Wow.

The Green Party aren't just in second place on 21%.

They are FIVE points ahead of Labour.

The Gorton and Denton by-election is convincing Labour voters the Greens aren't a wasted vote.

And they're just 2 points behind Reform!

Keir Starmer when you were running for Labour leader you promised to introduce this legislation to stop the UK being dragged into illegal wars - it's time to show you were serious about that.

Dear Prime Minister,
In recent days we have seen a deeply concerning escalation in conflict in the Middle East 
following a series of illegal and dangerously irresponsible airstrikes on Iran by the United States 
and Israel.
You have now confirmed that UK bases will be used by the US for their operations in the area. 
This is a significant concession to President Donald Trump and one which risks drawing the UK 
into a dangerous conflict.
During your campaign to be elected leader of the Labour Party, you spoke compellingly about 
learning the lessons of the Iraq war. In particular, you set out legislation you would pass as 
Prime Minister, ensuring that military action is only taken if:
• The lawful case for it is made
• There is a viable objective
• Consent is given by the House of Commons.
We agree that such legislation is needed to prevent the UK from being dragged into destructive, 
illegal and dangerous wars abroad, and so we have today tabled the Armed Conflict 
(Requirements) Bill.
The Bill requires that
1. Before armed forces may be deployed for armed conflict, a Minister of the Crown must 
publish a statement setting out the reasons for the deployment, an assessment of its 
compliance with international law, the objective of the deployment and an assessment 
of the viability of that objective, and
2. Any such deployment must be approved in advance by a resolution of the House of 
Commons

I invite your support to pass this bill.
In an increasingly unstable world, it is more important than ever that decisions about the UK’s 
involvement in military action abroad are taken carefully, soberly, and with the best interests of 
the British people at heart. We believe this piece of legislation would ensure that.
Yours sincerely,
Dr Ellie Chowns MP

Today I tabled a bill which would require any UK military intervention to have a lawful basis, viable objective, and approval by MPs - legislation the PM once said he himself would pass when he was running for Labour leader.

He supported it then, and he should support it now.

The ones ones on this pack are all vetted. I've confirmed their vetting process is legit. But, unlike AltNPS, they are individual accounts, meaning they have their own posting voice - not rammed through marketing filter. They won't all post "nicely", basically, but their information is solid.

Half a dozen protestors are seen out of focus in the foreground while behind them, in focus, are thousands of people carrying Greenland flags - they are completely filling the snow-lined streets.

Photo of the Day.

Around HALF of Greenland’s adult population is believed to have attended anti-Trump protests today.

This photo was taken by Sean Gallup for Getty Images. It captures the thousands who gathered in the capital Nuuk, to reject Trump’s threats to take the island.

Don't stop talking about what's ongoing in Gaza - like Iran, Ukraine, Sudan, Myanmar, Syria, DRCongo, Haiti, Nigeria, Yemen, the Sahel and elsewhere, innocent people are dying in the name of someone else's beliefs and greed.

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.

When you consider Greenland’s entire population is only 56,500, this is a staggering and historic turnout.

Thousands seen here marching to protest at the US Consulate on the island.

An entire nation united in defiance against a foreign adversary.

In 1916, the US was worried that Germany might take control of the Danish West Indies to use as a submarine base. So, Denmark sold the Danish West Indies to the USA, with the colony becoming the US Virgin Islands. In exchange, the USA acknowledged Denmark's complete sovereignty over Greenland.

Keir Starmer did everything he could to be US poodle and his strategy has ended in total humiliation. Both him and Farage are puppets of a hostile foreign nation.

It's obvious that if someone is a bully - you don't just keep appeasing them.

Disastrous strategy by Labour.

More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.

They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

What the EU can do: invoke the Anti-Coercion Instrument (2023).

It was designed so the EU could respond and seek reparations for situations where a third country pressures the EU into policy choices by threatening or applying trade and investment measures.

Won't be spoken about enough. Trump's government's changes to scientific research and data collection programs are now literally killing people, as well as costing money for losses that could be mitigated with the right warnings/preparedness.
