Congratulations to Labour on the win. And a special “congratulations” to the journalists who declared Zack Polanski a failure and his voters fools before a single ballot was cast. Predicting an election is journalism. Trying to dictate its outcome is propaganda. Know the difference.💚
Just two headlines and the election results aren't even in yet. The narrative? Zack Polanski failed. Voting for him is a waste. Not a single election result in. The British media have already declared the loser. That's not journalism. That's manufacturing defeat before a vote is counted.
I posted this on X, simply calling for a stronger left opposition. I got obnoxious abuse, with “deluded” for me and “lunatic” for Polanski among the milder replies. Musk’s X monetises grievance: rage at immigrants, trans people and the left, while billionaires pocket the wealth and dodge the blame.
A Zack Polanski win would matter. We need a strong left opposition, more Green MPs in Parliament, and Zack Polanski right at the heart of it.💚

Zack Polanski can win. And he should. Andy Burnham’s rise didn’t happen in a vacuum. The Greens helped force Labour to wake up: chasing Reform voters is costing them support. We don’t know how far Burnham will go. That’s why a strong left opposition, more Green MPs and Zack Polanski matter. 💚
We can win in Holborn & St Pancras. The Guardian followed me around and heard for themselves how excited people are to vote Green! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This is Reform’s great “defence of women” and “free speech”: a room full of cultists preaching about protecting UK until an actual woman says something they don’t like. Strip away the flags & manufactured outrage,& all that’s left is a cult of hypocrisy, dressing authoritarianism up as patriotism.
Content warning: Multiple men violently assault a female protester at Reform's conference at the Birmingham NEC, to the visible delight of Nigel Farage.
Reform called it a “hoax”, “hit job” and “establishment attack”. Yet Farage’s senior aide and Reform’s head of policy have stood down pending investigation.🤔 The hypocrisy is breathtaking. You can’t scream “corrupt establishment” for years, then cry “hit job” when the spotlight turns on you.

It's explosive. It's also completely predictable. To see Reform say on camera that Electoral Commission is useless and toothless wasn't shocking... it's plain to see.
