Growth that kills its host isn’t growth. It’s cancer with good PR.

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter the dire threat of a Reform UK government elected on a minority of the vote
Greens suggest they will properly contest byelection in blow to Burnham
Statement follows speculation party would not field candidate in Makerfield or barely fight seat

What horrifies me most about this is that the UK government in 2029 may have only 25% of the vote. 25% of the vote can win a majority in FPTP. A reasonable system would produce a broad left coalition, there's a majority there. Instead we will get Reform. We NEED proportional representation.
Why are BBCScotlandNews and STVNews refusing to publish the statement from Calmac? Is it because it doesn't fit in with their SNPbad agenda? 👇👇👇

REPORTER: The world saw your ship sunk in the Indian Ocean. What can Iran do now? IRAN FM 🇮🇷: It was a training ship invited by the Indian Navy, guests of India, unarmed and returning home. U.S. TORPEDOED IT. ATTACKING AN UNARMED SHIP IS A WAR CRIME. #cdnpoli
Lib Dem leader Edward Davey calls for a national investigation into Russian political interference in British politics: "Given Reform won't, he must. So will he know launch a national investigation into Russian infiltration into our politics?" Starmer: "Reform is riddled with pro-Putin propaganda"
An investigation into Russian interference in our politics is long overdue. And we all know who should be questioned first.
THIS GOVERNMENT HAS MADE THE MET POLICE LOOK STUPID. How good would it be if the Met followed the Milan example on today’s march? If that’s a step too far, perhaps they could just not arrest anybody? The message this would send to the government would be huge. #londonstandswithpalestine

Heroes. Every single one of them. Keir Starmer, Yvette Cooper, David Lammy — and the rest of this Labour government enabling genocide — aren’t fit to lace their boots.
With what he gets paid, We could sort out many issues that affect society's ills today. #NeverMyGreedyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotScotlandsKing
UK has anaemic growth & spiralling debt. Meanwhile, #OBR says #Brexit cost 4% of GDP. So both #consecutive & #Labour budget hawks want to ignore lost 4% of GDP & argue about welfare state cuts or more taxes? So, no option 3 of returning to EU SM/CU? #r4today
When you respond to the problem of the rise of the far right by copying them, you become the far right, you become part of the problem. Starmer is a disgrace to the history and traditions of the Labour party.
Labour has a whopping great majority and four years left to turn this country around. They should be setting the agenda, not chasing about trying to placate voters of a party with five MPs who will never vote for them anyway. It's not only disappointing... it's embarrassing

LIBERTY DEFEATS GOVERNMENT APPEAL AS COURT RULES ANTI-PROTEST LAWS ARE UNLAWFUL The government must now scrap these unlawful regulations before anyone else is wrongly arrested for protesting for simply standing up and making themselves heard on issues they care about
🚨BREAKING @libertyhq.bsky.social HAS WON ITS CASE TO #DefendDemocracy! The Court of Appeal has ruled anti-protest laws which completely ignored will of Parliament are UNLAWFUL Today’s judgement sends a powerful message to the government. It must now do the right thing youtu.be/ZZxEUkEU5Lc?...
