Yep. We're in the fight of our lives here. I have more confidence about the next election than most but the stakes could not be higher.
Labour will face two ethno nationalist, climate change denying, anti-human rights, isolationist parties at the next election. The character of modern Britain could alter radically in the 2030s.

🚨BREAKING: Cal State LA just moved classes online and let faculty work remotely, not for a storm, not for COVID, but because ICE is in the area.

Let that sink in, an entire university is treating immigration enforcement like a public health crisis.

London buses are covered in adverts urging us all to watch this for free through DAZN, a streaming service owned by the ever-curious character of Len Blavatnick (whose representatives will phone you all weekend if you dare to call him an “oligarch”), who used $1bn of Saudi cash to buy the rights.
Really has cheered me up watching the collective indifference of football fans to the new Club World Cup.
I mean just look at this nonsense. Surprised Delap isn’t starting to be honest. I’ve never seen any pre season game be this bad in attendance terms!

The more you look at it, the more the spending review looks like a bad deal for Wales in terms of rail.

Over 4 years Wales gets £348 million.

This is only £108 million (45%) more than spending on a single station in Leeds...

When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter “story selection” and “other types of output, such as drama”, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left?
All the shifts are in just one direction.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

The Israeli govt says:

“There is no hunger in Gaza”

UN tells us 14,000 babies at risk of death from malnourishment

Can our press now stop quoting the Israeli Govt’s line as anything but naked lies and propaganda?

“Inevitably, Brexiteers didn’t even wait for the deal to be signed before they screamed betrayal…

“The Brexit movement has become less a political ideology as a toddler’s tantrum: they have no idea what they want, knowing only that it’s not this.”

It’s taken a Remainer to fix the Brexiteers’ mess
Keir Starmer’s pragmatic deal is nowhere near as good as rejoining - but it is good news for British companies, consumers and tourists

For at least a decade, England has been obsessed with scapegoating. Politicians from right and left have all embraced populism. Instead of analysing facts and telling truths, they've promised that everything will be okay if we just punish this group or that group. It has to end.

World leaders sit and admire Russian UAVs at the parade in Moscow—the same UAVs that terrorize our country every single night, attacking peaceful cities, striking apartment buildings, hospitals, schools, and playgrounds. Destroying homes. Killing people.

As someone who edited one once told a mate of mine, this is already the ENTIRE business model of women's magazines. Make your readers feel like shit so they buy the products advertised. It's a deeply manipulative and misogynistic business.
