Drop this link in the replies to everyone you see posting about Reform. StopReformUK.vote It’s what we can actually DO about it.

Could you ever have imagined you would see a headline like this in your lifetime

I never understood how Nazi ideology took hold amongst previously respectable Germans; now, I’m learning how vulnerable we are to US citizens doing unimaginable things to their fellow citizens - in this case ICE agents. Hitler had SS colluders. Trump has ICE, DOGE, MAGA. www.aclu.org/press-releas...

‘We obsess over the angry young men going Reform. But what of the anxious young women going Green?’ Good piece by @gabyhinsliff.bsky.social on a political trend that’s been ignored in favour of the media’s bias towards a) Farage b) men in general www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

They’re arresting judges now

Watching America reduced to the needy lapdog of this preening fascist is truly horrific.

Earth Day is a reminder that we only have one planet. Sometimes, it takes seeing Earth from space to truly grasp how precious it is. 🧵⬇️ (1/4)

Huge shoutout to everyone this is what a global boycott looks like. Tesla just reported a staggering 71% drop in profits compared to Q1 of 2024. It’s working. Keep the pressure on.

Glad this got some coverage. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/a...

In the light of the Evan Davis podcast being pulled, your occasional reminder of who the Director of News at the BBC is........

BBC now scared of energy efficiency.

Did you catch this month's edition of Viscount In Focus? www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUuD...

When the BBC has become so terrified of the right wing press that it's banning its presenters from talking about heating systems, then something's gone terribly wrong

Going through Reform candidates for the locals and a lot of them sound like Downton Abbey characters. In Wiltshire I've found an Aurelia Margaret Amherst Stephenson and a Violette Ruth Francina Simpson.

Yes it was odd framing and I don't think would have been done that way with men. E.g. Farage is 61 and actually is a grandpa but is never described that way.

Just like he over-sold Brexit (which he now admits has failed), Nigel Farage now under-sells damage of 🇺🇸 trade deal — and patronises 🇬🇧 farmers by claiming we’ll be fine with farmers’ markets. US deal destroys food security, causes huge problems for Northern Ireland and decimates public health.

Shut down the youth clubs. Sell off the playing fields. Put up "no ball games" signs. Make public places hostile to teenagers. Then: "Young people, eh? Always indoors looking at their phones."

The Florida State University school mass shooter is 20 year old Bible quoting MAGA lunatic white male who is also the son of a Leon County Sheriff's deputy whose gun he used to do the shooting. Still not a Drag Queen. Still not an immigrant. Still not a trans person.

To the Trans community, we love you and we are with you 🏳️‍⚧️🩷💙🤍

Fascism is happening in front of your eyes. You can call it that or not - I don't give a fuck - but that is what it is.

Zelensky didn't start the war, you Putin-loving MF

Manipulating the Stock Market as President so the entire country loses while you and your billionaire buddies gain isn't just Insider Trading, it is Treason.

Almost 10 trillion USD in stock market transferred, because money does not disappear, it just changes the owner.

Surprise, surprise. readsludge.com/2025/04/07/m...

Somebody made money.

The economy is in free fall. The markets are collapsing. Our soldiers are dying. Our sensitive information is being leaked over text message and gmail. Random people are being kidnapped and sent to foreign torture prisons. And Trump is fucking golfing.

#BankruptMusk

Buckle up for one of the nastiest Black Mondays in Wall Street history.

I can only imagine the bailout package they are drawing up for themselves. As the saying goes, privatize the profits, and socialize the losses.

🇺🇸 Absolutely insane crowd here in Madison, Wisconsin — the Capital of Democracy! #Handsoff

Caroline Lucas, "Why doesn't Reeves also change her self imposed fiscal rules that are causing so much damage" "Why doesn't she look at a wealth tax?" "The idea that we balance the books on the backs of the poor which is exactly what Rachel Reeves is doing"

100,000+ people marched at the #HandsOff rally in New York!

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

OK, let’s see the best signs that you saw today.

Thousands join protests against Donald Trump and Elon Musk https://www.ft.com/content/4041b210-0f4a-4726-a964-6b17cfe1a6f4

Photos we received from today’s protests in a Trump +33 district in rural Kalispell, Montana.

Sedona, Arizona #3E #Handsoff #FiftyFiftyOne 📹 @afterthemarch.bsky.social

New York Fucking City. A full mile of people filled to the brim. Fascism is going to lose.

The people are fed up.

Portland, ME showed up. #HandsOff
