Just had a look at the speakers for this year: Jeremy Corbyn, Zia Yusuf, Maurice Glasman, Kathleen Stock, Slavoj Ε½iΕΎek, Michael Gove, Zarah Sultana, ... - is being sure to piss off most of the attendees a prerequisite for being invited?

Do Reform voters count as native wildlife?

Just wait for the episode where the Ayatollah's son starts dating the Ambassador's daughter.

As soon as he lands, announce that he's revoking the declaration of independence - they've had 250 years to give it a go, and it's clearly not working.

Yep, but Labour would probably be more likely to join the Tories in a Reform-led coalition - anything to stop the possibility of electoral reform.

Nope - that's still last week's.

The tragic awfulness of this government is that it has extended a factional war against the left of the Labour Party into a war against almost all the good things we might have expected of it. It cannot respond to the crisis it faces, because its hatred of the Labour left is definitional.

Local Council Political Compositions

The list maintained by Keith Edkins suggests that there are 12 councils where Labour and the Greens both form part of the administration: www.theedkins.co.uk/uklocalgov/m... (and I guess there may be less formal arrangements in some of the councils with a minority Labour or minority Green admin).

Isn't that a tautology since pedantry is, by its nature, needless?

Shouldn't a county constituency always have the compass point *before* the name?

SCAM
LABOUR CAUGHT CREATING FAKE TACTICAL VOTING WEBSITE

Screenshot of a tweet that reads:
The Movement Forward | StopTheTories.vote @MVTFWD
A Warning: there is no tactical voting site called "Tactical Choice"
If you choose to vote tactically it's important to seek independent, impartial advice. And always check the source online, as printed leaflets could be out of date, or even intentionally misleading.

Promoted by Miles Thorpe on behalf of Hannah Spencer, both at 173 Mount Road, Gorton, Manchester, M18 7QT.

On the eve of the Gorton & Denton by-election the Labour Party have invented a fake tactical voting organisation to put on their leaflets.

Lying to voters is all they have left.

All the (real) tactical voting organisations agree: only a Green vote can stop Reform on Thursday.

Are Labour now weaponising the poll as well (see Lucy Powell's (quote-disabled) post around 45 minutes ago) ? The contests claimed here (except Gorton & Abbey Hey) look suspiciously like those in the ward breakdown (tiny numbers of course). And of course this doesn't show the sizes of the margins.

"Luke Cooper" appears to be DI Steve Arnott trying to go undercover.

That's the problem with having a former Lib Dem as party leader ... (and yes, I'm a Green Party member).
