In the coming community, the Epstein Class will languish in prison, & it shall be commonplace to have gardeners, nurses, teachers, cleaners, roofers - & plumbers - take on the role of citizen representatives & policy makers.

Long live Hannah the plumber!

"Epstein class" is terrific not simply because several of them are directly tied to Epstein's crimes, but because it strikes at the corruption, immorality and impunity of that entire circle.
Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

Epstein was evidently a nodal point for depraved fascist extractors.

Happily, the monopolistic products pedalled by the likes of Thiel, Gates, Musk & Bezos have been adjudged by our wise patriarchal rulers to be perfectly safe for use across UK education and the NHS.

Who can feel anything but disgust at these reports? The loan regime is an abomination.

But the Guardian typically ignores the emerging HE alternatives - for they exist - perhaps because it has a stake in the perpetuation of a morbid capitalist system that yields only misery and impotence.

A brilliant extrapolation by @ameliagentleman.bsky.social of the psychopathic misogyny & entitlement underscoring the practice of the patriarchal elite.

This should be a pivotal moment for the flushing away of these squalid bastards & their sacrificial power systems.

Will it happen? Can it?

Last month Kuenssberg gave this mendacious career reptile a BBC platform and Gove slathered over him in The Spectator.

Lest we forget.
Mandelson's normalisation of the global fascist insurgency is indicative of the moral & intellectual standing of a serially disgraced, longstanding canker at the heart of the UK hegemony.
Why is this repellent Epstein apologist still given a platform, albeit by a journal as warped as The Spectator?
Trump’s lessons for Europe
The bigger issue is how both sides of the western coin – America and Europe – are going to establish a modus vivendi in this Age of Trump.

Every year, on National Holocaust Day, I remember my family who disappeared in the Shoah & share a few photographs. Here are my great-grandmother, Sarah, my great-aunt, Karola, and Judith, her daughter. I think too of those who have died & are dying in wars & genocides today.
