This is where we are now in the UK. 15 years of #Austerity has led us to a similar position to Weimar Germany in the 19.20s/30s. People are desperate for change and the UKs would be Hitler - Farage - is blaming and scapegoating immigrants. He wants to make Britain great again. Dangerous times!

There may not be obvious parallels with Jan 6th, conduct-wise, but the message is identical: laws are to be abused in pursuit of Trump’s foes & ignored in relation to his allies. He is telling his base that they can commit crimes with impunity. Fascism 101.

The Royal family paid Virginia Guiffre £12 million (of our taxes) in hush money. Now they strip Andrew of his titles before shit hits the fan. Always protecting their own interests - zero care for the victims. 3 children are left without a mother because of that waste of oxygen. Get him jailed!

About bloody time the "Paedo Prince" stepped back. Next step is for him to be charged, and if found guilty, a lengthy stretch in prison!

Worth a watch

A video first broadcast around 11 months ago. I urge you to watch this @lucyrigby.bsky.social and then get your boss to watch this. Why is he siding with football hooligans, just because they're Jewish???

How has the government got itself into the position of standing up for Israeli football hooligans, while criminalising peaceful supporters of Palestine Action?

How I feel about Starmer undermining UK police decisions on Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters.

KICK ISRAEL OUT OF UEFA Problem solved!

From 'the other place'

One dimension I'd missed in this Villa story is the likelihood of Maccabi ultras linking up with Villa's ultras to intimidate the area. The Israeli far right is well supported by the Football Lads' Alliance (Yaxley-Lennon affiliates). Muslim men would be out in force - like they were in '24.

Starmer's knack for making simple stories worse. Banning away fans from games is pretty common as this story says. Best not politicised, but he has to go there. Badly advised. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

❝We will not tolerate increased prices on American Consumers❞ What impact does he think his tariffs are having?

The match shouldn’t be going ahead full stop! This despot country should be excluded from all world events, in response to the atrocities committed in Palestine. #CrimesAgainstHumanity #Genocide #WarCrimes news.sky.com/story/maccab...

I notice all those brave journalists, Guido alumni, and Tory hacks, who manufactured a scandal - a dangerous one to national security, at that - out of gossip, supposition, and sticky tape, have gone ALL QUIET now the witness statements have been released and are exactly as the PM detailed at PMQs.

Pope to journalists: “…it is worth remembering Hannah Arendt’s warning that ‘the ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist.’”

You really sense that it will take generations for the scars to lessen - I doubt they will ever fully heal. Some kind of truth and reconciliation commission akin to what they had in South Africa might be a place to start though ..... ..... and I wouldn't want the Americans anywhere near it.

Watching the Bibi & Don Show treat this like some grand victory, while people returning to northern Gaza dig the rubble for loved ones' remains, is pretty revolting.

Reading Thiel, Yarvin, Peterson et al. makes you realise what passes for intellectual iconoclasm these days is all absolute bollocks. Why anyone gives any of these people the time of day let alone credibility is baffling.

Maybe there's something in this Nigel Farage and Nathan Gill Russian bribes story....

Tommy Robinson is in court on Monday and Tuesday. Keeps saying he might go back to jail, to grift his followers of yet more money. It would be nice for the rest of us to see him go back to jail, spare us from his constant begging for money.
