Ex-Labour voter, no more after they became the third cheek of the fascist right uniparty. "no amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Labour party"

Francesca Albanese accused UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer of enabling Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Her report says Britain helped shape pro-war consensus, conducted over 600 surveillance flights over Gaza, and pressured the ICC against pursuing Israeli leaders.

It's been heavily reported for years that all of Trumps speeches are heavily edited by all media to sanewash them so that they don't come across as deranged, incomprehensible rambling. However, given the toddler-in-chiefs reaction, this is a genuine crisis for the BBC and the UK.

So they've learned nothing from Brexit, Trump's victories, and Zoran's victory last night. They deserve to lose and I hope every entitled, arrogant blue Labour scumbag is wiped from politics permanently

Offering much needed timely support to an embattled leader in a precarious position. I am of course referring to Zelenskyy giving a much-needed PR boost to the shitgibbon Starmer.

there’s something distasteful in the way people describe the poor as having only their economic plight guide their values. it feels almost condescending, as though they can’t walk and chew gum and think that disrespecting an historic office is bad.

"When you can't defend your position, just start talking about conspiracy theories"
Well, that's two false statements in a row.
You're not interested about facts, you'd rather have conspiracies and the conversation led by russian/iranian tv hosts than informed opions. Ironic how you frame that as positive.

Predicted and inevitable, the first of many breaches. Technically inept politicians keen to pretend they're "bringing big tech to heel", without the slightest clue of the implications of their bad laws, punishing all of us instead.

Demanding that the hostages return isn't incompatible with naming & demanding an end to genocide.
Naming the power imbalance & impact thereof doesn't desecrate those murdered two years ago today.

How absolutely lovely and endearing it is to see all the UK's main political parties engaged in the equivalent of Monty Pythons Four Yorkshiremen sketch over immigration. "Well, I'm going to deport 750,000." Nobody in the UK deserves these pond slime.

Thanks, Online Safety Act. The horrifying thing is that nearly all political parties in the UK still think that the atrocity of a bad law is a good idea.

There is a fallacious belief, endemic to mainstream liberal political commentary and thought, that 'centrism' is necessarily antithetical to 'fanaticism'. Fortunately, that fallacy is finally beginning to be identified and confronted.

Just discovered I'm on "fascists" and "people who think Ukraine should give up" lists, which comes a somewhat of a surprise, being diametrically opposed to both beliefs. I guess it just goes to show there's a lot of reactionary idiots out there.
