there was absolutely no chance Faiza Shaheen would not have have won this seat and removed Iain Duncan Smith from Parliament. Sir Kier risked it to install a right winger instead, then when the gamble was lost appointed her to the Lords anyway.

Stop policing people's bodies 👏 linktr.ee/boldpolitics

I note that Shama Tatler has been nominated for a peerage. you may remember her as the Labour right winger handed Faiza Shaheen's PPC position in Chingford and Wood Green in a factional attack, where she was then rejected by the electorate.

Just checking in on my local MPs instagram and you'd never know that one of the larger employers in the entire region (and her former employer!) were just about to have a massive set of job cuts due to government funding issues and hostility towards international students driving

Adolf Hitler never came under the pressure the UK is presently suffering, apparently.

This professional lover of photo opportunities has said nothing against her own govt's plans to deny basic human rights to certain categories of people on xenophobic grounds.

YES IT IS ME, THAT'S HOW COME I PUT IN THE CORRECT PASSWORD

Starmer standing with the far right governments of Italy and Hungary to call for the ECHR to be watered down. When someone shows you who they are, believe them. --> Don't vote Labour, Reform or Tory.

Very illuminating interview with a former senior law enforcement officer for the USG who was an attache to the "security coordinator" for Israel and the Palestinian Authority. He whistle blew on Biden admin covering up the assassination of Shireen Abu Akleh.

Brian Eno on how Lula Da Silva's policy (in Brazil) of giving money to the poor both helped those poor families and stimulated the economy.

Racist cvnt alert.

This “McDonald’s AI ad was months of work” reminds me of the BBC guy and his algorithm that measures abuse of MPs - also “months of work” and when we pointed out his list of abusive words contained no racist slurs but did include “racist!” he never tweeted again

A so-called Labour PM trying to roll back human rights. Enough of the man. Get him out asap.

And anyone moaning about the Greens’ economic incoherence should note this. Labour prefer racism to economics.

Watching people humanize ChatGPT while dehumanizing literal small human children is one of the most fucked things about this era.

it's also worth noting that their incestuous relationship with the media has meant that layer of society is both out of its mind and completely unable to function in normal society. bodes well!

As is obligatory whenever Marina Hyde is brought up, please remember that when John McDonnell called Grenfell social murder she got extremely angry. You were allowed to be upset about it but you certainly couldn't criticise her landlord chums.

Yesterday, I visited my constituent, Amu Gib, who has been detained in HMP Bronzefield without trial since July. Amu is now on Day 39 of their hunger strike, yet there is complete silence across our mainstream media. This is an emergency. They must be granted bail, now.

But it's much, much worse than this, isn't it. Starmer & co aren't just shuffling their feet awkwardly. They're actively pursuing their own evisceration of liberal democracy with gusto & while yes, some of this is to appease the Fash King in Washington, much of it is obv bc they *like* it

I have so many screenshots of Spectator headlines about the perfidious Jew that they half-heartedly edited after they realised after the fact crossed the line. Sometimes the edits don't make any sense. Like this one, for example:

It should be plain by now that this *is* Starmer. The Tsar is not being misled by his advisers. The Tsar is personally driving Labour's descent into the abyss.

Exactly. In fact, having been a schoolboy at a not dissimilar school in that time, it's the Spectator article that spectacularly "misses the point": it's true that 'war talk' was the norm, but it was quite the opposite of the norm to identify *with* the Nazis - and certainly not "entirely typical".

Nothing but a Temu Enoch Powell. This rhetoric is straight out of the old fascist playbook. Shame on you, and shame on this Labour government.

Imagine this front page but for all the cis het white men raping women and girls with impunity in the UK

Labour as a government is fundamentally racist and xenophobic. Yes, you absolutely can say that a Reform or Conservative government would be worse for people, but you're still arguing over which flavour of racism you are prepared to swallow for a quiet life. 1/7

the right only have two modes: outright brutality and the most pathetic fucking shit you've ever seen

We simply have to do far right to stop the far right. Only a good fascist can beat a bad fascist. Adult in the room politics baybee

Does everyone get that this stuff is a brazen insult to their intelligence? People who at best sat on their hands saying nothing during the Norsefire billowing sixty foot flags, the hand on heart anthem-singing, migrant crackdowns and Powell speeches don’t give a fuck about anyone’s value or dignity

This is climate chaos: almost 1,000 people dead and 1,000,000 displaced due to extreme flooding in Indonesia

Quite an apposite targeted ad on Lady Penelope's latest, I thought:

It is truly impressive that despite the US having armed paramilitaries everywhere, that the UK appears to be farther ahead on the road to fascism.

once again asking what would be different if we had a Reform government

We checked. It’s cis white Christian men.

So we've gone from "he never said anything Nazi" to "well he might have said something Nazi but not in a hurtful way" to "well okay he probably did say something Nazi in a hurtful way, but didn't we all?"

Sorry, but this really isn’t great.

Sweet Jesus Starmer’s here to make the headlines about immigration again. The actual worst politician I’ve ever seen 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Today - are foreigners really human? Should they REALLY enjoy human rights protections like the rest of us? #r4today

Wondering about the editorial process that concluded that ironic Trumpian framing was a good idea. Pitching your tent in these fields never ends well.

Anyone who’s ever actually spoken to a single asylum seeker about their experiences in any country in Europe simply could not honestly conclude that what would improve things would be to further reduce their human rights protections. It’s vile scapegoating unworthy of us & it needs to end #r4today

I believe he's too stupid to realise how fascist he is. He's lost in a transactional worldview, he genuinely believes liberalism is just compassionate fascism. I'm sure he feels bound by a sense of grim necessity he wishes people would grow up & stop complaining about. Lonely child playing grownup.

Can’t believe we’ve forced them to delete all those weeks of hard work prompting :(

It tells you a lot, none of it good, that they think "Whomst among us hasn't gone through a Hitler fanboy phase?" is an actual justifiable defensive public position to take and not utterly beyond the pale.

Once more for the haters...

I wonder what Marina Hyde has against the gay, Jewish, trans-inclusive leader of a political party 🤔

In America it’s a deliberately dumb cartoon satirising the spiteful idiocy of a certain kind of middle aged reactionary; in Britain, it’s a newspaper column in the top selling paper, written by a former Prime Minister.

the way that ai is being advertised now is that everyone has to pretend to be incompetent and incredibly incapable and useless at everything

Do I want to read Marina Elizabeth Catherine Dudley-Williams (Hyde) thoughts on Zack Polanski? I put it to you that I fucking do NOT

The fun part is that this is one of *the least* black-hearted and cynical lies they told in the course of their seven-year long Krakatoan eruption of horseshit, drivel, wild exaggeration and utterly brazen fabrication.

They’re also having affairs with the politicians! But the actual reason imo is because the journalists in question are boring and the politicians lack so much charisma and generally are devoid of anything that might make them interesting
