We should be very worried about the way the control over our legal system is going.
Never has the British legal system
been more blatantly biased
than since it was set up
by the property owning class
to protect their interests

And we should have learned by now that when you think an option can’t be worse, it surely can and then some. Starver is paving the way for Deform, I can’t think why else he’s making the choices he is. Why?
Labour is turning Britain into an authoritarian state.

That’s bad enough now.

But imagine what a Nigel Farage government will build on all these authoritarian foundations.

This needs to be shared widely but the people who most need to read it already know and never did care.
"The 'ceasefire' is a diplomatic sham – a cover for the continuing extermination, displacement and erasure of the Palestinian people in Gaza and a distraction for the international public and the media."

No, there is no ceasefire in Gaza
Israel’s bombing of Gaza is not a ‘violation of the ceasefire'. It is a continuing genocide under diplomatic cover.

The inquiry says an earlier lockdown could have saved 23,000 lives in the first wave in England - and lockdown could have been avoided altogether with earlier interventions.

And David Attenborough said this 2 years ago. And in the 2 years since we’ve seen even more extreme weather and more records broken.
But I expect they had a nice chat about it in COP 30.
“This is the new extinction & we are half way through it. We are in terrible, terrible trouble & the longer we wait to do something about it the worse it is going to get.” Sir #DavidAttenborough

Maybe the biggest boost for our defence would be to stop supporting and participating in illegal wars and stop aligning ourselves with two of the most aggressive countries in the world.

No one dares or no one cares? But never mind, red poppies, wreaths, lest we forget, Remembrance Sunday blah blah. Whilst our solemn-faced political leaders dishonour those who fought and died.
30 years ago Spitting Image dared to broadcast the truth about Israel.

Don’t ever get used to hearing these accounts. This is not normal. There is no excuse for this. There is no excuse for the inaction from our world leaders. Words and condemnation have never been enough because these people - terrorists - are way beyond that, way beyond any appeal for morality.
Orthopedic surgeon Mark Perlmutter, who recently worked in Gaza, has shared a harrowing eyewitness account, that Israeli occupation soldiers buried two Palestinian children alive in a mass grave in the Nasser medical complex.

So should we feel sorry for the Israeli Occupation ‘soldiers’, in anticipation of them eventually discovering their sense of morality and thus being condemned to a lifetime of guilt, remorse and suicidal thoughts, all wrapped up in PTSD?
I’d find that hard.

Worth reading the entire thread. Sorry, I haven't sussed how to share that yet!
Sir Keir Starmer has been specifically named in a UN report for complicity in Israel's genocide.

The report states that the UK government played "a key role in military collaboration with Israel... a collective crime... with detailed knowledge and cooperation in the destruction of Gaza." 🧵

But it’s how the government and media like to frame the narrative so the protest marches are always pro Palestinian and never anti genocide.

The Trumpanyahu Administration Is Already Sabotaging The Ceasefire

I don’t know who first coined the saying that an Israeli ceasefire means “you cease and we fire,” but it proves reliably accurate time after time.

The onus for stopping a genocide is on the party committing the genocide. The onus is not on the victims of the genocide to end it by meeting certain conditions. This should not even need to be said.
