The birthday book is clear: there was a cabal of rich, powerful people (mostly men) whose fondest memories with Jeffrey Epstein involved trafficking young girls for sex—trading them like baseball cards—and one of them is the current American president. You’re cool with this or you’re not. That’s it.

A map of countries that recognise the State of Palestine.
You can now add France… but apparently not the UK, Germany, Canada of Australia.
Shameful.

Israeli newspaper writes this but nowhere in US or UK would it be countenanced.
More Palestinians have been killed queuing for food than Israelis were killed on Oct 7th. Is Israel still defending itself by massacring the starving?

Hateful, sectarian Ulster is very much alive.
This is the Moygashel 12th July bonfire. Many bonfires receive huge funding and backing from loyalist paramilitary groups. The PSNI facilitate this and councils clean up after them.
This paramilitary backed hate is being justified live on BBC Radio Ulster. The state is rotten to the core.

No evidence apparently of anyone significant being involved with Epstein’s sex offences against young women and girls. Nothing at all to warrant further investigation… 🙄😕🤔
Wonder why we're not getting that list... www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzwE...

Terrorism is a horrible crime that brings death and injury to innocents. Repainting a war plane and standing with a placard are not terrorism and we confuse the two at our peril.

Well worth watching the whole thing... but George makes the case perfectly inside the first 5 minutes. #palestine #palestineaction
Today, the UK government intends to ban the non-violent protesters Palestine Action as a "terrorist" group, exposing anyone supporting them to terrorism charges. In 2 days, 380,000 people have watched this video on YT alone.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

Lest not forget that in 2004, #KeirStarmer defended a man who broke into an RAF base and tried to set fire to British aircraft. Starmer argued his actions were legal because they were to stop an 'illegal war.'

They said: “We remain committed to a competitive and fair reward package for all colleagues."
