Home office is "enabling the mainstreaming of racism" says @labourlewis.bsky.social - and he's right.

Labour should be ashamed. This has to stop.

Trump’s plan to drive two million Palestinians out of Gaza so that the US can “take ownership” is a call for ethnic cleansing.

Our government must call it what it is and speak out against it.

Michael Heseltine says Brexiteers sold Britain a “pack of lies” and called for the UK to rejoin the EU.

He said the UK should be “at the heart of Europe” and that returning to the bloc would be “in the best interests of a generation of young British people”.

Before Brexit the UK was about as rich as Germany, and richer than France.

Now it is much poorer than either, by 2030 we will be poorer than Poland, and by 2040 we will be poorer than all 27 EU countries.

The magic of Brexit.

Nigel Farage works for nomadcapitalist.com which helps millionaires/billionaires get 2nd/3rd citizenships in the UK while using Tax Havens so they don't pay any tax.

Nigel Farage loves immigration and tax avoidance, he even earns money from it.

A reminder that the Royal Family claim £500,000,000 a year in benefits even though they have £22bn.

While 650 MP's get an extra £150,000,000 in benefits a year on top of their £94,500 salaries.

If we are cracking down on benefits, start here.

Bullying & harassment costs NHS £2 billion annually. Shocking but sadly unsurprising. The hesitation to call out racism, compared to sexism, shows the urgent need for antiracism & compassionate leadership as it saves costs & lives
