The UK's permission for the US to use its bases in attacking Iran amounts to complicity in the crime of aggression. It drags us into what could be an endless war, without democratic or even parliamentary consent.

"While some ambassadors retiring in disgrace get tens of thousands of pounds in pay off..." Tom Tugendhat might also want to raise the case of Liz Truss who gets £115,000 a year for life from the taxpayer to fund her office and secretarial costs as a former PM. An office she held for 49 days.

I dunno why, but I found this hilarious. After reading all about the Epstein-related horrors, this is a bit of light relief about AI slop. You get what you give, apparently. 🤷♀️

Feds gave Jeffrey Epstein a sweetheart deal when he was alive, let him die before facing trial, obstructed justice after his death, punished victims for demanding transparency, and are now trying to move on without addressing the vast corruption and abuse. THIS is how our “justice” system works.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

The conflation of "foreign criminals" and "illegal migrants" is disgusting. Vile when some people don't have a safe route to flee from the utter detestation & brutality of war. It's all grim enough without the Labour Government pushing further misinformation.

Nigel Farage has been a lifelong racist. He's been a racist since his school days. David Lammy was forced to apologise for saying Farage flirted with the Hitler Youth - but what do you call it when someone sings Hitler Youth songs? Read Chloe Deakin's letter on Farage's fascism and racism at school.

What a horrible time this was. I can remember screaming at the TV when Johnson was on. It was obvious from that harrowing footage from Italy that we needed to lock down far sooner. I loathe and despise Boris Johnson with every fibre of my being.
