MLK Jr "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice".
We have a fight on our hands - in these troubling times - to speed up its progress!


NO LISTS - ⛔️reposters ⛔️ vain men and mansplainers
This little piggy got elected,
Cos' some voters stayed at home,
This little piggy had roast beef,
The American people had none.
And this little piggy squealed ...me, me, me, all the way along...
Enough already. Time to send PIGGY TO GAOL.

What is is the MAGAs need to find out in the #Esptein files, that they do not already know about Trump? It's all there in plain sight and always has been.
I've known Catherine Lucey for 26 years, since I covered the 1999 mayor's race for the PDN and she covered it for Penn's student paper. She is, quite, simply, the best in the business, who also got under Trump's skin in his first term. Trump is the real pig here www.inquirer.com/politics/tru...

Goodness... the three board members on the failed BBC Editorial Guidelines and Standards Committee, still have not resigned. If they do not have enough honour and self awareness to stand down, maybe it's time they were given a push #LisaNandy ?
Tim Davie has stepped down. What's delaying Samir Shah, Robbie Gibb and Caroline Thomson? The buck stops here. Leadership and governance failures writ large!

Here's my argument with Sir Bernard Jenkin MP about the report showing how the racist intimidation of Black and Brown NHS workers on home visits has been exacerbated by the far right's wall of flags.

Well done.
Liberal Democrat MPs have today tabled a motion in Parliament to remove Robbie Gibb from the BBC Board.

Robbie Gibb was appointed by Boris Johnson, he was an editorial adviser to GB News and a director of communications for Theresa May. He is not neutral or impartial.

No former donor to a political party should have a seat on the BBC Board. No former Director of Communications in no 10 Downing Street, for a government of any hue, should have a seat on the BBC Board.
The wrong people are stepping down.
Governance failure is baked in to the current board. #BBC

Samir Zitouni is a British patriot. A terrible tragedy, but also a testmament to the courage and kindness of many Britons who selflessly put themselves in the line of danger to save others.
That is what defines British. Do not let Farage and his thuggy-Tommy outlier pals define it any other way!
Samir Zitouni who works for LNER was the first person to try and stop the attack in Huntingdon.

He is a hero spread his name far and wide, judge people on their actions not their names or immigration status.

Maybe if we start calling our body parts by gun-sounding names like “Revulva” or “Shooterus” or “Vagnum 45” the GOP will stop trying to regulate them.
Just sayin.

So the doom mongers like to say Britain is broken. It is in parts. But there are things that work well. And it usually it's the courage and kindness of ordinary individuals who step up to the mark selflessly to help others, that show us all is not lost!
Huntingdon - This comment from Simon Calder is worth repeating.

My thoughts with all involved

Only thing Grifter Farage had to say yesterday (apart from the cursory thoughts and prayers) about the horrific events at Huntingdon was to call for the police to identify the perpetrator. He must be disappointed it was not an asylum seeker and so no opportunity to dogwhistle to his racist mates.

Not much point trying to get Andrew Mountbatten Windsor to testify. He does not recognise his own egregious conduct, he did not see anything wrong with anything he would have observed.No moral compass, an integrity-free zone.
He's probably feeling he is the victim.

The fall of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is no fall at all.

It comes ELEVEN years too late and has only happened as a damage limitation exercise.

We need to start having a grown up conversation about monarchy... and I'm starting it here.

All around the world, senior male figures in large corporations, senior politicians, senior bankers, senior academics in the top universities are rightly quaking in their boots. Members of the male establishment, feel entitled, protect each other. Their edifice is crumbling …
