@CounsellingSam Nope, it’s definitely extreme left. Your policies aren’t “mildly left-wing” they’re DANGEROUSLY left wing.

The Green Party isn't far left or extreme left. It has common sense, mildly left-wing policies that the Labour Party used to have. It's not far left to care.

Coward! Bottler! Looking forward to the tough questions you and all your failed Tories get on your own podcast on the Brexit lies, pisspoor candidate selection, policy contradictions and all the dosh flowing its way towards you

@Heccles94 Yet he’s actually spouting untruths. Especially about Reform. He mentions that he’s there for all communities, except the main one that should matter.. No shock. This man is so deluded. Hasn’t a clue about the Economy in the slightest.

Yet no mention of Hamas propaganda that is always peddled, and the antisemitism on the hate marches. Just admit you’re anti-Israel and have done with it 🙄 Interesting, I see a lot of comments on this post and very few are about what the Greens have previously always been about. The Environment. Shows they have pushed their original policies to one side to open the new wave of “anything but Britain” policies. The apparent “peace and love” party are actually the most divisive, hostile, cancel culture, aggressive set of people going. Very dangerous to the future of the UK.

What a weapon you are if this is what you have to cry about 😂😂 Don’t see you ever moan about the Hamas supporting brigade in the Celtic stands every weekend, or condemn the hate marches every weekend, etc. Funny that. Just want to ban anyone who doesn’t conform to your ideology.

Reform UK is now Britain’s most unpopular party. More voters view it negatively than Labour or the Conservatives. 38% say they will vote to stop Reform in May, up nine points since November. Voters have seen the neo-Nazi Cameo videos, the billionaire dark money, the plan to scrap the Equality Act. They have noticed. #ReformUK #NigelFarage #LocalElections2026

@terrychristian Rich coming from someone that resorts to name calling constantly 😂 It was not a “mistake”. You just won’t accept that it was mismanaged by people who never truly wanted it but had to deliver something that resembled it because that was how they got voted in.

It’s interesting Matthew, because you LOSE on BOTH sides of your argument, when you look into it. Labour don’t want a public inquiry into the Grooming gangs. Labour also chose to hire Mandelson, knowing full well his history with Epstein and not a shred of remorse for the victims. Labour won’t tackle the boats bringing criminals that exploit women and children. Tell me, when will you be holding those people to account, rather than Reform for atleast trying to tackle one or more of these issues? Then again, that wouldn’t fit your narrative now, would

It’s a political choice not to talk about the epidemic of domestic abuse and the sexual abuse of 500,000 children in our country. Michelle. And I certainly wasn’t deflecting, let alone minimising the abuse you have suffered. As you know. Unlike you, I was scrutinising Laila Cunningham, who wants to be Mayor of London (!), about Reform’s policies to stop the boats. Maybe try scrutinising your guests, too, rather than appearing to give Reform a relatively free pass. They are leading in the polls. Hope this helps.
Michelle Dewberry@MichelleDewbs

Hi Matt. I ‘shut you down’ because you were not trying to debate, you were trying to deflect. The horrendous domestic abuse we experience in this country has absolutely *nothing* to do with the fact that as a result of political choice; young men are permitted to illegally enter this country en mass from backgrounds/cultures which subjugate women/girls and are then placed freely among our communities. The net result of this political choice is that women/girls are put at *direct increased risk*. This increased risk often results in the attacks we see and hear about regularly (tho I don’t believe we are told the full volume). Attempting to conflate the two issues - as an attempt to avoid and/or dismiss the issue in hand - is a nonsense/insulting deflection which needs robustly calling out each/every time it happens. I will never hesitate to do exactly that. I make no apologies for this. Hope that helps.

@DarrenBar88 Darren, when you have something constructive to add to any argument, people might listen. Unfortunately the apparent “peace loving Greens” aren’t peace loving and are in fact the most aggressive set of people in the country.

Strange isn’t it, this only bothers you by 1 party. The left are always invited onto TalkTV too, but they don’t like to go onto a channel that will hold them to account. Instead they’d sooner sit on media channels that will ask them fluffy questions and won’t push back on what they’re saying. Perhaps you should advocate your Liebour friends, Greens & Lib Dem’s to put themselves out there on any channel and fight their corner, if it’s truly what they believe in.

@LizWebsterSBF You’ll probably find that many Lib Dem/Labour/Green’s just won’t go on, similarly with TalkTV, they’re always inviting the left on but they refuse. Tories & Reform are the only parties happy to go on pretty much any channel.

Liz Webster@LizWebsterSBF·
🔥 It’s happened almost by stealth. GB News has effectively become Reform TV. A major UK political leader, Nigel Farage, hosts his own “news” show: something that would have been unthinkable in British broadcasting. A review by 20 experienced journalists found: • systemic bias • lack of challenge • factual inaccuracies • and overwhelming alignment with Reform talking points ☠️ Average compliance with @Ofcom rules? 1.5 out of 5. Meanwhile Ofcom has largely waved it through: even a Trump interview rated zero for impartiality was cleared because “balance” came hours later in a different programme. This is about something really fundamental: 👉 In the UK, newspapers can be partisan. 👉 Broadcasters are supposed to be impartial by law. That line is now being blurred or ignored. Even @afneil says the channel became something entirely different from what was promised: “A kind of Fox News… they worshipped the ground Farage walked on.” When a political movement effectively gains its own TV platform, with minimal regulation, it doesn’t just shape debate. It reshapes democracy. The question isn’t whether you agree with the politics. It’s whether the rules that underpin trust in broadcast news are still being enforced at all.

Oh but the Country won’t be Mark. Reform are the only ones offering common sense policies. Liebour can’t agree amongst themselves what’s right or wrong. Want to curb our freedoms and will say and do anything to ensure they fight with the Greens for the Muslim vote. Tories are finished, they’re now trying to take on Reform’s policies to try and fool people into voting Conservative. People are now prepared to cut their nose off to spite their face and go extreme left and vote Green, make themselves WORSE off than they already are, just avoid having to concede that Reform might actually make them better off and the Country better, which is a shocking time.

Crazy that you support Starmer NOT answering questions, which are pretty easy questions to answer, yet you attack any other leader that won’t answer questions. He still hasn’t really been held accountable for the Mandelson appointment, so she did right to go after it. If this was the Tories or Reform, you’d DEMAND answers. But because it’s Liebour and Starmer, you’re happy to let it slide. Very weird.

Kemi Badenoch, woeful again at #PMQs. One question about Madelson fine. Two, OK. Six — this way madness lies. Starmer dodged, granted, but after the third question he just started attacking — fair game. Badenoch had an opportunity to ask about the cost of living, petrol prices or the meningitis outbreak — things that the public would like more information on. She came across as obsessive and unwilling to pivot.

A calm head that can’t stick to anything he “believes in”. The man will do literally anything to save his own skin, yet people paint him like he’s out for “the people”. Labour are done, Conservatives are done. Unfortunately people are prepared to go extreme left and vote Green and make themselves worse off than we already are just to avoid having to concede that Reform might actually make their lives better. I firmly believe this now.

Starmer will win the next election. Not because he’s loved. Not because he’s a visionary. Not because he’s Labour. But because he is, in the end, a calm head, whose two main challengers are patently unserious ideologues, who show themselves daily to be unsuitable for the role.
