Another day, another stupid Excel chart.

I know it won't make any difference to his voters, who pay no attention to what's actually going on, and think foresight is for pussies and consequences can be wished away.

But if Farage was PM, we'd now be in a moronic, illegal war he demanded we join 2 days ago, and now thinks is a disaster.

Green win shows progressive voters are now voting against Labour as well as Reform Gorton and Denton byelection shatters Labour strategy of neglecting its core base while focusing on Reform defectors

I generally assume that political parties know what their constituencies think better than the rest of us do: they spend so much money on polling and focus groups.

But I would be *amazed* if they understood how viscerally they are loathed by young progressives for pushing trans people under a bus.

The more Labour try to appeal to these so-called 'Hero' voters with regressive policies and tough rhetoric the less likely those of us on the left of the grid are to support them.

For All Mankind is amazing - worth subscribing to Apple TV for that alone. I plan to resubscribe when the next season is released

Also, I think it's possible to dip in and out of House without having to watch it all in order

I get round to seeing most cult shows years after everyone else does. Only just seen Stranger Things (binged seasons 1-4 just before S5 came out) and Squid Game.

Tbf the US is on its way to being the same if not worse

I’ll just leave this here…

Had a great time at the theatre last night, Priscilla was better than expected (not seen the film) and I was dancing in my seat

Wouldn't it be amazing if we had a system where people could just vote for the parties they most like, rather than to stop the party they most hate?

First Past the Post needs to be put out of its misery.

I expect a lot of LibDem voters lent their vote to the Greens (I would have)

Well that's some good news to wake up to. Relieved to see @greenparty.org.uk win Gorton and Denton. Hopefully this will now also prompt Labour to stop pushing such hostile right wing policies against marginalised groups and recognise that people want progressive politics.

Well well, who knew?
Appealing to togetherness rather than prejudice actually works in this country…

Morning to everyone except for those about to vote for fascists. I hope your day is awful and that you get spalshed by a big lorry on the way to the polling station.

Do you want US-style healthcare debt and ICE murderers roaming our streets?💀

Don't be a fool and let the Reform nutters take another seat.

If you're not sure who to vote for, check tactical voting sites to see who is most likely to defeat them. 🗳️

Reform want to bring Trump’s thugs onto our own streets. They must be stopped.

Only a vote for the Greens in Gorton and Denton on Thursday can stop them.

Hope will defeat hate.

This is stenography, not news reporting. The BBC ought to provide some context, such as putting the scale of the changes which Reform claim are possible into context. This omits the major policy of revoking ILR and deporting legal migrants at unprecedented scale.
