Farage only debates establishment figures because his job is to perform dissent, not practice it. A real debate with @zackpolanski.bsky.social would expose the pro-capitalist consensus he shares with Starmer and Badenoch The 'choice' they offer is an illusion!
Gorton & Denton is between the Green Party and Reform.
And Farage knows his candidate is weak as.
Hannah Spencer for the win.

This, my friends, is how it happens. This is why we don't get what we want, or what we vote for.

What's the outcome that terrifies Labour most in the Gorton by-election?
Reform winning?
Nope. It's the Greens they're most worried about.
They'd prefer Reform to win, rather than the Greens.

The ultimate disgrace is the government abandoning veterans. Sent to imperialist wars, then betrayed by Veterans UK with delayed claims and insufficient pensions. Our bodies mobilised, then discarded by bureaucracy. This is systemic class violence. Solidarity with all fighting for what's owed.

Greenland proves the point: NATO's idea of "security" sacrifices local sovereignty. To expand a US base, the alliance overrides Inughuit hunting rights and sidelines Greenland's government. It doesn't work for the people it supposedly protects.
When we said NATO wasn't working we were derided.
When we said a nuclear weapons system relying on the US is dangerous we were called stupid.
The truth is the establishment are more interested in kissing US feet than keeping the UK safe.
It's time for a rethink.

How can ecology be for everyone when green choices are a luxury good? Over a third of the UK can't afford them.
The Greens' answer is to flip the script: tax extreme wealth to fund a public-led transition. The question isn't personal virtue; it's economic justice.

Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, “Move, move, move.”
So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?
