If Greens start consistently leading Labour in polls, and beating them in local elections then the logic of tactical voting which Labour has been relying on could flip savagely on them. As Caerphilly by-election shows, "Only Labour can beat Reform" doesn't work if voters know it isn't true.

YouGov @yougov.co.uk · 3h

Our latest Westminster voting intention (26-27 Oct) has Labour on their lowest figure ever recorded by YouGov, with the Greens on their highest

Reform UK: 27% (+1 from 19-20 Oct)
Labour: 17% (-3)
Conservatives: 17% (=)
Greens: 16% (+1)
Lib Dems: 15% (=)
SNP: 3% (-1)

Zohran Mamdani represents the future of the Democratic party | Robert Reich

Democratic party leaders like Chuck Schumer refuse to endorse Mamdani. And The New York Times wrongly cautions against him. Both are wrong

We tried to place this story - very expensive polling, the first of its kind, strong quantitative data about what trans people feel about Britain: bluntly there is no better way to tell the story - with the BBC but it said it was "too weak".

But it will pick up any old piece of transhating garbage.

In @yougov.co.uk polling of the trans community, to the best of our knowledge the first of its kind ever conducted, an astonishing 84% said Britain is “fairly unsafe” or “very unsafe” for trans people.

Continuing to develop my skills of reduction printing and alignment. This has 6 layers of reduction, unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of each layer.

They likelihood is of you don't or won't tackle one form of discrimination you won't tackle another. Yes, they are separate discriminations but bigots tend to be be bigots in many areas

Surely as a Christian the caller would want to "protect all kids" including trans children? I'm sure if they actually followd Jesus's teachings they'd understand!!

🚨A RECORD 4.5 MILLION CHILDREN NOW LIVE IN POVERTY IN THE UK - a shocking & shameful 31% of all children

Ending the two-child limit would lift 470,000 children out of poverty NOW.

I’m joining Trussell in calling on the chancellor to end this cruel policy. Please join us🙏
