Let me guess, wealthy people who moved to Dubai to avoid paying taxes now want the countries they moved from to protect them?
Full on Corbynista fury in the responses to this. The far-left's occupation of the Greens is yet another reason why the party won't replace Labour - but will hurt it enough to let in the far-right.
@zackpolanski.bsky.social why has your Urdu election advert got pictures of Keir shaking hands with the Indian PM?
Doesn't feel relevant to Gorton and Denton.
I can hear the dog whistle.
This Green use of Starmer-Modi resembles a leaflet that Labour put out in Batley in 2021 about Boris Johnson + Modi. The party was heavily criticised for that. I think the lesson is not to pitch to voters from one background with messages you can't show + defend to voters of every background.

Thank you for your condescending advice.

PM words on Gaza: 29 July 2025 www.gov.uk/government/s...
I honestly think I live in a constant state of disappointment when it comes to our politics.
Yes I know there are no easy solutions but our democracy needs a healthy dose of realism & honesty, not the glib, short sighted solutions politicians of all parties offer us.
Hey ho.
I think I just live in a constant state of disappointment
I think they can regain your trust with a mixture of honesty & a commitment to a better politics. i donβt think there are any easy answers to what ails our politics though. But Iβd like to see Labour admit theyβve got things wrong and a commitment to try better
Yet again itβs the curse of social media
I actually really, strongly, disagree with this.
Elected representatives' first responsibility is to those they represent, their electors. It is not to a small, fee-paying group of supporters. Nor should it be.
It's the fundimental issue with the classic CLPD approach; it's corruption
Politicians talk about a better politics but rarely follow their own advice.
People get easily angered - I think itβs important to hold all parties to the same standard - Labour have been a disappointment but I can also say that the rhetoric coming out of the Greens has also been disappointing.
Has anyone reported Malcom Bulner to the police?
Reform UK Deputy Leader of Lancashire Councillor Simon Evans has reposted a Facebook post saying Natalie Fleet MP should be shot.
The post also has a fake quote designed to stir anger.
What is more disgusting is that she was groomed and raped as a teenager.
Simon Evans must resign
one of the world's largest smuggling networks has accidentally exposed itself because of a stupid e-mail configuration blunder, which has revealed around 50 apparently unconnected companies are all sharing back-office functions: www.ft.com/content/4310...
aaaaaand: 175 entities in the network were sanctioned today by the UK.

You know - which political party hasnβt accidentally retweeted an organisation that platforms the far right β¦

No. And thatβs the problem. But I sometimes expect better from the Guardian (I know I shouldnβt!)
Misogyny. Racism. Disability slurs. Homophobia.
Just few things Iβve seen on a supposedly progressive social media site.
Beginning to think that this kind of stuff is endemic in our society!
