Story on Sky News's politics feed re the money politicians of all stripes made through speaking engagements in Conference season makes me sick. If you want a prime e.g of how capitalism fails the 99%, look no further Rishi Sunak worked 11 hours and made £300,000 I often work 11 hours and make £200
Want more evidence that the BBC supports the UK government's planned trans bathroom ban and are grovelling simps for the empress of eugenist, white supremacist misogynists (i.e TERFS)? They are making a one giant puff piece dedicated to her. Call out the BBC and fight back.

Michael Gove's ex Girlfriend, dragged into the 'News', he's not been? Odd. Mikey was The Lord Chancellor, a senior cabinet minister in the UK government who served as the Secretary of State for Justice. He also likes dancing. We need Scottish Independence, to get away from these awful people.
the brexit project was bad, yeah. it PALES in comparison to the financial neoliberal project. a project that burnham is actively accelerating.

I keep reading that 'nobody should be forced to pay for the BBC'. Meanwhile, I'm forced to pay for the royal family, nuclear weapons, religiously-affiliated schools and the House of Lords.
Refuk, Restore and the Tories all desperately trying to out-fash each other. They're already at the 'getting the Marines to murder unarmed civilian asylum seekers in the Channel' stage. How much further will they have sunk before the next GE?
No surprise considering Preet Kaur Gill was also part of the team that was involved in trying to push Palantir on the NHS when Starmer was running labour. Just to know where she sits on big tech.
Tetra👑@pitchwitch1.bsky.social · 16h agoPreet Gill saying communities views don't matter and we'll get data centres and like it is surely going to endear the public to the concept further.
They push and push and push with the boot on your neck to embrace the the slop engine that will put you out of work. Then have the galls to go on TV and complain about people being on benefits.
These AI companies and the useful idiot politicians enabling them are sneering at you with contempt. All they will do is create noise, pollute local areas, drain water and make more money for yankie billionaires who will use these to put millions out of work to cut the bottom line.

Boris Johnson put his Russian sex-party mate in the House of Lords. Kompromat methinks.

Defence minister Luke Pollard explains that Saudi Arabia are our friends. Saudi Arabia has been committing war crimes in Yemen for years (like bombing a school bus in 2018 & killing more than 40 children). Thats who we're friends with.
This is appalling. Watson is essentially equating concerns some of us have on the role Palantir are playing in UK government with being part of a 'mob'. Protest is not "mob rule" Mr Watson. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

I must admit I was surprised at the Tories' rage at Burnham's speech, earlier...its not like they colluded with various Russian friends of Putin or anything is it...?

What a waste of police time 😡 what the hell are we doing with an Israeli arms company in this country ??? Send them packing , we don't want them here 😡
'“No journalist should have to weigh the risk of arrest against their duty to inform the public. If reporters cannot cover protests freely, the public is left in the dark about events it has a right to know about."'
'Press advocacy group Reporters Without Borders said in a statement that it was “deeply concerned to hear of the arrest of journalists covering a protest in Leicester, particularly given they had identified themselves as such to police.”'
'“Our arresting officer was unable to articulate what caused the suspicion but it did instantly vanish when they got my name, address and date of birth.”'
'“Multiple journalists including myself were arrested under section 13 of the Terrorism Act for going to work,” he wrote. “An officer told me that I would be de-arrested as soon as I gave my details despite identifying myself as a journalist with a press card.'
"The journalists were detained for two hours last Thursday at a UAV Tactical Systems factory owned by Elbit Systems, which makes weapons that are used in Israel’s genocide in Gaza."
"Police in Leicester arrested at least five journalists under the Terrorism Act while they were reporting on a protest outside a drone factory owned by an Israeli arms company... Those arrested included two reporters for the Leicester Gazette and three freelance photojournalists."
Until Burnham revokes this absurdity, I can 't vote for Labour.

Andy Burnham: “If she is saying she is happy with the status quo, she is in a minority in this country. People know Britain can do better than this." 🚨 Burnham is right: the public is unhappy with our current relationship with the EU. In fact, 628 out of 632 constituencies now want EU membership.
But dont call them genocidal, racist or mention the aparthied. The UK government will hate that and msm will call you antisemitic.
