Take Big Money Out of Our Politics British politics is awash with money from super rich donors. In 2023, two-thirds of all private donations came from just 19 people. These so-called ‘mega donors’ enjoy privileged access to political p...

Hope Beats Hate: Green Party Defeats Reform and Labour in Huge Gorton and Denton By-Election Victory A concerted political and media campaign to scare voters about a “Green Menace” winning this by-election failed, reports Adam Bienkov

In a battle between hope and hate, hope won out.

 Ok folks,
 Given the recent proclamation that we're
 going to serve free beer on the day that
 "he" kicks the bucket, demand for our
 suds has gone through the roof!
 We'd like to believe the world has finally
 realized that our beer is second to none,
 but we have a feeling it's more likely that
 there's a volcanic level of mirth waiting to
 erupt moments after the Orange
 Shitgibbon finally becomes a casualty of is
 own toxic flatulence.

This election is an appeal for trust, a battle against fear and a straight fight between Greens and Reform | Hannah Spencer Thursday’s stakes could not be higher.

Reform have nothing to offer but divisive hate. Blaming migrants and communities struggling to get by.

Hannah Spencer understands Manchester, she knows the value of work and will actually get things done.

Thursday - it's Greens Vs Reform. Hope Vs Hate.

'She started to forget, little by little': Virtual reality offers escape to Gaza's children In Gaza City, Palestinian children in displacement camps have been given some virtual reality headsets. For a few minutes, they are somewhere else. Then they step back into Gaza as it is.

Stop Palantir taking over our public services! Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

Nearly 100k people have joined our call to get dangerous US spy tech firm out of our NHS.

Palantir's founder has called for the NHS to be ripped up. Now his company has access to millions of patient records.

Tell the government to end the contract!

BBC Verify fact-check: Is Reform's Nigel Farage right to claim one million in UK 'don't speak any English’? Latest updates from the BBC's specialists in fact-checking, verifying video and tackling disinformation.

BBC Verify fact-checked Farage’s claim that a million people in UK don’t speak English, he claimed came from the last census

It’s utter BS.. 161,000 in England & Wales “could not speak English at all” -circa 0.3% of the population

No surprise Chris Mason didn’t challenge him on it in an interview🙄

The caretaker PM is running scared and resorting to more smears because he knows the game is up.

Labour is sinking in Gorton and Denton and it’s left to the Greens to challenge the far right threat of Reform.

Island of strangers? No. An Island of hope and unity.

In the light of Monaco-domiciled Jimmy "never explain, never apologise" Ratcliffe's emmigrant status, how about we change the law to say you cannot have full UK citizenship – and its privilages – unless you pay personal income taxes IN the UK.

It would wor for Dickie Tice too!

Stopping the puppeteer who pulls Trump’s & Vance’s strings is especially important when u consider Thiel believes that democratic, mass-participation politics inhibit freedom, particularly for technological and economic advancement.
