We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️ youtu.be/BRHxXHZmVAM

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Carole Cadwalladr, "It goes back to this black hole of Brexit and nobody wants to talk about Russian interference in this country in relation to politics and the effect it has had" "There's a refusal to have an inquiry which parliament called for and Boris Johnson refused to have"

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions. It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

When you think of health and safety laws and human rights laws as “obstructive bureaucracy”, stopping you being as vicious and damaging as you want to be to immigrants - who you encourage voters to blame for your own abject failures - you’ve become a monster. Let’s hope it ends up devouring itself.

There's always a tweet.

Oh you’re confusing Frost with someone who has integrity, and who negotiated a Brexit deal that he understands and sticks to. Instead of an absolute loser who duffed it all up, then walked away when he couldn’t handle the failure. Now he wants to leave the ECHR. What a total arse.

When they tell you are, believe them.

Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS. Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies. AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS. Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.

Proper LOLs at Suella Braverman defecting to Reform... The party that’s spent years attacking the Home Office has just welcomed the person who actually ran the Home Office. Brilliant work lads.

The defection of Suella Braverman, who was sacked twice from Government in disgrace, spent £700m of taxpayers' money to send four volunteers to Rwanda on a deportation scheme that was then scrapped and has a public approval rating of minus 32 is currently being described as a "major coup" for Reform

They know what they say is untrue, they do not care it is untrue. The media know that what they repeat is untrue, they do not care it is untrue. Their supporters know what they are told is untrue, they do not care it is untrue. Telling the truth is not enough, unless people care about the truth.

Board of Peace - Season 1

This.. and we keep tracking, because looking away is not an option

Not a statesman. Not strong. Not patriotic. Not principled. Farage is a traitorous little shit who is too compromised and too desperate to please Trump, to serve the best interests of our country. He will only ever betray us because he has to see Brexit through to the bitter, broken end. (iPaper)

Carole Cadwalladr, "He's not that cuddle cosy golf club English pub figure" "He is in a relationship with the US far right and with the European pro-Kremlin far right" "What happened in Brexit, we saw that money that force that influence, those networks coming together"

We already have @JenniferNadel, Luke Myer MP & @marcusjball pushing for this Plus 30 cross‑party MPs already back it If we want truth in politics, this is the moment to act So please - click below to email your MP & urge them to support this bill www.compassioninpolitics.com/write_mp_acc...

It’s all Putin. Everyone knows that, right?

I think witnessing Brexit as both insider & outsider had a profound effect on Mark Carney. His resolve in the face of the next stage of the attempted destabilisation of the West might even be described as a ‘Brexit benefit’!

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

The ‘Board of Peace’ is a protection racket on an international scale that would impress Trump’s mentor Roy Cohn.

It wasn’t after Farage broke MP rules the first time failing to declare income from his many jobs (being an MP is a hobby) It wasn’t the 5th or 10 th time.. By the 15th time even the most lax would hire someone to do admin, he’s multimillionaire after all So he wont after the 17th time either 🤷🏼‍♂️

BREAKING: Jack Smith: "As I testify before the Committee today, I want to be clear: I stand by my decisions as Special Counsel, including my decision to bring charges against Pres. Trump. Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that Pres. Trump engaged in criminal activity."

And we're back. The moment the danger passes, people rush to pretend everything is alright again. It isn't and will not be.

The international version of the typical Mar a Lago guest list.

"...he shall not receive within that Period any other Emolument from the United States, or any of them." "...no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust...shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title...from any King, Prince, or foreign State."

The BBC has gone beyond both-sidesism, and frequently now presents only Trump's account of events (This isn't the only recent example)

the mainstream media has been covering donald trump as a political figure for 11 years now. they know he is full of shit. they push headlines like "trump rules out using military force to take greenland" even though they know the context of his rhetoric. it is a deliberate misinformation tactic.

He just told people in a country where the main language is German that they would all be speaking German if it wasnt for the U.S - he is a complete and utter imbecile and a feckin Dangerous one at that

In an amazing moment, Al Gore just shredded Donald Trump's performance at Davos 👏💙😎

It is incumbent on every single decent-minded, responsible British citizen to do *everything* they can to prevent Farage from gaining power. It couldn’t matter more for the future wellbeing of our country. Him as PM is too grotesque for words. Trump is a genuinely comparable case study.

This is a truly horrifying account of increasingly likely collapse of essential natural systems which would bring mass food shortages, price rises & global disorder. Commissioned from UK intelligence chiefs but scandalously suppressed by Govt, & sneaked out now while attention is elsewhere 👇

She nailed Jennings to the wall with this. Good for her.

"We'll come to (Nato's) rescue, but I question whether or not they'll come to ours" - Trump today The day after the 9/11 attacks, in an emergency session, for the first time in its history, NATO invoked Article 5. All 18 allies supported the US response www.911memorial.org/learn/resour....

Trump: I need to take over Greenland now, because if I don’t, Russia will. Also Trump: Vladimir will you please join my Board of Peace?

Mark Carney's speech really is terrific: full text is here and very much worth your time.

"No warrants. No courts. No lawyers. And no appeals. People vanished in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer meant anything. The knock on the door was the sentence". The lack of awareness from McDaniel is stunning. This is exactly what ICE is doing right now.

Am I the only one who's beginning to suspect that the never-ending 'Threat/Remove Threat of Tariffs' cycle that the Trump Cult call foreign policy, is nothing more than insider dealing for the benefit of friends, family and benefactors? Threaten tariffs, crash market, buy, withdraw threat, sell

“Sold a lie.” Nine years after Brexit, Brian May delivers a blistering verdict on the vote that reshaped Britain. Calling it a disaster driven by greed and false promises, he warns a generation has paid the price. rockworldsociety.top/2026/01/16/s...
