I mentioned this in one of my conversations on Labour yesterday.

These extra costs will cost our NHS inbetween 1 billion and 3 billion pounds more PER YEAR by 2029!.

There was no vote on this shitty deal with Trump, the people most definitely are not happy about this neither should Parliament be!

Pleased to see the jury make this decision.

We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.

People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

Nigel Farage is going to "save pubs" by cutting 5p off the price of a pint of beer...

The £3 billion cost will be funded by reinstating the two-child benefit limit.

This might be the worst policy anyone has ever come up with.

Labour took votes for granted.

They've blown it.

Green Party want to lower bills, protect our NHS and rebuild our public services.

Vote Green - and stop Reform.

Starmer has little to offer voters of either right or left in Gorton and Denton. That’s why he’s facing a perfect storm | Owen Jones
The Greens are buoyant as Labour struggles. After shredding any semblance of a progressive agenda, fear of Reform is all the PM’s party has left, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Labour are just desperate for cheap digs. Why didn't they let Andy Burnham stand ?
A Labour spokesperson, responding to Zack Polanski’s interview with Laura Kuenssberg, said: "If [he] thought the Greens had a chance in Gorton and Denton he wouldn't have chickened out standing himself."

This is pretty weak IMO - Polanski is a serving London Assembly member and lives in Hackney...

Curse of Private Equity

Asda has lost its mojo and has a big fight to get it back.

Debt £3.8bn. Annual finance cost £611m. Staff/Wages cut. Low investment. Suppliers squeezed, less customer choice, assets sold-off piecemeal.

Market share down. Future?

Nigel Farage claims that he's fighting the Greens.

But for weeks now he's refused to debate me.

Reform know Gorton & Denton are ready to vote for the Green Party.
