of those who worked behind the scenes to undermine and betray Jeremy Corbyn and the genuine Labour movement are now so prominent in the Government. Burnham himself replacing the treacherous Starmer as they turned the party Tory πŸ”΄
I have to kick myself to remember that once upon a time in 2015, Jeremy Corbyn trounced Yvette Cooper, Andy Burnham and Liz Kendall to win the Labour leadership. I mean trounced them by a country mile. And yet here we are, eleven years later with Burnham installed as an unelected Prime Minister and Cooper and Kendall holding and having held down senior Labour Party and Government positions despite genuine concerns that they’ve been seriously out of their depth in all of them. And to see Corbyn, the man who inspired real hope for many, wrongly removed from said Labour Party. I despair at what the Labour Party has become, at what happens to any politician who strives for real change. @UKLabour @andyburnham @YvetteCooperMP @jeremycorbyn @leicesterliz

The Iran war has given BP its highest profits in 18 years. It has cost US households $2,000, and UK households Β£2,400. Fossil capitalism is based on a systematic transfer of wealth from workers to fossil capitalists. theguardian.com/business/202…

"Tackle poverty, not the poor".
Want to cut the welfare bill? Pay wages people can actually live on so working people don’t need benefits to survive. End the great rent rip-off. Build council homes instead of pouring taxpayers’ money into private landlords’ pockets. Tackle poverty, not the poor.

This is sickening. I thought Reform’s hangers-on were all about β€œProtecting women and girls”? My thoughts are with Ryan Dinnage’s victim.
32-year-old Ryan Dinnage, who was part of Nigel Farage’s security team, has been jailed for eight and a half years for raping a woman while she slept in a caravan. He was charged in 2025, was still protecting Nigel Farage in April and May 2026, and was convicted in June.

This idiot has been exposed as a fraud and a liar β€” he is a landlord with 6 houses. That was yesterday. So of course, the BBC ignore that and put him back on television tonight to plead his pretend poverty caused by… paying his staff properly.

When we had just the slimmest chance of changing things for the better, Marsan stretched every sinew to prevent it. He is like liberals everywhere: they only demand change when there is no chance of getting it.
Eddie Marsan railing against inequality & trickle down economics We had an opportunity to introduce mild social democracy that would have started to address these very issues & people like Marsan spent years trashing it. Now he's back to proclaiming his progressive credentials.

Ed latest: "Those with weakest shoulders should bear greatest burden. The disabled, the poor, the sick, Millions of ordinary working class ppl. Hard luck, Labour's not on your side. Let the rich get richer! Let the bombs fall on innocent babies" Don't be like Ed Vote Green πŸ’š
Labour will reverse the millionaire's tax cut because those with the broadest shoulders should bear the greatest burden.
