This is all horrific stuff, and I invite you to go back to 2018/19 and reread her columns, newspaper interviews and podcast appearances talking about it, and then decide who it sounds like it was, that had been doing all this.

"The Mail says military leaders are warning Britain is being left defenceless & Starmer & Reeves are putting welfare & net zero above defence priorities"

The UK is already the 5th highest military spender in the world (only the US, China, Russia and Germany spend more than us).

Reform won't back workers. They won't reverse anti-trade union laws. And they won't break up the broken electoral system.

For all of the talk of being anti-establishment, a Reform government would deliver nothing but division.

There’s no point appealing for an end to “division” in politics when you have made it very clear your pledge to “end the culture wars” meant “end them, by joining with the crackpot right to smash fuck out of various uppity minorities and the left”. *You are* the division, it is you whom is divisive.

Like I say, you cannot engage with any of these people in good faith. They are vexatious liars and bullshit artists, they don’t care what’s real and what they invented.

A founder of Raise the Colours, the flag-obsessed ‘patriot’ group, currently faces a murder charge.

RTC members were present at last night's Southampton protest, where the far right crassly sought to recruit over Nowak's murder.

One of the things turned up to 11 during the pandemic was the idea that being an utterly selfish and dangerous scumbag, willing to risk other people's lives for the slightest reason was acceptable.
I’m sure this is definitely fine

Reform took a £5m donation and they're trying to distract you. Farage is just another establishment stooge.

Like in Gorton & Denton - the only way to stop Reform on Thursday - Vote Green.

I just think it's pretty obvious Palantir should be nowhere near our NHS and that alone renders Labour unfit to lead this country.

Christian Nationalism is a divisive dead end.

Most people in Britain aren’t Christian in beliefs, practices, or identity.

The only basis for national identity in our country is shared values and institutions of our plural society.

Marina Purkiss points out that anti Muslim remarks are considered ok but if they were anti Jewish remarks there would be uproar

Point being, no form of discrimination is acceptable, and that it's dismissed because it's anti Muslim discrimination, that shows a shameful double standard in society

Ah yes, best to do nothing then since that's clearly going extremely well.
The problem with this Polanski speech is that the policies - rent controls, wealth taxes, decoupling energy from gas prices, water nationalisation - are all highly complex with lots of risks, feedback loops, and hidden costs.
