Trump calls Ukraine's Zelenskyy a 'dictator', 'modestly successful comedian', who should ‘move fast’ or lose country. Part of the strategy to force Ukraine to hand territory to Russia, mineral wealth to US. What next? Can't trust Trump as an ally. UK must rejoin EU. www.nbcnews.com/news/world/z...

So Reform UK MP Rupert Lowe has finally spelled out the quiet part in neon letters for those who hadn’t got it yet. This political moment isn’t about limiting protection to “genuine” refugees. It is about slamming the UK shut to people fleeing danger. There’s no pretending you didn’t know.

Just arrived in Paris for crucial talks. Europe’s security is at a turning point. Yes, it is about Ukraine—but it is also about us. We need an urgency mindset. We need a surge in defense. And we need both of them now.

Labour is upping the ante on anti-migrant politics just to learn that Farage & the Tories can always, always go further than them. It’s real people who are caught in the crossfire of politicians trying to outdo each other on toughness. How we treat people matters. #r4today

Scapegoating refugees has always been a deliberate ploy by governments to distract from their own domestic failures. Pandering to Reform UK will backfire — and vulnerable people will pay the price. End dangerous crossings by opening safe routes for fellow human beings instead.

Loise from the Outsiders project. She spent fours years sleeping rough in London with her baby, afraid of trying to get support due to the hostile environment. They lived on scraps of discarded food from bins, or which had been dropped on the ground.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

He's not f'ing wrong. Wherever we all sit politically, sometimes those differences need to be put aside. To sit idly by, with heels firmly entrenched in our respective 'corners'.. no, now is not that time. Without some cohesion, we're in trouble. Fuck this fascism shit. (Soz for the grump)
