The Greens have some great policies, sadly these are redundant due to also having some far-too ridiculous ones that will always be highlighted by the adversarial media and be a red-line for most voters.

The absolute definition of the corporate capture of a regulator. i.e. corruption. Sadly happening in all regulated industries, hence unchecked profiteering and successive governments prioritising the interests of their donors over that of the populace.

Just 4 months after the local elections, Reform UK (RefUK) have lost 158 of their local councillors: -55 resigned -42 went Independent -28 defected -24 were kicked out -5 lost their seats -2 disqualified -2 suspended. Appalling record - and a waste of taxpayers’ money!

The RNLI are national heroes: the pride of Britain. Fuck any wheezingly impotent Nazi scumbag who says differently. The Masked Micrococks haven’t even got the nerve to show their faces in a gaggle of no-custody divorcee cockrings, let alone do something remotely courageous for the country.

RNLI Statement:

The RNLI is a charity that exists to save lives at sea.
But recent events have generated deliberate misinformation and a misunderstanding about our purpose and our Lifesaving work in the Channel.
As a result, some of our volunteers and staff have been the subject of online and, in some cases, physical abuse.
This is unacceptable.
The RNLI's people represent the very best of society. For over two hundred years they have dedicated themselves to rescuing people they've never met before, without judgment, fear or favour.
We are tasked by HM Coastguard to help those in distress, and we'll do so whenever, wherever and whoever they are.
We launched 9,058 times in 2025.
Only 109 of those launches were to those in distress in the Channel
- 1.2% of our total rescue work. Anyone rescued from a small boat by the RNLI is then taken into the care of the relevant UK authorities.
To those who stand with the RNLI, thank you. For more than two hundred years, we've saved lives at sea around the UK and Ireland, and that commitment remains unchanged.

You have to choose. You can't be nice to everyone. Appeasing corporations and billionaires means abandoning everyone else. When it comes to policy, it's us or them. And for far too long political leaders in this country have sided with them. If Burnham is to survive, this is what he needs to change.

At the very least OFWAT should be scrapped and replaced with anew regulator with a clear mandate and legislative powers to properly punish companies with larger fines. The fines should be payable only in shares so the government owns more and more of each company unless they invest and reduce debt

The government should set up a competing energy supply business which offers low tariffs. They should still make profit and operate like a stand alone business but without shareholders and the profit is used to provide support to those on certain benefits and fund green energy initiatives

So the allegation of plagiarism in his PhD was investigated and dismissed. It turns out he did run all those marathons. So tell me, precisely, all you online sleuths — what exactly did Jason Arday do wrong? (Apart from being the wrong class and colour of course)

As an aside, those politicians who created the current crisis - increasing prison sentences for tabloid applause while cutting prisons and courts to the bone - may want to quietly reflect on their culpability, instead of running for the megaphone in an unedifying fumble for clicks.

RefUK, RW media, & Eurofash are plainly trying to whip up a panic about this. Any serious report must begin by explaining that Ceuta is in Africa - not mainland Spain - and 48k+ of the 50k crossers were already returned. It is frightening how many still don't know this. Please share on all socials.

Map showing the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla in North Africa.

Screengrab from Politico piece that explains, citing Reuters, that 48,300 of the 50,000 recent crossings have already been expelled or voluntarily returned to Morocco.

BBC report on Friday, still echoing the RW disinformation - or at the very least not challengning it sufficiently.

What triggered the mass migrant crossings into Ceuta?

31 July 2026
Spain's prime minister has blamed trafficking gangs after about 60,000 migrants crossed into the Spanish North African enclave of Ceuta from Morocco. At least 57 people died during the surge, according to local media."

Daily Mail and Daily Express from this weekend, with front page headlines "Ministers MUST stop the Spanish border invaders reaching UK" and "SPANISH BORDER CRISIS IS 'WAKE-UP CALL' FOR UK", respectively.
