If you can ignore the murder of children in order to agree a deal to sell weapons to an evil regime, then you do not deserve to be Prime Minister of this or any other country. In fact, you don't deserve your liberty.

Decades later, Michael Parenti’s "Inventing Reality" remains one of the best-written critiques of mainstream media. It’s a masterclass in how news is shaped to serve power. A must-read for anyone seeking the clarity to cut through the mainstream media’s manufactured narratives.

It is the ultimate expression of Western hubris to frame the legal guardrails designed to prevent the collapse of civilization as "bureaucratic red tape" that’s unfairly handicapping our righteous intentions.

After firing thousands of DOT workers, the Trump admin is replacing career experts with AI to draft safety laws in minutes. It’s a deliberate hollowing out of the state to remove the experts who actually hold industry accountable. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Trump’s tariffs aren't being paid by foreign countries—they are a $200B tax hike on the working class. A new study shows Americans are footing 96% of the bill, as corporations protect their profits by passing every cent of the cost down to consumers. time.com/7353475/trum...

Larry Ellison’s data-mining is the backbone of modern state surveillance. This isn't just "tech"—it’s a billionaire-funded system designed to eliminate privacy and monitor the public for profit. www.levernews.com/larry-elliso...

Removing Maduro was just the first step. Now, US oil companies are angling for a total restructure of the Venezuelan state to ensure that human rights and labor laws never get in the way of extraction. This is what modern-day colonialism looks like. populareducationblog.substack.com/p/what-oil-e...

There is no justification for extra judicial killings nor for throwing a woman to the ground either. This force is unnecessary! youtu.be/aiyGlH-b7mw?...

What other regime used children as bait? Israel!!! youtube.com/post/UgkxvLX...

There needs to be massive class action litigation against every company that has been profiting off war crimes, especially Israel's genocide in Gaza.

This was the time for international law and human rights act to move to the fore and sanction/arrest the worst war criminals and despots across the world. Instead the laws floundered and lost themselves in a sea of dirty politics, bullying and firing. The war criminals remain free to commit crimes.

This week's column is about something that's arguably more important than anything in the news, crucial as some of the other issues are. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If the Greens defeat Farage in Gorton and Denton, it'll change politics forever. I think that's worth donating a few quid to, don't you? donatetothe.greenparty.org.uk/parliamentar...

A report from @jrf-uk.bsky.social shows UK poverty is 'deeper and more damaging than any point in last 30 years' - citing the government's lack of urgency and direction. Poverty is a political choice - Labour have chosen austerity over addressing inequality by taxing extreme wealth fairly.

Headlines say oil companies are hesitant about Venezuela. After a White House meeting, oil executives made clear before investing they’re demanding legal and economic changes first. This article breaks down what’s being asked for behind the scenes. populareducationblog.substack.com/p/what-oil-e...

In news from the occupied West Bank, Al Jazeera reports Israeli soldiers are forcing Palestinians to evacuate a number of buildings, including schools and kindergartens, in the town of Kafr Aqab amid escalating Israeli raids across the West Bank.

More war crimes on the way.

BBC News why are you failing to report on the mass protests against ICE across the US that are taking place right now? Instead you reported vile nonsense from Trump. There is a huge peaceful outpouring of protest, but you have nothing on your 10 o’clock news. Not good enough" via Martin Illingworth

In a statement on Sunday, Alex Pretti's parents asked for the truth to come out, adding: "The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting."

The same Democrats defending ICE, defended the genocide in Gaza. They scream AIPAC money. Vote them out.

The murder of civilians in the US is a direct result of Trump’s decisions. This makes him complicit in the killings of all those civilians on the streets of US cities or the detention centres. He should be arrested and charged accordingly along with ICE thugs!

Fuck Netanyahu the war criminal. The world can see Kushner and you trying to make a blood soaked land into resorts. How ghoulish.

On Holocaust Memorial Day we remember those murdered during the Holocaust and all genocides. #HMD2026 #HolocaustMemorialDay

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.
