The Poppy does not belong to the Far-Right. It belongs to me, and all my comrades who down through the years fought against fascists in their varied forms. Never forget - the Far-Right routinely sell poppies on our streets and then pocket the money. So be careful who you buy your poppies from.

JUST TAX THE FUCKING SUPER RICH FFS - IT'S NOT HARD TO BE MORAL.

calling others liars is going to come back to haunt him

Seems apropos right now. Goodnight. youtu.be/6xTQxSkTXww

Imagine a world where we are no longer dependent on oil and nuclear energy. It's coming and it's better and that's why the vested interests are doing everything in their power to stop it

I think Trump is likely proof that the 'Big Filter' is just ahead of us.

Thank you to the hundreds of devoted supporters who were there to cheer me on at the press conference today.

For 7 years Meghan was the "heartless daughter”… She stayed silent while our disgusting press gave her endless abuse And probably because she trusted the Met to do its job …and somehow she's still the one getting the blame?!

Water companies want to push up bills even further. AND Thames Water wants an excruciatingly expensive £2.4 billion bailout. No more water company failures at our expense. Let them go bust! 1/2

“The case for Rejoin must be a case for Europe as our home: a continent…prepared to take on and defeat Russian imperialism, an economic union which can shelter countries from the storm of a global trade war” A team we want to belong to. Because it strengthens us all. www.arguably.uk/p/europe-is-...

I always remember Koenig coming up in the titles and thinking what an exotic name it was. RIP. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/w...

To everyone getting their knickers in a twist… All because @andyburnham.bsky.social suggested a sensible conversation about freedom of movement …do you perhaps need reminding of this?

Matt Brittin is deeply embedded with Google and its global alignment to the (far) right of politics in every nation. That's why!

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

“While each of us (voted Brexit) for different reasons, we all believed that the UK could do a better job of running its own affairs than *unelected officials* in Brussels could." Ben Houchen... November 2020 Six years later 👇👇👇

Beware of innocent sounding organisations funded by racist billionaires gleaming with respectability reaching into every aspect of society "Lest we forgot: Professor Jason Arday is dead and the campaign hasn't stopped " via The UK Against Hate

Yissss

Imagine how proud they would be if he was a white 3 year old. What a bunch of shitty worthless people racists are.

If patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel, then "performative pietism" is surely the panic room inside.

I suspect many new Reform UK Councillors saw it as a way to get rich quick - but baulk at the prospect of actually having to do some work to benefit not just themselves "Oldham's first Reform leader says he is leaving politics after shock resignation" www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater...

Politicians should look at the UK economy as a CEO would, says Lloyds Bank CEO From a bank that hasn't investigated HBOS frauds. No thank you. Companies enrich shareholders. Countries have entirely different purpose, governance, accountability. Must not be treated as corporations. archive.ph/lj45s

You shoot the great places and the pretty people -- All those girls and boys... Shoot ‘em dead...

Newspapers call the tolerant left "extremist" While right wingers with vile bigoted views are portrayed as sensible & moderate Why? Because the media is owned by tax-avoiding billionaires who want no-one to #BlameMillionairesNotMigrants for poverty and campaign to #TaxTheRich meme via Steve Benson

While the far right incite destructive rioting ... "A group of asylum seekers in our area are redecorating the community centre which has welcomed them over the last few months. They also cook food for anyone who visits the centre, and are very welcoming and polite." via Sarah Ha & Linda MacDonald

I wonder if Nigel Farage is having the same problems but just not telling us, just as he won't admit to the almost complete non-appearance of all the promised 'Brexit benefits because then he might have to #ApologiseForBrexit "Crazy set of circumstances." via Joshua ABD

Armed ICE agents are moving through Puerto Rican neighborhoods with assault rifles, threatening residents who film them with pepper spray. In Villa Capri, a restaurant owner refused agents entry when they tried to enter without a warrant. Watch and share everywhere!

Brazil and Serbia, defying rise the tide of autocracy. This is how we do it, everywhere. 🌈

Stop the selective outrage! "While politicians and sections of the media obsess over small boats and immigration, here's a story that deserves national outrage! ... Child abuse has no race, religion or nationality ..." www.facebook.com/groups/12182... via The Fabian Society Exposed

They are - all of them - Traitors.

Wait.... 29% of Reform voters would consider rejoining the EU... and 16% don't know And a mere 51% would vote to stay out. My giddy aunt - this is bonkers

And let us not forget - Jeremy Hunt had 500,000 shares in a 'Homeopathy Company' and desperately tried to force the #NHS to use his company to push its pseudoscience onto desperate patients. Everything (c)Hunt did in government was to benefit himself at the expense of the public.

Leaky Sue strikes again.

This is what the hard right is doing: destroying media freedom. And funny how the BBC doesn’t report on this protest. Only on protests organised by the far right or by the far left.

Reform and Tories have pledged to reverse ULEZ repeatedly.
