Not a cat on stilts wearing a trench coat. Definitely not a cat. Much less, a ringtail (aka the Miner's Cat). No, sir-ee! Ursula K LeGuin destroys JK Rowling's writing any day

The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The fifth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Reform supporters love to suggest that all young people are idiots who don't know anything and that's why 16-year-olds shouldn't have the vote but they simultaneously proudly proclaim that loads of young people love Reform even though they really fucking don't and Reform ONLY leads with people 65+.

Well, here’s the thing about being antiwar as an ethical belief: it means you end up opposing most wars. Almost all of them, in fact. This is quite common in people who have consistent beliefs but looks insane to people who have none, or mostly just believe superior people should make the decisions.
Left can't resist being on wrong side of a war
Whether it's Jeremy Corbyn or Zack Polanski, their foreign policy stances terrify voters outside core supporters

Totally this. The rightwing hate “journalists” are spinning Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man as Islamist sectarianism.
Salma Yaqoob @SalmaYaqoob
Almost feel sorry for the haters who are trying to spin Muslims voting for a woman in a party led by a gay Jewish man is evidence of Islamist sectarianism
In fact it's evidence of genuine tolerance, rejection of superficial identity politics and ability to prioritise tackling common concerns of cost of living, protecting public services and rejecting war mongering.
And the promotion of mutual respect and individual freedoms.
The coming together of people is terrifying for the ruling elites.

Labour is briefing that they know they won't win the Gorton and Denton by election. The Greens are favourites and are the only party that can stop Reform. Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win.
In the constituency, embittered labour campaigners have started their slow march into an "inevitable defeat." The wording comes from HQ themselves who are briefing journalists they don't expect to win m

Minnesota will either save the United States of America from itself a second time (as our 1st MN Volunteers did in 1863), or it will become its own polity. Either way, that civic engagement, high voter turnout, and leading literacy rate will remain unchanged. We are who we are: Minnesotans.

if you don’t want reform vote green. 

it’s your only option. 

the labour party is just more of the same and they’ve spent the last 18 months attacking their own base. 

labour cannot win the next election. 

vote green.

Jolyon suggests that if the EHRC loses it should apologise to trans people. I won’t be accepting an apology from a transphobic organisation that’s been forced into saying sorry. If they lose 🤞, then they need to be disbanded and replaced with a proper NHRI that can rebuild trust with our community.

Amen to that. Admittedly the Greens under Zack Polanski have seen an uptake in popularity. Under a platform of economic justice and not treating minorities (including trans people) like garbage. Jeremy Corbyn's party has promise. Though there's too little known about their agenda in key areas.

Jenrick could have visited Handsworth to listen to residents – he chose to pass through and make a judgement based on the colour of their skin. Instead of getting to know our nation of neighbours, he chose racism. The Tories, Reform and Labour want to divide us. The Greens say enough is enough.
