The UK and Norway have signed a major new defence agreement to protect the North Atlantic from Russia.

Called the Lunna House Agreement, it will see a combined fleet of at least 13 warships, assisted by autonomous systems, hunt down Russian submarines to protect critical undersea infrastructure.

On the fifth day of Christmas my true love gave to me: FIVE GOLD RINGS, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree. Someone check my litter tray, I think I ate some rings by mistake...

It's definitely guillotine time, but what is the one thing that the weapons industry isn't mass producing?

Guillotines obviously

Maybe that is because guillotines are tools, not weapons

Maybe because the heads of the weapons industry want to stay in place

Oligarchs own corporations & governments

They use both to extract every last cent from the people who create the value, that would be you & I, useful people, & every cent from the only people who can create money, the government

That is all they can do, but still they rule us

Again, the fact that they are being allowed to even suggest that "keep trafficking" is the equivalent of "remain in the fight" under the laws of war is already a concession to the unhinged criminality of these strikes.
NEWS --> Tons of fresh detail on what video of the strike shows: Rep Adam Smith says two men are sitting on capsized boat, drugs aren't visible. Rationale officials gave for killing is they *may* have been able to keep trafficking.

"It's bad," Smith says.

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

The Flat Earthers are wrong.

There's the Wall. Pulsating, Twisting. Blinding.

What a surprise! Trump, according to Richard Marles is “completely supportive” of AUKUS,
We abandon our sovereignty, sign a one sided dud deal, subsidise the US and UK military industrial establishments, build public housing for US troops, antagonise China.
What a deal for Trump!

“In the Tony Starkest of contrasts, in the decade since 2015, the world’s ‘elite,’ the top 1%, have increased their hordes of hoarded wealth by US$33.9 trillion… Oxfam paints it in more coherent terms: enough money to ‘end global poverty 22 times over.’”

If they dispense with a flag it should be the one honouring our Colonial overlords. I have mostly Irish, Scottish and English genes, but you could throw in a small amount of Portuguese, German and European as well. I'd be happy just to honour Australia's First Nation, as the Colonials should have.
I despair!
“A NSW local council has voted to stop flying the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags and enforce a permission system for Welcomes to Country at public events.” Be illuminating to see what reactionary ideologues sit on that council? Absurd retrograde policy. #Indigenous flip.it/sN0YZE
