More misogyny aimed at Greta Thunberg. Anyone who thinks she’d speak out for any reason other than moral conviction has no clue how women with platforms are treated- even if they silently comply. Netanyahu’s massacre is globally enabled. So she is incredibly brave to this.

Please listen to the UN General Secretary.

"The former prime minister of Israel Ehud Olmert has said Israel is committing war crimes in Gaza" 👏👏👏 Imagine an ex-PM of Israel having to say that before our own government acknowledges it. Shocking.

The EU's top diplomat, Kaja Kallas, has said that "Israeli strikes in Gaza go beyond what is necessary to fight Hamas" as the death toll there continues to mount. An understatement but at least movement. Need to ramp it up now. Cancel EU-Israel association agreement and impose sanctions on Israel.

“Strong governments listen to the public and their MPs who are telling them they are making grave mistakes...Strong governments admit mistakes and change” Labour MP Emma Lewel www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Labour has to move left of faces a wipe out on the scale the Tories are already suffering. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/05...

Labour MPs must now put pressure on Government to rethink the savage and needlessly brutal welfare cuts being proposed by Liz Kendall. We know (with winter fuel) that concerns about PIP is a vote loser and quite rightly so. It's not what they were delivered a huge majority for in 2024 to push thru.

Labour losing Runcorn was avoidable and as much a result of our party’s failures as Reform’s rise. Now, we need to learn the right lessons, not double down on the same mistakes. Cutting disability benefits and scrapping the Winter Fuel Allowance made voters abandon us. [1/3]

Labour needs several million buckets of ice-cold water poured over their head and the nation's church bells ringing in unison as a very loud wake-up call. Hopefully, this is it. People voted for hope and change and vision not Reform lite and the same old Tory shite.

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

We’re pleased to report the arrival of Comic World, a new Local Comic Shop in Scarborough, Yorkshire.

I’m sure many of you will have fond memories of the LP version of #doctorwho - Genesis of the Daleks. It has a great single central cliffhanger that isn’t one of the TV cliffhangers. Here it is rebuilt in video. You’ll need your sound on.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

It’s time Labour saved the children www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/04... Child poverty in the UK is getting worse, and Labour is doing nothing to tackle the issue. No wonder its support is collapsing. They do not deserve to be in government if they don't use power to help those in need.

This is what happens when people speak up.

We take tariffs on our beautiful Heard Island very seriously. We will be consulting all mammals and flightless birds and will make an announcement in the near future detailing our response. #heardisland #tariff #mcdonaldisland #trumptariff

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

Xavier transitioned and became Vivian Jenna Wilson. She is alive and well and lives in Japan. No loving parent would ever write such a disgusting thing as this, and it speaks volumes.

“There is this terrible misconception that disabled people just take, but actually by taking from us, you prevent us from being able to give – we want to be able to participate in life equally the same as anyone else, and that includes going to work.” Disability campaigner Tanni Gray-Thompson

A depressing day. You only have to read what so many charities representing so many different vulnerable people say to know this was a grim day. Shameful stuff. www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpo...

"I ask myself how will people like me and my son survive?" A single parent tells the Big Issue about their experience claiming disability benefits, after Labour revealed plans for cuts worth up to £5bn 💷 buff.ly/aNYscON

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Justin Trudeau Prime Minister of Canada 👏

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

👑 Jane Fonda with a mic drop "Empathy is not weak or "woke." And, by the way, "woke" just means you give a damn about other people."

Completely agree with this a million times @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

REPOST if you stand with AOC!

Could someone out there write a definitive guide on convenient alternatives to using Amazon.com for goods and books and whatnot? Asking for some folks who don’t want to see democracy die in darkness.

Why is the richest man in the world cutting cancer research?

Just looking at my bottle of Tagrisso, a cancer drug that literally *reduced death by half* in people like me. The product of intense clinical trials and meticulous science. The trials were supported by the National Cancer Institute, a part of NIH.

Rep. Jamie Raskin to workers at the CFPB: "If you were saving billions of dollars right now for the plutocrats, and the autocrats, and the theocrats, the dictators, and the bullies, and the rip-off artists, they'd be putting you on the board of the Kennedy Center tonight." Spot on! 🔥

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.
