A proper fighter is Zack. Back him and the greens and take the fight for the soul of the country mainstream. Hold reform and the rest of the tories including Labour to account. The very least we should have is a proper opposition. I feel hopeful at least that will be achieved and reform kept out

Statistics already available and many studies have shown mass exodus for tax reasons just doesnt happen among the 1%. At last Study, 0.3% of millions leaving the country cite tax reasons. Such a bullshit myth.

I really want to know what Farage has ever done to help anyone except for himself? Brexit did less than nothing for anyone except to boost his self-esteem. He's nothing more than a puffed-up, self-important schoolboy grifting his way through life.

Farage is saying all teachers are Marxists. They're not. They just teach that we should care for one another. But that offends his fascist instincts. The result is he is turning on a profession that teaches about compassion and empathy - because he loathes it. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/10...

Nigel Farage’s declaration of war on teachers is a war on compassion, empathy and kindness

According to The Guardian, Nigel Farage, speaking at an event at a private Christian college in Michigan, USA, has accused teachers in the UK of “poisoning our kids” and predicted that they would go o...

It beggars belief how hard and fast the Labour Party has imploded under Starmer's clusterfuck of a leadership.

Anyway, let bygones be bygones. Labour are a busted flush, onwards with the Green Party!

A brilliant performance from @zackpolanski.bsky.social on #bbcqt last night.

Voters who saw it will be in no doubt that the Green Party is about way more than just the environment.

And that Labour and the Tories are done and the battle is between Reform and the Green Party.

Lest anyone doesn't know, given we know the chant that will be deemed most offensive, this: '... between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty'.

That is from Netanyahu's Likud Party's foundational document. Note 'only' and 'sovereignty', absent from the Palestinian...

You can lock up as many people as you want for chanting or protesting against genocide.

You will never scrub away the truth about that genocide - or your own complicity in it.

You are just ensuring that you will be damned all the more for what you have done.

Government could crack down on pro-Palestinian protest chants, PM says

Astonishing advance by the Greens, astonishing implosion of Labour. When will Starmer's government get the message that it is destroying its base with deeply unpopular, rightwing policies?

By chasing Reform, it legitimises the far right while delegitimising itself.
