Really dangerous. @teamlabouruk.bsky.social abandoning facts to pander to racist hysteria. It's inequality, #BrexitReality & #ClimateCrisis they should attack to improve people's lives.

Major mistake by @teamlabouruk.bsky.social to ape Reform & allow Farage to set the national agenda. Small boats and a million legal immigrants are both caused by Farage's #BrexitDisaster. Labour should have gone on the attack with facts, instead they legitimise Farage & his divisive, faux solutions.

Labour seems to think this further lurch to the right is a political masterstroke. On the contrary, it confirms their moral and political bankruptcy. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

This from @stephenkb.bsky.social cuts to the heart of the matter. Does the government not understand how toxic this argument is? Do they think they can somehow weaponise it? The last governments at least had the merit not of making this kind of foul claim.

Starmer’s anti-asylum policies show how utterly clueless he is about the right-wing media’s role in politics. He’s trying to fix a “problem” contrived by Farage, GB News and The Telegraph. He’ll never win, because ultimately he’s fighting a ghost – he’s fighting something that doesn’t really exist

I am obliged to report that when the No 10 spokesman gave this part of the statement there was a brief but heartfelt outbreak of laughter from journalists, one of whom later asked if the PM might thus be interested in a bridge he had to sell.

Laughable.

She's right. But... Palestinians use X as a lifeline. While Blue-sky sanitises & restricts their access. #Socialmedia

"Far from draining our welfare system, migrants are supporting the British state’s solvency." New analysis by @lgilbert.co ukandeu.ac.uk/lower-migrat...

People who have come to the United Kingdom legally, played by the rules and made it their home do not need to “go home”. This is their home. I've written to Kemi Badenoch to give her the chance to reject these divisive calls from her frontbencher Katie Lam.

A lot of sympathy with this. But I also find @bsky.app suppression of Palestinian accounts & #Genocide coverage pretty hard to tolerate.

As I was saying. Plot complete lost. #Trump #America

Plot completely lost in America.

wow

Wow! You'd never know here on sunny @bsky.app that there's a #Genocide going on. Yes there is. And Irsaeli ex military estimate they've killed 200,000. Perhaps there ought to be a bit more commentary here about that? #SilenceIsComplicity www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

The Prime Minister needs to clarify what legal advice has been received about the visit by Israel's President Isaac Herzog to the UK, and whether his entry is compatible with our obligations under the Genocide Convention.

Credit to @emilythornberry.bsky.social. she's absolutely nailed what the issues are! #Welfare #TaxTheRich #StopGazaGenocide‌NOW

Important to sign this one. What a disgrace that this war criminal is being welcomed by our government today. While he's actively murdering & starving innocent Palestinians. NO. Just NO.👇🏻 #StopGazaGenocide‌NOW secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/...

Palestinian women were told to go to U.S.-run aid sites in Gaza. They were killed and beaten instead, eyewitnesses say. mondoweiss.net/2025/07/pale...

US analysis found no evidence of Hamas aid theft in Gaza - https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/us-analysis-found-no-evidence-hamas-aid-theft-gaza

As Keir Starmer hires former Sun editor David Dinsmore as his new communications chief, a quick reminder of the sorts of communications Dinsmore helped to put out in his former job

For every politician and journalist who supported Israel's onslaught, or stayed silent: This photograph should haunt you for the rest of your life. You will never scrub the shame away. No future achievement, however great, will ever erase what you helped inflict on Gaza.

Wow! You'd never know on @bsky.app that 2 million Gazans are being starved and infants are now dying of malnutrition. You really have to look for it here. As long as we're all comfortable, right? #StopGazaGenocide‌NOW www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0...

Sorry to burden you with another jaw-dropping scandal. But what the government intends to do to chemicals regulation in the UK is chilling. Its consultation was slipped out so quietly that most of us missed it. When I read it, I saw why. This week's column: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Astonishing (or not?) UK Labour govt will make exactly the same mistakes over nuclear power as Tories Steadily gulled into a bad project until they have no option but to agree an expensive deal And only publish the embarrassing details when it’s too late to alter them www.ft.com/content/d431...

URGENT: a plea from me to all of you in London to please turn out for the #Marchforpalestine today. The situation is DESPERATE. People are collapsing & dying from hunger. Irreparable harm is happening. Don't let our government carry on doing nothing. Be on the right side of history. #GazaStarving

Am I the only bod on PC Blue-sky to feel some sympathy for #GreggWallace? It is actually a handicap not to be able to read the room & I don't dismiss formal diagnosis. Why wasn't his unacceptable behaviour confronted years ago?! That's equally shameful! www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Yet character is destiny. Can anyone explain why human rights lawyer Keir Starmer is barely heard on #GazaGenocide? Or why he chose to balance his books on the backs of the disabled? Or why he has a problem with free speech? Think I've seen enough thanks! www.thetimes.com/article/29e5...

New Scientist has a report on a controversial issue discussed last week at the #GlobalTippingPoints conference in Exeter: will we need solar radiation interference as a desperate measure, as politicians are failing to phase out fossil fuels? www.newscientist.com/article/2487...

World leaders have failed Palestine, their own voters & #InternationalLaw miserably. Criminally, actually. We can only hope for this deal for respite, but a decent president would not entertain Netanyahu & his evil concentration camp plan for one minute. #GazaStarving edition.cnn.com/2025/07/08/p...

This is what the NY Times chose to highlight from the Netanyahu/Trump meeting, compared to Al Jazeera. You decide which is the important news.

Thousands meet their MPs to show huge demand for climate action - Mass lobby in Westminster is kicked off with giant image on cliffs of Dover stating ‘89% of people want climate action’ #climatecrisis Story by me www.theguardian.com/environment/...

"Polling points to a “perception gap”, with half of MPs underestimating levels of public support for the net zero target." "72% of people say they would support onshore windfarms being built in their local area, with 17% opposed, MPs assume the opposite."

UK politics needs fundamental reform to stop representing its rich funders & start representing normal voters. #Inequality #ElectoralReform

For all the noise, we also spend one of the lowest proportions of GDP on welfare too. The UK government needs to stop punching down & tax up! #Inequality #Welfare

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is. In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol. And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

The Pope indirectly refers to the IDF as an “armed militia” and calls for sanctions and accountability for [Israeli] political elites who “grow fat with impunity.”

let's all be mad at Bob Vylan everybody

The BBC and UK MPs all rush to condemn Kneecap and Bob Vylan, meanwhile, Israeli kids sing horrifying state propaganda songs about the “annihilation” of Gaza whilst referring to themselves (white people) as “the pretty and the pure” and nobody says a fucking thing. This shit is chilling.

Bob Vylan and Kneecap are facing more consequences in the UK and US for speaking out against genocide than anyone responsible for committing it. IDF soldiers or Benjamin Netanyahu are not banned from entering either country

It’s a genocide.

Why is my Palestinian friend @Khalilaljbo.bsky.social being silenced like this @bsky.app @support.bsky.team? @mommunism.bsky.social. why doesn't his handle even show?

Help Architect in Gaza Feed Family & Rebuild. I've helped dear Khalil set up his campaign! Gaza will need architects, eh? Let's live in hope! We must try to get these people through this hell, given our governments do nothing! #StopGazaGenocide‌NOW chuffed.org/project/1368...

Interesting map shows where holocaust denial is a crime. And rightly so - it's profoundly offensive. I think we need to see #Genocide denial treated as seriously as incitement to violence. It's dangerous and it's everywhere in our media. #StopGazaGenocide‌NOW

There really isn't time to focus on *anything* but this, and we are mired in gratuitous slaughter and insane politicians denying there's even an issue. #Help

JVL statement on Palestine Action The Palestine solidarity movement needs to unite in opposition to the proscription of PA, a body that has never espoused or practised violence against individuals, as a terrorist organisation. This move is a direct attack on the whole movement is.gd/cMqePA
