History is repeating itself. There were more LGBTQ people removed from government during the lavender scare than were suspected communists during the red scare. They only really taught the latter in history classes. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavende...

A good read Often border towns are not connected by train or public transportation to their nearest towns - those across the other side of an imaginary line that is supposedly the border - and unsurprisingly the residents feel forgotten far from the centre This is why politicians need to visit

Every UK mainstream party that copies the Reform message is amplifying and assisting their work on behalf of Putin, which is intended to break Europe and destroy NATO by plunging the USA and the UK into a fascist self inflicted recession and isolation.

3 years of war, death. Yet, the brave people in Ukraine do not give up. They could live in peace this second if Putin would stop his aggression. They deserve support from the West. Not cynical mockery. Europe must stay united and strong. Especially now.

A democratically-run political party. Wow, what a radical idea. Nigel Farage claims to have handed Reform UK over to its members, however the leader still has huge amount of control and cannot be easily removed. The Green Party is run democratically by our members. Join today ⤵️

📢 Trois ans après l'agression russe en #Ukraine, toute notre solidarité va aux victimes de la guerre et aux populations déplacées. Face au désengagement américain, l’Europe doit sortir du déni et bâtir une défense forte et solidaire. L’Ukraine est notre rempart: donnons-lui les moyens de résister.

I remain in solidarity with the Ukrainian people, now three years into battling Russia’s brutal invasion. Putin is a tyrant, and his lies must not be amplified. The UK must do more: tighten sanctions, support refugees, and stand firm in defending democracy and Ukraine’s future.

After 3 years of Putin's unprovoked aggression, we still stand unequivocally with #Ukraine; fighting not just for their survival, but for freedom, democracy, and their rightful place in Europe. We will not be divided by dictators or far-right forces. We know where we stand and what we stand for.

🔊 A bit of hope. 'Net zero economy is booming'. 'The figures contradict claims by Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party that “net zero is crippling our economy”.' 2050 net zero emissions target put into law in 2019 by the Conservatives and new leader, 'Kemi Badenoch, has called it a “mistake”.'
