Welcome to my TED Talk.

Britain and America are never the arbiters of peace. They only want to boost arms sales and make claim to other nations resources. End of.

Thanks for listening.

By eroding trial by jury, the government is cementing its legacy as a bulldozer of our human rights.

This is the behaviour of authoritarian regimes!

The right to a jury trial is a fundamental tenet of democracy. We cannot let it be destroyed.

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

Zarah Sultana says we should "nationalise the entire economy."

I asked her what that meant in practice.

The UN reports that Israel has destroyed 90% of Gaza’s water facilities, using deprivation as a weapon while restricting the fuel needed to run wells and desalination plants. With drinking water now dangerously contaminated, thousands of families face risks of cholera and other deadly diseases.

Please read this opening statement by Assata Shakur from her trial in New York in 1976.

She wrote this almost 50 years ago, but it speaks so clearly to the current moment that it could have been written yesterday

The only difference between you and someone behind the wall is y’all’s distance from the sniper tower.

Assata Shakur was a political hostage (prisoner) that was freed by her comrades. But, she like many of us are not liberated from the system that put her and so many behind the wall.

Fuck 12 😃

Google Zersetzung.

Learn about the FBI’s COINTELPRO used against revolutionaries like Assata Shakur.

Tell me you don’t notice similarities to what’s going on to especially outspoken and prominent leftist advocates and activists today.

The stark difference in priorities between the Green Party and Labour has never been so clear.

Vote Green Party.

If you really want to send a clear message, then join the UK Green Party. It was one of my better decisions.
The Labour Government refused a 1% asset tax on the super rich, yet raised taxes on people already struggling.

All whilst their "black hole" turned out to be utter nonsense.

Active choices to refuse to fund our communities which they desperately need.

Who could have guessed that this ridiculous little twerp wouldn't be up to the job!
Yes, I know we should avoid personal attacks and insults, but I'm not sure I can be bothered any more. I'm sick to the back teeth of seeing total incompetence being rewarded, just because someone is hatey enough.

🚨BREAKING: Dozens more people arrested for peaceful protest in Manchester.

The protesters in Manchester were not inciting violence and it is absurd to be treating them as terrorists.

These arrests are a violation of our rights to freedom of expression and assembly.

Change “Harvard man” to “inner city minority” and this story goes from the business section to the police blotter. America is a deeply divided class based society, so when rich people have an idea they’re entrepreneurs, but when poor people have an idea they’ve incarcerated.

Remember - if you're financially in a position to do so, skip the #BlackFriday deals online from big companies and shop instead from small and local businesses.
The big guns don't need your money, but for small traders it can be what keeps them going into 2026, so support your community instead.

Striking in this debate hosted by @krishgm.bsky.social how many people in the comments are saying that a wealth tax at this point is so obvious.

Is it any surprise that the Labour Governments response is to continually try and take swipes at the Green Party?
