Zack and the Greenstalk lives rent-free in Starmer’s head.

Nuts? Nuts are seeds, mate.

You plant us, we grow.

Starmer says he’s "taking the gloves off" and that the Greens are "nuts"

Big talk from the PM of vibes based cruelty and trickle down cowardice.

And it's not what the Greens are proposing or ever have proposed. But Arming and conspiring with the side committing genocide, that's sane is it, Keir?
Whereas introducing wildly authoritarian laws, allowing huge individual political donations and removing jury trials whilst Nigel fucking Farage waits in the wings is perfectly sane and safe?

Agree. Neither does he mean young people in hunger strike demanding justice, young people betrayed by a government who speaks of 'Green crap' and allows North Sea drilling contribute to climate disaster blighting their futures.

Obviously Starmer doesn’t mean;

-young people who are disabled,

-young people who are trans/non-binary,

-young people who (or whose parents) are fleeing war, poverty, the effects of climate change or persecution.

Starmer is REALLY getting desperate; double disinformation in the opener of this puff-piece in the Observer.

1. The Greens recognise that the US is pulling NATO apart, & that a new European alliance is de facto coming together.

2. The Greens want to end the sale of drugs from dodgy sources.

Very visible connection there between Wes Streeting wanting to decrease diagnoses of mental illness, and Keir Starmer stating that Polanski's Greens are 'nuts.'

Casual but very intentional ableism all the way from this government.

An acute case of white male entitlement: "I may be doing a shambolic job, but I do enjoy this PM hobby I picked up, the perks are stonking!"

Starmer's got to go. Like, yesterday. ASAP.

Gove is one of the most despicable men in the history of UK politics and i include the reform lot in that too.
I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities.

Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise

Assuming Starmer had ever done anything before his leadership role beyond wait inside calmly inside his packet in the fridge of a provincial service station, just hoping the next customer wanted a beige sandwich meal deal, can you imagine self-aware humour like this?
Zack Polanski, "Careful, you make me sound like a hypnotist"

This comes as no surprise given Labour's crushing of internal party democracy since Starmer took over, its contempt for dissenting views in the public sphere and its hard right approach to civil liberties. We have been warned!

The main issue I see with Labour is careerism.

It's so glaringly exposed in McSweeney's inept machinations and Starmer's appeasement. It got them up the greasy pole and now there they are, in full view, with their thumbs up their arses.

No vision. No moral purpose. No passion. And it shows.

Private companies operating care services in just three regions of England made £250m profits in 3 years,

£87.7m of profits went to care providers owned by private equity controlled from tax havens.

Profits mean money buys less. Higher taxes for less service.

Say NO to privatisation.

Meanwhile farage and his ilk continue to chip away at the UK. Sowing division with lies and attempting to undermine every institution that protects us.
Legal experts, former government ministers and an ex-MI6 director criticise the process used to ban Palestine Action.

An independent commission said the definition of terrorism was too broad and parliamentary oversight and judicial scrutiny was needed.
