Just watched an excellent Zack Polanski interview ( leader of the UK Green Party) by Owen Jones. Highly recommended. Polanski gives me hope that we can turn this country around and have a better future than what we're facing right now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_qa...

The Greens are winning the support of around half of 18 to 24 year olds.
Reform are on 5%. So much for young people's turn to the right!
And the Young Greens now have 40,000 members - the biggest youth and students wing in British politics

During the general election campaign, a Labour aide told me:
"People think that Keir and Rachel have a secret plan hiding in a drawer somewhere.
They don't."

My hot take on this its great that the journalist acknowledges that the Green Party is at record membership, record polling and has huge momentum.
But why say "dentally challenged?"
Who or what is that serving?

Was Jeffrey Epstein working for Mossad?
I used to dismiss this as a conspiracy theory.
But new revelations mean we can't ignore his extensive links with Israel.

The Owen Jones criticism of McSweeney and co was always that they were driven solely by factionalism and a desire to beat the left. I always dismissed that as sour grapes, but I was wrong.

@owenjones.bsky.social has every right to express this.
He predicted, and kept on predicting, that Starmer would fail.
He was right, yet still some in the Labour Party, the Guardian, Independent & other “centrists” seem to think otherwise.
Centrism is dead. Good riddance.

I've consistently called for Labour to put up taxes ON THE WEALTHY.
Labour's SOLEMN PLEDGE not to increase income tax was insanely stupid.
But they made the pledge. It was their signature promise in the election.
Ripping it up now will destroy Labour - and further wreck faith in democracy.
