Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

Good business, for some. War is very profitable, for some.

Rarely do I hate. I don't like to hate. Hating is such a strong thing. It doesn't sit well with me.

I hate this man. Truly hate.

Most Reform members believe non-white UK citizens born abroad should be forced or encouraged to leave, poll finds Nigel Farage’s recent efforts to woo centre-ground voters may cause tension in party’s right flank, says Hope Not Hate

Do recent recruits not realise that their own voters want to deport them and/or their parents or do they just not care?

Important to remember that the people most enthusiastic about bombing brown people are almost always the people most hateful towards brown people.

Brown and Muslim too... of course.

Maybe it’s you that’s wrong, Wes.
Maybe you’re just not appealing to anyone much.
You’re not convincing Reform voters but, in pandering to them, you’re pissing everyone else off.
Progressives have had a decade of being scorned and ignored. Don’t criticise us for minding and doing something about it.

Imagine devoting your entire career to selling the idea that the British public hates wokery and is clamouring for radical right wing populism, only to then be defeated in an actual election by the most left wing possible coalition of politicians and activists in the country.

It's got to hurt

They are rare because of the Party system. It's not about representation of the people, it's about representation of Party interests and the pockets of their funders.

Summary:

The electorate is restless.
Labour is rudderless.
Greens are hope.
Tories are hopeless.
And Reform’s silent majority has once again turned out to be a noisy minority.

‘How can I start again at 68?’ Maria has spent 50 years in the UK – and is fighting deportation She left the Netherlands for Britain in the 1970s at just 17. Now, after receiving a short suspended sentence, she faces removal to a country she hasn’t lived in for five decades or visited since 1999

This is utterly shameful. I am ashamed I voted for this government, if this is what they have become.

In a landscape where the Party matters most to Labour they would rather die on the hill than put that to one side.

+achieving absolute power matters more than PR.

One of them, either Labour or Green, should have stepped aside. Diluting the vote between them is going to hand seat after seat to R.
