Huge respect to Rahman Lowe for their success in the Employment Appeals Tribunal on Dr David Miller's case where the appeal by Bristol University was dismissed. It essentially underlines that anti-Zionism is a genuine protected belief under the Equality Act 2010. @tuc.org.uk @cwunews.bsky.social

haven't posted on Arsenal for a while as this has been such a topsy turvy season I felt as though every time I posted something title presumptuous, it came back to bite me in the Arsenal... Keep the faith Gooners - two games to go. Have to say I really dislike some of our fickle fanbase.
@wesstreeting.bsky.social was so lucky to win his Ilford North seat; it looks as though he will be the one to emerge as the main 'Blairite' contender to stop the party swinging to the left. Here at @bandofla.bsky.social we predict a two-way leadership race between Wes and @andyburnham.bsky.social

true though... and some people fall for it all the time whenever their is a financial squeeze
ICE style enforcement gangs. Mass deportation. Removal of our human rights framework. Scrapping of the Equality Act. By racist, misogynistic, disability-sceptic, transphobic authoritarians and simpletons. Nothing could be more threatening to us all. It’s shameful that they hope it’s a vote winner.
● Typical cost of a Business Class flight to Maldives is £3,100 - £3,200+ return ● 2 of those minimum so £6,400+ ● Accommodation minimum of £250-£350 per night. Farage demands finer things in life though so can exceed £1,000 ● Gross household average salary Gorton & Denton £653 per week
@arsenal-family.bsky.social @statesidegooners.bsky.social We did. Seriously though some of our fans really annoy me... the fickledom shown after the last game is like a bi-polar for football fans. Some were even calling for Mikel's head. Just get behind the team. #COYG

But it's not "a cheap stunt." Farage won't have flown economy, or alone and if there was "an aid boat" that will have cost money too. It's expensive flying to the Maldives. Where did he stay? How long is he staying? How much did it cost? Who picked up the tab? www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.
If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.
This might be the funniest thing all week 😂 GBNEWS poll goes rogue and suddenly these two thickos double-checking reality. “Have we got that the right way round?” Afraid so 😆 #UKMedia
Big love to the LGBTA+ community this LGBTQ+ History Month. We celebrate, we remember and we honour the trailblazers.
STINKY TORIES STINK IN REFORM UK NOW! Tory Losers jump to Farage’s party They had 14 years – they failed… now these stinkers have reappeared to WRECK BRITAIN AGAIN!
I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.
If Matthew Goodwin is the very best Reform can muster for an eminently winnable by-election, the unfeasibly warm welcomes for the worst of Johnson & Truss's flotsam & jetsam suddenly make much more sense.
Lovely hatchet job on the monstrosity that is Suella Braverman. Crace covers it all; her dishonesty, disloyalty, nastiness, incompetence, her wild vanity… and her deep stupidity. How dare these utter arses think we’d be persuaded by their swaggering nonsense. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Most of those at Monday’s event had to remind themselves that Braverman hadn’t defected long ago

and what is it with this nonsense overreaction by some Arsenal fans. Stop being so fckn fickle... we are top of the league 4 points clear, top of the champions league, into the second leg of the League Cup with a goal advantage and also through in the FA Cup. Yes we didn't play well. Get over it.
This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years. These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

No MP should be earning £380,000 on top of their parliamentary salary. Farage manages it because he's turned "politainment" into a viable career. Like his US counterparts he's discovered that being a disruptor can make you very wealthy indeed. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I've been waiting for this. Independent autopsy of Renee Good is in. It's strong evidence against Agent Ross, given what it means about the second or third shot through the left-side window. It's the second and third shots that make the easiest criminal case of a willful killing.
Independent autopsy in ICE shooting death of Renee Good released by law firm in civil investigation
The results of an independent autopsy for Renee Good have been released as part of a law firm's civil investigation, two weeks after she was shot and killed by a federal agent in Minneapolis.

All the decent people are horrified. All the racists are delighted. Farage has modelled his own brutalising and ruinous immigration policy on Trump’s fascism. “Operation Restoring Justice. Detect. Detain. Deport” FGS UK. Do not submit to this horror. blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandp...
The problems with Reform UK’s immigration policy | LSE British Politics
Reform UK's policy on immigration of "detect, detain, deport" will be highly costly, involve sending money to authoritarian regimes, and have uncertain results.
