The very first thing the Prime Minister does is use the household budget metaphor.
A metaphor - this report into BBC coverage - said could be "easily misleading."
Why is the government trying to mislead the country?

There is no way the two child cap would have been removed if it had not been for the Green party surging in the polls.
If, like me, you think that this is nowhere near enough, then all the more reason to #VoteGreen and join.greenparty.org.uk

Alongside many campaigners, the Green Party have absolutely dragged the Labour Government to finally end the child cap.
Labour politicians disgracefully defended it for far too long.
This shows why the Green Party membership rising and rising matters.

Labour’s awful migrant policies are helping pave the way for the racist far right. And they are also building a gold-plated shed at the end of that road - full of tools for a far right Govt to oppress us all.

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

The people who came up with "Black Dog" as a brand of free range eggs, and then designed this sign, didn't entirely think it through did they?
Or am I the only person who thinks Dog Egg is a euphemism?

#UK the government are still using Twitter and not bsky despite the fact that the former is run by a racist liar who seeks to undermine democracy.
We should be writing to MPs and demanding they quit Twitter immediately.

The Guardian are reporting a significant increase in Jewish people voting for the Green Party.
It's almost like many of us grew up learning a history of persecution & violence.
We don't oppose the Genocide in spite of being Jewish but because of it.
Never again for everyone.
