I am now a member of @greenparty.org.uk It's early days, but I've been mightily impressed with @zackpolanski.bsky.social and his zero bullshit stance. I was hoping the @labouruk.bsky.social would be on the side of working people but they are failing miserably. Time for change. #greenparty

It's tough because owning media is expensive. We could copy USA & stop anyone not a UK citizen from owning national media and stop one person owning more than 25% (Murdoch owned 40% in UK at one point). Also treat social media companies as publishers like papers & thus responsible for their content

I can't help but think it's a bit more sinister than that. The effort they've made in promoting the con artist is quite something.

I doubt there is much love for Farage in the Tory appointee circles, but unpicking this may be detrimental to Brexit and various other right wing causes.

Most people seem to have missed who retweeted this picture of Farage in Gill’s office a few days after Gill began receiving his first bribes from Oleh Voloshyn (Oleg Voloshin). None other than…

Imagine if the greens got the same media coverage & hype like Nigel Faright's Reform?!

Media hype making it out as though Reforms got majority support to sway the floating voters.
Reality is most would prefer an alternative like the Greens who address real issues instead of pandering to xenophobia
