MPs laughed when Jake Richards dismissed Jeremy Corbyn’s request for a meeting on the Palestine Action hunger strikers. Laughed. This is who we’re governed by, people entrusted to represent a nation, yet so insulated by power they respond to human suffering with indifference and mockery.

Erich Fromm once wrote a book called Fear Of Freedom. Here David Graeber relates some of Fromm's ideas to the modern world of work.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Please RT/repost! WIN A UNIQUE ARTWORK BY ME, WITH PROCEEDS TO CHARITY Really nice to be asked by @aniglass.bsky.social to create something new from the artwork of her album Phantasmagoria (which features my photography) for the charity National Deaf Children's Society @ndcs-uk.bsky.social

Everyone understands who is most happy about this, and why they are.

Most asylum seekers arrive with their valuables long lost in bombed or abandoned homes, stolen, or sold to afford the dangerous clandestine passage to safety The real thing of value to be snatched from refugees under these proposals is far more painful: their families & futures Me, for @zeteo.com

Indentured servitude as government policy? Great! Great news!!

When a Labour government sees the approval of Tommy Robinson as more important that the approval of the Labour Party membership, things are probably going wrong

The cruelty is the point. Shameful.

Your regular reminder that there is absolutely nothing "hard" or "tough" about targeting the poorest, most vulnerable, and least able to defend themselves groups of people on the entire planet

This is a new low from a govt plumbing the depths of performative cruelty in hopes that the public won’t notice they have no answers to the real issues facing this country A sensible, humane govt would focus on safe routes to prevent people making dangerous small boat crossings

If we don’t signal our virtue every now and again - then so many believe they are utterly alone - “virtue signalling” is not there to say “aren’t I good” but “there are more of us than you might imagine” and “fuck you for demanding that only the brutal and the bullies may speak”

The billions of pounds to be spent on developing small modular reactors’ on Anglesey would be better spent on insulating Welsh homes and on renewable technologies, according to the group Nuclear Free Local Authorities ✍️Martin Shipton buff.ly/wfhpTcE

To reiterate, this is about making life immeasurably more miserable and stressful for some of the most vulnerable people, in the almost certainly vain hope of winning over the votes of racists. Anything more shabby and shameful is difficult to envisage.

Is it time for the teapot of Radical Hope? I feel it's time.

100% this. And not just the Welsh Left. The Left across Britain should be rejoicing in the plural voices of this island and educating themselves out of the Anglo-bubble I routinely observe them occupying. Not just Welsh. ALL our voices. Dont confuse anglo-supremacism for unity. Sort it out mun.
