The Green Party of England & Wales @greenparty.org.uk · 1d

Reform UK want to take public spending down to 35% of GDP — that’s a £275 billion cut, the equivalent of shutting down the NHS.

The Green Party knows the only way to rebuild our communities is by investing in our public services, not running them down and flogging them off to the private sector.

Israel is still holding thousands of living hostages, many for far longer than 2 years - men, women & children abducted & held without trial. Why are the Palestinians invisible here? What is it about Palestinians that makes them unworthy of inclusion in your concept of living hostages?

How much did we get each year from the European Union Objective One funding before a majority here in Cornwall voted to leave? No surprise at all that the Brownshirts Broadcasting Corporation fails to make the least mention of all those millions we have lost due to utter stupidity.

I need some help from a proficient Cornish language speaker please! I paint landscapes & when my work is based on my homeland I always use the Cornish language as titles. The trouble is I don't speak it. Literal translations from English don't always work poetically so a little conversation 1/2

A Green government would proscribe the Israel Defense Forces as a terrorist organisation.

The forces currently actioning war crimes and genocide upon the people of Gaza on behalf of the Israeli government.

This must not be allowed to continue.

The Labour Party are bought and paid for.

Lobbying, cash for access, vested interests. This is who they are.

It doesn't have to be this way.

3% more and this Labour Government need to worry more about the left - than the right.

Lower bills. Protect the NHS. Nationalise our public services.

This is how we start to turn our country around.

I hear you. I’ve taken the eco populist route and joined the Greens. Here’s hoping we can inverse-farage the Overton window leftwards and the Labour Party back to some semblance of decency. Four more years… let’s see.

And given Labour's local talent down here, the Enochian analogies don’t seem to some to be too far off the mark sadly: www.falmouthpacket.co.uk/news/2547084...

Labour councillor who retweeted 'far-right' posts did not breach code, report finds

The complainant claimed the councillor frequently retweeted Islamophobic and transphobic materials from far-right accounts.

Sure, I’m partial to your oeuvre. But it’s grim that we hold ourselves in Britain to such low standards, no? That our politics is so captured and so many are happy to just play along. Things is, I & pretty much all ex Labour voters I know will never vote for the party again. The centre hasn’t held.

Tongue in cheek there Alex, of course 😉. Seriously, though, do you honestly consider the Labour Party to be a left wing, socialist party any more? Do you really see it working to defend the interests of the working class? Are you saying the Overton window hasn’t been dragged firmly to the right?

Ruw 〓〓 @rudhek.com · 21d

Labour can in no way be considered on the left any longer. Your and others’ Overton windows maybe Enoching their way to a Nuremberg rally but any sane evaluation of today’s “Labour” party clearly shows it has not the least interest in those it was founded to serve.

What is it with the blue Labour press like the New Statesman and The Guardian and vile transphobia? Tatty bye to the Blairite wank mags. Jog on and do some genocide supporting why don’t you. Unfollowed.

People stop going out for walks, traditions like mushroom picking in autumn are dying out (an 80 year old was shot dead just 50 kms from my house picking mushroom in the woods). The hunters attitude is that of the gangster. Walk in our woods, it’s your fault if you’re hit. Vile, unbridled thuggery.
