The people of Gaza deserve better than Trump’s gang of rogues. The Palestinian people — and only the Palestinian people — should determine their own future.

He keeps referring to Greenland as Iceland. His dementia is on full display. Just look at him slumped over the podium . Time for people to get up and leave the clown show.

BREAKING - @zackpolanski.bsky.social is telling defence surveillance corporation Palantir to 'pack its bags and get the hell out of the NHS' www.thecanary.co/uk/news/2026...

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Quite the statement from the Prime Minister of Poland

More than half of Greenland's capital turnout to protest Donald Trump's planned invasion.

Donald Trump has not assembled a “Board of Peace” for Gaza. He has assembled a Board of Occupation. The future of Gaza is not up to Trump, Blair or Netanyahu. That is up to the Palestinian people.

Thanks to Brexit, we no longer have to put up with unelected bureaucrats. In other news, the new leader of Reform in Scotland is Lord Malcolm Offord, totally unelected in any capacity whatsoever and appointed as leader by me alone. Still, it's only Scotland.

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen: "If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU." "Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

Thoughts with those protesting in Iran. More than 500 dead, more than 10,000 arrested and people are still on the streets. There are levels of courage which need to be recognised. I just hope, but lack optimism, if this goes bad, even more so, UK et al will ensure any who need asylum can get it.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Past U.S. interventions point to a familiar outcome for Venezuela: imposed neoliberal “reforms” that transfer public assets to private investors, crushes unions, and guarantees profit extraction for foreign firms under the language of "democracy" & "freedom".

The United States is behaving like a rogue state. The President has carried out an illegal act of war, kidnapped a foreign head of state, and is now threatening military action against NATO allies. This is a constitutional crisis. Impeachment must be on the table.

The US may be about to launch an operation from its bases on UK soil against an oil tanker. I ask what and when the UK government will be informed about the operation. Will we have any say on its nature? No answer #Sovereignty?

Keir Starmer’s evasiveness towards Donald Trump’s assault on Venezuela is a clarifying example of Britain’s ‘special relationship’ of unthinking submission to the White House’s interests.

What in the Gestapo is going on in Grand Rapids? Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

The BBC has been banned from using the word Kidnap to describe the Kidnapping of Maduro. No doubt when Greenland is invaded they will be banned from using the word invasion.

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

French Foreign Ministry: “The removal of Maduro from power and the violation of sovereignty constitute a serious act of aggression against the dignity of the Venezuelan people and their right to determine their own future.

Spray paint a plane and they'll detain you without trial and call you a terrorist. Kidnap a foreign head of state - and Keir Starmer will make it clear we've played no part in it but will wait for the scheduled press conference in a few hours before potentially condemning it

Stop Trump Coalition condemns the bombing of Venezuela and calls for the British government to finally condemn the US for its warmongering. stoptrump.org.uk/trumps-crimi...

the US had carried out – or been a partner to – 622 overseas bombings in all, using drones or aircraft, since January 20, 2025, when Trump took office. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/12...

For a government that is led by a former human rights lawyer, the treatment of these hunger strikers is truly debased

Yes she was an animal rights activist, but we should honour the dead by highlighting *all* their activism. Bardot faced French courts five times and was convicted on each occasion for “incitement to racial hatred”, and she called Muslims “invaders” who are “destroying us, destroying our country”.

By restricting jury trials, removing protest rights and expanding surveillance, Labour is entrenching an authoritarian legal infrastructure that a far-right government will not hesitate to exploit.

🧵/ Today a damning parliamentary report on the state of palliative care services in England was published. Services are patchy, underfunded & “ill-equipped” to address end-of-life needs. Bereavement support is “frequently inaccessible. The palliative care workforce is in a “critical” situation”.

This is a really appalling editorial error on BBC Question Time "Apparently one in three children don't speak English as a first language, why does this matter?" Chair says "have English as a second language" Caption changes the meaning entirely "Don't speak fluent English"

Watering down the Employment Rights Bill is a massive own goal in the fight against Reform. Me on The World Turned Upside Down blog: theworldturnedupsidedownne.wordpress.com/2025/12/11/w...

How many times do we need to point this out? By appeasing the far right, you do not weaken it. You strengthen it. While weakening your own position. There's a vast amount of academic research showing this. But Labour will not listen. www.theguardian.com/law/2025/dec...

The government's climbdown on day one rights against unfair dismissal was sold to us as a way out of the impasse on the Employment Rights Bill. Pragmatism, eh? Well guess what? The business lobby (via the Lords) isn’t giving up & is pushing for more concessions. Funny that. 🤔

Reform UK councillor slapped with a £40,000 fine for hiring an illegal worker. 🤔 So much for "taking back control", apparently the rule is: deport them… but only after we’ve squeezed some cheap labour out of them. A masterclass in hypocrisy!

I think Transactual put it best (in reference to the girl guides) and now Labour too: "There is no problem being solved here, only harm being done." All to appease the right, who hate them anyway - shame on them.

“In 2017 there was not a single asylum seeker who arrived on a boat. Today we have 46,000 a year and do you know why? It was because of the botched Brexit deal pushed through by Boris Johnson and championed by Nigel Farage. Nigel Farage should be here apologising” Daisy Cooper

Finland has the lowest homeless rate in Europe. They designed apartment blocks for the homeless in which rent automatically adjusts to income, with mental-health support, job assistance & social workers on site. Stable housing creates a foundation for employment, recovery & long-term independence.

Juries are one of our most important safeguards against authoritarianism. There is an emergency in our courts which needs tackling – but addressing that doesn’t require ripping up rights. https://www.theguardian.com/law/2025/dec/02/david-lammy-proposals-jury-trials

“They stuck to their lethal strategy of pandemic influenza and the omertà imposed on their advisers, to not comment on policy. They endorsed their political masters who saw public health measures as a threat to economic success.”

“A death rate five times higher than the East Asian states that took rapid action to suppress and control the virus. Three times more deaths than in the Blitz. The bereaved families need accountability. They won’t get any from the medical establishment.”

Hard-hitting truth-telling from UCL Prof Anthony Costello…. “The Covid Public Inquiry is a devastating critique of medical advisers, civil servants and politicians who led the UK to the worst public health disaster in a century. More than 230,000 deaths.” www.bylinesupplement.com/p/230000-dea...

Listening to David Lammy on @BBCr4today attempting to justify abolishing trial by jury, it is increasingly and terrifyingly clear that he simply does not understand the issues.
