First Caerphilly…

Then Gorton and Denton

Now Makerfield

Even with the press and billionaires firmly on your side, you lose

We don’t want your division, rage and riots

Hope that’s clear now 🇬🇧❤️✌🏽

Reform tried to stop us. The High Court denied them.

We’re going to court to hold Reform to account for not respecting voters’ data rights. But they’re going to resist all the way.

Will you help us as we move on to the next stage of our challenge?

Oh...oh...but...but Harborne didn't want anything in return for the £5m "gift" and there's simply NO CONNECTION between that and ..well THIS 👇

[Pippa Crerar @PippaCrerar]

EXCL: Nigel Farage has been trying to block Bank of England cryptocurrency plan that could be costly for billionaire bankrolling his party.

Reform UK leader has said Christopher Harborne wants nothing in exchange for millions donated to party and undeclared £5m personal gift to Farage revealed by Guardian.

But Farage used private meeting at Bank to urge governor to drop plans for state-run alternative to digital currency that has made his Thailand-based benefactor one of richest people in world.

Cracking tale from @tomburgis

Nigel Farage is breaking British company law.

Missed deadline to file confirmation statement with Companies House.
Failed to verify his identity, legal requirement.
Failure to comply is a criminal offence.

Low attendance in parliament, busy with 2nd jobs

Important report from @zeteouk but missing a key point.

It reveals Labour’s Lord Glasman met with AFD’s Maximilian Krah last week. Krah doesn’t just have Nazi views but a r’ship with Oleh Voloshyn, the Kremlin agent who bribed Reform leader, Nathan Gill

10 years ago my wife, the mum of our kids & the MP for Batley&Spen was killed by a far right extremist.

At anniversaries I try to be optimistic about the future. But not this time. In the ten years since she was killed we have gone backwards & I fear our democracy is now at risk

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

Listen to this absolutely haunting sound.

Putin’s attack on the Lavra must be condemned by leaders around the world. It’s also a wake-up call, Ukraine *is* the Lavra, it’s survived but only by facing off the utter barbarity of Putin’s regime

Blaming asylum seekers for homelessness? What about the 720,000 empty homes in England, and the 1,627,450 second homes in England alone.

Blaming asylum seekers for expensive food shops? What about the £3,100,000,000 profit Tesco made last year?

Blaming asylum seekers for expensive energy bills? What about the £438,000,000,000 made by just 20 energy companies in profit?

Blaming immigrants for not getting an NHS appointment? What about the 260,000+ migrant workers keeping the NHS going? And what about the 25% real term cut in NHS funding, think that could do it?

Blaming people on welfare for a lack of money to fund the NHS? What about the £36,000,000,000 tax gap due to avoidance and evasion by the elite?

It's time to realise it's not immigrants, asylum seekers or people on welfare causing you any harm, it's capitalism and the mega rich hoarding all the wealth.

Filton 4: Who Decides When Protest Becomes Terrorism?

The leading British lawyer who acted as solicitor in a landmark UK Supreme Court case on the definition of terrorism has a chilling warning about the draconian sentencing of pro-Palestine activists.

[Mike Ellis @MikeEllis132]

I wonder, would it be illegal to hold up 2 placards at a protest,
one saying "Support Palestine"
the other saying "Action now" ?
Just wondering.

Reform UK object to foreign nationals living in social housing. But not to foreign nationals buying their leader a house for a million quid.

Andy Burnham is a member of the Labour Friends of Israel, and so if elected as PM, will government policy still be guided by Israel?

[Jody McIntyre @jodymcintyre_]

This man is desperate to get the keys to No. 10.

But did you know about the secret connection between Andy Burnham and a weapons company complicit in air strikes in Gaza?

This is the scandal Burnham does NOT want voters to know about…🧵

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

3 of the 4 people didn’t attack the police officer and all of the 4 were cleared of violent intent. So the only disgrace here is the lie you’re telling to justify a clear miscarriage of justice & the use of anti-terror laws to justify your government’s complicity in a genocide.

Ryan Bridge has been filmed striking a female protestor in the face in Brighton. That single act destroys any claim Raise the Colours make about “protecting women and girls.” Please share this he cannot be allowed to get away with it. I hope she’s okay and has reported the assault to the police.

[Mike Ellis @MikeEllis132]

Government pays out £40b each year to those paid
SO LITTLE they are eligible to claim Universal Credit

£40b of tax payer's money going straight into the pockets of business!

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

She is lying. Brazenly. Israel has forced over a million people (a million!) from their homes, razed entire neighborhoods to the ground, told Christian villagers to not let Shia villagers stay in their villages, and killed multiple first-responders in double tap strikes.
