So Kalamity Kemi Badenoch has sacked arch racist slimebag Robert Jenrick from the Tory front bench for flirting with Reform. This is all about Machiavellian maneuverings at the top of the Tory Party and little to do with policy differences - both Badenoch and Jenrick are proponents of culture wars

So Nadhim Zahawi, who resigned in disgrace from Sunak's zombie Tory government in 2023 after evading £5 million in tax, is the latest multi-millionaire recruit to Farage's racist parasites and corrupt kleptocrats.

The government sits and watches as Heba dies. It's heartbreaking, horrible, almost impossible to compute. Didn't people vote in the hope (however forlorn) of ending the Tories' psychopathic mode of government? Yet on it goes, under Keir Starmer. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

This is also what Yvette Cooper, when she was UK Home Secretary, said about #PalestineAction. If you knew the secret stuff I know, you'd agree with me that they're terrorists. It's the cheapest and basest way for a politician to malign someone, and a clear sign of a flailing, undemocratic state.

The machinery of the US fascist state executed a young woman who was a poet. It is a deeply harrowing symbol of the monstrous evil gripping the US and world and how the fate of good people is being trampled and mangled in the moral abyss.

All this talk of US aggression in Venezuela representing the end of the international rules based order is moot but when did the US ever adhere to international rules? It's not even a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC).

The US is bombing Caracas, Venezuela, this morning.

In recent days it has also bombed Nigeria and threatened Iran.

The common denominator is that all these countries have huge oil reserves which US corporations want to control.

A crypto investor just donated £9 million to the Reform Party. Right now, billionaires can pour unlimited money into our elections, effectively buying our democracy. Think that's wrong? Add your name to call for a cap on donations today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...
Take Big Money Out of Our Politics
British politics is awash with money from super rich donors. In 2023, two-thirds of all private donations came from just 19 people. These so-called ‘mega donors’ enjoy privileged access to political p...

BP and Shell's decision to focus on expanding oil and gas production instead of renewables is beyond the comprehension of anyone who is semi-sentient or conscious. It is a crime against humanity, future generations and the ecosystems that sustain the planet. What could be more evil than that?

I note FB is removing 'fact checking' from its service meaning the Wild West free for all where everything is permitted and nothing is true will proliferate further emboldening the far right purveyors of misinformation Big Tech is polluting our culture with lies and failing to protect children.

Jean-Marie Le Pen: Holocaust denier, apologist for French collaboration with the Nazis and pathological racist - rot in hell!! His daughter, Marine, has attempted to sanitise the fascist movement he founded but the proverbial apple does not fall far from the tree!

An extremely underrated and humane President who put ethical concerns at the forefront of foreign policy as much as was possible within the constraints of the system and who campaigned tirelessly against apartheid in South Africa and Israel/Palestine. RIP Jimmy Carter

The attack on civilians in Germany, is both tragic at the human level, with the loss of innocent life, but also on a political level engendering the further polarisation of immigration and acting as a boost for the ever growing far right in the shape of Alternative fur Deutschland (AFD).

Royal Mail is a vital public service and piece of social infrastructure which should be in public hands not those of a Russian connected Czech billionaire. Labour should have renationalised it in line with public opinion which, according to a July 2024 YouGov Poll, was favoured by 75% of the public

FIFA's decision to award the World Cup to Saudi Arabia in 2034 almost strains credulity were it not so predictable. FIFA is a vector for "dirty" money, bribery and corruption and nothing much has changed from the dark days of the disgraced Sepp Blatter.

Israel is bombing the hell out of Syria and creating a buffer zone to protect the Golan Heights which they already illegally occupy. Their aim is nothing less than the subjugation of the region to Zionist hegemony as if no other country has legitimate interests other than the "chosen people."

It is amazing how the NYPD suddenly has infinite resources when trying to solve the murder of a multi-millionaire CEO in a healthcare industry that allows 68,000 Americans to die each year of treatable conditions. It's almost as if justice is only sought for the rich elite - or is that being cynical

Trump's MAGA is a lightning conductor for fascists everywhere concealing their jackboots behind business suits.The left needs to organise and resist their racist Christian supremacism and attempts to blame all the ills of our rigged neoliberal economies on immigrants. Farage is Trump's UK envoy.

I wish the media would stop describing what Israel is inflicting on Gaza as a war! One side has no army, no air force and no navy consisting of poorly armed fighters without a military infrastructure or central command; the other is one of the most advanced and best equipped armies on the globe.

Why is the UK government being so coy about supporting international law? It quickly and rightly agreed with the ICC decision to issue an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin yet remains circumspect when it comes to an even more egregious mass murderer.

About time Netanyahu was held accountable for slaughtering 25,000 women and children in Gaza including over 750 newborn babies. His neo-fascist government is an abomination and just proves how much Zionism has distorted the peace loving essence of Judaism. His arrest can't come soon enough!

With Trump about to assume power again the nightmare scenario of conflict with China re-emerges. Below is an article I wrote during the first Trump term arguing for greater cooperation between the two nations instead of destructive competition.

The ever reactionary Jeremy Clarkson apoplectic again. As a rule of thumb this means something more equitable and driven by the common good, rather than private interests, is happening. Just waiting for Kirstie Allsopp now!
