On the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, everything that led to the Holocaust is in danger of being forgotten. The Nazis channeled the demands of oligarchs, scapegoated minorities and replaced democracy with a new imperium. Those politics are returning. #NeverForget #NeverAgain

Very good interview from Rachel Maddow with Bishop Budde. What grace, intelligence and courage this woman has.

Three women were murdered, yet this headline names their father instead of CAROL, HANNAH and LOUISE HUNT, while reducing their killer to a 'control freak’, thus trivialising coercive control and shielding 'ordinary' men from accountability. Media must do better.

Reform MP James McMurdock, who claimed earlier this year he was jailed in 2006 for “pushing” his former partner, was in fact sentenced for “kicking the victim around four times,” according to court documents obtained by The Times. Men who beat women do NOT deserve a place in our Parliament.
