Reform's candidate being this bad has certainly helped Burnham too.

“I’ve got nothing but respect for women… I’ve said things years ago that I wouldn’t say now”

Reform UK’s Robert Kenyon says he “won’t accept” being labelled as “sexist”, but admits he “made mistakes” with comments he made “15 years ago” that have been “dragged up”

In Makerfield constituency, it's looking like voters are tactically rallying around Burnham to beat Reform & Restore.

I think this would have happened regardless of how big a campaign Greens launched there, the constituency was carefully chosen by Labour for this reason.

[Aaron Bastani @AaronBastani]

Would certainly explain a lot of recent ‘friendly fire’ in Makerfield on the right…

If Burnham has squeezed the Lib Dem and Green vote that much hard not to think he wins handsomely.

Long way to go!

The UK is in decline.

It's time to tax the super rich.

Bristol (North Eest) deserves better than Mandelson mate Darren Jones MP.

Wow, the party of Peter Mandelson, AKA Shameful Labour, keeps getting worse.

[Sky News @SkyNews]

Senior Labour minister apologises for supporting Mandelson.

One of Sir Keir Starmer's closest allies told Peter Mandelson he was "so sorry" that he had been sacked over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, new messages reveal.

[🌿 The Green Progressive 🌿 @greenprogressve]

Labour is the party of Peter Mandelson, not the party of working (class) people

Emily Thornberry is truly Shameful Labour.

[Hamza Yusuf @Hamza_a96]

Emily Thornberry has today said the government has let down the Palestinian people, and allowed Israel to act with impunity.

The audacity.

Here she is in October 2023 refusing to condemn Israel cutting off power and supplies to Gaza.

Don’t let these people rewrite history.

[🌿 The Green Progressive 🌿 @greenprogressve]

Farage has plenty of time to provoke culture wars but no time to do his actual job

[The Green Party @TheGreenParty]

Never on the team sheet.

Farage has missed 77 consecutive Parliamentary votes - failing to inform constituents why he hasn't shown up to vote throughout the course of April and May.

Where is Farage?

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

[Tribune @tribunemagazine]

The decision to ban Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from the UK marks further escalation in the clampdown on critics of Israel. https://t.co/rSOCCcZfRn

He can promote Labour’s Friends of Nonces,
He can fail to enact promised change
He can lose 1500 council seats 😄

The members of the "Party of Peter Mandelson" does not and cannot understand the concept of solidarity.

Down with the Neoliberals

[Stella Tsantekidou @Stsantek]

Sorry but what’s the point of this response? I disagree with the instinctive left reflex being pulling out of things. SXSW have no power over the home office. They are not going to go into millions of debt to get one up the British goverment. The event obviously had to go ahead. What’s the point of it having one less left-wing voice?

A statement from the President, Arwa Elrayess:

Respect

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

I pulled out of SXSW London, and I hope other speakers and chairs do too.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Banning Cenk Uyghur and Hasan Piker from entering the UK is an absurd and cowardly decision from an increasingly authoritarian government.

Let us call this what it is: an attack on the freedom to criticise Israel, as well as the UK government’s own complicity in genocide.

[🌿 The Green Progressive 🌿 @greenprogressve]

Great thread.
Labour government has totally destroyed its reputation now, progressives won’t forget

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

I was supposed to chair the @hasanthehun discussion at SXSW this week, who's been banned from entering the UK by Shabana Mahmood. First of all, @sxsw must facilitate a way for Hasan and Cenk to contribute remotely, as a bare minimum refusal to comply with government censorship.
