Zack Polanski, "2,600 have been arrested for standing with Palestine Action"

Luke is part of a government that is selling off our NHS data to a US spy tech firm, Palantir.

Luke is part of a government that is subservient to Donald Trump - a dangerous President who wants to annex Greenland.

Luke is part of a government that is increasingly desperate & utterly rudderless.
Both the Greens and Reform are soft on Putin and soft on NATO.

The greens want to pull out of NATO and Reform’s Leader says Putin is the leader he admires the most.

Labour takes a different approach: a NATO-first strategy, increasing defence spending and renewing our forces.

Those mocking Polanski for tearing up about greyhounds completely miss the point.

We’ve been governed by sociopaths for 15 years who let 250,000 die from austerity and cheered & laughed their way through it all.

Finally, we have someone capable of empathy.

They're currently rioting in Argentina because new labour laws have been passed. Be careful what you vote for. All the right parties want this free market rip up of workers rights.

This morning I posted our petition to get Palantir out of our NHS and our public services.

Over 40,000 people have now signed it - thank you.

Please do keep sharing!

Stop Palantir taking over our public services!
Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir.

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records.

Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'.

Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract.

A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful.

Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.

The government response to the Autism Act Committee lacks any substance - and it’s unacceptable

Delaying a new national strategy for autism is not just about paperwork - yet the Labour government doesn't seem to see this

This couldn’t be clearer. Bannon’s texts to Epstein in mid July 2018 - “overthrowing May right now” and in “London with Boris” as well as his appearance on LBC with Nigel Farage are prettying damning evidence of a cross party plot with foreign backing

If Reform do get in it will be because people kept dismissing criticism of the government instead of insisting they do better.
