Yeah, they like to bring children with them like a human shield, which is horrible and creepy tbh

Have asked them repeatedly. Even told them not to knock on elderly neighbour who takes ages to get to the door and they went ahead and did, they don't care

We have a surprisingly large and active cell in Whitstable and despite telling them we are homo heathens and to leave us alone, still they knock! Got to admire their ambition I suppose

Do the people who think pensions should be means tested also think access to free healthcare and education should have a threshold?

Labour shape-shifting in self-defence means nothing other than trying to neutralise the traction of actual progressives. Anyway, hope you'll be back out campaigning in HSP for the final push, I will be

There's quite an important by-election in a week. If we want the political dial to actually shift, and not just applaud Labour reacting in self-defence, then fuck their *rhetoric* they are not progressives

Maybe praising Labour's rhetoric - a week before a by election actual progressives want the Greens to win - is the issue?

Nah. Labour are literally saying they're not progressive. It's just an electoral business.

what Miliband told activists attending a

Labour fringe event organised by the soft-left pressure group Mainstream. "Too often in the past, we thought that kicking some of our supporters would do us political credit," he said, "and we were absolutely wrong." Offending people "in the progressive community", he admitted, was sometimes

done "deliberately".

You can still tax wealthy pensioners' assets and investments while keeping a universal benefit. Tax what they have not who they are

Curse of the Libby Dead @captainlibatron.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I dunno, maybe making pensioners poorer will actually increase the burden on social care

Lucy Powell says the triple lock is good but in a few years it will be bad

■ We are committed to the triple lock. It's in our manifesto. The triple lock has really delivered for pensioners, in this country, over the course of this parliament ...

I don't know what Andy's going to say about that today, but I know that what he's talking about is this big conversation about solving these big problems, but being really honest with people that they come at a cost.

Lucy powell aays Labour committed to triple lock for this parliament but won't say if it could go after election

the maddening thing is that none of this history plays *any* role at all in discussion of "welfare reform". There will be no questions about why all the other "welfare reforms" (ie. cuts) didn't work. Why the callous Tories, who actually HAD A MANDATE for cutting state support, couldn't manage it

I will believe all the sad-eyed stuff about NEETs, lost generations, opportunity crisis etc. when the people saying it are talking about in terms of investment rather than cuts

This Labour government could have responded to the genocide in Gaza in so many ways, instead they cut aid. This is a dereliction of duty.

Stuff of nightmares UK cuts aid to Un Gaza food operations by 78%

There is a genuine incomprehension amongst many journalists and politicians that anyone might care sincerely about Palestinians or seriously object to their indiscriminate slaughter. The natural human response to this genocide is something they simply cannot understand.

Opposing genocide is actually a pretty normie position
