Calling out someone for being a coconut is far from an insult unless that person has a track record of campaigning for justice for Black and Brown people.
It’s a very useful adjective with a noble history.

BREAKING: activist and content creator Ani Says arrested AGAIN by Met

Ani Says is banned from Westminster. So, she was protesting in Southwark - when cops nicked her AGAIN after Zionists doxxed her.

This time over the word 'coconut'. Yes, THAT word AGAIN.

The real blockers are the water profiteers – and Labour won’t touch them because it’s in bed with the lobbyists.

Ex-MPs like Angela Smith went from defending water firms to working for them. Current ministers have backgrounds in water lobbying.

Who do you think you’re fooling?
Keir Starmer tweet: @Keir_Starmer • 1d National renewal means more homes, more jobs, and more money back in working people's pockets. But to get there, we need to take on the blockers…

Tees Valley mayor Lord (Ben) Houchen shared his economic wisdom at the Tory conference. The Conservative party, he said, must be the party of “sound money”.

What’s that Jeremy? Your private healthcare couldn’t save your life but the NHS could?

People need to think long and hard about voting for Reform, Farage openly says we need insurance based healthcare, but what about people who can’t afford it?

They die. It’s simple.

Crypto vs AI — which bubble bursts first? youtu.be/9oP9HPhB-VI?...

AI doesn’t think. Crypto isn’t money. Both claim to be revolutionary, but both are built on fantasy.

From the greed driving crypto to the fear driving AI, I argue that both reflect a deeper crisis in capitalism itself.

The current rhetoric from Labour is that they see themselves best placed to stop another SNP term of office as 19years of SNP governance has been enough.

Contrast that argument that since 1708 we have been dominated by unionist rule from Westminster that currently has NO majority within Holyrood.

You'd have heard about all the Israeli soldiers released, even by name, but I bet my last £1 you'd never have heard of a single Palestinian kidnapped by Starmer's Israeli handlers

Crazy that we hear about Train Drivers who get £60,000 a year for driving a train.

But we never hear about the boss of Tesco who gets £30,000 a day and doesn't even pay tax in the UK.

Or the £250m a day that the likes of Amazon, Vodafone, BP and Shell don't pay in tax.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social was asking questions on BBC Question Time and Fiona Bruce shut down the conversation saying no one was interested. The electorate need to know and the BBC is deflecting and obstructing at every turn, they are doing Reform’s work for them. No wonder they top the polls!

A UK presenter shouldn’t crow about an audience’s ignorance of Nathan Gill who took bribes from Kremlin agents & was a close ally of Farage . It shows they have failed to do their job . What next , telling us that Watergate was one of the lowest points in investigative journalism 🥺 ?

The Nathan Gill scandal should be huge news so why has the British media been mainly silent about it? (I think we know 🤔)
Here's Fiona Bruce shutting down any mention & acting like the audience aren't interested.
