Reports from tallymen – unofficial but usually reliable observers at count centres – gave Connolly a wide lead on Saturday soon after ballot boxes were opened at 9am. Continue reading...

Great discussion at TWT on how the left must unite — Your Party and the Greens — to keep Farage out of Downing Street.

But unity isn’t uniformity. Your Party will be truly anti-imperialist: no diplomatic ties with a genocidal, apartheid Israeli state and no greenwashing NATO.

It's time for the rich to pay.

www.tickettailor.com/events/socia...

It's quite simple.

Very rich people are blaming immigrants and disabled people, for stealing all the money (exactly as Adolf Hitler did).

Because they are stealing all the money.

This trick is literally hundreds of years old, and it is the only one they have.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

If you want to abolish a tax on poor people you cut VAT.

If you want to abolish a tax that is almost entirely on Multimillionaires you cut Stamp Duty.

Please, please, please, don't be too stupid to understand this.

I grew up in Lozells, just a stone’s throw from Handsworth — where much of my family still live and where I went for sixth form. It’s a proud, diverse, working-class community. Robert Jenrick called it “as close as I’ve come to a slum” and complained he “didn’t see another white face.” This is white-supremacist thinking dressed up as “legitimate concerns”. The political and media establishment normalises this racism, but we won’t stay silent. We stand with all our communities and against the far-right.

Wanted: a prime minister who can stand up to the far right Whatever his other attributes, Keir Starmer is not the right man to take the fight to Nigel Farage's far right

“Whatever his other attributes, Keir Starmer is not the right man to take the fight to Nigel Farage's far right”

by Richard Haviland

A terrorist has attacked a Mormon church in America setting it on fire and shooting multiple people.

This is their truck.

Important to get it out before they blame it on 'the left'.

The #GlobalSumudFlotilla is delivering life-saving aid to Gazans deliberately starved under Israel’s genocide, including 1 million children.

Spain is sending a naval vessel to protect the flotilla and ensure aid reaches those in desperate need.

The UK must do the same.

I couldn't find a full transcript of the Musk conversation with Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (aka Tommy Robinson) at yesterday’s London demonstration so I made one myself

many shocking bits to this but perhaps especially the rhetoric of English villages under attack from “marauding"

Over the last 24 hours, has British TV mentioned that Tommy Robinson is a traitor serving Putin, as well as being a fascist thug, a venal grifter, and a convicted criminal?

Most of our news media, either through right-wing control, timidity, or laziness, is betraying democracy.

Where is Keir Starmer? Where is the leadership?

Fascists marched on our streets yesterday and he hasn’t said a single word.

Instead the Prime Minister spends his time defending the “best pals” of paedophiles.

He is a coward. He should resign.

857 people were arrested yesterday, most of them over 60, for holding signs against Genocide.

Has anyone from the Free Speech brigade cried out about it.

Of course not, they only care about their Free Speech.

#ANewHope 🙏

Angela Rayner has resigned but Nigel Farage who uses Tax Havens to pay almost no tax hasn't.

Time for Farage to go too.

Labour, BlackRock, and the betrayal of socialist principles A year into government, Labour partnering with private capital indicates abandoned principles and prioritisation of corporate interests

"A year into government, Labour partnering with private capital indicates abandoned principles and prioritisation of corporate interests...

The scale of Labour’s transfer of public wealth into private hands has triggered fierce criticism not only from within the UK but also across the global left."

Reform UK members arriving at the conference.

Israel plans to take over Gaza City. Starmer says their plan is wrong & they must rethink it, but the UK is still supporting Israel with arms sales, training, RAF surveillance flights & more. Sign the petition: tell Keir he MUST end this support: 38d.gs/hwpb?utm_cam...

"I was Keir Starmer's political prisoner?"

"Really? And what politics got you imprisoned?"

"I publicly advocated for vulnerable people to be burned alive"

Revealed: How Palestine Action was banned Exclusive: Documents seen by Declassified reveal serious concerns within the UK government and MI5 about proscribing Palestine Action.

The UK government was secretly advised that Palestine Action is “highly unlikely” to advocate for violence while officials struggled to produce evidence the group posed a national security threat, it can be revealed.

Trump Wanders Around White House Roof and Shouts at Press in Bizarre Moment I watched Trump shout nonsense from the roof, lie on CNBC, and push racist garbage...and I’m supposed to pretend this is normal?

Scary. Not a single sane, competent, adult in the Trump regime.

Of the richest 1% in the UK, only 28% of them pay any Income Tax at all.

The richest do not work, they are Billionaires and Landlords and all their wealth is registered in tax havens and all their profits go there.

Stop repeating the lie that the richest pay tax, they don't.
