There'll be lots of chats this week about how much the public want control of immigration, reduced numbers and integration. Fine. I don't think progressives have ever had the luxury of being blind to that. But that is not what this is about.

“The ambivalent masses that turn their blind eye to the hatred. Hoping the Jack boots that kick down the doors pass on by. Read all the history how immunity disappears so quickly. Safety in numbers for the lemmings that think they can fly” Written Nov 2024 joeadhemar.bandcamp.com/track/oxygen...

An absolute masterclass in how the UK media platforms and normalises far right politics. This is how Farage wins.

Killing off the university sector once and for all for a politcal battleground which Labour will never win… instead of reclassifying the immigration statistics as we always should have to reflect the fact the vast majority of foreign students leave the UK. Stupid. Unserious. Utterly self-defeating.

Given that just 4.25% of the world's population lives in the United States of America this might be the moment for the 95.75% of the rest of us to leave them to it. Many overseas markets that the UK could be focusing on for example - you know like the fucking enormous one on our doorstep.

Putin comes against Le Pen ruling. Authoritarians hates any possibility of legal restraint on their leadership. Trump will doubtless do the same. Journalists do not have to follow this framing. There is zero reason for them to start a report by questioning whether the ruling is democratic.

It’s weird how no journalist wants to point out that Heathrow is quite unique as a nations biggest airport, in that it is privately owned with the biggest shareholders being state sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia and Qatar. ‘Private’ equity is not interested in expensive resilience.

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

I had insomnia the night Russia invaded Ukraine and watched it unfold in real time. And tonight watching, here in London, that's what it feels like again. A dark, implacable malevolent takeover. That's accompanied by almost total silence amid so much noise. open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Make no mistake. Every politician, pundit & online grifter amplifying Musk's dangerous lies will be aware of this intervention by now. Make no mistake, they are choosing to mislead the public & politicise the suffering of victims in the shameful pursuit of political advantage, attention & clicks.
