No single industry is more responsible for the dire straits we find ourselves in than big tech and its gang of billionaire cartoon villains. If you're a Democrat and you still want to play nice with these guys you're nuts

In a massive win for everyone the morning after pill is now free and without prescription in England. As we slide backwards to the darker times it’s nice to have some positive news. 🫶

Today our teams across the #GazaStrip were treating severely wounded patients in attacks by Israeli forces, causing alarming civilian casualties. We have seen injured patients in Al Aqsa, Nasser and Al Shifa hospitals.

The Ig Nobel is incredible , one year an Indian guy won it for calculating the average surface area of an elephant and during his acceptance they had an elephant hold up a sign with the surface area of the scientist on it, they do showbiz better than the Oscars
Video: a Japanese scientist was attacked by flies while giving the acceptance speech for his Ig Nobel Prize-winning research paper that proved painting Zebra-like stripes on cows led to a decrease in biting fly attacks.

Sky News and the BBC repeatedly mention the "migrant crisis" in doing so they are normalising and legitimising far right talking points. There is no "migrant crisis", there is only migrant hysteria, which the British media is feeding into instead of countering.

I love London so much. So much.

Did you know that London has the lowest level of ethnic violence of any city of comparable size in the world?

Multiculturalism has in fact worked here. They just don’t want it to be true because we happen to have a Muslim mayor.
In London, hate will never win.

Yvette Cooper should be ashamed. But won’t be
Cooper in 2021: "If there arent the safe legal routes for family reunion we end up with more people being driven into the arms of criminal gangs"

Cooper yesterday: "we are bringing forward new rules to temporarily suspend new applications under the existing family reunion route"

I wouldn’t have thought many Labour MPs came into politics to strip the rights of torture survivors to be reunited with the spouses & children.

They need to take a long hard look in the mirror & ask whether Starmer, Cooper & Reeves are really the leadership their careers should be remembered with.

The Israeli government has adopted the double-strike tactic used by Bashar al-Assad in Syria: target a hospital or heavily populated area, then hit it again when rescue workers, reporters and medics turn up, to kill or maim them too. Hideous war crimes piled one upon another.

Just for perspective, a few weeks ago roughly 100,000 turned up for the London Trans+ Pride march. By contrast fewer than 3,000 ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY, have turned up to anti-asylum "protests". Yet we are meant to take the latter as "the voice of the people" and the former as "the minority".

If only there had been people ten years ago who said mainstream politicians and press were unifying around overtly racist, increasingly National Front politics, while terrifying the public with largely fraudulent concerns about Palestinian Solidarity as a way of suppressing and excluding the left 🤷🏼‍♂️

It is very late to get off the bus supporting this war effort, but it is not too late. Have a think; are you really going to be the last person you know making excuses, as the situation gets worse and worse? If not, why not get ahead of the curve and stop now?
