Ireland is pushing a motion to ban Israel from FIFA and UEFA.
It has made JD Vance very mad.
It's time to remove Israel from world sport, don't you agree?

Farage Is Coming for Our Human Rights
Nigel Farage is waging a war on human rights that will strip asylum seekers of their basic protections from injustice and harm. We can't let that happen.

They are coming for our neighbours. They are coming for our colleagues. They are coming for our friends.
We are at a dangerous moment. This hatred cannot be appeased. It must be defeated.

Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) is one of the biggest cons created by Tories, expanded by Labour.
For every £1 of private investment in public assets govt repays £6, resulting in higher debt/taxes.
Cheaper for govt to borrow or it can create money
But govt is reviving PFI. Must change policy.

Why the reshuffle alone won’t change the government’s fortunes
"For better electoral fortunes, the government needs to junk neoliberal policies, never-ending austerity; directly invest in infrastructure and redistribute income and wealth."

Over 1,600 people have been arrested since Labour banned Palestine Action — the first time a non-violent direct action group has ever been proscribed in Britain.
The UN has condemned it as “disproportionate” and “unnecessary”.
Opposing genocide isn’t a crime, it’s a moral duty.

The ban is unworkable as well as unjust
Many protestors are "going floppy" to not assist the police in enforcing an unjust law.
Despite claiming the police had the capacity to arrest everyone, they've only managed to detain a small fraction of the more than 1000 protestors.
The ban is unworkable. It must be lifted.
