             If the Greens really were to replace Labour, this is how the early build-up might feel. Some thoughts for @LRB on the new left gathering around @ZackPolanski, the contingent nature of green parties, and why this surge confounds commentators on left and right. Full piece below.

             Starmer’s Labour is absolutely toxic. I don’t think there’s any precedent for so many councillors quitting a party out of sheer disgust at the behaviour of its leadership.

             As I wrote yesterday we are going to see so much of this before next May, and after too. Councillors will leave Starmer’s Labour in LARGE numbers, not least because any criticism generally means you’re blocked from re-standing.  https://t.co/I14ZfEcb8C
