We have received numerous credible reports of torture, killing, and inhumane treatment of detained individuals at the Camp East Montana migrant detention facility, located within Fort Bliss. #txlege

This ought to be terminal for both Morgan McSweeney and Josh Simons. Sinister and unacceptable.

We believe US military or intelligence personnel are operating at 24 sites in Britain at least -- more than successive governments have told parliament. Help us find more information because the government is refusing to. See next post... Pls repost thread www.declassifieduk.org/the-24-site-...

New Epstein emails show Peter Mandelson secretly advising JPMorgan’s CEO on how to fight Labour’s 2009 bankers’ bonus tax - even suggesting he “mildly threaten” the Chancellor. Mandelson was Business Secretary at the time. A year later, he was seeking work with JPM.

Just started doing new data analysis and I know I keep saying this, but: I really, really don't think people appreciate how much this moral panic was a deliberate and extremely expensive invention.

Matt Goodwin makes a living out of railing against university educated elites & his whole schtick is "he was the first person in his family to go to university", which is a bit weird given that his Dad, now being heavily invoked for his Manchester connection, appears to have a string of degrees.

#BBCBreakfast reporting on the latest attempts by the Labour govt to water down the Hillsborough Law. They really are despicable.

the Iranian drought story is insanely undercovered. foreignpolicy.com/2025/08/07/i...

Shot, chaser Young men more likely to vote Green than Reform. Young men second most progressive group of any demographic. Combined right-wing vote barely bigger than Green vote alone for young men

www.reddit.com/r/transgende... Guess what? The story about the trans M&S employee and the bra fitting is a pack of lies and distortions. Want to know what really happened and how colleagues stood up for her? Read her own account here.

UK has been running intelligence/targetting flights for Israel over Gaza using their Cyprus base for 20 months. Apparently, they recently contracted this out to a private "contractor" to avoid criticism. Sadly, these idiots forgot to turn off their transponders on July 28th.

In the New Yorker profile of Curtis Yarvin, ideological lodestar of Trump, Stephen Miller and the ascendant American technofascist right, we learn that he's been spending time with Blue Labour peer Maurice Glasman, who Starmer's current right-wing genuflections are aimed to please. So that's nice.

Ahead of the expected proscription of Palestine Action - the first time a protest group has been legally redefined as terrorist - I went through the Hansard of the 2000 Act they're being banned under. Turns out MPs were assured the law wouldn't be applied this way. Thread 🧵🔽

A Harvard study of IDF data finds that there are 377,000 people unaccounted for in Gaza. That estimate is six times the number of people normally cited as killed. Genocide. medium.com/@m4xim1l1an/...

You get a lot of centrist YIMBY types going on about planning and "get government red tape out the way and just build build build!" but impossible to look at this graph and draw any conclusion other than "oh, shit, the shortfall is just state housing"

The Minister who introduced the Gender Recognition Bill in the House of Lords in 2003 made it clear that "a transsexual person would have protection under the Sex Discrimination Act [the predecessor to the Equality Act] as a person of the acquired sex or gender." /1

essentially, the criticisms are being taken seriously, and they will probably sink the bill before it even gets to the lords, where it would have to go through the same process

it's a private member's bill, so it can't be carried over into the new session (prob June) if it hasn't finished progress in both houses. there is mountain of amendments - about 500 so far - which are all being debated at length, basically blocking it from moving on from committee

Une vingtaine de nervis d’extrême droite ont attaqué une soirée cinéma antifasciste hier à Paris. 1 personne blessée au couteau, 2 hospitalisées. Le parquet ouvre une enquête pour "tentative d’homicide volontaire". Par @mmace.bsky.social @pierreplottu.bsky.social www.liberation.fr/politique/ta...

#Paris - Des fascistes attaquent une soirée cinématographique de la Young Struggle, armés de bâtons et de couteaux. Ils blessent une personne. Des heures se sont écoulées et, pour le moment, aucun militant d'extrême droite n'a été interpellé. Voici la vidéo de leur fuite.

Un attentat fasciste au couteau a eu lieu hier contre des camarades et orga antifascistes. Solidarité antifasciste avec les camarades et auto-organisation et autodéfense populaire pour ne pas laisser faire ❤️‍🩹🖤
