BBC, SKY News et al WON'T be running the #Green surge as a news story.

Daily Politics shows won't be inviting #Polanski on.

This is what I love about Zack Polanski.

He isn't afraid to show his emotions, to be open about how situations like these affect him, all while remaining professional and well-spoken!
A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

Worth browsing through the responses and quotes. If Starmer continues down this path the local elections in six months time could be very difficult for him, esp in London.

Farage will bank the concessions that Labour have made to his agenda today and soon enough, maybe even tomorrow, announce a new set of even more extreme policies.
‘The core miscalculation is believing that adopting these positions will neutralise Reform. […] Both our historical knowledge and essentially all current data and research show the opposite: mainstreaming extremist policies legitimises them further and benefits only the original.’

Starmer's Labour really has become a parody of itself.
"Let's become the new Nasty Party. That'll win us back the support we've lost".
Never voting Labour again even tactically and under dire circumstances. Any labour councillor or MP, you'll live in infamy if you don't fight this poison in your party.

Shameful.
Labour is high on Farage’s supply.
This is as bad as anything proposed by Reform.

Leaving refugees in permanent limbo and unable to build a new life in the UK would be a complete abdication of our humanitarian responsibilities

Its all connected. Starmer is a puppet of fascist billionaires. Doing the bidding Ellison, Musk, Trump, Blair, Israel lobbyists; not serving the best interests of the British people.

Well done to starmer for destroying everything @teamlabouruk.bsky.social stood for
Wow.

The Greens are not just SECOND in this poll.

They're now 3 points ahead of Labour - who are fourth.

Time for Labour to stand down to stop splitting the anti-Reform vote!
