People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

🇻🇪🇨🇺This reckless and illegal act of military aggression is a blatant violation of international law and an attack on Venezuela’s sovereignty, regional peace, and the fundamental right of nations to exist free from imperialist violence. Read full statement bit.ly/4qBoOhB

fwiw it’s been about six weeks since Trump pardoned the former president of Honduras who had been convicted of trafficking drugs into the US

But this is exactly not what’s happening, so…?

Pathetic stuff, honestly.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

The demented ambition of a fascist, and the BBC is normalising it.

European allies will not do anything to stop it because they are too hopelessly dependent on the rotting corpse that is currently the American empire. But long term, no one will ever trust us again and the election of Trump will be viewed as the suicide of the last global superpower.

Spanish Health Minister calls the attacks on Venezuela unjustifiable

Every American should be ashamed of who we are and what we have become as a nation today. We have a long history of military misadventures and even crimes but the attacks we have been conducting on Venezuela are among the most wanton, egregious and least defensible acts we’ve ever conducted.

If Britain wasn't so utterly complicit in US wars, it could be doing the same.

If you need any more evidence that the BBC has been compromised by foreign government, it's currently reporting on Venezuela being bombed by the US like it deserves it.

Time to bring back 'Axis of Evil' for America and its obedient footsoldier in the Middle East.

Israeli drone back over Beirut? Sounds like it.

Like I always say, it's not journalists on social media that make a social media platform good for breaking news: it's having a user base so broad that you're likely to have an eyewitness on the ground.

From Confessions Of A Nazi Spy (1939). The US Constitution and Bill of Rights targeted in 1939. EU integration, the ECHR and even peace agreements like the Good Friday Agreement being exited, destroyed or ignored today.

Call to action! ❤️ Let’s challenge the harmful misgendering of trans people in BBC/media reporting — join this powerful campaign led by @tacc.org.uk Full details and campaign resources here: tacc.org.uk/2026/01/02/e...

Denying medical assistance is unacceptable in any circumstances. Israel’s threat to withhold registration from MSF & other INGOs is a cynical and calculated attempt to prevent organizations from providing services in #Gaza and the #WestBank, #Palestine. https://ow.ly/XQwE50XR5OE

Can we have one of these please

How 2026 was depicted in the sci-fi classic 'Metropolis' (1927)

Broadcasting elites attacking marginalised groups. This email sets aside protections enshrined in British law. It's divisive, harmful and straight from the far-right playbook. Where are the unions? This impacts employees too.

Bridget Phillipson MP, Minister for Women and Equalities We’ve asked the Minister what steps the Government is taking to ensure public bodies, including public service broadcasters, comply with equality law and do not contribute to discriminatory harm. 5/6

Women and Equalities Committee (WEC) We’ve asked the Committee to scrutinise whether national media practices — particularly by the BBC — are undermining equality protections under the Equality Act 2010. This falls within the WEC’s remit to examine how equality law operates in practice. 3/6

BBC Board & Editors We’ve lodged a formal complaint over repeated failures to meet the BBC’s own editorial standards when reporting on trans people, and their repeated use of language the BBC style guide explicitly warns against. 2/6

We’ve today formally written to multiple public bodies about BBC reporting on transgender people. Here’s who we’ve contacted and why. 1/6

This isn’t “supporting the working class”, it’s DIVIDING the working class between workers who “belong” here and those who “don’t”. Creating and fostering division among workers is famously the opposite of a left-wing position.

1. Don't give your DNA away, especially to US corporations fronting as 'heritage' firms. 2. Stop explaining shit to racists, it doesn't matter. The biggest racists in N. Ireland for instance, their origins largely track back to only 1600s here at best - they don't care about history or orgins then.

We're having trouble keeping track of how many countries President "I deserve a Nobel Peace Prize" has bombed. www-aljazeera-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.alja...

“If I walked out there today and got hit by a car, he would be orphaned,” despite his biological mother, who has raised him, still being alive... it also means her wife cannot undertake some of the practical tasks of parenting such as making medical decisions or enrolling her child in school.”

UK labour is currently defined by policies that support genocide, hate disability, are anti-trans, anti-lgbt, anti-migrant, anti-choice, anti-free speech, anti-freedom-to-protest. 'The left' is built on values of equality, solidarity, justice, better lives for all. How is this so hard to understand?

In 2025, 41,472 people had to arrive by small boat to the UK. Zero small boats came to NI. That's 64 people per parliamentary constituency across the UK per year. In NI, 32,000 people died on hospital waiting lists in 3 years, that's 10,666 per year or 562 per parliamentary constituency. [1/2]

Suzanne Moore in 2020: "As a feminist, I would argue that gender is socially constructed, and it can be reconstructed." And in 2025: "This must be the year Britain finally kills off trans ideology." Transphobia is the engine that pulls the train of fascism.

Where is the so-called British PM on all this?

How on earth does someone who stole arms and ammunition manage to get out on bail?

A serving NI cop who stole arms and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition emerges from court on bail with a 5.11 tactical cap. Cops were tipped off before and faied to act. Who covered this up within the PSNI. What are his paramilitary / terror links? Who protected him? What level of collusion?

French police unions refuse to kill people at sea. Britain is a disgrace for even pursuing this plan.

YouGov found that 91% of trans, non-binary, and intersex adults distrust the UK Labour party, that two-thirds now feel unsafe in the UK, with 25% reporting they have suffered physical violence. Another poll found that LGBTQ+ voters are increasingly abandoning UK Labour, often in favour the Greens.

How many global conflicts is the US and its proxy Israel directly involved in right now .. and still nothing from Keir Starmer.

Lovely piece of ephemera. Milk token label sold by the Co-op to raise funds for milk for Spanish children. Threepence+sixpence. By Dec 1938, £23,000 raised (~1.6m today!) across 426 branches, mainly in working class areas-this one is stamped Islington. I like to imagine my grandparents buying one.

And still U.K. Gov, MPs and other orgs that should know better prop up Twitter.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, "And you are going to forbid that debate in this Parliament?" "What is happening in Gaza is a genocide" "Repeat after me, ladies and gentlemen, it is a genocide"

An important story from N. Ireland. UK Gov is choosing not to fund NI according to need. Almost 10 x times as many people died on hospital waiting lists in 3 yrs in the North vs 30 yrs of conflict. 'Many people are spending their final days in pain & discomfort, without the treatment they need.'

-TikTok labels less than 1.38% of this content as AI-generated -Nearly ⅓ of accounts & ½ of the top 10 showed content sexualizing female bodies, including minors -False news, anti-immigrant narratives & explicit trends were widespread -55% of AI content remains unlabelled; only 10% of creators label

Jimmy Kimmel reckons all will be well in 3 years. But the problem is that America is repeatedly voting for fascism. They like the 'strong man' abuse of minorities, genocide & terrorising other nations. America won't be ok in 3 years & every country should be divesting and insulating from the US.

Someone really needs to find out who these men were #speirghorm

France has exonerated women who were convicted of performing or seeking an abortion, before legalisation in 1975. This "is an act of justice toward those thousands of lives shattered by unjust laws," said the minister-delegate for gender equality. Read more: www.lemonde.fr/en/france/ar...
