Mussolini and Hitler and Franco all blamed immigrants to seize power.

The same old playbook is being used.

The Caerphilly result is what we need to see everywhere at the next election: people coordinating to vote tactically for parties which seek a fairer, kinder, greener country.
Pushing out both those who have betrayed our trust AND those who seek to exploit that betrayal.

The two Israelis killed today were killed when their bulldozer hit an unexploded bomb, which had been dropped by Israel.

The only side that killed, 44 people today, was Israel.

Please RT to get the message out, over all of the lies.
