To be clear, we're going straight back to Brexit chaos if the Conservatives or Reform are in power, and that is because of their commitment to withdraw from the ECHR, which would almost certainly mean parts of the TCA suspended and huge US diplomatic pressure. www.ft.com/content/f923...

The thing is, this isn't some gotcha memory test about "what precise amount of money will this cost/raise" of the type beloved by interviewers in election campaigns. It's the most basic question imaginable - "how will this thing work?" She has no idea.

Absolutely this. It became the Zack Polanski vanity party. Genuine green issues that have never been more important than right now practically ignored in favour of growing membership.

Oh for sure. There are definitely levels to luxury. We just picked one up yesterday (EX-30) and just reading on the Apple CarPlay features and it mentioned Volvo being a “luxury brand”. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I can’t stand Tim Stanley but I respect what he’s saying here. And he’s right. It’s important that there is scrutiny of the government and it’s important that the Tories provide this.

More Green figures leaving

Cllr Kieran Dams

5 Oct
Today I've resigned as Coordinator of my local Green Party.

I've poured so much into this party over the years. Evenings, weekends, campaigning, organising. I've genuinely given it everything.

I could stay quiet and sit on the sidelines, but that's just not me. If I think something is wrong, I'll say it.

Since speaking out I've had hundreds of abusive and threatening messages. Some are serious enough that I'll be taking them to the police.

And to people in the party who have the same concerns as me, please don't stay silent. Speak up. It matters.

I'm genuinely gutted it's come to this, but I have to stand by what I believe.

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Just the dumbest collection of halfwit confetti emerging out of that conference. Tax cuts everywhere, paid for with imaginary spending cuts. Huge spending projects with precisely zero utility, except to anchor their 'defence day' narrative. Clowns.

Kemi Badenoch’s whole shtick is slash and burn, which is red meat for the Westminster-brained, but for the wider electorate… what actually is her vision for what emerges from the ashes? What sort of country does she want us to become? Seemingly just one that’s punitive, uncaring and nasty?
