Who do we think we are? Getting involved in US wars around the globe.Promising to put troops into Ukraine. We’re a tiny island off the coast of Europe. My foreign policy would be on Norway or Netherlands, when they get involved I’d be standing next to them.

Breaking News | An Israeli sniper has shot and killed a 15-year old child in central Gaza's Al-Buraij Camp. The boy was reportedly trying to inspect his family home in an area from which the Israeli military recently withdrew.

Senator Chuck Schumer sums it up

The Prime Minister shouldn’t be engaging — let alone reviewing arms sales — with someone that has an active ICC arrest warrant for war crimes.

Why not release the Epstein files?

When are the international press going back into Gaza to report on what’s been going on?

This turns up at a bloody Food Bank and you have crowds of plebs cheering?

The French Human Rights League is asking the public to join them in a mass exodus of X on January 20 www.euronews.com/next/2025/01...

Hmmmmm... any thoughts?

Happy birthday & best wishes in retirement to the legend that is Mick Lynch! As @rmtunion.bsky.social General Secretary, he’s been bold, principled & inspiring — a true champion for his members & the working class. Mick’s leadership strengthened the union movement & he’ll be sorely missed.

Trump, Musk and Zuckerberg have declared war on facts and truth. The pushback must start now @emilybell.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

A teeny weeny 2% tax on Britain’s super rich would raise £24 billion. Think of all the good we could with a sum like that - and it would only ever so slightly make the tax system more fair - plenty of room for improvement after that.

Jean-Marie Le Pen, the French far right leader, died today. If you wonder how many French people feel about that, these are the scenes of celebration on the streets of Paris this evening. One sign reads “The dirty racist is dead”. (🎥 Luc Auffret)

You will notice that Elon Musk never challenges anyone that might actually harm him. Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Israel... Never says a word.

Absolutely this from Ed Davey 👏

A brilliant podcast that explains how private companies are directly involved in Ukraine and Gaza via Starlink (Musk) and Planatir Tech. This is proper scary stuff. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Elon Musk has changed his X profile. His avatar is now Pepe the Frog, a mascot adopted by white supremacists. His name is a Latinisation of “Kek”, a phrase used by neo-Nazis. Musk has also backed AfD in Germany, the political home for racists. The man is telling us explicitly what he’s about.

Good morning

Essentials like electricity and water should be free. Instead due to the 'miracle' of Capitalism they get more expensive every year, and all that money is stolen to tax havens.

Can someone explain to me how an adjudicated rapist and a 4-time convicted felon can even take the oath?

Time for the UK to do the same.

Denmark has a new king, the King and Queen get approximately $500,000 from the Danish Government a year, and the whole family is worth $40m. In the UK King Charles gets $150,000,000 a year and his family is worth $25bn. We need to be more like Denmark.

On this day 2,024 years ago, a man who was not the son of God was not born.

‘Dead bodies, blood and body parts all over’. At least eight Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike on the Musa bin Nusair School in Gaza City, where forcibly displaced Palestinians were sheltering. 🔴 LIVE updates ⤵️

The suspect in the killing of 5 people at a Christmas market in Germany was an online supporter of Elon Musk & the AFD, a Far Right, pro-Kremlin political party. Musk, at the heart of the Trump administration, has endorsed the AFD. Are we grasping the gravity of the current situation?

Richard Tice, whose Reform Party may be about to be funded by Elon Musk, condemning interference in British politics by foreign billionaires

We desperately need to find a way to remove money from elections.

Elon Musk is becoming a one-man rogue state – it’s time we reined him He has bankrolled elections, stoked riots and ignored laws. We mustn’t make the mistake of playing nice with the world’s richest bully www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ofwat/Ofgem are run by ex-executives from their respective industries, they are friends with the people they are 'regulating' and they use their inside knowledge to invest Like if they are going to handout huge bill increases they buy up stock before Worse than useless, corrupt

This morning I stood with Laila Soueif — Alaa Abd el-Fattah’s mother — outside the Foreign Office on her 81st day of hunger strike. Laila’s life is at risk, and the fight to free Alaa has never been more urgent. His future is in David Lammy’s hands. #FreeAlaa

NEW: Israel responsible for the crime of extermination & acts of genocide. Human Rights Watch has today published its 179-page report in Israel’s actions in #Gaza. It is based on interviews, analysis of photos/documents & data on access to essential ingredients for life. The verdict is damning. 👇

Gisele Pelicot will forever be the face of dignity and resilience. Her bravery is truly remarkable — and she has empowered millions of women around the world. Today, we stand with all survivors of sexual violence and against the systems that intimidate them into silence.

Despite ICC arrest warrants & the ICJ's interim ruling, the UK continues to export components for F-35 jets, facilitates arms deliveries via RAF Akrotiri & conducts daily surveillance flights over Gaza. The UK is not a passive bystander to genocide. It is an active participant.

Dear MAGA:

The government could have finally brought Royal Mail into public ownership. It sold it to a Czech billionaire instead. We are being ripped off. It’s time to put Royal Mail back where it belongs: in public hands. bbc.in/49BZTmP

Conservative Baroness Catherine Meyer called Lord Dholakia ‘Lord Poppadom’ twice. She might get a 3 week suspension from the Lords. RP if this racist should be kicked out instantly racists shouldn't be making our laws.

Stop selling arms to Israel then.
