He's right. Why are progressive voters ignored? Why are the views of bigots, racists, fascists and the gullible of more value to Labour and the Conservatives? Why are decent people who care about the planet taken for granted at best and abused at worst? skywriter.blue/pages/george...

Our NHS is not for sale. Trade talks with Trump must not open the door to US healthcare companies profiting from our NHS. Keir Starmer must protect our NHS by keeping it off the table during negotiations. Join me by adding your name to 38 Degrees’ petition: act.38degrees.org.uk/act/-don%27t...

If you look back at history, there were many international commentators who said that Hitler wasn’t serious about the things he was saying. It was all for show.

Strong, sensible, progressive move from Davey. It's time to really increase pressure on Labour from the Remain side. They musn't go into negotiations thinking the danger is only on the Leave side.

Ugh politics. In other news my aged cat is still alive, albeit with black legs that don't have the oomph he's used to so he keeps falling. I'm on on dreaded antibiotics and the only upside of that is that I have to eat properly or feel like death 😹😹

If Cummings is indeed aiding and abetting Musk in his attempt to overthrow the UK's democratically elected government, doesn't that make him guilty of treason?
