I describe myself as too old to climb trees or chain myself to railings, but old enough to change my mind and do it anyway. I want to live in a fair and decent world. I value the contribution immigrants have made to Britain. Live and let live.
The Tories don’t change. They are still the Covid dancing party more interested in second jobs and money than public service. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/labour...

“UK food inflation drops to 3.2% after food prices fall” is a headline I’ve read today. All it means is food prices in general are going up less fast. The hungry and poor are still hungry and poor.
Here we go again. Trump has told the UK that if we want a UK-US tech deal, we need to buy chlorinated chicken from the US! 🤢🐔 How dare he try and impose poor food standards in Britain. Sign the petition to keep chlorine-washed chicken off our shelves:
I think The Express needs to find their Xmas spirit. We're paying £476m for a regime that tear gasses babies & destroys shelters in freezing conditions. We should divert that money to a functioning and fair migration system. Tune in to @boldpolitics.bsky.social at 3pm tomorrow.

Metaphor Man@metaphorman.bsky.social · 7mo agoHundreds of Jews gathered in Trafalgar Square for an event organised by Jewish Anti-Zionist Action (JAZA) to mark the end of Channukah Chants such as "ZIONISTS DON’T SPEAK FOR ME, PALESTINE WILL BE FREE" gave the lie to the pervasive myth associating all Jews with the settler colonial project
The former chief executive of Wessex Water received a £170,000 bonus last year despite a ban on performance-related pay after criminal pollution failures on his watch. Just goes to show, there is very little justice and even less truth in political promises.
The only real peace process underway right now is being carried out by the Ukrainian Armed Forces — through deep strikes against russia's war machine, military airfields, oil refineries etc.
In the 1970s when they started selling off council houses in Britain it was possible to borrow 3 times your salary and buy a house. Now it is 10 times. Tax second homes, empty homes, air b n b and use the money to enable councils to renovate and regenerate. www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/opinion...

Immensely sad to see another Tory considered "moderate", embrace the unprincipled vulgarity and revolting Reform UK cosplay sweeping through her party. Kearns was on the Foreign Affairs C'tee 2019-2024 and its CHAIR for the critical last two years. Any information she needed was one question away.
As always, FDT!
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 7mo agoAs the president outlined his plans to capture Greenland and hijack Venezuelan oil, his real agenda became obvious. It’s extortion, conquest, and theft. Remember when he was the peace president? Today's Morning Shots, from @saletan.bsky.social and @cathyyoung63.bsky.social:
KIMMEL, to the UK: “.. It may not seem like it, but we love you guys. .. We’re going through a bit of a wobble right now, but we’ll come around. .. Give us about three years.” @jimmykimmel.com
We've always had these dead-eyed socipaths around. It's just a few years ago they were ignored and now they're "senior fellow" at places funded by evil millionaires + going on podcasts with a brain-rotted ex-PM.

Pitt is a Senior Policy Fellow for Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain, who also regularly co-hosts podcasts with his ally Tomlinson (who advocates banning all ethnic and faith minorities from public office). Like Lowe, Pitt is keen to dissolve boundaries/norms
A few weeks ago, a stranger turned up and started photographing sensitive Swedish telecoms masts. But - the employees were alert, and the man was arrested. A lesson for other companies, because attacks against our companies will continue, I write in @politico.eu. No paywall.
POLITICO Europe@politico.eu · 7mo agoCOMMENTARY: In these geopolitically turbulent times, we can’t know exactly what kind of subversive activities will be directed against our societies. But companies can teach their employees what to look for, because spotting incidents is everyone’s responsibility.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court upholds a lower court block on Trump’s attempt to send the National Guard to Chicago, ruling the president unlawfully used an archaic statute to federalize hundreds of state troops.
Also, calling Russell Brand a comedian is like calling Tommy Robinson a journalist. There is no evidence he is or ever was.
