UK government hypocrites? Surely not! Never forget, THIS #Labour government backs #Israel #Genocide in #Gaza.

Unconditional basic income would be a compassionate system. No more conditions. No more tests. Provide a base amount of income to all as a foundational floor to make sure no one ever goes without what they need to simply stay alive.

So #Israel is now shooting starving people trying to get the food that #Israel is holding back? Never again they said. Ah. No. I didn’t mean for thee, no … just for me. Dozens injured by Israeli gunfire as crowds overwhelmed Gaza aid site www.bbc.com/news/article...

You don't need to be a prophet. Images like this - of starved Palestinians hammed into fenced cages by Israel - will be remembered for generations as hideous evidence of a terrible crime. And history will remember not just those who cheered it on, but those who stayed silent.

Can you sign this too? #Israel #Genocide #Gaza secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/...

Millions in the UK are one pay day from disaster youtu.be/6qm7lVRhgZg?... The UK is a country of massive wealth inequality, with all the stress landing on those the wealthy think to be the undeserving poor, which is most of us.

If the hard and far right need to blame anyone for “two-tier” policing, they need only look to themselves and the invidious position in which they’ve put officers. My latest, on Liverpool open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

Israelis protesting outside the foreign office in London in support of steps that the UK has taken against Israel over the Gaza war and calling for more. Chanting: “Starmer, Lammy pick a side: human rights or genocide” , “war planes, no! Sanctions, yes!”, “Israelis say: stop the genocide today”

That Air Strike was carried out by F35 bombers, but at least we’re not ”disrupting supply chains” eh, David Lammy?

Hey kids! Don't eat a diet made up entirely of beef, salt, and water... it does this to your critical faculties

UK public purse to make £10bn loss from £45bn bailout of NatWest bank in 2008. Govt selling last of its shares, could have used it to fund SME/infrastructure investment. Boss who crashed the bank gets £600k a year pension. Bailouts for the City, benefit cuts for the poor.

Abolish, scrap, cut, reverse. Reform UK builds nothing.

Because chess is also a symbol — a relic of a world in which Afghan, Persian, Arab, Jewish, and European minds shared more than they fought. The board is a meeting place. Its language is not tribal. Its discipline is not sectarian. csesznekymiklos.substack.com/p/the-silenc...

Dan Neidle has, righteously, been calling out tax lawyers who enrich themselves - and impoverish the public purse - giving bad tax advice. He's now being threatened with defamation proceedings - so we're backing him. goodlawproject.org/dan-neidle-i...
