Objectively Elphaba’s statement “I ask forgiveness for all the things you blame me for” is a pretty lousy apology! #WickedForGood

Crappy dig but for the Chancellor to even mention Polanski indicates just how much of a threat the Greens have become and how seriously Labour need to take them.

I imagine many of us said stuff aged 13 that we would be mortified about. But to double down on it and call people liars, rather than say “maybe I did but I’ve grown, I’ve learned and I’m a different person” tells you that Farage has not grown, he has not learned and he is absolutely the same today

Ideology aside, this is a really basic question and one I would love to hear answered by Starmer and Reeves (and all of the other parties).
"When are we going to see tough choices for multi-millionaires and billionaires?"

My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation.
Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.

What would the Green Party do at the Budget?
💡 Cut energy bills by ending profiteering
🚰 Cut water bills by bringing water into public hands
🏠 Give councils the power to control rents
🚸 Lift the two-child benefit cap and extend free school meals to all
Cut Bills. Tax Billionaires.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.
We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.
