⚠️ "First Past the Post is not sustainable; not for Labour, and not for the country. We must modernise Westminster and launch a National Commission on Electoral Reform." 🌹 Excellent article for @thefabians by @steveracemp #Labour4PR https://t.co/tRyunnZKBV

Wow. That is some fall….

Instead of making the rich pay their fair share of tax, under neoliberal governments since 1979 (Labour and Tory), the ever-growing public services funding gap has been filled by flogging off public assets- school playing fields, council-owned land and facilities, now allotments

He cannot cope with people who disagree with him.

LABOUR & TORIES FACE EXTINCTION-LEVEL EVENT? New poll predicts an absolute mullering for the two main parties LAB down to just 66 seats (-345), driven back to cities CONS on a mere 38 seats (-83), pushed to provinces REF on 374 seats (+369) Corbyn on 14 seats

The images of Israeli hostages are appalling and expose the barbarity of Hamas. All hostages must be released immediately and unconditionally. Hamas must disarm and end its rule in Gaza. At the same time, large-scale humanitarian aid must be allowed to reach those in need.

Russia, China, Iran is already a considerable Eurasian block. Now Trump wants to add…India?!

In the past, the British public were reluctant to change the voting system. This has shifted dramatically. Now 60% of people want change, including supporters of all major parties. It's time for PR. Watch our event with John Curtice & @UnlockDemocracy: https://t.co/YYYhcZoyIV

This is the one thing I really thought they’d get right, and we don’t even get that much.

@robertcp @NicholasTyrone Sure, I get that. Only a contrarian would dismiss Reform’s electoral chances at the next GE with current polling. Just because it would be unprecedented doesn’t mean it couldn’t happen.

@NicholasTyrone Yes, they *could* win. In the same way that Milliband, Hague and Corbyn *could* have won Let’s see where they are in 3 years eh?

@NicholasTyrone Yes it's curious my contacts who are still in the Tory Party cannot accept the change in political scene & don't yet take ReformUK Party challenge seriously. They mostly still strongly defend FPTP & believe it will prevent any insurgent Party from displacing UKs 2 mainstream ones

Read on here that Reform can't win the next general election because "Farage is Boris all over again but with a nasty streak". But Boris won a huge majority in 2019, so this doesn't work as an explanation. Guys, the polls are telling us Reform is going to win. Take it seriously.

Why should the Welsh Parliament serve England. Tells you everything you need to know about these ultra English nationalist reform types. The SENEDD exists to serve the people of Wales. Our nation! We are a proud and ancient nation and we exist to serve nobody but ourselves!

The Met are having to fact check statements made by highly influential Tory MPs who appear on the BBC and write for newspapers. We’ll see a lot more of this as the Tories tend to 0 seats.
