Just a reminder of what you said. "Erm , Starmer called them exactly that af his last conference speech. Open your eyes"
Clearly he didn't. Which is fine. Because as PM he has to hold back. No wonder you dont want to engage now.
We're on the same side. Read what people post before going on defensive

He actually used the word? Or danced around it?

You just need to watch his interviews he has done. There are enough of them. He calls Reform/Farridge what they are, fascists. Starmer would never do that. He can and does say things that Labour won't. I get why Labour won't. But Zack isn't so constrained, and it can only help defeat Reform.

Keep hammering away, Zack. You are doing great job.
If only journalists would do their jobs in holding Reform to account. Farridge's mask slips when you don't play to his game of deceit and exaggerations.
Angela Raynor resigning over a mistake (naive). Farridge openly dodging tax.

You obviously haven't watched his interviews. Also, you need to read up on how Green party works in comparison to mainstream partys. Its not up to him.
I'm not going to be voting Green myself. Only because I live in area which is Labour,& likely to fall to Reform. Reform are horrid.

In fairness, and you must know this as well. Starmer was/is taking the divisive topic of EU off the table. Hammering it home as well,to stop the dog whistlers and RW media derailing. It was understandable. There had to be a time where the bickering had to stop, and move on.

Paul Grundy 🐝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 @leyther70.bsky.social · 1d

We still have long way to go with the suffering before saying, "Have you had enough of Brexit yet?"
Keep Farridge associated with Brexit. And keep hammering it home. Veering the course towards EU again, plays into Farridge's game of dog whistling.

I think apathy is hugely damaging. Not bothering to take interest. I see messages on here about being fed up of politics. Which I get. But people need to have their eyes wide open now more than ever. Reform getting into power with 25 to 30% of the vote is crazy. Considering how extreme they are.

I went to CEX to sell my old phone. Agreed price. "Have you got ID?". I only carry my phone. Starmer's Digital ID was a yes for me yesterday. 😂
I still have open mind about it. If it includes diving license, and stops my NI insurance number being literally everywhere to be misused. Then maybe yeah

Of course not. Polanski calls out Reform for what they are. Its refreshing. Farridge is Oswald Mosley wannabe.

You can guarantee when winter has finished with these flags,it won't be the ones that put them up that takes them down.

Polanski wants clean politics. I think that is what we all want. Greens would only work with Labour if Starmer was gone, in my opinion. He's toxic on the left. He has made too many unforgettable mistakes/decisions,which will haunt his legacy by the time 2029 comes around.

We finally have someone that is unfazed by media attacks, and handles tricky situations so well. Hes refreshing change to what we have had to put up with recently. Only problem I see is the fact he is leader of Green party,which by his own admission will not come close to winning election

Trump inherited a ceasefire. Instead of building on that, he gave Netanyahu free reign to do what he wanted for months. Then everyone complementing Trump on a ceasefire that he already inherited. Only he has blood on his hands in between then and now.

Who will win next election? After the drawn out negotiations with EU to leave. Convincing 27 countries to go through it all again,when they have enough problems going on isn't going to happen. Starmer has zero mandate from the people to join. Reform look likely to win GE in 2029

Polanski was shutdown on QT as well when he brought it up.
Gill and Farridge basically was repeating Russian propaganda as MEPs. Gill got paid, but Farridge wasn't? I find it hard to believe.

Where is the lie? Corbyn said he was remaining neutral on his referendum. It was naive.

Paul Grundy 🐝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 @leyther70.bsky.social · 3d

2019 GE was pivotal.
Cameron has set a precedent for referendum to get back in. Nothing to do with Starmer. He has zero mandate from people to take us back in.

Have you got all those splinters out when you was sat on fence in 2019 election on EU ?

Could have been cut and pasted from a Farridge speech in 2016.

Its a shame we can't wean ourselves off American software companies. Microsoft are bleeding NHS dry, and other software companies as well have NHS locked in. The waste of disposing of perfectly good computers because Microsoft say they don't support is horrendous. Far from being Green as well.

Paul Grundy 🐝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 @leyther70.bsky.social · 6d

Cameron's fault. Should never have had a referendum on EU. All the country's divisiveness, and off the scale hatred stems from that meeting he had deciding if should have referendum.
Now we are left with whichever the wind is blowing populist politicians. Lee "30p" Anderson being the blueprint.
