Remember, remember
The 5th of November,
Sparklers and hotdogs and hats.
Go watch an organised display,
And stop scaring dogs, you twats.

We are just Germany in the 1930s instead of blaming Jews we are blaming migrants.

But they aren't responsible for Austerity, Brexit or the profiteering crisis.

Ossoff: He’s so consumed by his efforts to secure revenge, crush his enemies, and conquer Greenland that he’s doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge, and centralizing as much power as he can..

We’re out and about across the UK today to tell MPs and constituents that our country is missing out on £460m a week without a wealth tax.
Rachel Reeves doesn’t need to make cuts, instead she can tax the richest people like us to build a better Britain.

£400bn a year, that is how much the UK is losing in tax to the richest 1% and biggest companies who pay a tiny fraction of the 47% tax that you would pay on the same earnings.

Tax the rich.

The Brunton’s future under the spotlight
Political leaders, arts representatives, and community stakeholders have convened to address the future of the Brunton, Musselburgh's cultural venue. The roundtable, which drew cross-party political support from MSPs including Martin Whitfield, Colin Beattie, Alison Johnston, Jeremy Balfour, Paul McLennan, and MP Douglas Alexander, heard that the building's top floor has been deemed unsafe since the pandemic, and complete mothballing is planned by June.

Abolished indefinite prison sentences still in place - despite prisoner numbers approaching pre-release scheme levels
Imprisonment for public protection (IPP) sentences were introduced in 2005 and abolished in 2012. But the law wasn't backdated, so thousands are still behind bars.

BREAKING: Trump and Republican leadership in Congress admit they are incapable of passing their own budget for NINE FREAKING MONTHS because they take a fuck-ton number of days off so they can perform angertainment spectacles, Trump can play golf, and because they hate each other.

I started planning this column a while ago, but I kept imagining it wouldn't be necessary, as many other journalists would surely get there first. I've been scratching my head ever since, wondering "where is everyone?" Is this not a huge and obvious issue?
This week's column asks a question that should be in everyone's minds, as Trump reshapes the world's alliances:

How, given that our defence and security capacities are completely infiltrated by the US state, do we defend ourselves if the US becomes our opponent? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
The question no one dares ask: what if Britain has to defend itself from the US? | George Monbiot
So much of our intelligence and military systems are shared or reliant on the US – if it becomes the enemy, it is already inside the gates, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Doesn’t sound particularly Trumpian, sounds like every other CS reform I can remember. Maybe you have to do this every so often - clear out the dross & the waste (there will always be some), put people on their mettle. But let’s not pretend it’s new
