The March to Gaza, bringing together supporters of a free Palestine from Algeria, Tunisia, Libya & Egypt, is underway. #LandConvoy #BreakTheGazaSiege #IzrahellIsATerr0r1stState

"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, we have been intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel."

14 years of Tory austerity. Labour doubling down. It's time for different choices. #BackZack

The group of Afrikaners—descendants of Dutch and German settler colonizers of South Africa—appeared INDISTINGUISHABLE from most WELL-FED white denizens of Idaho, North Carolina, or Iowa, the very same states where they are slated to be resettled. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Who knew that a shopkeeper, a maths teacher, a housing rights pioneer and (eventually) TEFL teacher*, a nuclear physicist and a monumental mason could do so much damage to society, eh? 👇👇👇

#Corbyn #Anti-Semitism #Starmer #McSweeney 'McSweeney spent 100s of 000s £s commissioning polling how to persuade the Party membership, post-Corbyn, to vote for Starmer, who stood on a continuity ticket & subsequently broke every pledge made to the membership' www.declassifieduk.org/morgan-mcswe...

Parliament has a moral and ethical obligation to remove Starmer. In fact, its shocking this hasnt happened yet. The World has witnessed a livestreamed genocide for more than 1.5 years and Starmer is blatantly complicit.

We don't need Priti Patel to condemn Israel, she is an irrelevant scumbag. What we do need is David Lammy to stop sending Israel any weapons.

Gary Lineker, the thinking man’s footballer - a legend and a jolly decent human being.

14,000 babies are on the verge of death. They are being purposefully starved by Israel. This is genocide. SanctionsNow! SanctionsNow! SanctionsNow! SanctionsNow! SanctionsNow! SanctionsNow! SanctionsNow!

"When you heard that phrase, 'an island of strangers', how did you feel?" Zarah Sultana: "I was shocked. A Labour prime minister literally taking a quote from the Rivers of Blood speech which Enoch Powell delivered in my hometown of Birmingham. I couldn't actually believe it"

You may laugh, but nothing surprises me anymore…

Some excellent and insightful, if scary, analysis here of the chaos we're seeing in the US. The really scary thing is it's not just about Trump. A long read, but well worth it. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Every word of this.

Parliament needs to remove Starmer. Shocking that this hasnt happened yet. He is blatantly complicit in the most well documented genocide in history.

A wealth tax of 2% on individuals who own assets worth more than £10 million would affect 0.04% of the UK population and would raise £24 billion a year. And yet this. From a Labour government. I despair.

This is a Hitler-screaming-in-his-bunker-at-generals level of lunacy

The so-called Special Relationship is over.

Truss now turning up the Deluded dial to eleven. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/liz-tr...

It’s a conundrum. 🤷‍♂️

How about less billionaires? And instead more schools, hospitals and council houses? @greenparty.org.uk will always stand with the 99%. 👇🏼

The US is on the path to civil war or revolution. Capitalism was allowed to be unrestrained, went too far and the concentration of wealth and power has become too extreme. The US gov is now just an organized crime racket controlled by a small group of treasonous Zionist billionaires.
