Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social stopped by #Handsworth yesterday and was welcomed by @edfreshwater.bsky.social of #BrumGreens in front of the #BenjaminZephania mural to show what a vibrant, diverse, integrated neighbourhood it truly is.
Don't let anyone tell you #Birmingham is not multicultural and proud!

Public disillusionment with the political class isn’t a passing phase.

It's the reality of a system where the dividing line between the state - and wealth, oligarchs and corporate power - has been systematically erased.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.

No refugee underfunded a school.

No refugee closed a hospital.

No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.

We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

“The government should be doing all it can to end this conflict, not to criminalise protests against it. But you do not need to sympathise with Palestine Action’s aims to believe that its proscription sets a chilling precedent and undermines democracy.”

Pouring paint on a killer plane, one that provides the means of pursuing genocide, is an act of humanity. Anyone who dares call it an act of terrorism is either a fool or a sponsor of genocide. [And I do not believe they are fools!]
👉NEW -- Palestine Action ban threatens all our civil liberties

Pouring paint on a plane is hardly 9/11. Non-violent protesters are not terrorists.

So the UK Met Office is inviting people to suggest up to 5 names for storms.

The unfolding catastrophe in Gaza - its scale, its cruelty, its deliberate, systemic destruction - is no longer simply a humanitarian crisis. It is a political and moral reckoning.

I have written to the Prime Minister to ask: Do more. Do everything that can be done. And do it now.
