The reason why the ECHR matters in under two minutes from the society of labour lawyers …
"The reason why the reactionary right hate the ECHR is because it gives ordinary citizens the right against the secretive and authoritarian state that they want."

–George Peretz KC, Chair of the Society of Labour Lawyers, speaking at our conference rally.

love this time of year where stores distill gender options down to “assigned perfume and diamonds at birth” or “assigned whiskey and multipurpose knives at birth” for gift giving purposes

I just don't get this obsession from the (far) Right with being pure English. Surely I can be patriotic and love my country (difficult as that is, at times) despite being a good old mix and surely as an island that has been invaded many times over the centuries, that is what we all are.

Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

Important Reform/Lowe/Robinson supporters know it’s an Algerian, Muslim immigrant Samir Zitouni, who saved lives armed with just a frying pan putting himself between a British knifeman & train passengers

He was stabbed in the head & neck saving a girl..

Yet racists will still hate him ❗️

I have a potential rock star career ahead of me. I'm just not that fussed about it to be honest
Yesterday I saw someone say most people have a novel in them but they elect not to write it and I've decided that's true in the same way that I personally have a marathon in me I'm just electing not to run it.

We all know that the UK could have a well-funded university system without heaping debt on the heads of students, if politicians wanted it to.

That's the only thing to say, really. Every dysfunction is a choice. A choice made by politicians, not by lecturers or students.

Agree. Great reminder that celebs are just ordinary people who we happen to know from the telly
What #CelebrityTraitors has proved to me so far (having watched three seasons of the non-celebrity kind)

Celebrities aren't smarter than ordinary people, are more likely to move as a pack and enjoy being traitors too much

My colleagues & I have taken a huge gamble to set up @thenerve.news We’re trying to build a new independent publication from the ground up. Social media is our only distribution for now.

Sharing this article in your networks would make a huge difference. Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
NEW: The British politician, his Russian intelligence handler & a Kremlin plot against the US & Ukraine.

My new piece about Nathan Gill and Nigel Farage for @thenerve_news in which we ask:

Why, even now, is no-one asking questions?

This.
Zack Polanski’s response to the Manchester terror attack has been a masterclass in mature statesmanship.

Soulful, human, eloquent, empathetic, nuanced, confident and focused on healing.

And bold. It has shone in contrast to so much weaponising or ill thought through commentary.

Thank you Zack. 💪

I was scrolling and saw this.
How powerful this is; yet completely true.
The time to speak out is NOW as @georgemonbiot.bsky.social is doing.
Key ministers - including Starmer - have subtly endorsed the far right + therefore encouraged it.
Clearly, these aren’t 🌹values.
