Happy, optimistic type. Left leaning.

I think it was “Blessed are the cheesemakers.”

Russia Today was thrown out of the UK because the level of misinformation it peddled was a danger to UK democracy. However, it never called for the overthrow of the UK government. This loathsome creature and his cesspit platform should face an immediate ban.

Aslef members, the union that represents 85 % of London Underground train drivers, are not on strike.
RTL members are.
They don't typically earn 65 to 72 kpa, that would be the ASLEF lot, who are not on strike never mind what the BBC and the Daily Mail tell you.

The atrocity news treadmill makes sure western media are so busy chasing after Israel’s latest crime in Gaza they never pause long enough to piece together the bigger story of genocide.

Read my latest article here: jonathancook.substack.com/p/even-the-m...
Even the media's Gaza 'investigations' hide the real story of Israel's atrocities

Looks like this cycle lane in South side Glasgow has been a super success.
Nearly 1000 cyclists passing every day.

Shame it had to happen, but as usual normal folk have more about themselves than those with the power to do something...

I don’t want to start a pile-on. A lot of people would be involved in commissioning & editing this piece. But it’s currently leading site: a major editorial choice that is endorsing what is unarguably access journalism. In a moment in which UK govt ministers have never more needed to be challenged.

Spot on from Andrew Marr on the vacuity of the Government's unquestioning embrace of AI and big tech, at the same time as that technology is accelerating the far right radicalisation and economic division of our society

This disgusting and genocidal regime needs to be swept from the sands of time.
Israel’s parliament has approved a symbolic measure calling for the annexation of the occupied West Bank. Annexing occupied land is illegal under international law.

Yes, and if they don't deliver, they won't last long, or won't get the massive sums that they demand.

Water privatisation has been a complete & utter failure.

It is absurd that the government's report into the water industry didn't even consider public ownership.

That's not a report. That's a political broadcast for the private sector.

Put water back into public hands, now.

This Palestinian father says he had to feed his infant child expired formula milk, as a man-made hunger crisis worsens under Israel's ongoing war on Gaza.
