We must reboot politics. The Labour Party is busy trying to be crueler than the Tories. We had one PM who was reputedly a pig f@clear and it looks like the future PM will be a deeply unpleasant racist pig.

We need to support Zack Polanski, join.greenparty.org.uk, and stop the rot. Bring back hope!

Starmer needs to find the courage to follow his arguments about the failures and costs of Brexit to their logical conclusion. His recent foreign policy speech fell short by continuing to gloss over hard truths, and pretend Britain can keep muddling through.

One of the best politicians north of the border.

I don’t think Farage will do well there, maybe will syphon votes from the Tories, but that’s not too much.

I am a Liberal and a big LibDems supporter, but I don’t see a Liberal case forcing Scotland in the U.K.
Too many folks and businesses are struggling with energy costs, all the more absurd when Scotland has so many resources. The UK has delivered a poor deal on energy, an independent Scotland won’t do it like this.

No doubt many Reform supporters will see this as a badge of honour

Many of those Reform supporters’ relatives fought to protect this country from this. Sadly many are too dim to realise this

Farage is repugnant and an affront to those who fought against this

The world class vetting process Farage spouted either didn’t work or this kind of candidate was acceptable?

Either way not a way to grow a party.
Farage back in March: "We've been vetting, I bet, to a standard that no other party has ever done before..."

Corporations are one of the worst fictions in our World. Whenever a corporation does something evil, real flesh and blood people made that decision. These people should be held accountable. When a corporation murders tens of thousands of people, the people who made that decision should go to prison.
