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

FYI‼️ Jason Arday has been cleared of plagiarism for a fourth time. Just incase you haven’t heard it from the same media outlets who hounded him to his death.

Oh ffs. MPs must stop romanticising this absolute horseshit. Brexiters promised a land of milk and honey and delivered contaminated water and broken biscuits. We don’t want it. And we mustn’t be tied to failure and lies just because politicians want to cover up the utter mess they’ve made.

The Norwegian’s are a class act.

@garygilligan.bsky.social Thank you for the inclusion on your starter pack Gary. Much appreciated as always and look forward to checking out some new accounts 👍

Two major polls today putting Labour back into the thirties. This one puts Reform firmly in third place and would give Labour a majority of around 134

Tories are a joke. I am fed up with being told that only Tories can run the UK when their choices gave us: No sovereign fund like Norway Failure of water/rail privatisation Brexit disaster Near financial collapse from LT budget Deeply divided nation Record inequality Near collapse of gov departments

Why do we have to keep listening to these tory hypocrites?! 14 years of destroying this country and acting as though it was nothing to do with them. Sick of all of them.

Jeremy Hunt criticises Labour for having a million NEETs, even though 872,000 of them were under a Conservative gov He then argues against FOM because Europeans will come to Britain and take jobs, conveniently ignoring that some of those NEETs could go to other European countries to find employment

They are worried that he might come across as a really down to earth bloke who the voting public can relate to… he did 👍

Kemi Badenoch and Jacob Rees-Mogg, both Conservatives, criticised Andy Burnham for appearing on Gogglebox Here's Boris Johnson appearing on Eastenders when he was Mayor of London The double standards are extraordinary.

Poll finds that in a head to head Burnham would comfortably win against every other party leader.

"He won't spend more on defense" You wouldn't know from any of the coverage that defence spending is now higher than at any point under the last Conservative government, and is due to continue rising every year under Burnham

The Trussell Trust’s latest report makes for grim reading: • 9 million people are projected to experience severe hardship in 2026/27 • 3 million of them are children • That’s around 1 in 7 people in the UK What should Labour do in the Budget to make sure people can afford the essentials?

The #BBC News is a weak vehicle leading with a Megan Markle story. @channel4news.bsky.social leads with Israel and its inhuman hounding of Palestinians from land lived and worked for generations. Our BBC licence fee is not being spent on good investigative journalism.

Brexit voter in Makerfield tells Beth Rigby, "Everything seemed better when we were in the European Union. Boris Johnson just convinced everyone that we would be so much better off, didn't he" Another says he didn't make the right choice to vote for Brexit because Brexit ended FOM

Fiona’s disappointment was palpable as the British Steel worker said he was very happy with what the Gov was doing, as his mortgage was still getting paid. #bbcqt

When companies are owned by private companies as Tom Tugenhat prefers, rather than state owned, we find the bosses get a big bonus, the shareholders receive a dividend and infrastructure doesn’t get upgraded. British Steel, like water should be state owned. #bbcqt

I hope Geoff Norcott was complaining about the corridor care, the 7m on the waiting list and the lack of doctors appointments when the Tories were in charge for 14 years. #bbcqt

Some are finally waking up to the realisation of their 1980’s Tory vote for Thatcher. She sold off our oil to give tax cuts to the rich. The Norwegian didn’t and their Sovereign Wealth Fund gives them all a security we don’t have. #bbcqt

How ironic that I literally started reading this week Ray Bradbury’s 1950s classic book, Fahrenheit 451, about a dystopian future where all books are banned, and people live subservient, colorless lives on a diet of junk tv. www.theguardian.com/books/2026/o...

Rivers are among our most valuable natural assets, yet river health has too often been treated as a nice to have. 🌊 In our latest blog, Tessa Wardley of The Rivers Trust unpacks what the 2026 State of Our Rivers report tells us 👉

Jenrick: “No one has done more than Nigel Farage to stand up against racism and the far right” Farage has exploded a brexity, anti-immigration, small boats, mass-deportations, ICE-style cruelty, riots and racism bomb on the UK and now stands back and tells us only he can fix the damage he’s caused.

"This hatred, it’s like a cancer. It spreads because people will always say, ‘Oh, it’s just the illegals.’ It’s not. “From what I experienced, it was anyone who was remotely different, different creed, different colour, different sexuality.” www.theargus.co.uk/news/2665180...

Jeremy Hunt on who spent 6 years as Health Secretary underfunding the NHS and social care Says that a lack of resources in the NHS and social care is why we had so many covid deaths in social care

apple.news/A8iIvS5JTT2G... This was a hard watch but very very good. David Tennant is an underrated actor.

Badenough says 'Labour wants mass migration to get more votes', perhaps forgetting that immigration surged under the Tories when she was in Govt and has plummeted since Labour got in. 🤔

'Invasion! It's a National Emergency!': LATEST No arrivals for the last 7 days. Or the 5 days before that. And we haven't need a Refuk Govt stripping us of our human rights or shooting dinghies in the Channel. 🤔

Not bombshells. Entirely on brand “appalling behaviour” and “extreme racism” from an appalling, extreme and racist party, led by an appalling, extreme and racist man. The apples are all rotten because the tree is. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Simple answer - the majority right wing media not only let's him get away with it but continues to promote him... while many in Labour - for the most part - arw too timid to call him and his disgrace of a party out. Burnham has it in him. Needs to take the fight to Reform

Trump’s a Russian asset, Farage’s party is a racist enterprise, Putin wanted Brexit & if you tried to make a list of all the UK politicians & pundits who’ve backed all three, you’d be here for hours.

The sooner it collapses the better www.independent.co.uk/voices/edito...

Trump criticising Democrats, "You'll be thrown into a communist system where everybody get's healthcare" My view: In the UK we call it democracy and NHS

Standing up to the balaclava nonces. Inspiring.

Ever wondered how someone can look at rules to keep us safe from toxic chemical pollution + think they're a bad thing? @corporateeurope.org talks to Naomi Oreskes about the ideology behind that thinking, + the networks of influence spreading these ideas: corporateeurope.org/en/2026/08/i...

'Invasion': LATEST

'The government’s £15bn warm homes plan – insulating Britain’s homes and investing in heat pumps – which is currently under threat of cuts, would do more to cut the cost of living, create jobs and boost the UK’s economy than drilling for new oil.' www.theguardian.com/environment/...

There’s too much caution about calling Farage and Reform racist. They have no such timidity when they threaten to strip us of our rights and protections, to mass deport people and kill them at sea. They routinely insult, perv, vilify and hate people. You don’t ‘nice’ that away. You call it out.

Outstanding

Left: Conservative Helen Whately criticised Labour for 174,000 young people unemployed under Labour, suggesting they have the policies to fix it Right: But under the Conservatives, there were 872,000 young people unemployed, because of, wait for it, Conservative policy

This Clacton resident summed it up perfectly: being part of the EU helped keep us safe. It's time to restore our EU membership.

No surprise to see the fossil-fuel-funded Tories and Refukkers blame net zero for grid issues - assisted by the uncurious minds at the Express. Grid inadequacies are down to failings by the Tory-privatised National Grid to plan / invest. Labour separated out NESO in 2024 to begin to address this.
