What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country? Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide. It undermines police and the law.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

This is state-sanctioned slaughter. Year after year, licences have allowed thousands of baby gannets to be killed in Scotland’s so-called ‘Guga Hunt’. Even in 2025, nearly 500 chicks were massacred under licence — paid for by taxpayers, justified as ‘tradition’, and carried out in secret.

BREAKING: Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, known as Mo Chara of Kneecap, addressed the public outside court after his case was dismissed. He had faced terror charges over allegedly displaying a Hezbollah flag at a concert. Full Address: https://f.mtr.cool/jcmediokuc  #VMNews | @newschambers.bsky.social

Cool cool. So perhaps you'd like to stand in front of a moving vehicle. Or is that kind of science magically settled somehow?

Just to be clear: - Paracetamol does not cause autism. - Sadiq Khan is not introducing Sharia law in the UK - We do not have a massive free speech problem here. - Britain is not on the verge of civil war. These are not controversial subjects or contested, they're just not true.

As Henry points out,a long piece about free speech in the UK that doesn’t mention the many, many people arrested for supporting Palestine Action and is entirely framed in right-wing talking points is a dereliction of journalism.

What on Earth is this? An "in depth" BBC article about free speech in the UK that only cites examples of right-wing/ 'anti-woke' speech being suppressed. How can you mention Lucy Connolly but completely ignore Palestine Action / Just Stop Oil? Gob-smacking. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A month ago, the famine in Gaza, deliberately created by the Israeli government, was officially confirmed by UN agencies. Since then, there has been an eerie silence in the media here, with far fewer reports than there were before. But it hasn't ended. On the contrary, it has intensified.

26 Police Officers were injured at today's riots but only 9 people were arrested. Compare that with the peaceful Palestine Action protest where 0 Police Officers were injured but nearly 900 people were arrested. The Government has got Law Enforcement ridiculously wrong.

Love a good Banksy!

Nigel Farage making his announcements at the Reform UK conference.

Angela Rayner accidentally pays less tax than she should have, resigns, and the media gives her hell. Nigel Farage deliberately pays less tax than he should have, and the media gives him a free pass. That, right there, is the problem.

What's that in my eye? As a teacher, I see how this works in our own school. The best aspect of my job.

Cooper in 2021: "If there arent the safe legal routes for family reunion we end up with more people being driven into the arms of criminal gangs" Cooper yesterday: "we are bringing forward new rules to temporarily suspend new applications under the existing family reunion route"

There is "a fundamental problem at the heart of our welfare state; namely the apparent assumption that poor people are not creative and have no potential for anything other than unskilled labour, because creative ability is supposedly reserved for those who enjoy wealth and privilege" Well said!

the juxtaposition of 'let's enjoy Paddington bear!' and 'let's deport human migrants to the Taliban!' is too perfect

BBC Question Time appearances Zarah Sultana 0 Jeremy Corbyn 1 Mick Lynch 1 - Nigel Farage 38 Very, very biased selection, even more than Fiona Bruce.

"We must join with him, Gandalf. We must join with Sauron."

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

Vandalise with graffiti, no punishment. Wear a T-Shirt they don't like, banned.

If you don't love Nigel Farage give this a Like. If you hate him, give it a RT.

Enter a parallel universe where Lucy Connolly is a Bradford-based Muslim man called Usman Farooq who has tweeted that people should "set fire to all the f*cking churches full of the bastards", and the Telegraph would call him a terrorist who should be locked up immediately.

On Sunday evening, Robert Jenrick proudly attended a xenophobic rally in Epping involving Callum Barker of neo-Nazi group Homeland. Also in attendance: dedicated follower of fascism, Eddy Butler (BNP, Combat 18, For Britain) Butler later posted: “At the Bell Hotel riding shotgun for Robert Jenrick"

Just one of the many reasons I #BackZack

It’s disgraceful that stag hunts still occur. It's cruel, outdated, and inhumane. Wildlife deserves respect, not pursuit for sport. End this brutal tradition. Share if you agree

Absolutely spot on Zack. Too many are hoarding money and hiding it away In assets, offshore accounts .... The economy only works if the money goes in as well as out. Its not immigrants, unemployed, disabled that have fucked things up.

Watch this politician tell an Israeli ambassador straight to her lying face what virtually the whole world now feels. At least anyone with a conscience. Brilliant.

Israel has a hideously chilling strategy. They want the destruction of the Palestinian people to be a done deal - like indigenous people in the US or Australia. A brutal wake-up call from the ever-brilliant @omarbaddar.bsky.social

“In opposition, Labour vowed to introduce a right to roam. In govt, it U-turned on this promise… its plan to create 9 new ‘river walks’ is a paltry compensation.” Excellent Guardian leader on why we need a right of access to all rivers @righttoroam.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ian Hislop, "It is pretty ludicrous we have got to a state where a man is arrested for carrying a joke? I mean, freedom of expression, freedom of speech, all those things we claim to be interested in?" Shame on Labour this isn't the change any of us wanted after 14 years of Conservative chaos

Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.

The world's most famous medical NGO concludes Israel is committing genocide. It joins a consensus of genocide scholars, including in Israel, and NGOs like Amnesty International. No politician or journalist can claim "I did not know at the time!" to evade future justice.

The documentary that the BBC refused to air showing the targeting, detainment and torture of medics in Gaza by Israeli authorities was broadcast by Channel 4 last night. Amnesty International researcher, Budour Hassan, explains the use of secret sites by the Israeli authorities.

America is the only country in the world that could bring in fascism and end up with worse trains

I know I’m an old fat bastard but 1975 are fucking awful

How awesome

Britain must stay out of this insane war. We should provide no assistance whatsoever to the US or Israel, in any form. inews.co.uk/opinion/brit...

Who Governs? JP Morgan threatened to quit UK over mooted tax rise for banks. CEO met Reeves/Starmer, tax didn't rise. Govt cut benefits, dept budgets; real tax rises for others. Corporations dodge taxes, bully govts and govern. Curbing their power is essential for any form of democracy.

Today I joined Right to Roam and 400 people today in a mass swim trespass at Kinder Reservoir in the Peak District. The event was in commemoration of the anniversary of the Kinder Scout Mass Trespass, but with a very modern & pressing issue of access.

Couldn't go to Kinder for the @righttoroam.bsky.social mass trespass swim, but had our own little protest swim in the Jubilee River. Access to inland waters has so many benefits and we should have the #RightToSwim

At least 80 Labour MPs are at risk of losing their majorities over proposed welfare cuts, according to data shared between Labour MPs who are warning the government that the changes “pose a real electoral risk” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
