What's the outcome that terrifies Labour most in the Gorton by-election?

Reform winning?

Nope. It's the Greens they're most worried about.

They'd prefer Reform to win, rather than the Greens.

Reminder: ‘woke’ is a term created by Black Americans, referring to being awake to injustice.

Do you see it yet? Are you awake?

Tamir Rice
Breonna Taylor
Trayvon Martin
George Floyd
Michael Brown
Philando Castile

So many more names. This pain is not new to Black America.

Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator.

The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him.

It's time for a massive general strike across the country.

When our political leaders fund the bombs that shred the bodies of children in Gaza, they are letting us know that they are ok with funding the agency that killed Renee Good, Alex Pretti, and Keith Porter.

It’s moral decay.

There is no need for the American people to wait until the midterms to demand better of their government, Congress has the power to stop all of this right now.

Demand them to dismantle ICE.

Yes, demand it of Republicans, too.

It’s not a training issue, it’s not a mask issue, it’s not a camera issue. Democrats cannot half-step ICE policy. Or any other policy.

Serve the people.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

ICE is murdering people. And they will only murder more.

RIP Alex Pretti. Abolish ICE.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.

This is personal — to every one of us.

We are seeing incredible acts of solidarity today in Minnesota and across the country.

The next days and months and years will require this from us — and demand our courage. Be prepared.

The battle against fascism was always a general strike, not partisan gerrymandering.

Power to the people, not whoever politicians decide gets a voice.

A man with an autoimmune disease had to marry his best friend to have health insurance.

This isn't the first time this has happened.

Marriages and delayed divorces are often tied to health care access.

Our system is broken - we need Medicare For All.

Iranian authorities have unleashed an unprecedented, deadly crackdown to crush protests and cut all internet access to conceal their crimes.

Call on the international community to urgently act to end further massacres of protesters in Iran.

This is authoritarianism, plain and simple.

The Trump administration is targeting states that didn’t vote for him — including my home state of Vermont.

Using federal power to punish political opponents is anti-democratic and blatantly illegal.
