I always turn to #Georgetteheyer when I'm low. A real pickmeup. Resting my eyes after an operation, I was delighted to find most are available in audio on youtube with some fine narrators (if you can tolerate the frequent ads.) Bath Tangle is a sad omission. A favourite.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Judge Diane Goodstein placed a hold on DoJ’s request to turn over SC’s voter data. Then her million dollar home burned to the ground.
Coincidence? I think not.
Authorities are investigating this incident as possible arson.

I’m old enough to remember being shouted down for even suggesting that Brexit might be connected to racism, but it was. Always. Right in its heart.
My view is that our denial of this is why it festered, and why we are where we are today.

What is the endgame in this toxic immigration debate: is it friends and neighbours thrown out of the country? | Jonthan Liew
The notion of remigration was abstract, but the right is dragging it towards respectability. If the goal is homogeneous whiteness, they should say it, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

#InspectorGerri - the police team dynamics are miserabke (more like a British drama). Too many women inexplicably falliing for the inspector's charms. He's not that gorgeous.Too much troubled gazing off to the horizon and not enough action and pace, but the location is beautiful.

Zarah is right. Mimicking #Reform won't work, but making peoples' lives better and more comfortable will make them feel less vulnerable and marginalised and take away their reasons for attacking others even less fortunate.
But how to get mass communication when our MSM is so RW skewed?

Great interview with Zarah.
I'm not always the biggest fan of Novara although I am trying to put some of my gripes behind me in the name of Left wing solidarity.
I am however a big fan of Zarah so this is worth watching.

UK hasn’t seen poverty like this for 60 yrs, says Gordon Brown in call to scrap two-child benefit cap.
Tory govt imposed it. Labour continuing with it. Starmer removed whip from 7 MPs who opposed it.
What is the mentality of Ministers condemning children to poverty, blighting futures?

The UK is in the grip of an ongoing right-wing coup.
It is the main cause of economic decline and social tensions.
Successive govts have been enrolled to make us subservient to corporations and the rich.
Corporate power must be curbed/reversed for a better future.
