Losing the battle with entropy. She/They
Thought this was a great interview. Zack, in a move almost unheard of amongst British politicians, managed to sound like a sensible, normal, intelligent person! And amazing for the Greens to get that "big political interview" slot on the PM show the day after the budget!
Radio 4 PM: “Green Party leader Zack Polanski gives us his view on the budget - and his plans for the future.”

Pretty much decided I'm voting Green next election unless Labour pulls something amazing out of the bag to win me back! Was waiting to see how @zackpolanski.bsky.social panned out, so far am impressed. It's a shame because I think my local MP is a decent bloke but I just can't with Labour anymore.

The #paracetamol/ #tylenol #autism thing #Trump announced is glaring proof they can't pin autism on #vaccines.
#RFKJr has the power of the entire Dept of Health yet couldn't find evidence for autism-vax link, so resorted to blaming something else to meet his Sept goal to "find the cause of autism".

Hello from the #UK, land of North Korea-esque suppression of #freespeech, unlike that of glorious leader #Trump. Funny then that shortly before Trump said networks giving him "bad publicity" should lose their licence, one of our biggest broadcasters aired a 5 hour documentary debunking Trump's lies.

Feeling schadenfreude at a death or pointing out that the deceased was a truly awful person doesn't mean you think they "deserve" to die. I'll speak ill of the dead but oppose the death penalty. The world is better without bad people in it, but I don't think that makes it morally right to kill them.

I don't understand why people are not pushing harder for Israel to allow journalists into Gaza. Israeli representatives keep claiming everything is Hamas propaganda, if they're so sure they're right why won't they let outside observers in?

Are we going to see any condemnation for the continuing use of “death to Arabs” across Israel? Recently chanted by Israelis on Jerusalem Day in Muslim neighbourhoods. The govt is accused of not doing enough to stop it. Do our govt and others condemn that? Or even bothered to look that way?

Many of those standing up for the people of Gaza would have been people who stood up for Jewish refugees in the 1930s because the reason they stand up is humanitarianism, religion and ethnicity play no part, it is the concept that EVERY child’s life has the same value

Well thank fuck for that. #Labour now doing what they always should have done with reform to #PIP: actually wait until the review of #DisabilityBenefits has been completed before making such huge changes. Too little too late though. #BenefitReforms #Disability #DisabilitySky #TakingThePIP

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and *that* is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

Labour's idea of 'free speech' is freedom to make trans people feel unsafe on campus, but not the freedom to criticise Israel.
