What a man 🙁

These photos were taken in the same week.

In 30 years we will all pretend we were on the Palestinians side just how we pretend we were on the right side of history for every human rights issue.

Here is Yvette Cooper dressed as a suffragette in 2018, posing as a revolutionary.

This is my problem with the RCP is that they romantacise about the soviet union. This enevatable ends up backing marxists into a corner of defending soviet attrocities. If communists want to be serious they need to: Get in local government or parliment and help unions. We dont need revolution.

This is not how you win a war, this is how you dismantle an entire people and country. Russia dont want to win they simply want Ukraine to lose.
Russian agents have been recruiting Ukrainian minors on messaging apps to photograph military targets or plant bombs, officials in Kyiv said.

Ah yes I remember this one, thought it was called The Ermächtigungsgesetz though? 🤔
Trump hails 'win' as Supreme Court curbs judges' power to block his orders
The 6-3 decision is a major boost for the president and his agenda, which has been repeatedly blocked by lower courts.

Spread the word!
In case you missed it, Trump's CFPB has quietly dropped 18 lawsuits against banks, mortgage firms, and subprime lenders accused of offering predatory loans to millions of vulnerable consumers.

Trump is making his corporate backers even richer by letting them swindle you.

This is such an important stand to take with current world tension. Parliment, like congress, should be the deciding factor in decisions like this. It is vital that people reconise we vote for members of parliment not prime minsisters so our representatives should be deeply involved in this.
If the Government chooses to put our troops directly in the line of fire, Parliament must be granted a vote on that choice before they are deployed.

Especially now, as the Prime Minister weighs up following another American President into war in the Middle East.

Here's your periodic reminder that political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

They should be reforming a broken system not continuing austerity, Sir Keir Starmer and Sir David Cameron are so simmilar it is strange. Just shows the new political era we are in that Labour are copying pre-brexit Torrie tactics!

Targeted action, hitting a plane thats only purpose is to help genocide, is a huge win and is brilliant activism by Palestine Action. Rioting against immigrant housing however is awful activism. Palestine action achived there goal in a very efficient way. Burning and shouting is not clean.

When anti-terror laws were introduced, opponents said they'd abused.

Making Palestine Action a terrorist organisation akin to ISIS is deranged behaviour.

History will damn how opponents of genocide were branded terrorists, while war criminals were armed and feted.

The phenomenal campaign of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social has caused panic among the elites.

Whether he wins the Democratic nomination or not (🤞), his campaign offers the Western left crucial lessons.

Socialist Zohran Mamdani could be New York’s next mayor. This is what the western left could learn from him | Owen Jones
He has used clear messaging to redirect anger from the disenfranchised to the economic elites. That the wealthy are worried shows it’s working, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

.@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is standing up to oligarchy and fighting to make New York City affordable for working people.

It's no wonder that billionaires and corporations are spending a fortune to defeat him.

If you’re a NYC voter, I urge you to rank him #1 on your ballot today.
