(2/2) Today's @newsagents.bsky.social demonstrates the risks DT poses.
At home, he's responsible for state sponsored ethnic cleansing, ICE thugs threatening darker skinned civilians.
Overseas, he wages imperialist conflicts to emulate his chums, Netanyahu and Putin.
Fool us twice...shame on you

Starmer's comments about tariffs over Greenland is the MINIMUM he must do. As evidenced below, this action is the latest in a long line of petulant, narcissistic and childish actions from Trump. (1/2)

Humanism is in part about how we live our lives, and how our lives connect with those of others.
Humanists are non-religious. We recognise that there is no one single way to live well, and that people differ in their interests, identities, and aspirations.

This #HumanRightsDay, remember: these rights safeguard ordinary people, every single day. We can’t let them be quietly taken away. Both Reform UK and the Conservatives have suggested withdrawal from the ECHR, while proposals have also been put forward by the Government to weaken Articles 3 and 8.

This would be incredibly frustrating for individuals and their families who take that decision but find themselves on the "wrong" side of the border...this cannot be allowed to be the case!
That means losing control over crucial aspects of delivery – including Welsh language provision and access arrangements. It could mean Welsh residents are forced to travel to England for assessment and no tailored oversight reflecting Welsh communities. humanists.uk/2025/12/09/m...

Steven Methven's piece for @novaramedia.com all this is spot on!
While transparency and accuracy in broadcasting is essential, we must consider where the pressure for these resignations has truly come from.
The latest in a series of regrettable scandals from an unsustainable British institution.

At least most of his "esteemed" colleagues measure him up similarly to the population that haven't become woefully enamored by him
The #ECHR is under attack. Last week, Reform Leader Nigel Farage attempted to introduce a private member’s bill to withdraw from the #ECHR, announcing that Reform would withdraw from the Convention. It was voted down by MPs. humanists.uk/2025/10/29/h...

I learnt this pathetic excuse of a man had lost his royal privileges as I concluded the inspiring and sadly posthumous memoir of Virginia Giuffre Roberts.
I'm sad that Virginia never lived to see this day, but glad that her family, friends and fellow survivor sisters have ♥️

Remember, if you are at all troubled by lawyers pursuing actual terrorists being punished by their government while the actual terrorists go free, then you are suffering from ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’.
Breaking on MSNBC:
Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

Off the top of my head, there have been four egregious examples of weapons grade public racism in the last couple of weeks - Jenrick; the Express hack; Captain Concrete & the Reform woman. The way they are treated by employers, punters & wider media, will directly influence how much more we see.
