I tried to read all the rapists names, and their sentences, but I became angry at the short sentences some of them have been given. I presume the judge was fair, but their crimes are disgusting/cruel, their excuses pathetic. Huge admiration for #giselepelicot and her "Shame must change sides".

How do we get real politicians, not people cosplaying the role? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/12... Our politicians think they are powerless in the face of markets, and now make it apparent that is the case. Our political malaise is the consequence. How do we change that?

Why has Rachel Reeves called in bankers to advise on the NHS? youtu.be/00MtdwnWfB0?... Rachel Reeves must think the only job a government has is to balance its books. There can be no other explanation for the insanity of calling in bankers to advise on the NHS.

Starmer speaking at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus: "Quite a bit of what goes on here can't necessarily be talked about all of the time... we can't necessarily tell the world what you're doing" RAF Akrotiri is the base from which the RAF flies missions to assist Israel in its genocide.

I’m struck too by how generous people who profess to be religious are when it comes to repairing a building. And how little is being raised right now to help fellow human beings subjected to genocide.

The SNP sent a message to Keir Starmer yesterday. www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/12... The SNP’s Scottish budget, delivered yesterday, was big on one issue. That was, it cared about people in need. Starmer has no story. His message is the opposite of the SNP’s. He does not care.

They must keep everyone poor to keep them all in work. And even when they no longer need people to work, they will need to keep them busy. Otherwise people will notice that Musk, Gates and Zuckerberg are 10 million times richer than them. But they don't do anything.

Israel’s plan is obviously to follow what the US done to Native Americans: kill as many as they need to, forcing them into smaller and smaller areas of land, until eventually the only viable solution is a single state with total control. And nobody can say they didn’t know.
