Labour could be left with an outright majority in just Newham and Redbridge councils, if forecasts are correct. The Greens, if they were to run candidates in every ward, could also take Lewisham, Waltham Forest and Greenwich, as well as Wandsworth, Hammersmith & Fulham, Hounslow and Brent.
Tony Travers, a professor of local government at the London School of Economics, told the Guardian that Labour was on course for a “political earthquake” in the local elections in London if Bombe’s modelling reflected the actual result in May.
GREENS SURGE
Senior party figures in the capital have warned Labour bosses to urgently address the threat of the Greens. Sadiq Khan said that Labour faced an “existential threat” in parts of the country in May.
“Without a change in course, we risk a repeat of losing large Labour strongholds,
Another Labour MP added: “It’s going to be a total catastrophe for us in London. If we lose swathes of voters on our progressive flank then we’re doomed. We need to start listening to them.”
Well there's a novel idea Sherlock

“The government needs to demonstrate that they’re not taking liberal, progressive voters in the capital for granted,” a senior London Labour figure warned
What like they have done for the last 30 fucking years
Labour Party are so fucking removed from our lives they may as well be on another planet
LONDON GREEN TSUNAMI COMING
New data that suggests Labour could drop from first to fourth place in London in the May elections – losing control of all but two of their councils – with the Greens soaring into first place to take nine.

“Downing Street seems unable to avoid being sucked into the orbit of Trump’s deranged confusion of blockbuster with international conflict.”
The Green party said the TikTok clip “has echoes of videos coming out of the White House glorifying war”.

Exactly👍
I think Starmer will be long gone by next GE
👍
Not only does the latest polling put the Greens ahead of Labour for the first time in history, it also shows that of those who voted Labour in 2024, only 37% intend to do so now: an astonishing collapse. To appease the billionaire press, Starmer’s government has burnt its house down.
UK 1935
Jews in Britain were accused of of refusing to “assimilate”, of being “un-English” and of “leeching” off the state. The Imperial Fascist League issued stickers with the slogan: “Britons! Do not allow Jews to tamper with white girls.” Jewish immigrants were blamed for unemployment
UK 2026?
By 1934 the Times, the Daily Mail, the Express, the National Review and the Morning Post, had spent the preceding 20 years whipping up paranoia about a “flood” of “aliens” and “undesirables” entering the country. “Aliens” and “undesirables” tended to be code for Jews.
We re-live history
in 1924, Joynson-Hicks had “established himself as an unapologetic antisemite”. As home secretary, he “raised the hurdle” for immigrants to achieve “naturalisation” “from five to 10 years, and to 15 years for Russians”. “Russians” meant Jewish refugees,
Swap Muslims for Jews
100 Yrs of UK racism
If they can at least force Proportional representation as a deal for supporting a Government I would take it
"Netanyahu has had a 30 year dream of a greater Israel"
This would include Gaza, The West Bank, Lebanon, Syria and Jordan
It's maniacal colonialism coupled with racist hatred
Otherwise called Zionism

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tells i24 TV news that he feels he is on a “historic and spiritual mission,” and that he is “very” attached to the vision of the Promised Land and Greater Israel.

agreed👍 the growth of Green Party membership has been nothing short of phenomenal and it does not appear to be slowing
hasn't it just👍
I think it's all to play for
come the next GE Starmer will not be PM
Trump may have destroyed US military credibility
Farage's reform already look to have peaked
Baddenoch will still be irrelevant
IMHO a Green government is possible
so is a hung parliament
America.
