Making the case for wealth taxes on @SkyNewsPolitics just now. Rumours that Chancellor might seek yet more spending cuts are horrifying - public services are already on their knees & top 50 richest families in UK now hold more wealth than the poorest half of the population - over 34 million people.

In the month since I was elected leader of the Green Party, we have gained a new member equivalent of every single minute. 24/7.

We're all smiling. But we've also got a big job to do.

Let's make hope normal again.

Visibly enthusiastic, incredibly articulate and with a winning smile that never left his face, Zack seemed entirely at home

Why is @greenparty.org.uk gaining so many members with @zackpolanski.bsky.social as leader?

"Protecting myself and my family" is the number one issue voters vote on. (Kantar)

Who is going to protect your family? Billionaire-funded Putin-lover Farage?
Or Zack?

Nuff said

#OlegVoloshyn's wife is #NadiaBorodi, also known as #NadiaSass. Recent news reports have connected her to a #bribery scandal involving her husband and former #BrexitParty MEPs #NathanGill and #NigelFarage

@zackpolanski.bsky.social
@bladeofthes.bsky.social

Farage is trying to distance himself from Voloshyn who has been fingered in the bribery of Brexit Party MEPs

So it now appears the woman Farage and Gill were so close to has a direct link not only to Putin’s “Man in Ukraine” Medvedchuk, but his predecessor as President, Medvedev

These are top Russian agents.

Nigel Farage has finally admitted to it.

But now there's lots more questions especially considering Rupert Lowes intervention....

leftfootforward.org/2025/10/nige...

Nigel Farage finally admits to knowing Nathan Gill after senior Reform figure repeatedly claimed he didn’t

Farage has admitted he knew Gill for 'a very long time' but claims he didn't know anything about his pro-Russia activities...

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is panicking the #LibDems

They worry they have no passion 🥴

You and @andyburnham.bsky.social need to sit Keir down and explain how the country works. He is too busy trying to OutReform Farage. Tell him to look around or oust him.

VoteGreen29 @votegreen29.bsky.social · 4d

Is this a matter for MI5 or MI6?
Russian political interference

@nujofficial.bsky.social journalists need to dig further into this story. Treachery is not a good look for #Reform politicians

Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. It’s become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.

SHOCK POLL:
NIGEL FARAGE WILL BE PM TOMORROW
IN an amazing poll conducted
by The Pointless Polling Company, it was revealed that voters' intentions
may well change over the next three and a half years and at present it's 100 percent impossible to guess what the next government might look like.
However, 99 percent of journalists
agree that it would be much more fun if we had an election tomorrow and everybody resigned and everything was chaos and Farage had a go at being PM, just for the hell of it, because it was so much fun when
Brexit happened and then the government kept falling every five minutes and we could write endless pieces about (cont. p94)
