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.

Yes it was and if you shouted about it at the time there was any number of people willing to tell you it was 'alternative news' and 'no different to the BBC' and free speech Highly effective propaganda and Putin was literally laughing at us as the damage was done. Very similar to the X situation.

Coming back to this with my car hating hat on because it's worth noting how often right-wingers have used vehicles to attack protesters, and in fact, Republican lawmakers have passed laws that shield drivers if they hit protesters. Like this one in Florida.

Parking on the pavement in London has been illegal for 52 years and in the rest of the UK it's just a fact of life. Central government just opted against a blanket national ban. Anyway here's an excellent advert from when it was banned in London:

Critically, we also need the public to support actions that enable older people to live great lives without having to drive for when they fail the eye tests. So the public need to get onboard with no pavement parking, pedestrian priority, denser housing, fewer out-of-town shopping centres, etc etc

As I (and thousands of other people) predicted, Labour's non-deal with the USA wasn't worth the paper it isn't printed on. Starmer set Britain up to be Trump's chew toy. Absolutely catastrophic to have traded our EU membership for this turbocharged farce.
