Billionaires and their minions are terrified because Zack is a double threat: either the Green Party keeps getting stronger and/or they keep pushing Labour back to the left. #VoteGreen #TaxTheRich #StandUpToRacism

Zack is a great leader. He will be an even harder working MP He led the greens from 30k to 250k members + doubled polling. Yet the media still call him a failure. Why? he represents a threat to their establishment and as a gayJew he fights homophobia and antisemitism daily. I stand with Zack 💚

100% We should all be terrified of what’s happening here. I keep remembering all the fuss when Nick Griffin appeared on Question Time but now, the BBC can’t get enough of ppl who share his views and no one cares.

Exactly this! Everyone slightly left of centre seems happy to celebrate Cable Street now that it's safely 90 years in the past but how do we fight racism today? Handwringing is not going to cut it.

Many many years ago when I was 17, I did a cover of Countess Bathory with some friends for our end of school concert. I felt so fucking good, like “Fuck you all! We’re outta here”.

This is what happens when a country tries to kid itself that it can have the death penalty and still consider itself more "civilized" than other countries that behead ppl or shoot them in the back of the head. The death penalty is an abomination that should have ceased to exist many years ago.

Exactly! I rant about this all the time but he could not even wait to get his eye black off before opting out. He gave an interview in the middle of a slump saying he “felt great” and caused Senga injury with that rubbish throw. I wish he’d stayed but him going didn’t sink the Mets. And breathe….

Haha! We’ve all got posts like that! I mean, Anthony DiComo predicted the Mets would win the NL East without any drama 🤣 But yeah, please be better next year Mets!

For me there is no mystery to these people. I grew up in a street with plenty of them, where the British National Party felt confident enough to visit our doorsteps. There is no dignity to their hatred and it has been indulged far too long. It has already cost us enough time, enough lives. Enough.

I agree totally with Ed on this one. Maybe let’s wait for the details instead of having an immediate circular firing squad at the behest of the billionaires’ press. It’s not like there was a paramilitary far right show of force yesterday that might be more worthy of attention. Oh….

More importantly, what will immigrants do? The AfD and their voters are not in any great physical danger. The fears have been deified, their bigotry has been indulged. What will their scapegoats do?

“No arrests were made during the incident” So when far right groups block the roads, they can just walk away? But when climate protesters do it…. The UK is sleepwalking into fascism with Labour’s support. We need real opposition now!
