So Badenoch & Starmer are in agreement that HM Government can disregard any @echr.coe.int rulings if it doesn’t like said rulings… despite the ECHR being binding on the 46 member states of the Council of Europe (of which we are one). Spiffing. Let’s become a pariah state like Israel & Trump’s USA.

I hope Ukrainians continue to be given our support and so I worry about those other considerations.

4017xan.bsky.social•9 days ago

MPs treat the cruel fate of the Palestinians with such casual, cursory disregard. Palestinians are unimportant people, but every human I love is an equally unimportant person. Other considerations outweigh the cruel sufferings of Palestinians now, if we fare better that’s our luck. Now.

Labour has lost its way. I. Am. Devastated !

jencanso.bsky.social•10 days ago

He's just a piss stain in the snow, temporary and transient. The thaw will come and then he'll be gone. There'll be no trace of him because he's made of nothing.

wildecard.bsky.social•10 days ago

Question now turns to how do/can we remove him and his cronies?

jymbob.bsky.social•10 days ago

Proportional representation/STV at the ballot box, then we won't get stuck choosing the lesser of two evils

wildecard.bsky.social•10 days ago

Thats the goal for sure, how to get there is the trickier part. Its mad to think that an actual revolution feels more likely than a simple change to the voting system.

xather.bsky.social•10 days ago

Not just how to remove him, but to also ensure the likes of Reform don't get and carry on business as usual (or as I suspect somehow make it worse, like Labour did after getting into power)

I used to be a Labour member, supported them for fifty years. Now, I wouldn't touch them with your barge-pole, let alone mine.

drmhigginson.bsky.social•10 days ago

It's actually so saddening how often I've heard this of late. Justified, totally, but sad nonetheless.

chrisbirder.bsky.social•10 days ago

Sad, absolutely.

Britain don’t want Palestinians for exactly the same reason Israel, Egypt & Jordan don’t want them. They don’t know whether they are Hamas or not.

hikmah786.bsky.social•6 days ago

@suelli.bsky.social real support for Hamas by Netanyahu/Israel, who supported Hamas for decades to split Palestinians and deter a Palestinian state.

Your support matters! A donation or a repost of my pinned post could mean the world.

The rage I am feeling right now, is through the roof. If I saw keir, I seriously worry what I would do to him.

Lets play Bing-No!

well you see we're paying for the Israeli ones

montrose.bsky.social•9 days ago

This is what he's covering up

A finance minister brushing up her CV on purpose

colinbags.bsky.social•8 days ago

He can’t even bring himself to recognise the genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza. Seems to have so little empathy for innocent Palestinian women and children. Like he is in some zionist cult.

julianle.bsky.social•10 days ago

Christ. Or rather, not Christ.

Not least because the bombs used passed largely through British millitary bases in Cyprus, and Britain has been conducting nearly half the reconnaissance flights to target where they are dropped.

globalinterest.bsky.social•10 days ago

Sickening, and I admit I thought he'd be an improvement on Boris Johnson.

theohopkins.bsky.social•10 days ago

Ukrainians are 'people like me'.
Palestinians are not 'people like me'.

phil-brighton.bsky.social•10 days ago

Agreed - we need to respond to people's needs wherever they are from.

floodboy.bsky.social•10 days ago

The mans an absolute disgrace.

branchenergy.bsky.social•9 days ago

Thank you for speaking out Robin. ❤️✊🏼🍉🇵🇸

pauliom.bsky.social•10 days ago

Ukraine should market how well suited the coast would be for a new Fart Towers. That's the only variable here.

stillstroppy.bsky.social•10 days ago

I’m sorry to have to say this but I cannot fucking stand him. I had 0 expectations of this government making anything better and so it is. If I wanted a bunch of racist, anti immigrant, benefit claimant hating, climate crisis ignoring, Trump humpers I’d be spoilt for choice. Fuck the lot of them.

books-running.bsky.social•10 days ago

Absolutely a vile person Starmer is, he is not Labour, knew he was a Tory, he can't keep a pledge/promise. Showing he is supporting Israel/US

wohyeahwohyeah.bsky.social•10 days ago

Not Labour? You're kidding, right? They always been like this with immigration. It's this bizarre ugly blind spot they have.

pepe-mccormack.bsky.social•9 days ago

Obviously, skin color doesn’t play a part in this decision; especially with the scandal currently developing involving white English girls in the front page of every rag.
