last year, centrists lost their minds when Green Party leader Zack Polanski dared to suggest that NATO is over. Fast forward to now, #Trump is threatening to invade a NATO member while Labour politicians squirm: Turns out it was Trump that undermined NATO and Zack was insanely correct.
Labour's 'NATO' attack ad on Polanski comes back to bite them
Polanski said NATO is over in the age of Trump, and now Trump has announced plans to invade a NATO member. Your move, Labour Party.

Outrageous.
Ministers should be listening to scientists, frontline communities and those working towards a green transition – not hosting the interests of oil giants in their own offices.

Imperialism (noun): a policy of extending a country's power and influence through colonisation, use of military force, or other means.
It's clear what Trump is doing.
Yet our Labour government refuse to defend international law and condemn the illegal actions of a rogue state.

Sure, because why bother with actually doing the analogue administration if you can just do the "running" conceptually, economically, through coercion, perpetual threat and the control of information?

AP: Across the Venezuelan capital, there were no signs that the U.S. had taken over control of Venezuela’s government or military forces. The Miraflores Palace and military bases remained guarded by Venezuela’s armed forces

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has been captured by the United States. U.S. President Donald Trump's administration says he'll face charges on a New York indictment.

This is an incredibly weak response from the EU, and a dangerous position to take.
Maduro's legitimacy is not the issue at hand. The US is acting as a rogue state, and will embolden other states to use unchecked military power for their own ends.
We need international law, not gangsterism.

I have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela.
The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. (1/2)

No, Clive. I won't read your article
And not only because it's paywalled
They don't recognise the fault line because they are responsible for normalising it. Our countries (get that right huh) already exist in the nightmare you say is a risk, because your party serves vested interests at any cost

If Labour doesn't recognise the fault line running through the country we risk sleepwalking into a government shaped by resentment, division and authoritarian instinct.
