Don't we all.

Tesla boss Elon Musk wants to overthrow UK govt. Big pharma wants the NHS to pay higher drugs prices or else. Banks warn govt not to levy higher taxes on them, cut worker wages they say. People bear cost of corporate pollution, abuses. Choice - Curb corporate power and slavery or democracy.

To stop Reform in their tracks and challenge this failing Labour government - we need to grow our team of MPs. We're planning to have brilliant candidates across England & Wales. Never been involved with politics before? That's fine. Often even ideal! Check out below. 👇🏼

Starmer surrendered when he turned his back on disabled people that rely on the government for support. He surrended when he cut aid for the disabled. He surrendered the moment he called us an island of strangers. Real patriotism requires us to care. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Lewis Goodall, "This is Elon Musk, turning up at a far right rally, basically inciting violence in this country" "Most people in this country have no desire to go there, or look at it, or have any interest in that sort of rhetoric" "And yet, we are being pushed and pushed and pushed towards it"

Elon Musk is the most hated man in the UK, and one of the most hated in the USA. Do you hate Elon Musk? The like is right there 👇

I'll be speaking with George Monbiot, Mikaela Loach and Emma Pinchbeck at the Guardian Live this Tuesday evening as a Climate Assembly. Ticket link below. 👇🏼

It is foolish to say that everyone at the Unite Our Kingdom protest was far right. Some were just racists, others were simply thick twats, many were bored football hooligans and thousands more were gullible fuckwits.

The far-right mob in London paled into insignificance compared to our Remain marches. Especially the one in 2018. Between 700,000 and a million people turned out. The Labour front bench stayed away. They also ignored its message. But the voters who took part in it haven't disappeared. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

"Because if this is the best the Mail’s top political sketch writer can muster, then Polanski is clearly doing something right, and even Mail readers can smell the desperation." leftfootforward.org/2025/09/smea...

They're making me beam with pride x www.normalisland.co.uk/p/patriots-c...

"The Left is the party of murder... Violence is coming... So fight or Die" Elon Musk told 110,000 people that unless they physically attack left-wing people, they'll die, and Tommy Robinson backed him. Both of them need to be arrested. #UniteTheKingdom

Reform would have you believe they’re different from Tommy Robinson and the far right. They’re not. Reform is chock full of Robinson’s fascist fans and the v worst politicians are legitimising them. Anyone who genuinely cared about our country wouldn’t let their racist rhetoric take hold. (iPaper)

Observer today: what a letter

Zoe Gardiner, "The Labour Party left a vacuum over the summer allowing racism run riot on our streets.. I was expecting better" You're not the only one. I've seen snails move faster than Keir Starmer as PM and now Shabana Mahmood as Home Secretary

You use the Facts to beat the hate.

Owner of Twitter calls for violence and what sounded like an insurrection UK government: Let’s put some more money into ads on “X”

Sunday reminder - this weeks episode of @boldpolitics.bsky.social is with migration expert @zoegardner.bsky.social Check it out 👇🏼 youtu.be/NlXUf1XipTA?...

Over 100,000 far right protesters marched through the heart of London yesterday, and Keir Starmer said... NOTHING. Quite extraordinary.

It’s disappointing that we now use “illegal immigration” as a legitimate concern. UK law allows an asylum seeker to enter without legal paperwork. And they make up just 3%. We have always allowed a small number and nothing like other countries. But we processed them faster and allowed them to work.

The billionaires and their puppets.

Tiny Tommy’s idiots were out in force screaming about loving Britain while flogging it to Moscow for a bag of coke. Like the foreigners, criminals and scum that sold out their country for Putin as guest speakers. This isn’t pride, it’s radicalisation. 8pm. youtube.com/live/UWMiBs_...

RFK Jr says he has been friends with Charlie Kirk since 2001 when he first followed his podcasts. In 2001 Charlie Kirk was 7. What a joke place MAGA USA has become.

I remember when it was universally acknowledged that Tommy Robinson was a racist thug. Now he’s being encouraged by The Telegraph. Musk is inciting violence and amplifying him. Reform are saying they’d ’take back the judiciary’ and god knows what else. What’s happening to Britain?

In the sixth richest country on earth, no child should go hungry. Yet millions do - not because of scarcity, but because of political choices. Thank you @ianbyrnemp.bsky.social for inviting me to speak about universal free school meals at the launch of the Right to Food Commission.

UK Govt must change course. Increase purchasing power of the bottom 50%. Poorest 20% pay higher proportion of income in taxes than the richest 20%. WRONG At the very least abolish VAT on domestic fuel, reduce std rate of VAT, lift personal allowance by £1,000. Shift the cost to the rich.

Yesterday far right protestors tore up Palestinian flags, flags with Islamic scripture & gave speeches saying “that Islam is the real enemy, we have to get rid of Islam”. Yet nobody from govt is condemning this detail? Why not? Had it been about Christians or Jews what would have been the response?

An excellent question just posed by Adil Ray on insta - the speeches yesterday proclaiming ‘Islam is the problem’ in our society - the tearing up of Islamic scriptures and Palestine flags - if this had been any other religion would politicians not have been lining up to condemn?

He can fuck right off.

I don’t have a lot of time for petitions any more but this one has got to have legs. Because Musk is an ignorant, entitled, too-rich-to-care-about-the-harm-he-does arsehole. There are lines you don’t cross and he’s crossed them multiple times with NO GOV pushback So I’ve signed I hope you do too

More dahlias! Because one can never have enough. 🌱

Brexit wasn’t abstract, writes The Bear. It stripped out the NHS’s stabilisers – staff, medicines, safety nets – and left us running on fumes. The cost isn’t just GDP points. It’s lives.

20% of the UK is racist. 80% isn't. We just need anti-racist parties that are worth voting for and we will win.

Women against the far-right launch "Women dare to tread and to speak where the prime minister does not" northeastbylines.co.uk/news/politic...

Dr Ellen Kriesels has been suspended from her NHS job for simply holding a sign with the truth about Israel. She needs to be reinstated. Show them how much support she has.

CS Venkatakrishnan is Barclay’s CEO. His pay has doubled to £10,500,000 a year, but he thinks your wages need to be frozen. Look at him laughing at you.

You can't spell 'patriot' without a pee.

41% of renters in England & Wales, 4.5m people, had to ration energy. People skipping hot meals, wearing gloves inside, limiting heating. Energy companies made £514bn operating profit since 2020, also get subsidies, shareholders enriched, misery for people. End profiteering. Nationalize energy

Tomorrow is International Day of Democracy. When parties with just a third of the vote are winning big majorities our democracy is broken. MPs have a plan to fix it. @eastangliabylines.co.uk @stephenmcnair.bsky.social

In the last 48 hours Elon Musk has incited violence against the Democrats in the USA and violence in the UK to overthrow the Government. He doesn't realize how ridiculous it makes him look.

Europe’s summer of extreme weather caused €43bn loss. Damage from heat, drought, flooding, crop failures will accelerate. Climate change is global. No country can escape. Trump/Farage deny the obvious and dance to the tunes of fossil fuel companies.

This is what a Labour Goverment does! #Labour #KeirStarmer

Javier Bardem "I cannot work with anyone who justifies or supports Genocide." Good man, this should be everybody's attitude. Never again. For everyone.

The Labour leadership is tacitly accepting, and reflecting, Farage’s perverted notion of patriotism | Richard Haviland Via @bylines.scot

Far right trying to pretend there were three million people at their Racist Pride march yesterday using AI photoshopped images of PARIS is sending me 😂😂😂😂😂

In 2024-25 HMRC wrote-off £7.2bn of tax. Main reason is UK insolvency law. Since 2003, HMRC has been an unsecured creditor for taxes owed by companies such as corporation and capital gains tax. Billions lost. Public purse pays subsidies, employment & other benefits. Reinstate Crown preference.

The Police are now searching for this idiot. Do you know this incredibly stupid man?

Good news you may have missed: Tories left our schools & hospitals crumbling & unsafe. Labour is rebuilding Britain from the ground up by removing dangerous RAAC in our public spaces NHS waiting lists have fallen month on month with Labour & 5 million extra appointments delivered since July 2024

When YouGov asked voters to rank parties: Lib Dems were in 80% of voters’ top 3. Reform came fifth for 50%. But, under FPTP, Reform could still win a majority. This is not democracy. Stephen McNair reports

Keep reading about people protesting but they don’t mean wrong. Why join Robinson’s protest who thinks Islam is a threat and is seen as far right. If I joined a protest by the likes of ‘Abu Hamza’ who thought Christianity was a threat, but I was there because I’m unhappy with Starmer, is that ok?

About that "skills shortage"? "Employers’ annual spending on training for each member of staff has fallen by 28% in real terms since 2005, to £1,530, a level less than half the EU average." www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Let’s not give up hope on President Trump as a peacemaker.☮️ He stopped the Azerbaijan & Albania war that had raged on for 22 years. You know that war. It’s the one Lee Anderson served bravely in whilst fighting in The Somme.💪

Ramen tonight, perfect for a cosy Sunday evening. 🍜

This is what REFORM want. A lawless country where the mob rule. Never mind democracy they want simple mob law. No one will be safe from the mob. It’s a dystopian future of rampaging thuggery.

President Trump, "Smart people don't like me" There's a reason for that...

Hey Musk, If it's allowed that an American citizen like you can use X to call for the overthrow of the British government, then you won't object if I, a Dutch citizen, use X to call for the overthrow of the Trump administration, because you're a free speech absolutist. Or did I misunderstand you?

Farage faces fresh questions over his tax affairs as he changed his story not once but twice over the purchase of his luxury constituency home. It was revealed last weekend that it was Farage’s partner Laure Ferrari who bought a property in his Clacton constituency. (1/7)

Donald Trump has said "Smart people don't like me." That's because they know you are lying and how fucking stupid you are.

Is a maximum pay cap the answer to inequality in the UK? youtu.be/GKevsgaMxAQ?... CEO pay in the UK is out of control. The median FTSE 100 boss now takes home £4.5 million a year – while millions struggle to live on the minimum wage. If we can set a minimum wage, why not a maximum pay cap?

"It's not outside interference designed to ruin the uk, it's grass roots British concerns about boats. Anyway shush, here's a South African, illegal US immigrant billionaire who doesn't pay much tax to tell us what to do."

If you think Donald Trump and his cabal are going to allow a fair election to get rid of them. You need to wake up. Doesn't matter how many vote against him he will win. You are already a Fascist Dictatorship.

Don't worry Farage, we haven't forgotten this like you think we have. Time to come clean perhaps? #ukpolitics

I'll only ask Elon Musk one question. If Adolf Hitler is on the Left, why were you doing his salute?

So how did she afford to pay for the house then? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Farage would sell out the UK & risk hundreds of thousands of good British jobs. He has called for the US to slap trade sanctions on the UK, which could put more than 300,000 jobs at risk, including 176,000 in the UK’s industrial heartlands. #NeverVoteReform #NeverFarage

open.substack.com/pub/theleadu... This is urgently required.

She has just defined herself as evil, and Elon Musk has agreed. 🤣

Labour MPs today call for new legislation to extend a right of responsible access to more English landscapes, and for the right to swim and wild camp to be enshrined in law @righttoroam.bsky.social inputted to this new report from the APPG for access to nature: www.theguardian.com/environment/...

26 officers injured by 150k raging fascists—incited by far-right grifter Tommy Robinson & his #NRx billionaire paymaster, SA/US #oligarch #ElonMusk. Will Labour PM #KeirStarmer enforce the #law, or will we see two-tier policing with a free pass for billionaire-backed violence? The world is watching.

Car seats being sold online in UK that risk lives of children, Which? finds. In pursuit of profits, businesses ignore laws/safety. They object to consumer rights. The so-called 'red tape' is someone's life. Left to itself capitalism devours all. Say NO to profits before people.

Finally, he took his sweet time to say something

🇬🇮 Gibraltar escapes Brexit trap 🎉🙌 Gib didn’t fall for Brexit (96% boted Remain) bc it had already lived through Brexit isolation. When Spain 🇪🇸 shut the border in 1970s–80s, Gibraltarians were cut off for 16 years. Families divided, goods airlifted, economy strangled. 1/2 👇

Imagine being a Native New Zealand Maori who goes to Britain who killed his people, and gets paid by Israel who are killing the Palestinians. All to tell people they have to be Christian. The most soldout man on Earth, I hope Israel paid him a lot. I doubt it.

MAGA Water Make America Great Again. *Bottled in Mexico.

The USA is trying to pass a law so they can revoke your US Citizenship if you criticise Israel. This should absolutely disgust every American.

36 hours after he did…zero from Starmer and co apart fro an astonishingly stupid, inept “Free speech is alive and well” from Labour’s Peter Kyle, Free speech is. But it is sick and needs urgent treatment. Labour offering nothing

Wonderful to be at BBC CWR’s Make a Difference Awards this afternoon at the @belgradetheatre.bsky.social. It was truly inspiring to see the incredible work people are doing in our communities across Coventry and Warwickshire. Huge congratulations to all the winners! 👏🏽

Hell is empty and the devils are here.

Conor McGregor can't stand he needed 20 Irish MP's to nominate him. He got 0, nobody, diddly squat, he hasn't dropped out. He has been thrown out.

This is a longtime policy of @greenparty.org.uk: please sign and share the petition! Tackle #Inequality and rein in #FatCatPay

People say lets not overuse the word Nazi. But if you are Israel and you are Genociding a Race of people to steal their land. Then a Nazi is what you are.

Would the EU really welcome the UK back? Campaigners Leeds for Europe canvassed on the streets of Lille and found warm feelings toward the UK, despite EU uncertainty By Peter Packham @yorkshirebylines.co.uk

The Left needs to tone down political violence" The right:

We call on the Home Secretary to act following Musk's vile words and hatred stirring at the 'Unite The Kingdom' rally. Sign our petition now and get Elon Musk banned open.substack.com/pub/theleadu...

These two nations have invaded, oppressed, colonised or controlled almost every single country on the planet. Don't ignore that fact.

Israel are trying to smear Greta Thunberg as Hamas funded. They are getting really scared and creating an excuse for the excessive violence they are planning.

So just to recap - elderly people in wheelchairs holding signs = National emergency. 110k people in central London at the behest of a far right activist with a history of racism and being encouraged to commit violence by one of the world’s richest and most influential men = totally chill.

Grok is going to be like "Adolf Hitler was a raging radical leftie, the Left is the Party of Gas Chambers." Then Elon is going to say, no one is using Grok any more please come back and use it!!!

Hannah Einbinder who won an Emmy for Supporting Actress In A Comedy Series for Hacks at the 77th Emmy Awards explains why she ended her acceptance speech with 'Free Palestine' "I feel like it is my obligation as a Jewish person to distinguish Jews from the state of Israel"

Musk vs facts…..

Eurovision is trying to compromise and allow Israel to compete without using their name or flag. But we don't want Israel in, do we?

The truth is we are now leaving Capitalism behind, nevermind Democracy. Donald Trump's fascist moves in the USA mean that wealth is relevatively irrelevant he can and will simply squeeze you out with force. We are already in WW3, whether you want to admit it or not.

Capitalism has produced the horrible world we live in. People are a blank canvas, treat them with love, respect and kindness and that is what they will spread. In our world we demand everyone produces profit, demonise everyone who is different, and value only wealth.

Look at these Far Right MAGA's in the USA wearing Far Left Swastika's. They must not have got the memo from Elon!
