Bonkers Update this week, fake flashbacks to events that never happened, fakeout guests, deliberately bad improv #snluk
James Whitaker
@jwhitaker1.bsky.social
Green party activist, environmental and social justice, ecosocialist, republican and radical democracy
Honestly best episode yet, James announcing that "maybe today is one of those days where we don't have to do anything", luring people into the fun room and trying to be as boring as possible #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors #TraitorsUK
Binge watched Poker Face over the last few days, gutted that there's no more as it's everything I want from a show, mystery, murder, twists, fun characters, flashbacks, a cool car, a cast with charisma to spare, a retro style...
Three jokes you’d probably never hear on SNL US. Ania Magliano tonight showed just how much further Saturday Night Live UK can go after dark.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, that's it, I'm not gonna lie, I'm fucked" lmao astonishingly unhinged episode #snluk
Love how paranoid everyone is getting; something about Jerry calling James "James A" is really getting me. Hannah and James are basically playing as faithful, Maya having to goad them into doing anything #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors #TraitorsUK
Bella upset, Julie calling herself power mad, James wanting Blunt dead because he doesn't like people confusing them, Richard E Grant forgetting he was on Off Menu in front of Ed Gamble #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors #TraitorsUK
Captain Blunty taking charge. Oh Myha'la has sacrificed herself. Ross living in medieval times, Myha'la slowly realising she's under fire, Rob trying the say yes to everything strategy, Hannah using faithful tactics #TheTraitors #TraitorsUK #CelebrityTraitors
"You're the most suspicious man I've met in my entire life." Aww, Bash and Bella are loving it. Oooh, Hannah recruitment #TheTraitors #CelebrityTraitors #TraitorsUK
Agree with this from Tristan; the lesson cannot be burn everything down or scrap internal democracy, it has to be about actual educating and organising and not treating conference like an afterthought
Tristan Grayford@tristangrayford.scot · 2w agoA single vote indicates that an entryist faction was able to take advantage of a party's low conference turnouts for its own benefit and *far* too many people have concluded the only possible response is either burning down the party completely or entirely doing away with party democracy.
Deeply frustrated by all this, I worry that it's split the party for no good reason, and it's time we could have spent dealing with more practical issues
Spyro the Antifascist Dragon@antifaspyro.bsky.social · 2w agoResult for Zionism is Racism: FOR - 1022 AGAINST - 813 SPOILED - 10 Motion passes.
Green Party just fast-tracked 25 motions, including: E30 - An independent review of gender-affirming healthcare for children and young people E14 - Solidarity with Sudan E29 - Rebuilding the fire and rescue service E35 - A gender-inclusive campaign against domestic and sexual abuse.
Ross looked like his life was flashing before his eyes; Hannah fuming, getting screwed over by sheer fluke, Richard struggling to defend himself #celebritytraitors #thetraitors #traitorsuk
Incredible first episode, Richard E Grant is happier than anyone ever has been #celebritytraitors #thetraitors
Absolutely deranged #snluk episode, Harry Kane down the sewers, wax museum, jorts, house on fire, that Weekend Update, then Freddie Meredith torturing himself for our amusement

Bit of a mixed bag that episode, but that final sketch was one of the most specific things they've ever done #snluk
All of Ed Sheeran’s opening acts and his touring band have dropped out of the remaining dates of his ‘Loop’ tour in solidarity with Palestine and Macklemore.
The levels of clownery going on here are honestly unmatched
Solid episode, not the best but Fouracres fantastic throughout, CMAT brilliant, King Kong sketch worth it just for the ludicrous "twas bisexuality killed the beast" punchline #snluk

What with this and repeated transphobia, Webb really is awful
Patrick Andelic@pkandelic.bsky.social · last mo.I went back to listen to it and it’s genuinely quite shocking.
Yeah, I can't see this being anything other than a badge of honour, given everything
Zack Polanski@zackpolanski.bsky.social · last mo.Our Green MPs have consistently spoken out and voted on the right side of history. Standing up against ethnic cleansing, occupation and genocide, as all MPs should be doing. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...
#snluk adding an extra cast member last minute is fascinating, wonder what happened there
I knew today was going to be big. I didn’t know we’d have so many volunteers that we’d leaflet the ENTIRE constituency in just two hours (!!) - 80,000 leaflets. And we got to speak to so many people on their doorsteps. This is how we win this campaign. Thank you, everyone. 🙏🏽
Cannot stand Mahmood; we need to be pushing back against this harder
Elizabeth Taylor@elizabethtaylor47.bsky.social · last mo.This is true Burnhamism in action: a vibesy TikTok ‘Q&A’ by the Home Sec about all she is doing to crush The Small Boats
It's always gold whenever Sooz does Nads lmao
Sooz Kempner@soozuk.bsky.social · last mo.Nadine Dorries interviewed by Krishnan Guru-Murthy on Channel 4 last night at Reform Party Conference. Nigel Farage is absolutely fine and actually laughing, not even worried, definitely. Original can be viewed here, it's quite a watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Et3...
