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!

The singer is giving away millions – but the parameters for criticising the super-rich are very narrow, and hardly anyone qualifies, says Guardian columnist Zoe Williams

It’s terrifying to be in Elon Musk’s crosshairs. I’ve spent the last 48 hours dealing with the aftermath of these tweets. Everything he has said about me and Troublemakers is an outright lie.
The right to protest is at the heart of American democracy. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest. ✊❤️

Musk doesn't get how nonviolent protest works. Why are we Troublemakers? Because as Rep. John Lewis, RIP, knew: in hard times, good trouble is ESSENTIAL to all that we love.
When the world is at risk, when democracy is at risk, we're either troublemakers—or collaborators.
So: who's a Troublemaker?
