Parliament in a nutshell:
Yesterday MPs, including Yvette Cooper, celebrated the suffragette legacy of civil disobedience that won women the right to vote..
Only to then vote to designate non-violent direct action group Palestine Action as terrorists.
Westminster is broken.

There is no point again doing the big pantomime act where we all pretend to be mystified why the new government is shit, cruel and bent. The entire class of them is shit, cruel and bent, and they will try to crash the bus yet again rather than concede power. We need to start from that understanding.

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.
Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.
We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.
It will never reach you.

Terribly convenient, isn't it, for a generation in power which has ruthlessly screwed young people - house prices, tuition fees and grants, environmental breakdown, hostility to their speech and identity - to blame smart phones for their poor mental health.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

Sorry but wtf is this language of a US "takeover" of Gaza. I've never heard "Takeover" used to mean invasion, colonisation, occupation imperialism or otherwise. It's euphemism normalised in the service of genocide. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

You say 'ethnic cleansing', Trump says 'redevelopment',
Israeli settlers say 'holiday home'.
You can see why so many broadcasters get confused.

The President of the United States welcome a leader wanted by the ICC and officially endorsed ethnic cleansing.
Now would be a good time for our government to defend international law.
If they won’t say it, we will: Palestinians aren’t going anywhere.

This particular line of propaganda no longer works, when we’ve spent the year watching corporate media misrepresent events in Gaza. If you even mention Jen O’ Side on Instagram you get shadowbanned.

Important always to remember that the people spearheading the hatred of “mass immigration” think that the ideal number of non-white immigrants in the country is zero.
