"They are not on Twitter, but they are in local communities" The Lib Dems could not have paid an agency for a better slogan.

Posting footage of deportations impresses no one. Reform voters don’t think it’s enough hatred and the rest of us turn away from yet more performative cruelty. The Labour vote disintegrates. If Labour can’t decide who it should be talking and listening to, then it ends up without an audience.

This is the pivotal point, which the Starmer government must understand electorally if it can't understand it politically

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

You might expect that one of the world's biggest media organisations admitting to illegal practices in accessing private information about a member of the royal family and a government minister would be front page news across the board, but apparently not.

@jessphillipsmp.bsky.social is magnificent.. smart, brave, totally committed and effective. Why is it the power men feel the need to attack the good ones?

Sure it was shit. Yeah it cost billions and achieved sweet FA. But at least they owned the "wokes". (AM I DOING THIS RIGHT?)

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. Repost if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.

Our best wishes are with every fox out there today trying to escape the hunts. And a big fuck you to the cowards that are hunting these animals for kicks

#RefugeesWelcome please share.

A right-wing Nativity scene : No unmarried mothers, no Middle Eastern people, no refugees, no one seeking emergency accommodation and definitely no wise men.

flashback to the year 2019: More than 10,000 people in the constituency of Saffron Walden have signed a petition to revoke Article 50 and remain the EU...but MP Kemi Badenoch says “we run the country based on elections and not petitions”. www.saffronwaldenreporter.co.uk/news/2188696...

Disappointing from LDs on farms. I get that they see opportunity in rural seats, but to say NO landowners, of any size, should pay inheritance tax, attack gov’t for NICs, and not even mention Brexit, duff deals, etc. is pretty poor. We need more heft on the left & they’re going Cleggy again. #BBCQT

Made the move and Bluesky already feels better……
