The problem with this, is that whilst they're voting against him, they are broadly voting in line with public opinion. He's sending them a message, but he's sending a stronger, more consequential message to us

Today is 3 months since Who Wants Normal? was published. Thanks so much to everyone who’s bought a copy, left a review, or shared a favourite quote on socials.

As the news cycle has become more toxic, this is a book that says disabled people are here, worthy and rather glorious, actually.

A copy of Who Wants Normal? sits on a wooden table. There are some flowers and a blanket near it, for arty reasons.

Yes, agreed. Do you think the Greens will start poaching disaffected Labour MPs, or will they join Corbyn's thing?

mention climate change. You'd think that with 3 heatwaves already this summer now was quite a good time to mention that!
Also the old dirty power producers get massive tax breaks/subsidies, plus electricity is over-taxed compared to gas.
This sort of thing is why Labour lose votes to the Greens.

huge swathe of south London had the Green Party in second place. What is to stop all those rebel MPs just joining the Greens? Green policies are more like what Labour's used to be. Are you aware of the Green Party are actively seeking defectors? Thanks.

@andrewsparrowgdn.bsky.social seeing my MP Bell Ribeiro-Addy having her Ghana trade envoy role removed despite her Ghanaian heritage shows how vindictive the Labout whips are. Is it because she posts consistently about Gaza? And also opposed the Welfare Bill I think. Anyway, at the last election a

Such a great series, really well done guys. I think you should go to 25 series then stop when you've done Champion of Champion of Champions. Otherwise you'll have to do 125 series and even at the prodigious rate of output you have I don't think Alex and Greg would last that long 🤣
