I've been saying this!

Bombing Venezuela while coordinating a genocide in Palestine while threatening to attack Iran (again) while destabillizing Somalia while carrying out a heist in the DRC... US imperialism is the greatest threat to peace and security in our world today and it's not even close.

The IEA got everything they wanted and believed in when Liz Truss came to power, and her government and their ideology didn't survive two months of contact with reality before being totally exposed and collapsing. Total frauds, but still screaming that they need to be the ones in charge.

Nothing nice or wholesome or joyful or community based is allowed to exist.

ICE whistles work.

The default position of the British gutter press is roughly around the level of Der Sturmer in 1938, and everyone has to politely tiptoe around this to avoid calling it what it is.

There are currently 8 political prisoners in the UK (on remand for alleged actions taken in solidarity with Palestine) on hunger strike. Most have been on strike for well over a month. Their health situation is critical. Here is a Toolkit actions you can take: shorturl.at/kBwT8

This is so disgusting.

Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population. How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich? They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

Today is the 4th anniversary of the worst ever tragedy in the Channel. At least 27 men, women & children drowned in the freezing water, & 4 more have never been found. Since then, neither we nor the French have done a thing to offer people in this situation with real solutions.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "we have a govt that is always talking about tough choices. Why are they always tough choices for working class people, for unemployed people, for disabled people? It's time to make tough choices for multimillionaires and billionaires. It is time to tax the rich"

Software utilities, I think, must be treated the same way: regulated (including price) and operated under oversight. Otherwise, they're just a robber-baron monopoly with a stranglehold on the economy. 4/5

When half the internet doesn't work because of a failure of a single vendor, that vendor is a utility, in the same way that power, water, and, back in the day, the phone companies, are/were utilities. 3/5

I remember being told that it was me that was the Hitlerian menace to civil liberties, and that these people were the antidote to my racist hatred. Chat, would we say this seems like that's turned out to be true?

Literal nazi shit

The takeaway IMO is aggro centrism is an astonishing historic disaster. Not only does it not work - it delivers very little for the public, doesn’t address core problems of the era and disillusions the public with democracy itself - but it actively aids the far right and prepares the way for fascism

Cryptpad will destroy the left

In Drogheda, fireworks thrown at an asylum accommodation centre resulted in a fire, with four children including in infant needing hospital care. 28 people resided in the hotel. In addition to arson, Garda is looking at attempted murder charges - which we had been calling for in the North

Yes, this is wingnuts and cranks all over: you can never appease them by walloping migrants or minorities or by kicking the poor. Every concession you give them, every group of people you sacrifice to please them, is just wasted. They don’t respect you or feel grateful, they reset and demand more.

Fingers crossed!!

I take back anything mean I've said about Chicago.

200+ TfL staff face sudden deportation thanks to govt’s cruel sudden changes to the Skilled Worker visa @rmtunion.bsky.social and @greenparty.org.uk stand with these workers We heard from workers unable to sleep at night not knowing if they'll be forced to leave Govt must shelve the changes

Pretty amazing that the main left party won’t speak up for anyone’s rights except fascist football hooligans and maybe poisonously reactionary newspaper columnists and billionaire crackpot authors - and that it is *extremely* belligerent in the defence of both - but here we now are.

Aw, that's nice, we're making the news in America with our open fascism

Lisa Nandy: "He's right to say that it is unprecedented in recent times that an entire group of away supporters have been entirely banned from a game" Unprecedented in recent times? In 2023 Legia Warsaw fans were banned from a game at Villa Park.

This is actually mad

Foiled yet again by my MP being Keir Starmer 😭

And surely just "abandoning tens of towns across the country" (and possibly a quarter of London???) can't be it

“Israel forbade people from celebrating the prisoners’ release on Monday, firing teargas at family members and journalists waiting near Ofer prison.” Some Palestinians have been held prisoner with little food for decades but it was this detail that really got me. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Scary to watch the Global Sumud Flotilla being intercepted by Israeli forces - we know how brutally the Israeli military has treated those on previous flotillas. The world is watching - the Foreign Secretary @yvettecooper-mp.bsky.social must urgently step up to ensure safety of UK citizens on board

Genuinely if you can’t tell the difference between a Tesco loyalty card and a mandatory digital ID being brought in explicitly to harden the border regime then maybe you shouldn’t be a journalist?

What's effectively happening here (in the British media at large, too) is the construction of "anti-racism" as somehow a "political alternative" to racism, rather than as a minimal civilisational standard, which in turn (further) vindicates racism as *also* an acceptable political position.

If successive Israeli governments always intended to impose their own final settlement on the Palestinians by violence, whether slowly or quickly, then what would we say successive British governments and media outlets have been doing for decades by insisting that the precise opposite was true?

Mahmood’s response is ‘completely disingenuous unless she is completely clueless about how the system is operating… the “intolerable” “last minute attempts to frustrate a removal” are a direct result of the system designed by the Home Office’ @sonial77.bsky.social freemovement.org.uk/home-office-...

Privatisation has meant profit for the few whilst more & more people struggle with the cost of living. I'm proud to be part of a Party calling this out & holding billionaires to account. Wealth tax now, nationalise utilities, workers rights. That's what we stand for. join.greenparty.org.uk

Mainstream media have played a massive role over many years in scapegoating migrants & strengthening the misconception that immigration is a top domestic problem for the UK. Young people are less likely to believe this partly because they don’t follow MSM.

You mean people in power don't have to acquiesce? Next you're going to tell me that there is an alternative and we can actually decide our future.

Hey guys just asking for a friend, is this... Political violence?

Working class communities have a long history of anti racist solidarity. Billionaires poison everything. Sucking up wealth, hollowing out communities, spreading poverty, division and hatred. It’s time to tax the rich and repair our society. inews.co.uk/news/racism-...

A woman & two children have died this week in the Channel. Mike Tapp is the worst of us. He has no humanity, in no way reflects this country's decency. We deserve better political choices than the rebranded Tories at Reform, the red Tories at Labour & the broken, well, Tories.

“MPs get suspended by the party like I did for voting against putting children into poverty. “But calling the world’s most infamous paedophile and child trafficker ‘your best pal’ among other comments, that’s ok? It stinks to high heaven.” Well said @ianbyrnemp.bsky.social #r4today

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.
