They’ve really scraped the bottom of the barrel to find some Nazis to lump in w Palestine Action. Has anyone ever heard of these groups? Have they ever done anything? I imagine some poor civil servant was tasked with dredging up some plausible Nazis to try and smuggle thru the PA ban….

It’s like we’re living through a black comedy or something. Things have become so absurdly stark. Even as Israel openly declares its genocidal intentions, its leaders are the subject of arrest warrants for war crimes and the whole country is being taken to court for genocide…

The legendary Suresh Grover was targeted by undercover police for campaigning for the family of Stephen Lawrence. Today Paestine Action are being classed as terrorists, but just like with Stephen Lawrence, one day everyone will have always been against this. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I hate the way the whole media discourse has instantly shifted to ‘did they or did they not destroy Iran’s nuclear capacity?’ Just making that the thing we’re all meant to be interested in. This is how the media build consent for war…

Oh surprise surprise. It looks like pro-Israel campaign groups are writing the government’s policy for them… Based on nothing at all. Seriously… the best they could come up with was “the vocabulary echoes that of Iran…”?

In a country where every potential Prime Minister has to faithfully swear that they would annihilate the world to be considered ‘electable’, perhaps we need to change the question?

This is from Wendy Webster's "Englishness and Empire" Kind of stunning the contrast with South Africa then and Israel now. Sharpeville killed 67 people as was considered so shocking and beyond the pale that the BBC compared it to Belsen.

2003 redux. An increasingly authoritarian Labour government follows a barely literate American yahooo President into an illegal war…. Let’s run that one again. It worked out so well last time!

Jesus Christ why are we stuck in simultaneously the dumbest and most vicious timeline? Tabloid headline today: “stick it up your bunker” And “terror threat to UK rises” Yeah no shit. I wonder why?

Suella Braverman’s anti-protest laws ruled unlawful. The gov dropped its case and admitted the laws were invalid. Kind of shameful the Labour gov was even defending them in the first place! www.libertyhumanrights.org.uk/issue/anti-p...

The fucking “communities minister” tipped off the racist mob that migrants had been moved to a leisure centre for their own safety. The mob then went and tried to burn down the leisure centre. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Good grief, it appears there's multiple 'protests' happening all over the North of Ireland this evening. Please watch out for your vulnerable neighbours and stay safe good people. These are not good people who are burning people out of their homes. They're loyalist bigoted racists.

Third night of fascists hunting foreigners in Northern Ireland and its spread to multiple locations. Families were reportedly moved to a leisure centre for their own safety. Mobs followed and set it on fire.

Far-right Republicans have spent 20 years or more stockpiling weapons bc they fantasised the federal government was going to overrule states’ rights and send in troops to disappear people to secret gulags. “Every accusation a confession”. Every time.

Victory to the rebels in LA! When white nationalists run the government, abduct people to overseas black sites from which they’ll never come back, send in troops against their own population… The community rises up in resistance.

As we see Keir Starmer adopting the rhetoric of Enoch Powell, live-streamed ethnic cleansing in Gaza and white nationalists using state power to attack racialised communities in America, Black Lives Matter is a call as important as it was 5 years ago.

It’s always the same - privatise the profits, socialise the losses. They spend decades siphoning wealth off-shore and then everyone else has to bail them out so they don’t run any risk.

Keir Starmer could've taken Thames Water back into public hands months ago. Now he's being blackmailed by the only remaining bidder willing to rescue the utility before it runs out of cash at the end of the month. Their terms: don't prosecute our crimes.

So Trump is sending in National Guard units into response to hardly insurrectionary protest against ICE raids Los Angeles. Seems like they purposefully want a showdown with a Democrat state to show they can just send in troops. Coming here soon folks! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Top news story of the day is civil war amongst the far-right over exactly how racist they should be. The further right of the far right are pushing to go more to the right and the not quite so far right of the far right want to stay no more far right then they already are. Have I got that right?
