Yesterday, we made history. Around 7 MILLION people across the United States stood up to say #NoKings, with allies around the world in countries like Japan, the United Kingdom, France, and Australia joining us in solidarity. BUT OUR FIGHT IS NOT OVER.

A US citizen & human rights defender identified as Rachel S. was abducted & beaten by ICE Trump regime forces in LA, then transported to the hospital and then a detention center, local rights defenders demand an investigation. She is heard screaming: "Let me go! I am an American! I was born here!"

The power elite has drawn up the drawbridge www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/09... Wealth and power hid from view in a castle yesterday, too frightened to be seen by the population at large. Any society where those in charge realise that has to happen cannot last for long.

Let's be clear. The United States government just fired Jimmy Kimmel. Let that fucking sink in. When will enough be enough.

The Conservatives started this experiment. But Labour are fully on board too. No 10 refuse to comment or take action - but we're all paying the price for corporate greed. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

TV shows cancelled, people sacked or put on black lists... all for daring to speak the truth about "free speech warrior" Charlie Kirk. America has plunged head first into some very dark territory indeed. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Yet more of the levers slipping into the hands of the few.

“The trend in recent years has been for the great majority of extremist-related murders to be connected to some form of right-wing extremism. That is also true for 2024: for the third year in a row, all the murders identified were tied to right-wing extremism.” www.adl.org/resources/re...

Exc - The publisher of the Washington Post, Will Lewis, is facing fresh questions over his independence after leaked files revealed he gave extensive crisis support to Boris Johnson as a secret political adviser. Lewis spent two days with Johnson in No10 as part of a team battling to save him.

Peter Mandelson admits to continuing relationships Epstein after he was convicted - how on earth can he stay on as ambassador?

Mandelson getting sacked will be devastating for Mandelson but absolutely no-one else. Get rid, now. He ain't worth it. #PMQs

Farage currently on Sunday morning tv having his tummy tickled by Laura Kuenssberg. Why does any the BBC insist on giving this lying grifter a platform to peddle his dishonesty. Interview him, by all means, but for goodness sake hold him to account. Jamie Raskin showed this weasel for what he is.

The richest 100 billionaires in the U.S. have a net worth totaling $3.86 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is collectively worth $4 trillion. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

Last week I wrote to Coventry City Council about their £500,000 contract with Palantir. Palantir is a partner in Israel’s genocide in Gaza, collaborates with ICE in the US & is embedded in our NHS. Coventry (& the NHS) must divest from genocide & protect jobs, services & data.

Chicago had one of the BIGGEST protests ever with thousands hitting the streets to stand up against the regime, DHS, ICE & Trump's war on the American people. History is being made in the streets.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents. In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

BREAKING: In Chicago, Illinois—U.S. citizens protesting ICE were dragged into vans by masked federal agents with no badges and no warrants. People screamed: “Who are you? Where are you taking them?” This is authoritarian control in real time.

🎺🎺 @zarahsultana.bsky.social will join us Wed 17th September To tell Donald Trump he is NOT WELCOME in the UK! We won't stay silent while our government bows to the Trump regime!💪

"We will outline serious cuts to the welfare budget" says Nigel Farage. So big tax cuts for the wealthiest and welfare cuts for everyone else

@raskin.house.gov From here in the UK it was truly wonderful to see you handing Farage his a** on a plate at the congressional hearing. If only our own (client) media did such a good job of exposing him for the charlatan he obviously is.

The Trump family is cashing in on the presidency by raking in billions from their corrupt meme coin, which can be purchased covertly by foreign states and corporations, organized crime networks, pardon seekers and job seekers, to name just a few. What could go wrong?

Yes, RFK Jr is a monster. A cruel, ignorant, pathologically dishonest, conspiratorial monster. And it’s not surprising RFK Jr is where he is now. A cruel, ignorant, pathologically dishonest, conspiratorial monster chose him, nominated him. Vote in 2026 like your life depends upon it. Bcuz it does.

Today is the 5th anniversary of David Graber's death. And with everything happening in the world, his work is now more relevant than ever before.

Great power politics, climate breakdown, and rising nationalism are all feeding the military-industrial complex. And the military-industrial complex feeds all these trends right back. open.substack.com/pub/gracebla...

The far right are a bunch of hypocrites, Ex-BNP Lee Twamly faces conviction for illegally smuggling migrants across the channel! Twamley is also part of the 'Raise the Flag' movement. These people don't have a leg to stand on, they are common racist criminals. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvpg...

I turn on my TV and a TV presenter is asking a Govt minister why they are talking about rolling out free childcare when the big issue is asylum hotels. This is objectively insane.

Where has this ludicrous ECHR "debate" even come from. I've never once met an ordinary member of the public who's said to me, "Do you know what? We REALLY need to leave the ECHR." It's just a new right wing talking point because every other shit idea they've foisted on us has run out of steam.

An asset management oligopoly (BlackRock, Vanguard, Blackstone, Brookfield, L&G) and 700 more corporate lobbyists is turning housing, councils, public services into their personal cash machine.

Councils are hostages: Forced to fund landlords with public money Forced to seize land for SEZs Forced to pay above-market rents The result: bankrupt councils, broken communities, and booming dividends for Wall Street.

The £31m scandal The Guardian won’t name: Britain’s housing crisis resembles a hostage whose ransom is state-sanctioned extortion for predatory corporations. 1/ Councils in England spent £31m last year paying private landlords “incentives” to house homeless families open.substack.com/pub/european...

Labour are also REALLY shit at comms. Things like this are getting totally eclipsed by the flag nonsense and the phoney ECHR debate.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Can’t believe you’re asking about flags. You might want to ask @ashleytaborking.global.com why his company delivers nothing but 24/7 culture wars….it’s relentless and can only be by design.

Based on my kitchen post, I have seen a lot of "my husband doesn't cook" and "my bf doesn't cook". Here's a question, who here raised(s) their kids to know how to cook? Was it a thing in your home? I have taught all mine the basics and had them learn one main dish they can make from scratch.

Over a quarter of all homes sold in the first three months of 2025 were bought by real estate investors. If we want to make housing affordable again, we must get Wall Street out of our homes. https://youtu.be/q9TOGxDJ0TE?feature=shared

From Empire to the NHS, this country has always relied on outsiders. The real crisis isn’t migration – it’s dishonesty Latest from The Bear

Socialism is that evil thing that is really bad because it will make the ridiculously rich people less rich, while giving everyone else everything they need. Who tells you it is really bad? The ridiculously rich people of course.

"The Rule of Law in the US Just Took Its Last Breath" With the raid on Bolton's home, and the new investigations against top Democrats, we should be prepared for a new two-tiered system of laws. Rules for everyone else - but not for Trump. Another must-read for Zeteo from @kimwehle.bsky.social

this has almost certainly literally happened

The UK is in the grip of an ongoing right-wing coup. It is the main cause of economic decline and social tensions. Successive govts have been enrolled to make us subservient to corporations and the rich. Corporate power must be curbed/reversed for a better future.

We’re told that the wealthy are society’s great entrepreneurs. Without them, we’re told, there would be no jobs, no business, no innovation, but that’s a myth. The rich aren’t entrepreneurs. They preserve, protect and hoard instead. It’s time to stop believing their PR. youtu.be/q_YTAPez4-c?...
