If Farage wins the next election, it will be down to one person. His name is Keir Starmer.
This thread explains why.
1. Destroying faith in democracy. The UK decisively voted out the Tories, only for Starmer to give us a Continuity Tory government, shamefully beholden to economic power.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT

A mannequin was arrested at yesterday’s Lift The Ban action for silently holding a placard with the words “I oppose genocide - I support Palestine Action” written on it.

If you don’t laugh at the absurdity, you’ll cry

Just donated another £100. Anything we can do to stop this cynical assault by Yvette Cooper on the jury system and democracy.
Applause for protestors as they are arrested for holding a sign which says "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action"

Six hours after the protest started and there are still several hundred defying the unjust ban on Palestine Action.

It won't stop until the ban is lifted.

This is the type of corruption we are standing against.

A member of the House of Lords urged ministers to crack down on Palestine Action at the request of a US defence company that employs him as an adviser.

NEW: Paris residents are voting in a referendum today on whether an extra 500 of the city's streets should be pedestrianised & greened.

"For the past 25 yrs we've gradually been reclaiming public space for pedestrians & gentle traffic, & with 'garden streets' to create lungs within neighbourhoods.”

The same street in Levenshulme, Manchester, one hundred years apart.

The private motor vehicle is an invasive species, which gradually crowds out and suffocates the rich social life of our cities.

When cars don’t dominate the streets, life flourishes.

🌲 Buan mar an giuthas – lasting as the pine. 🌲

Scotland’s ancient Caledonian pinewoods have shaped our landscapes, culture, and history for centuries. Yet, less than 2% remain.

It’s time to restore and protect this life-supporting habitat before it’s lost forever. 👉 https://buff.ly/3I07IFM
