Okay, I can't let this one go. I live in Ireland, not the UK, but the use of this image by a supposedly socialist party is so stupid and offensive, I'm going to get stuck in.

Let me explain to you why any experienced illustrator/designer could have stopped you making so many miserable mistakes. 1/

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

Why is it so hard to run the BBC? Is impartiality possible? Is it even what polarised viewers even want?

Whatever happened to the Labour Party, they seemed like they were going places.
PERSON OF THE DAY. 15 November 1897. Aneurin Bevan was born in Tredegar, Wales. He spearheaded the creation of the NHS in 1948 by the Labour government. It offered treatment free at the point of delivery to all citizens, irrespective of income. It’s one of the key social reforms in British history.

This man was trafficked into Britain, in ways which the government would now use to make him subject to deportation. According to a leading political pundit, he brought with him ancestral violence, which means that he *and his British-born children* should be expelled.

This man.

A reminder of what the NYT actually finds to be a punishable offense bc they are not an org dedicated to upholding the tenets of democracy or journalistic ideals, they interest is in defending the status, positions, & reactionary goals of the already powerful.

Blimey. Major new split in Your Party. Blackburn MP Adnan Hussain -who is secretary of the Your Party company - says he's quitting due to "persistent infighting, factional competition, and a struggle for power, position and influence rather than a shared commitment to the common good."

He can call it a hoax all he wants. The Epstein files are sticking to Trump like a bad rash that he will never get rid of.
