There's nothing the establishment is more scared of them a calm, kind, thoughtful gardener who happens to be a Muslim man in politics.

Hannah Spencer, a 34-year-old plumber and plasterer won with almost 15,000 votes. She becomes the fifth sitting MP in the 650-seat British parliament for the Greens, which wants higher taxes for the wealthy and is avowedly pro-Palestinian.
Congratulations to Hannah Spencer on a stunning victory.
Proud to support a campaign built on hope and humanity.
Under our new leadership team, Your Party will work constructively with the Greens, because there is only one way we can bring about real change: together.

It was lucky that the bus was behind schedule – mainly because the driver had stepped out to take his own photograph for social media (#endofanera) – otherwise the young lad in the hoodie might have missed it.

Instead of panicking, leaders would do well to stick with the liberal economic model that made Europe strong

January Update under Rachel Reeves:
Retail sales up 1.8% month-on-month; 4.5% year-on-year;
Initial OBR estimates record a £30.4bn public sector surplus;
Inflation falls to 3%;
I thought the ‘girl from accounts’ was meant to stay quiet - not deliver a £30bn surplus. #UKNews
It's illiberal I know but I really am starting to think that we need urgently to disenfranchise the “let’s just roll the dice” voters.
They may be lovely in person but the harm they have done is incalculable.
Let alone the harm that they are still to do.
A magnificent set of choices led to this. What a time to be alive www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
‘Right about everything’: Liz Truss tweets photo of her and Trump at Mar-a-Lago
Until 1982 Andrew was second in line to the throne. He could very easily have been king - as so many spares were before him. And really he's only been (superficially) stripped of his titles and privileges because this stuff became public and because Virginia Giuffre dared to speak out.
Lucy and Angeliki at the campaign launch
Delighted that Angeliki Stogia is Labour’s candidate for Gorton & Denton by-election.
She’s a strong Mancunian woman with Labour values & a record of delivery.
All our doorstep work is clear, only Labour can win against Reform. Don’t risk voting for others.
We chose unity & hope over division.
Please join us and help make history at the Gorton and Denton by-election! 💚. We have a brilliant candidate, Hannah Spencer, we have momentum and we have a vital message - that the politics of hope *can* win over the politics of hate.
We can win this! @mcrgreenparty.bsky.social @greenparty.org.uk
Reminder that the administration now arresting journalists, and its sycophants, are also whining that the EU and the UK are enemies of free speech
Responding to former Chancellor Nadhim Zahawi's defection to Reform UK, Liberal Democrat MP for Stratford-on-Avon (Zahawi's former seat), Manuela Perteghella MP said:
"Reform is becoming a retirement home for disgraced former Conservative ministers.

And yet the prevailing political attitude is that stopping them coming was antisemitic. Can you imagine what would’ve happened if there had been violence? I just think you have to avoid conflict if you can and it had potential to be a nightmare on both sides.
Where is Indiana JONES when you need him?
Has UKIP not heard of the Iron Cross?
Or the Spear of Longinus?
This is is beyond all belief - & tragically there will be an audience for this blatant imagery.

Quick to criticise the fourteen years of Tory austerity, mismanagement, and chaos - Farage is even quicker to welcome them into his party with open arms.

#Brexit and the damage it’s done to our country isn’t something #Farage should boast about, says this @teessidelive.bsky.social letter.
If so, #UKLabour #Starmer should use the opportunity to highlight his role and that of Tory Brexit refugees such as #NadhimZahawi in our disastrous #EU departure.
