Who is at parliament today? I heard you are being made to queue in the sun without shade or water? If someone on site contacts me - @essehouse.bsky.social get some water delivered to ya. Just need a rough number of people there, a location to drop it off, and some people willing to go get it.

Parliament is making trans people queue outside in the heat with no shade or water to see our MPs as part of the mass lobby with @transsolidarity.bsky.social - there are people here with canes and older people who need to come inside, @ukparliament.parliament.uk this is dangerous!

Not pointing the finger especially at you @bbcdomc.bsky.social - and I deplore any personal abuse towards you - but you are the home and legal correspondent and it would be great to have a response from the BBC which talks a lot about the need to win trust.

“Tonight is his night. He deserved it. He won.” The result in New York City, if it holds, is a seismic event not just for the city but for the Democratic Party, making the 33-year-old Zohran Mamdani the clear frontrunner heading into November.

Given what a heartbreaking disappointment Labour has been to all who wanted change I hope it does remove the whip from another 120+ of its MPs. But, on this threat too, it will fail to make good on its promises.

Absolutely! We actually raise the MOST money from Bluesky than any other social media source. Bluesky outperforms YouTube, Threads, and our social media ads by about 2:1 per site. And I think a huge part of that is because it doesn't suppress links, moderates toxic content, and is transparent.

Forbes: Mamdani grew up to the baby age of 33 with enough food to eat and here's why that means he's dangerously incompetent Also Forbes: Here's 500 of the richest people under the age of 30 who are so smart, trustworthy & capable that we release an annual list in our news magazine about it

If he wins in November, he's going to need many competent progressive people who wouldn't touch city government with a ten foot poll to join city government. A long bench is needed. that's a lesson from Chicago.

I understand that they don't give a single shit about us, but it's really disappointing to see zero news coverage about how the court order to restore passport gender marker self-selection is being willfully ignored.

“We can be free and we can be fed. We can demand what we deserve.” Impossible to watch this Mamdani victory speech and not think you’re seeing a generational political talent.

You know what would encourage people to get more physical activity? No, it is not wearable fitness trackers. It is: 1. A liveable wage so people have time for it 2. Safe parks and other infrastructure for such activity But that’s too hard.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social’s spectacular victory in New York, against a well-funded “centrist” candidate with the corrupt mainstream media behind him, shows that @zackpolanski.bsky.social’s kind of radical policies will win big for the Green Party.

Looking damn good for Mamdani tonight. It would be a historic victory in New York, And it could hugely impact transgender New Yorkers. Story to potentially come soon, but for now, let’s watch it play out. Bonus predictit market prediction :)

let me tell you a story. in the last two weeks I've been visited by 3 Zohran canvassers -- young, half my age or a little more probably, all of them. they had all been at it for days or weeks. they looked visibly happy when I said I was voting for Big Z. zero Andrew Cuomo canvassers rang my bell.

I think Mamdani's win last night proves that campaigning on bold, progressive ideas (rather than wimpy centrism) is attractive to voters, and I hope the Democratic Party learns from this.

If Mamdani were to pull this out, what’s the over-under line for how much outside SuperPac money comes in to the general to try to stop him? $100 mil? $200?

Starmer’s illegal trans toilet ban in parliament coming into force yesterday is clearly designed to deter trans people from exercising our democratic right to lobby our elected representatives. Starmer’s Labour Party is not merely deeply transphobic, it is as anti-democratic as his owner, Trump.

the more i think about this the more i think that his campaign was a showcase for how centrists say they want democrats to campaign. the issue is that what this looks like varies from place to place. i would not expect mamdani to be able to win in virginia, but a mamdani-style campaign could!

You guys, Mamdani was the only Democratic candidate running who categorically opposed mask bans He was running against an establishment man with name recognition, huge amounts of funding & a history of abandoning the most vulnerable to die of covid This feels like a huge win for vulnerable people

Three years ago, a corrupt Supreme Court seized our rights and overturned Roe v. Wade. The resulted is just what we predicted. Women dying because they can't get basic healthcare. Doctors afraid to treat patients. We will not stop fighting until abortion rights are restored.

one more election thing this morning: because New York is large, people might lose sight of the Mamdani victory being local politics. but it is, and it points up the potential of local politics to reshape direction, to inspire broadly, to change the story
