I’d love to see Jack Smith appointed Attorney General by the next Democratic president! 🇺🇸💙

Madness

As long as the Tories are threatening to leave the ECHR, they aren’t a serious party. Consider it the ultimate red flag. Any party who’d take this entirely unnecessary and ruinous risk with our rights and our country’s security and wellbeing should never get its hands on power. (Letter, Times)

That's how it's done 👇

Classic cartoon updated

Are Reform UK *sure* they want to yoke themselves to people like Daniel “Danny Tommo” Thomas? Nigel Farage was adamant for years that most voters instantly recognise and intensely dislike football thug types like him and Tommy Robinson.

Don't miss GB News to hear me spout Reform propaganda and talk absolute bollocks completely unchallenged because for some reason I'm the only MP allowed to get away with this.

Susan Collins is blatantly corrupt. Hollywood couldn't write this in a script.

"We're here today to say... war criminals are not welcome in this city &.. this is bigger than just Netanyahu. This is about the fact that our govt has been funding and enabling genocide & apartheid & it has to stop" Beth Miller from Jewish Voice for Peace in New York yesterday.

Reform would only be the third largest party in a hung parliament, were an election held today, according to a new YouGov MRP. Labour would likely need the support of the Lib Dems and SNP in order to govern

Actress Susan Sarandon being arrested earlier today for protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations. One is speaking out against genocide, one is committing it. One was arrested, one was not.

Trouble is he'll now monetise this and make a whole heap of cash off it enabling him to do it bigger next time

⚡️JUST NOW: MASS UN WALKOUT ON NETANYAHU

Mind-blowing story in Private Eye about how the Telegraph's chief reporter reached out to James Orr (or meant to) after the Channel 4 donation revelations

Men have NO business telling women anything about their bodies or abortion. This woman ATE him up.

We can win this - but only with your help. linktr.ee/HSP_6thGreenMP

Piddington Parish Council - of the anti-asylum 'village that roared' fame - appears to have been flying (or endorsing flying) drones over a local gypsy & traveller site, their July minutes suggest

MS NOW reports that their White House reproter was denied access to the White House this morning despite a court order demanding she have access

Finally

Room empties out at the UN as Netanyahu begins his speech.

If these people were not so very dangerously stupid this would be very funny indeed. Jaymey McIvor of Reform insisting people from Chingford and Woodford are claiming asylum in Ongar.

No amount of money can buy you popularity. For every person who likes Farage, there are 2 or 3 who really loathe him. The number against him might even go up, the richer he gets. He simply cannot make people like him. And we will not change our minds. We’ll do whatever we can to make him fail.

Arresting RNLI volunteers and impounding their boats, is it, you walking scrotum-sack of a man?

This should be the moment people finally realise that Farage has turned them into fascists. If you’re choosing this dangerous inhumanity over the rescue work of the RNLI, you’ve lost your minds to racism and hatred.

Brutal 🤣

Once again: this shit is not compatible with democracy. Not for Reform. Not for Labour. Not for any party. It has to stop, and the thread below spells out my idea for how to do that. Tell your MP. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Okay, this got me.

Mark Carney: “I would now like to inform you that the teleprompter has ceased to function. Unlike a certain world leader, I do not view this as a conspiracy.”

Plus there's money in treating the symptoms more than fixing the cause

tonymurray1964 You see, Richard, your problem is that Reform is, basically, a bunch of horrible bastards doing horrible bastard things in a conspicuously horrible bastard way. In general, people don't like horrible bastards. I hope that's cleared things up for you Richard, you horrible bastard.

Yes. In their desperate bid to appear impartial but also, somehow, Farage-friendly, the BBC ends up promoting, unchallenged, the rancid ignorance and vested interests of the smug, tax-dodging super-rich. Seriously, sod off Ratcliffe, Dyson, Rothermere, Ashcroft, Lawson….

Fantastically dumb

Harborne: “My £36M is a philanthropic gift to the nation” Delo: “My £36M creates a level playing field for Reform” Farage: “I’ll slash CGT to save you £100M/yr” Reform: bought by millionaires to enrich millionaires. Reform voters… They. Are. Laughing. At. You. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Wow that's a massive betrayal of your son's trust

£72million can’t fix this. Nothing can fix this. This is Reform. A bunch of raging liabilities who shouldn’t ever be anywhere near public office. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

For years I've been told that aviation emissions are negligible, so don't worry your little head about them. But I've kept pointing out that there are - and will be - no good technical solutions, and they'll keep growing. Now we know just how big the problem is. www.carbonbrief.org/ccc-heathrow...

Just imagine the embarrassment if Canada ends up joining the EU before we do

Thank you for your attention to this matter...

The clock is ticking. We have to act now. Vote Green on October 8th. 💚
