Palestine Action have WON their judicial review in the High Court!
A massive victory for free speech, freedom of association and the right to protest.
A massive defeat for the draconian attempts by Keir Starmer's government to curtail our fundamental rights.

Mä toivon vanhempien järjestävänsä asiat niin, että Kokoomus ei ole enää ikinä hallituksessa.
Toivoisi että köyhyyteen ajetut lapsiperheet järjestäisivät asiansa kuntoon, sanoo Kokoomuksen Martin Paasi. Näin hän jatkaa hallituksen linjaa, jossa työttömyys on työttömien vika, vanhustenhoito lasten ongelma ja niin edelleen.

USA deepening colonialism. Dumpy wants to be a king of old. Africa should follow Kagame’s lead and tell America to eff off.
In return for health aid, African countries are expected to buy American products, grant America access to their health data and align policies to the Trump administration’s health agenda
American aid to Africa comes with more strings attached
A new crop of health deals is unlikely to meet the needs of recipient countries

There was no Dumpy, there was no Putler, there was Netanyahu. There were no gory ’breaking news’ pieces. There was simply peace.

Then I woke up. Welcome to another bloody Monday. January 2026 isn’t even over. Why do we accept this bullying by these old narcissit men?

Dumpy to talk in Davos on ”how can we co-operate in a more contested world?".
🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

What’s the dimwit going to say? ”Do what I say or I’ll tariff you?”

Thoughts?

If US threats towards Greenland continue, Europe could refuse to refuel American ships in European ports, require higher payments for the stationing of US troops — or even close US military bases. https://bit.ly/3NcvJ2j
US intentions towards Greenland threaten NATO’s future. But European countries are not helpless
US threats to annex Greenland following the attack on Venezuela should be taken seriously. European countries have important leverage they should be prepared to use.

God has spoken, I wonder if the Christian Democrats in Suomi are listening.
Netanyahu’s Israel committed genocide in Gaza.

If you can’t admit that, then you have NO BUSINESS being the Democratic candidate in 2028.

Muiden maiden pitäisi sopia keskenään, että kun USA sinkoilee tulleja sinne tänne, niihin vastataan aina korottamalla Yhdysvaltain tulleja. Yleensäkin tullit ovat vastavuoroisia. USA:n hajota ja hallitse politiikka pitää kaataa.
Jos USA:n politiikka on noin poukkoilevaa, se kannattaa eristää.

Mitä pitäisi tehdä, muttei tehdä.

Yhdysvallat:
- eristetään USA täydellisesti
- lähetetään lisää joukkoja Grönlantiin

Ukraina:
- moninverroin lisää apua

Suomi:
- perutaan mm. työelämän heikennykset sekä suojaosan poisto. Eivät tuo mitään säästöjä eivätkä lyhennä velkaa, mutta tuhoavat paljon

I wonder what delegation of EU will traipse off to see the criminal in the White House to beg for reconsideration of tariffs. We keep kissing ass, smoothing a bully’s ego. Here’s a thought: don’t go there, stop engaging with him. There’s no reasoning with a fool.
