Tell that to the families in Gaza — who spent another Eid under a genocide you still refuse to acknowledge.
Bombed with weapons your government still sells to Israel.

My new book is up for pre-order over at Earth Island Books. Just got my author copy and I'm chuffed to bits with it!
Will probably the last book from me this year as I want to focus all my energies on the live stuff. Got some crowd pleasers in it, this one!

Not surprising.
Real average wage unchanged since 2008, two child benefit cap, winter fuel payment cut, frozen tax thresholds, unchecked corporate profiteering.
1% has more wealth than 70% of the population combined.
Must redistribute. End austerity.

I'm appreciating the 'Don't buy a T*SLA' sentiment, it's quite an exclusive boycott though, for the few.
