Very telling tonight on Question Time how much the Labour minister absolutely did not want me to talk.
Every time I even began a sentence he started to try and distract me.
It's not going to work on anyone.

While I think most literate people can be insightful and articulate in text form, if given enough time to collect their thoughts, it is a rare talent to be able to do that verbally, in real time, while responding to interruptions, hostile jibes or pointed questions and STILL get your point across.

The country wants a wealth tax on assets.
They're panicking because "won't the rich just leave" has been utterly debunked.
They've got no actual argument.

Striking in this debate hosted by @krishgm.bsky.social how many people in the comments are saying that a wealth tax at this point is so obvious.
Is it any surprise that the Labour Governments response is to continually try and take swipes at the Green Party?

The stupidity of Farage’s latest ‘plan’ is staggering.
Claiming they’d save British taxpayers money by ripping up international commitments and starting a trade war with Europe is the puerile foot-stamp of a party that uses prejudice as policy. Ruinous nonsense.

I’m not against ID cards per se. But I am against them now. For this. As yet another weapon in the arsenal against immigrants. This isn’t taking the fight to Reform. It’s using immigrants as a human shield while Reform keeps punching you in the face.

💰 Oh wait, no it's not! They're in the pockets of big oil and gas companies!
🙉 Their denial of reality is straight out of the Donald Trump playbook.

Labour has become unrecognisable, leaving the Greens as the party to:
- take children out of poverty
- keep public services in public hands
- address the crises in health and social care.
Greens - justice for you AND the planet.

Essentially *all* research and expert assessments show that this does not work. It will not counter Farage, but literally push votes towards Reform.
It genuinely is impossible to overstate how profoundly stupid and strategically illiterate this decision is.
You cannot out-Reform Reform.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer is preparing tougher measures on immigration to stem a record flow of arrivals across the English Channel and stave off the threat posed by Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party after it made sweeping gains in this week’s local elections.

Hahaha.. Just seen a clip of Farage pretending to be Trump and telling council staff if they work on climate change or DEI initiatives, then they need to look for new jobs.
What an utter tosser.
Tough, thankless administrative work awaits his motley crew of inexperienced halfwits.
It’ll be carnage.

In decades to come, statues, parks and streets will stand to the example of President Zelensky.
Trump will stand only as a reminder of the worst excesses of entitlement, stupidity, evil, and privilege and how collectively they brought about the Downfall of America.
