“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Well I haven't seen any of the films in the Bafta best actor category but I watched Lars and the Real Girl at the weekend and Ryan Gosling was outstanding.

Victoria Derbyshire replaced Laura Kuenssberg on her own show and she was 1000x... infinitely better. RT if it is time to replace the Laura Kuenssberg show with the Victoria Derbyshire show.

From Greenland to Canada to Mexico to Gaza to Ukraine to Germany to Europe, Donald Trump AKA Elon Musk thinks he's Emperor of the world rather than the worst president of the USA ever, by a country mile!

I have written to Alex Burghart adding my own concerns about how this USA govmnt can't be trusted to abide by any of the usual norms of diplomacy/decency. This makes it even clearer that we need to forget about the "special relationship" which no longer exists and concentrate our loyalties on Europe

This all sounds a bit Ross Ulbricht Silk Road. How many years in prison did he get (until the felon pardoned him)?

Was shocked to hear on the news this morning that Trump has a 51% approval rating, up 10 points. I am flabbergasted! Do Americans not see what he and Musk are doing to the country. I honestly can't wrap my head around the stupidity. THEY ARE STEALING YOUR MONEY AND YOUR RIGHTS!

I am sure near the start of the conflict I saw a glossy brochure by an Israeli real estate company with their plans for a fabulous complex of beach front properties and hotels. This has been the plan all along.

"The Times published a story under the headline “More parents lying to get their children into top UK state schools after VAT hike”. This claimed to be based on an opinion poll... But the headline and the following article radically misrepresented the findings." The Times has now become trash.
