Yesterday Israel killed at least thirty Palestinians in Gaza. So far this morning they've killed one person.
Ceasefire? What ceasefire.

June 2016 here. Do you notice how this has been proven correct: there really is no way to appease the reactionary right, who take every concession to their fucknut demands as a new base camp to strike out for more and nastier?

The transnational fascist movement is the people the Panama papers and paradise papers are written about as well as the people Epstein was working with and facilitating sex with minors for.
It’s all the same corrupt group of wealthy fascists and authoritarians

I imagine this will go like Johnson: there will be a prolonged period of noticing things building towards “Much as we all love Boris, he has fucked it and he now has to resign with honour, and gain respect”. And when that doesn’t work, the really nasty stuff will come out.

One of the many reasons I stopped watching beeb news output over a decade ago. They allow narratives to be driven by this policy yet rarely, if ever, provide an alternate view. The papers are treated like gospel even when their owners agendas are diametrically opposed to those who read them.
If we're talking about bias, why do BBC politics programmes, from Politics Live to the Laura Kuennsberg Show, still always begin with a look at the newspaper front pages, which are overwhelmingly biased in one direction. Helps frame the entire news agenda and debate in their favour

Wrong selection and formation today. It stinks of overthinking and not knowing your best team. We've lost all our solidity just to try and fit Browne in with Hackney and Morris. Stupid from the management for me. #boro

Avoiding all legacy media is the first step to finding out what actually happens, and why, in this country.
Is it any wonder why people are so misinformed about so many things when this is the shit that's being pumped into their brains, relentlessly, day after day.

Barely 48 hours for our entire political and media class to be shown up as the absolute clowns they are.
Honestly, Friday was one of the most embarrassing reactions to a perfectly reasonable decision I've ever seen.

The two Israelis killed today were killed when their bulldozer hit an unexploded bomb, which had been dropped by Israel.
The only side that killed, 44 people today, was Israel.

We do indeed live in a very strange country
Could it be that our leaders and our abysmal media class spent the last decade at least constantly roaring idiotic bullshit to *each other*, listening to nobody except for themselves and each other, and that’s why they’re now stranded in a disaster without the first clue what to do about it

We do indeed live in a very strange country
Just like every piece of evidence that makes the 'establishment' look even more terrible than we already know, this will be talked about for about 5 minutes, in very dismissive tones and then memory holed for all eternity. Such is the way in the shitty country.
I suspect most of this will be met with yawns by people insisting it’s old news, even the bits that are about literally breaking the law. The details are embarrassing because all the lads knew what was happening: the people doing it are barely able to stop bragging about it.
