The central tenet of the US gun lobby is that citizens must have the right to bear arms as the ultimate safeguard against an authoritarianism government.

So, where are you, guys?

Or was that another made-up reason to keep the bucks rolling in for the gun industry?

Daffodils are in the shops again. They are £1 a bunch. They are always £1 a bunch. They have been £1 a bunch for years, and the bunches don't seem to be getting any smaller. Does inflation not exist in flowerland?

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

Wow! Letter from Epstein to a convicted sex offender Larry Nassar right before Epstein’s death.

This was in the files the DOJ released last night and then removed from their site.

Trump’s White House just threatened sanctions against the International Criminal Court unless they promise lifelong immunity for Trump, Pence, and top officials.

That’s right — they’re trying to bully the world’s top war crimes court into never prosecuting them.

What are they so afraid of?

The "don't have an extra kid if you can't afford it" brigade get awfully upset when you suggest they don't stay in their £2m house if they can't afford it, don't they?

A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

For Shabana Mahmood to attack some of the most cruelly treated people in the world as having won a "golden ticket" because they manage to get to and claim asylum in Britain is unforgiveable.

A new, far right, low for which I can think of no precedent, by any UK Government.

Every personal attack.

Every attempt to distract or to divide.

It energises, strengthens and empowers our movement.

Look at this graph, Reform almost all of them went to Private School.

If you are Working Class and you vote for Reform, you are a traitor, to yourself.

Tomorrow I'll be on Laura Kuenssberg.

Will I be able to say "I can announce the Green Party have just overtaken the Tories in members!"?

It's tantalisingly close to happening!

Today's column is about the government's huge, unprecedented assault on nature ... and about the eerie, astonishing silence of the big nature groups. The RSPB, National Trust, Wildlife Trusts have 7.5m members between them. A vast force, completely unmobilised. 🧵

They are still claiming Digital ID is mandatory only for work.

Yet they want to consult on whether 13-16 year olds need it.

Why?

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.
