Interesting to read in the Times of Labour Ministers admitting that the Green Party are very much ready to take them (and Reform) on.

Zack attack: the charismatic eco-populist rallying the radical left

When different pollsters show different results, it’s worth looking at the comparative dates when the polls were taken.

(Generally speaking, sample size makes little difference; you don’t taste soup by eating the whole pot.) 💚

Tax the polluters💰

Bring water under public ownership👨‍👩‍👦‍👦

Bring British waters back up to standard🔨
Water companies have been paying out £billions to shareholders while Britain's rivers and waterways have been riddled with pollution.

And to rub it in, our bills have been hiked at the same time.

It's time to tax these polluters to clean up their mess.

Over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli settlers and soldiers in the West Bank and East Jerusalem in the last two years.

According to the UN, October was the deadliest month for settler violence since it started keeping track in 2006.

End the occupation.

In his smile, I see the moon.

Another in an occasional series from my family photo archive. Initially I only saw one kitten, then realised there are two. My grandmother is on the left, but I don't know who the other people are. Date? 1920s I'd estimate.

People have tried to say that the Green surge is just on social media.

Or in a bubble that's just about polls and just about new members.

Yet up and down the country - Greens are also winning elections.

please can you give this a push even if it's not your area or you can't personally go - it's important they get as many numbers as possible to stand in opposition to these fash cunts
Everyone out for this tomorrow, yeah?

Bristol Patriots have now teamed up with UKIP, the Great British National Protest, Britain First, and something they're calling "Bristol United" (the hooligans have gone woke, lads) to attack refugees.

Let's show them what Bristol is about.

Ex-Tory-turned-Reform UK muppet Andrea Jenkyns waddled onto Rees-Mogg’s GB News to back down on a “promise” to freeze or cut council tax, pitch DOGE as a solution, and whine that Tories and Labour are to blame for the chaos Reform councillors face.

Real and really good people take real and really good photos.

The skies may not be ultra blue, and there might not be 72 perfectly boofed baby alpacas skipping all over the place, but if you find the right place and capture the right angle, you can tell a story of depth with real meaning.
Some monuments are built to show power. Others stand to tell the truth.
