Farage: Reform is a serious political party and ready to govern.

Also, badgers are woke.

Kneecap: Government loses appeal over quashed terror charge Liam ร“g ร“ hAnnaidh, known as Mo Chara, had been accused of showing support for proscribed organisation Hezbollah following a gig in London in 2024.

Jeepers Starmer, turns out you can't always get away with labelling anyone who criticises you a terrorist.

Still, you haven't retracted your statement that the Green Party are extremist yet, & are still appealing Palestine Action, all of which seems quite... extreme...

Not only would I be happy to replace Churchill on fivers with a badger, I'd replace the Churchill statue in Parliament Square with a big bronze badger AND I'd replace Ed Davey with an ACTUAL badger coz it'd probably vote in less austerity.

Green win shows progressive voters are now voting against Labour as well as Reform Gorton and Denton byelection shatters Labour strategy of neglecting its core base while focusing on Reform defectors

I generally assume that political parties know what their constituencies think better than the rest of us do: they spend so much money on polling and focus groups.

But I would be *amazed* if they understood how viscerally they are loathed by young progressives for pushing trans people under a bus.

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts.

Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir.

This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition:

LABOUR CAUGHT CREATING FAKE TACTICAL VOTING WEBSITE

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 And always check the source online, as printed leaflets could be out of date, or even intentionally misleading.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.

This is a massive scandal.

Labour has invented a made-up tactical vote organisation to trick Gorton and Denton into voting for them.

How can this even be legal?

Kansas has, overnight, invalidated the driversโ€™ licenses of trans people, a pointless cruelty that upends their lives

If Brits think โ€œit wonโ€™t happen hereโ€ think again! Groups in the U.K. who want the same thing are routinely invited to consult with Labour and normalised in our press!

Two things are simultaneously true:
1. The Iranian regime treats its people with extreme brutality and cruelty, and we should honour the citizens seeking to overthrow it.
2. A US attack on Iran would turn a crisis into a catastrophe.

Drug deaths have risen every year for 13 years.

Thatโ€™s 13 years of a failed โ€œwar on drugsโ€.

Labour should be looking at legalisation, control and regulation - not playing politics with peopleโ€™s lives.

This is a public health crisis. Treat it like one. Not a game.

Just a regular reminder to please support your local theatre, cafรฉ, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them.

Without us, they can't survive, and truthfully, without them, neither can we.

Reform UK suspends by-election campaign activist over โ€˜antisemitic and misogynisticโ€™ posts EXCLUSIVE: Adam Mitula, Reform UKโ€™s interim campaign manager in Tameside, has been assisting Matt Goodwin's Gorton and Denton by-election campaign

So it turns out Matt Goodwin's Reform campaign manager was a holocaust-denying Nazi who said he would "never touch a Jewish woman.โ€

When do we start seeing all the coverage of the antisemitism crisis in Reform UK?

Open borders create more safety than closed ones, and most of the benefits of safety are downriver from being the sort of people who keep their borders open, thereby avoiding the terrible dangers inherent to being the sort of people who would keep their borders closed.

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 itโ€™s left to the Greens to challenge the far right threat of Reform.

Farage's claims here are straightforward lies (and it's about time the media/press said so)

The correct figures are 160K (0.3%) and 900K (1.5%)
