Trying not to get banned for calling Tories the c word. Or Keir bloody Starmer in truth. I mean, it's bloody hard. Nigh on impossible in fact. Norwich. Graphic designer. Photographer. Left wing (probably considered a Commie these days).
Absolutely spot on. Horrible little sod
No wonder Starmer is so transphobic if Maurice Glassman is whispering in his ear all the time...
Horrible little man.
Oh, and Trump is a fascist, whether he likes the truth or not.

Palestine is not complicated. It’s colonized land. Its people are occupied, starved, and bombed. And they are fighting back as they have every right to do. You either support liberation or you support apartheid. Pick a side.

An inconvenient truth for Labour:
NHS privatisation is entirely un-evidence based and the public has never agreed to it.
All evidence is that privatisation is:
1) more expensive for taxpayers, and
2) has worse outcomes for patients

Means hospitals can’t discharge patients safely.
Exactly why it’s disastrous to make NHS rely on private firms that can go bankrupt.
