It's official. This dying, dangerous, divisive Government has finally admitted defeat & named the date. Now’s our chance to kick them out! Labour on course for landslide - making it even more vital to elect Green MPs to hold them to account & ensure fair future for all

The really telling line in the Mercer email is about spads rejecting his calls for veterans to use ID at polling stations because it would “open the floodgates” to students using their cards too. Basically a tacit admission of a voter suppression strategy

Remember when people said that not allowing student ID to vote felt like deliberate voter suppression?

It was deliberate voter suppression.

For the last 14 years as an NHS doctor, I have watched this party, these governments, savage the NHS into a crumbling shell of a once great institution. Deliberate, calculated, shameless destruction.

Only one thing to say. Please, if you still want an NHS, do not vote Tory.

This is where you can register for voter ID.

Don't assume you can just walk up and vote. The Tories have made it as difficult as possible, and it might take time for your ID to be processed.

Start now. Don't let somebody else rob you of your voice.

Another day, another solar farm rant in the Telegraph

A proper full house of anti-solar farm talking points that fall over under the slightest bit of interrogation

Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, on his former boss: “The depth of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. …He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life.”

🧵Anatomy of a Tory political cover-up

On 13 May, Rishi Sunak gave a v long, important speech about Britain's security to a Policy Exchange audience.

My state’s Republicans have lost the plot.

The bill has passed the rules committee—a bill making it illegal to wear a mask (with exemptions for groups like the KKK & Proud Boys).

You’re immune compromised & you’d prefer to wear a mask while at Walmart? That’s a crime.

Your regular reminder that solar farms take up (a lot) less of the UK than golf courses

I think this is something special: A rare document of an artist at work 117 years ago! I have enhanced for you this wonderful autochrome by photographer Antonin Personnaz, which captures the moment when the French impressionist painter Armand Guillaumin painted his oil-on-canvas

Long story short Esther McVey and her husband both rent a flat each in London at cost to the taxpayer of more than £3,200 a month, £250,000 in total.

This is despite them owning a flat in London which they rent out.

Britain, take a bow. Nobody does money laundering like you. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

In most U.S. K-12 public schools, the vaccine requirements are set by state legislatures. This practice has kept down dangerous childhood illnesses such as measles, pertussis, polio. Mr. Trump & RFK’s dangerous antivaccine rhetoric could prompt some states to remove requirements
