*New* campaign action on Marks & Spencer - any help getting the first few signatures going would be greatly appreciated! actionstorm.org/petitions/ma... We're sharing this first on Bluesky as this is so much friendlier (and troll free, so far at least!) than any of the other platforms right now!

A significant cyber op is actively trying to take this *VERY IMPORTANT* news article down and erase its existence.

If you want to get rid of all "DEI hires," you'd fire everybody, then rehire blind, based upon qualifications only. But if you're a racist POS, you fire all the Black people and call them "DEI hires," while appointing less qualified white people. Not that hard to understand. #DEI #racist

Of the Chiefs of Staff, vice chiefs of staff, and judge advocates general of the three branches, Trump fired all the women and Black people.

Wales Is Leading the Way on Ending Lying in Politics The Welsh Government looks set to impose bold new restrictions on lying in politics. It’s time for Westminster to follow suit bylinetimes.com/2025/02/19/w...

New billboard in Clacton, Farage’s constituency. He’s still the UK’s #1 grifter. No other MP takes more from second jobs while being employed to represent their constituents in Parliament

Here's a riddle:

⚠️ Content warning: homophobia ⚠️ We delivered over 70, 000 complaints to Ofcom’s doorstep about GB News broadcasting hate. Tag @ofcom.bsky.social in the comments to make sure they see it 👀

Reform are panicking about people pointing out that they want to replace the NHS. So please don't share this clip of Nigel Farage saying he'd rather healthcare was done through insurance companies.

👏 “After one year of the zone, nitrogen dioxide from traffic was lower, GP visits for respiratory illnesses were down by 25% and those for heart problems decreased by 24%”

We are still furious about the despicable homophobia of GB News presenter Josh Howie. Please join the thousands of others who have already used our tool to complain to Ofcom about him. action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

Average UK state pension (SP) is £10,500 a year. In 2022, 110,000 pensioners died from fuel poverty. 28% of over 55-year-olds have no other pension saved, will completely rely on SP. 23% of 18-34-year-olds expect to solely rely on SP. Crisis looming. SP must be aligned with the living wage.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Would be a shame if this Express poll didn’t go they way they hoped… 👉🏼 xd.wayin.com/display/cont...

If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it We cannot allow them to rewrite history. If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely youtu.be/MUrf7addcTA?...

Let Denmark cook.

Let's be clear about what happened today: Donald Trump tried to cut a giant chunk of government funding — hurting preschoolers, seniors, and veterans. Trump's illegal shutdown is blocked for now — but don't forget that he tried to cut programs supporting working families.

There are more than 10m children in school in the UK…but, per Times, 3,000 might move to state sector because of VAT rise…so Whitehall is “braced” 😲😲😲 Says a lot about UK media bubble, the way this story is reported. You pay VAT on luxuries. Private schooling is that.

New Christmas lights just went up in Clacton. (Farage is still the MP who makes most money from second jobs. By a long way.)

The moment PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION took its first step through parliament. This is in huge part thanks to YOU, and all the campaigners pushing for years. Let’s keep it going, join us and together we’ll keep pushing our MPs 🙌 MVTFWD.com

Parliament votes through first step to introduce PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION 💥 A long journey and a hard fight by many campaigners. We just had one of the most disproportionate results of all time, in our opinion mainly due to mass tactical voting. Maybe we can vote with our hearts next time 💘
