I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

Irrespective of whether Jesus was a real person or not, the fact is the Bible states he was born in Bethlehem, Palestine to non-white parents & was of no fixed abode.
He disliked the rich & spent his life advocating for the vulnerable & poor.
Perhaps Christians should take note.

We condemn the scandalous US visa ban on former EU Commisioner Breton and digital activists. Protecting democracy isn’t censorship. ✋🏼

Disinformation isn’t free speech. Europe won’t take lessons from those undermining democracy and free speech.

Here in Europe we set our own laws. 🇪🇺✊🏼

Europeans who haven’t been sanctioned by the Trump administration are the ones who should worry about not doing enough to defend our interests. Full support for @thierrybreton.bsky.social and others on the list

Nothing suggests systemic pro-Zionist bias in the British media more than the bizarre lack of reporting on the Palestine Action hunger strikes.

With the #Ashes on, cricket fans should raise a glass to Steve Cropper, guitarist of Booker T and the MGs, who co-wrote Soul Limbo, so well known from BBC highlights. I had the pleasure to meet Steve and his dad in 2007 at the #Stax Museum in Memphis. A gent. RIP. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBT4...

Best one I've seen yet of pub reaction to Kenny McLean's halfway line shot that sent Scotland to the World Cup for the first time since 1998. From the Old Smiddy in Cathcart, Glasgow: www.facebook.com/share/v/1MsL...

Scotland won their group.
That is an amazing stat with Denmark (Euro Champs 92) and Greece (Euro Champs 2004.)
It is such a shame that the finals are in America. An absolute shitehole of a country at the moment under Trump. He may well be dead by next year, so that's something to hope for.

Great quick read from Robert Reich
Trump is a monster. He is an aspiring dictator who wants to wield the same power as a Stalin or Hitler, and he wants to be remembered through statues, stadiums and ballrooms.
He should be remembered as both a liar and traitor

The official investigation into the January 6 riots concluded Trump “summoned the mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack" in an effort to halt the peaceful transfer of power.

No billion dollar lawsuit can change reality.

The BBC should call this convicted criminal’s bluff.

It's not just immigrants he hates.
It's women.
It's poor people.
It's Disabled People.
He even hates the people who vote for him, just like Trump.

Look at this graph, Reform almost all of them went to Private School.

If you are Working Class and you vote for Reform, you are a traitor, to yourself.

Or as we call them, a bloody fool.

My two takeaways on this:

1. CNN's CEO is utterly craven. No surprise there.

2. The White House is getting very nervous about how poorly the demolition of the East Wing is going over with most Americans. Good.

Christopher Harborne is by far the largest donor to Nigel Farage he has donated £13.7m since 2019.

He lives in Thailand and owns QinetiQ defence company which makes Laser and AI weapons for the USA.

Nigel Farage is literally owned by the US Military Industrial Complex.
