Recently widowed old socialist who despairs about the neoliberal grip upon politics , the media, everything. Still enchanted by art and nature.

A- because it would jeopardise his donations from Zioist lobbyists. He's always been a wrong ' un .k

Powerful. But , sadly, doomed because you are asking an ambitious Tory to display empathy .
Helen, Helen, Helen Let me explain this to you in plain and exceedingly simple English. Disabled kids are most likely to have been born with their disabilities or conditions (as I was). I know this might be shocking to you Helen, but we don't just stop being disabled at 18. Being born with a disability is usually a lifetime deal. I tell you what, care to swap? You can have my cerebral palsy (and the benefits that you say come with it) and I'll take your fully functioning extremities and become an MP. Not a Tory one though, because I'm not a horrible bastard. By the way, if you accept my offer, good luck trying to wipe your backside, put your own clothes on, wash any part of your body or doing any sort of cookery (since you won't be able to hold a knife properly) are, and one more thing, forget about rolling yourself over in bed at night, you'll have to get somebody to help you with that as well. But yeah, apart from that, a lifetime on benefits is really fucking easy isn't it?

I've watched enough of the ITV Exposé on Reform. My Master's degree was in Leadership, and I taught the subject in higher education to police students and others. One of my favourite lines was: "Integrity is doing or saying the right thing when no one else is looking or listening." It's an amalgamation of thoughts and observations from various people, but it's a great starting point for becoming the best person, politician or public servant you can be.

Zack Polanski was invited on the BBC programme to be dogpiled by Zionist supporters and it didn't work

Remember folks, Opposing apartheid in South Africa was once seen as controversial. Opposing Zionism is not just a political position, it's a moral one.
"The Green Party has put the conversation back on track: the problem is not the lack of creative solutions to the Israeli occupation of Palestine. The problem is Zionism itself." Important piece by the great @RamzyBaroud 👇 arabnews.com/opinion/why-uk-…

You're allowing the media to set the agenda .
Zack did well on Kuenssberg, he’s good at doing what needs to be done. But I still wish he’d been facing the gross right wing barrage of stupid questions he was always gonna face about something like climate or cost of living instead of having to defend this stupid motion that damages the Greens. Wish we could all move on & draw a line under it but they’re not going to let go of it- that’s what the Greens are to the majority of the public now. And I think that’s a disaster.

This dick pic shared by Reform mayor Luke Campbell is way worse than any sent by Jaymey McIver.

She was a vacuous piece of shit when a Tory . She despises the public . She has got even worse in the Reform cess pit .
Andrea Jenkyns Reform UK's resident simpleton (not) in Lincolnshire will get rid of speed cameras when she's in charge of the police. In Lincolnshire speed was a contributory factor in roughly 25% of injury collisions, and about 100 were killed or seriously injured in the county. Way to go you utter dolt.

Hey Pat McFadden - you know you're looking for savings in the cost of welfare- especially for those who are unproductive ,..?
The core Sovereign Grant for King Charles from public purse to rise to £99.9m. 93% increase from £51.8m for 2024/25. 65% higher in real terms than in 2016/17. 25.3m people live below minimum income standard. We are in it all together, aren't we. leftfootforward.org/2026/10/…

Mothin Ali – apology and Correction   On 18 July 2024, I published a post on my X account in which I stated that Mr Mothin Ali, an elected official and Deputy Leader of the Green Party, was involved in the Harehills riots of July 2024 in which people attacked the police.   That statement was incorrect. In fact, Mr Ali was asked by the police to use his position of trust in the community to help bring about peace on the streets. Mr Ali attended the scene for that purpose alone. He was not involved in the disorder or violence in any way, and on the contrary he was one of the principal reasons of bringing an end to the disorder. I offer my sincere apologies to Mr Ali for my post, the harm I caused, and I have agreed to pay him compensation to vindicate his reputation.

The use by Zionist & their paid poodles of false accusations of anti- Semitism to enable the obscene crimes committed in the name of Zionism - is a cancer in our politics. There is nothing much more vomit-inducing than watching LFI earning their blood money.

A Labour Friend of Israel completely coincidentally in a coordinated display of " outrage " repeating the by now completely discredited anti-semitism scam. Meanwhile the slaughter goes on in Gaza and Lebanon.

That's a lot of " anti-semites" .
Zionists claim that criticizing Israel or opposing Zionism is antisemitic. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Orthodox Jews gather in New York to declare that Zionism violates the Jewish faith and does not represent Judaism.

Had the life squeezed out of them by the Internet.
Just thinking back to the days of buying NME and Melody Maker every week and how exciting that connection to new music was. Inky fingers. Cutting out photos for the bedroom wall. Writers who were the word of god. Proper connection. Nice era to grow up in.

BBC QT. Slightly less unwatchable than usual because of George Monbiot. Always a Reform on , never a Green on .
