Exceptional from Zack Polanski on a 1% wealth tax and aligning CGT on earned income #C4News The Greens are proposing what Labour should have rolled out when they came into power in 2024 I'm pro wealth, pro innovation, pro entrepreneurialism, pro innovation, but I'm also pro

Great image by Banksy, capturing so well the state's repression of protest.

Waking up to over 2k followers this morning feels incredible, especially as we were at just 50 a week ago. We’re truly overwhelmed by the support we’ve received, particularly here in #Epping. We’ll keep working to heal our town and bring our community back together.

Powerful moment in Falkirk as women anti racists form solidarity wall to protect refugees in the Cladhan hotel and face the far right. The racists, including fascists from Patriotic Alternative, show their true colours with mostly men shouting use and making more sexual threats.

People say "we can't have an honest debate about race in this country". OK. Let's have one. Lucy Connolly's a self-confessed racist. Now, if that doesn't bother you, fine. If she's still a hero to you, fine. But don't gaslight us all, and pretend she isn't a racist, when she is.

Very moving to see so many people ready to be arrested in London today because they oppose genocide and oppose draconian laws against protest. @DefendourJuries @PSCupdates

I see Emma Reynolds @EmmaforWycombe is the new minister for the environment & rural affairs. I can see she was previously City Minister and has worked as a lobbyist for the financial sector. I can't find anything at all about her interest in nature, environment, biodiversity...

More than 90 percent of family reunion visas go to women and children. And they say that clamping down on migration will help women?!

Now that @ZackPolanski is the leader of a party with the same amount of MPs as Reform UK, but more councillors, he should get as much media coverage. RT if you agree!

On appearance alone, it's really interesting to have a party led by a gay Jewish londoner, a northern working class Muslim, and a middle class home counties feminist. Now that's a winning coalition.

This is sickening. Everyone who has expressed any sympathy with Reform, any sympathy with the anti-asylum protesters, needs to be speaking up against this normalisation of racism. It's just a cascade of hate.
Sickening footage from Nuneaton, where a Sky interview with a local businessman was disrupted by racists hurling abuse. Another local said, "Warwickshire Council Council has gone to Reform... It's given certain people a licence to be aggressive & racist." Via @Shamaan_SkyNews.

I see a massive outcry here about the arrest of Graham Linehan. Fair enough, it seems absurd and authoritarian. I'm not seeing so much of an outcry about the arrests today of Tim Crosland and Paddy Friend of Defend Our Juries. These arrests are also absurd and authoritarian.

I wrote about the 10th anniversary of the tragic death of Aylan Kurdi for @Independent We saw an outpouring of empathy for refugees in those years. Now, we are seeing a rise in hate. We need to hold on to shared humanity in an ever more divided world. https://t.co/6eZDshxWDV

Ten years ago, the image of the lifeless body of two-year-old Alan Kurdi washed up on the shores of Turkey broke our hearts. It also broke open a surge of empathy which we should remember today,...

⛔️ The far-right are whipping up hostility to asylum seekers and mainstream politicians are only joining in. We need to take a stand to defend the rights of people fleeing war and persecution. Join us on 13th September. #StandUpToRacism #NoRacismNoFascism

Last night’s earthquake in Afghanistan hit women and young girls hardest. Sources tell me they are injured and in urgent need, but aid is limited due to the lack of female doctors and nurses. Taliban restrictions on women’s & girls education & work make the situation even worse.

This is utterly deplorable! What kind of parents TEACH their kids to be racists?! Back at school this week and what will this bring to a a multicultural classroom? If this isn't radicalisation what is? I feel soo sorry for the kids.
