I think Labour have finally taken in the message that they can't beat Reform by being Reform-lite, so they're going to try being Full-Strength Reform instead.

Yikes

It's hard to find words to capture quite how revolting, steeped in bigotry, irresponsible, morally unmoored, Labour has become. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

More than a dozen Israeli soldiers spoke to ITV for their new documentary Breaking Ranks: Inside Israel’s War, about how their army’s two-year campaign in Gaza involved shooting unarmed Palestinians en masse, using teenagers as human shields, and flattening entire neighborhoods without pretext of...

🚛 Gaza NGOs coordinator, Eyad Amawi, tells Drop Site that the situation in Gaza remains one of genocide and “engineered suffering.” More than a month into the ceasefire, he says nothing has meaningfully improved: aid is still choked off, UNRWA is blocked from operating at full capacity, and only...

🚨Palestinian Prisoner Begs Lawyer Not to Visit: “They Rape Me When You Come” 💭 Journalist Samira Mohyeddin: This is the same client in your video? 💭 Israeli Lawyer Ben Marmarelli: It’s my only client. 💭 Mohyeddin: So that same client is being brutalized in the way you described every time you...

Private Equity Curse. PE firms taking millions in profits from care sector each yr, over a third are in tax havens £256m profit in three England regions, £45m in dividends, £33.6m paid in interest mostly to affiliates in tax havens. Less spent on care. Yet govts handing NHS to PE.

holy shit: “Among the 2,000 UK adults surveyed, 85% were unaware that Britain forcibly transported more than 3 million Africans to the Caribbean, 89% did not know that Britain enslaved people in the Caribbean for more than 300 years” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

This piece was greenlit and then killed by a British newspaper, so I’ve decided to publish myself instead. Trans People Deserve Better. "Gender critical" feminism doesn't help women but it does help the far right open.substack.com/pub/wellread...

Vote Labour

This is a new low from a govt plumbing the depths of performative cruelty in hopes that the public won’t notice they have no answers to the real issues facing this country A sensible, humane govt would focus on safe routes to prevent people making dangerous small boat crossings

🔴 Once again, a huge number of fossil fuel lobbyists are participating in climate talks. A new analysis from #KickBigPollutersOut found that more than 1,600 fossil-fuel lobbyists have been granted access to #COP30 👇 kickbigpollutersout.org/Release-Kick... 1/ 🧵

One of thirty transgender women who attended today’s pope-hosted lunch with Sr. Geneviève Jeanningros says she received “violent messages ” in the lead up to today, but writes she was at a “grade A reception” with Leo. She delivered a letter to Pope on behalf of all transgender persons.

AMERICA TODAY!!! FUCK YOU @Sec_Noem!!! FUCK YOU @ICEgov!!! FUCK YOU @GovRonDeSantis!!! FUCK YOU TO THIS ADMINISTRATION. If you voted for this and are ok with this, please help it make sense. If you are appalled by this, VOTE THE ENABLERS OUT I 2026. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/11/16/s...

NEW: In his first interview since his arrest for protesting outside the Chicago-area ICE facility, @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social tells me he has "bruises all over my body." Even so, he said, “the cruelty that goes on that facility … must be 100 times worse." religionnews.com/2025/11/15/a...

Yeah, this is scary stuff. So anti-fascists are waging war on western civilisation. Right.

1/ I’d like to share what’s happened since Sept. 30, the night of the most dramatic raid of the Trump administration’s Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago. Under the cover of darkness, 37 immigrants were taken from an apartment complex …🧵

The Labour Government reeling off the same far-right talking points on immigration. And look who is celebrating. The far-right. There is a political alternative that won’t ever scapegoat those fleeing war, persecution and torture join.greenparty.org.uk

NEW: Welcome to the Great AI Bubble. Yes, it’s here. And yes, it’s going to burst. It’s also got way more in common with the Epstein scandal than you really want to know. open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

it is wild that Labour is doing exactly what the reactionary centrists recommend and is absolutely destroying its base of support as a result, and yet reactionary centrists in the US are just utterly silent about the complete failure of their program.

To suggest that having lived a life so grim that even an English tribunal will grant you asylum, and to have somehow managed to get here at great risk to life, is a "golden ticket" is absolutely fucking contemptible. Shame on this so-called Labour Party.

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

BBC Bias is often in the eye of the beholder So let’s stick to measurable facts During 10 yrs of debate about Brexit, BBC QuestionTime had Britain’s Members of the European Parliament on the show 50 times Every single one was from the pro Brexit minority 47 were from UKIP/BP 23 times Farage

BBC coverage was never balanced. Palestinians “die”, but Israelis are “killed”. “Clashes” replaced “bombardments”. “Conflict” replaced “siege”. War crimes were softened or buried. Pro-Israel voices spoke freely, International law was treated as optional. www.thenational.scot/politics/256...

UPDATE: 30 mosques targeted with anti-Muslim hate now. Our monitoring services in Tell MAMA highlight the 30 mosques and Islamic institutions targeted between June-October 2025.

Just some British patriots in Benidorm, taking over a street in Spain to shout in their own language about unwanted foreigners. It’s a blessing that they are too thick to understand irony.

It's time to get your war on! @suzannahrowntree.bsky.social tells us how medieval battles were *really* fought and how they can work as a model for fantasy writers.

ChatGPT clearly needs to be banned as a public health disaster

From a statement from faith leaders at Broadview this morning: "God does not bless cages. God does not sanction abductions. God demands freedom."

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..." Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night: www.propublica.org/article/chic...

Please tell me this is satire. I fear this is not satire.

What a truly vile and hateful set of people we have running the country.

To explain briefly: at the moment people successful in their asylum claims get permission to stay in the UK for 5 years, then have to apply for permanent residency. At that point a review of their status is done, but it’s rare not to succeed at that point unless they‘ve committed an offence 1/

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

The monstrous treatment of Palestinian children by Israeli guards in Sde Temain torture camp. Israel is a sick, twisted society.

James Dyson owns more UK land than the actual KING. But he pays an effective tax rate of LESS THAN 1%* on his total wealth. Here’s a novel idea @keirstarmer: to fund schools and hospitals, TAX THE BILLIONAIRES. 📍Station Lane, Bristol - near James Dyson’s £20m country estate Dodington Park

Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

Reform UK Ltd gets 92% of its funding from climate change deniers and fossil fuel corporate interests.

How many budget rumours is it now to go before budget day? 25? 40? I've lost count.

UK's "Ministry of Defence made 49 official visits to Israel since 7 October 2023, [..] almost two trips a month." "[F]our times higher than previously disclosed in Ministry of Defence transparency logs, which showed 12 visits by senior officials." #UK #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Genocide #Military

The BBC, quite consciously, sets out to demean and belittle trans people. This is both morally contemptible and in breach of its Charter obligations. We've made it super easy for you to write to the BBC and tell it to stop. Please use - and share with your networks. goodlaw.social/2j5q

As Mark Hertling predicted, Venezuelan armed resistance would be highly decentralized - and so very hard to break. The country is quite large, with widely varied terrain, and Maduro has for over a decade been preparing for an asymmetrical war with the US. In short, another dumb & disastrous war.

We've all seen the top-line figure of 1,600 fossil fuel lobbyists at #COP30 - or one in every 25 participants. But how many were brought by European governments? @fossilfreeeu.bsky.social did some follow-up research with #KickBigPollutersOut 🧵 fossilfreepolitics.org/news/eu-brin...
