Farage has one of the highest disapproval ratings of all politicians
Over 70% of the electorate are not voting for Reform
Yet, we all may have to live under the warped ideology of a hard right conservatism
That’s not democracy
Time for Proportional Representation

@21percentgroup Bristol started that approach back in the late 90’s early 2000’s when it sold its long ashton research centre and later part of the veterinary school farm

Kent University's core mission should be teaching & research
Now it's boldly pivoting to its true calling: luxury housing development
Because nothing advances knowledge quite like paving over the countryside, urbanising villages & destroying wildlife

@wesstreeting @lewis_goodall Time to look in the mirror and reflect on your hubris

We need our best players on the pitch. There is no doubt that Andy Burnham is one of them.
The Makerfield by-election will be tough. Votes will need to be earned.
Andy is the best chance of winning and that should override factional advantage or propping up one person.

I’m hearing the NEC isn’t as sewn up for Burnham as many are reporting. The vote is on a “knife edge” I’m told by sources close to the decision making body. “Everyone is wavering.” Number 10 might be briefing it is comfortable with shortlisting Burnham, but that’s not to say the 9 member officer committee agrees. “I don’t think any of us are taking notice of what [Number 10] are saying”, I’m told. NEC officers now expected to decide on Sunday or Monday.

78 years ago, 800,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes. Britain made it possible.
Today, Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Britain made it possible.
78 years of the Nakba - and 78 years of British complicity in crimes against the Palestinian people.

Nottingham Uni has reached ‘Paris ’68’
Students & staff should occupy offices of senior management, demand immediate reversal of job cuts & replacement of Council with a body elected by staff/students
History shows a few symbolic effigy burnings of the main culprits never hurt

What a legend! Love Rhun ap Iorwerth even more now. A man of the people not afraid to stand up for what is right. Colonialism is a disease afflicting those of low IQ which is demostrated here by this account. Cymru am byth 🏴🇮🇪
Plaid Cymru Exposed@PlaidExposed
Cymdeithas yr Iaith is an organisation well-known for its prolific vandalism of road signs displaying English names, invading radio studios & injuring hosts, vandalism of government buildings, and racking up 1000+ arrests. This is Rhun ap Iorwerth protesting on their behalf👇

Has everyone forgotten what Labour have achieved in under two years?
With three more years just imagine how things could be!
DON’T DO THIS!

Labour don’t need opposition do they? They can do it for themselves!
People have campaigned and waited 14 years for a Labour govt and it’s being ruined by a few overreaching and over ambitious MPs and a mayor. I am incandescent! 😡😡😡

Quick reminder for those who haven’t managed to grasp recent history.
Ed Miliband was the Labour leader who lost to David Cameron, thereby helping to open the door to Brexit - and the chaos that followed. He is less charismatic than Starmer.
Andy Burnham was hammered by Jeremy Corbyn in the 2015 Labour leadership election.

I strongly dislike reporters shouting at Ministers as they enter Downing Street.
It's performative nonsense. Not once in history has one of them replied.
It's childish and unprofessional.

Palantir has been granted “unlimited access” to NHS patient data.
This is the same company that is involved in mass surveillance and genocide.
We did not consent to this. Get Palantir out of our NHS, now.

To be honest, the behaviour of the press pack outside Downing Street is a national embarrassment, and has been for a long time. Yelling out questions aggressively like a bunch of drunk pub bores.
Grow up and be actual journalists.

If Labour MPs detonate this government, the calls for an early general election will be immediate.
Reform will claim that whoever succeeds Starmer will be illegitimate, because they didn’t win the election.
The media will hound them, as relentlessly as they have Starmer, and the cycle continues.
This all plays into Reform’s hands. It’s exactly what they want.
