UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 5: Vito Marcantonio

There are many who dismiss our vision for New York as impossible. To them, I say we need look only to our past for proof of how we can shape the future.

Tomorrow is Election Day. And this is the final Until It's Done of our campaign.

The silence of the Westminster lobby as one of their own backs calls for me — an elected Member of Parliament — to be deported is telling.

No condemnation, just bootlicking of their proprietors and jostling for Zone 2 dinner party invites.

Our media class is rotten to the core.

🧵 Sinister stuff. Jenrick, a Tory leadership candidate, says he didn’t see a White face in an area, & that it looked like a slum. This is a v old racist dog-whistle. Then when challenged on it, he accuses journos of fomenting terrorism. He’s clearly in fascist double-speak mode [1]
Wow. Robert Jenrick doubles down by branding a black journalist's questions "ridiculous" and saying that the problem is not his comments, but "journalists like you who pop up and try to knock me down", adding that "this is the reason why terrorist attacks happen". ~AA

I believe that the measure of a civilised country is how well it cares for its most vulnerable members. The difference between politicians and me is that I look the palliative care patients they are failing in the eye.

Being pro-Palestinian is not being anti-Jewish.

Just as being pro-Jewish is not being anti-Palestinian.

Irresponsible language and framing from the Home Secretary.

It is perfectly right that people both protest the Gaza genocide and mourn the Manchester attack.
