Israeli football hooligans terrorise locals, rip down flags & chant fascist songs
Football hooligans then get into fights with locals
Israel & supporters claim this is akin to Europe’s darkest hour or pogrom for Jews
Both minimising The Holocaust & insulting your intelligence

The president of the @OxfordUnion asked about Israel’s right to self defence. Here is the answer in 30 seconds.

They block aid. They ban return. They destroy homes. This isn’t a conflict—it’s ethnic cleansing. It’s genocide.
Israel has blocked aid from entering northern Gaza and has said clearly that Palestinians will not be allowed to return home.
This is genocide.
This is ethnic cleansing.

At least we (pretty much) all agree on something 🙏

America…it’s like watching the Fall of Rome. There is no other democracy, from Norway to New Zealand, which would elect as its leader a rapist, felon, liar, ignoramus, misogynist, vindictive bully and charlatan.

I know that, like me, many of you will be feeling fearful this morning. So on this dark day, we stand in solidarity with all those who dreaded this moment and must now live with its consequences, including those in Gaza and in Ukraine. The struggle for truth, peace, and justice goes on.
I recommit myself and my party to that struggle this morning.
The politics of hatred will not win. Together, we will go forward with a renewed sense of connection with all those around the world who feel shaken by this election result but determined to continue to defend what matters: to build a safe, just, and inclusive green future.
Together we curse the darkness, yes, but we also light candles, to mark our unity and the shared power of radical hope that comes from resistance: resistance to Trump, resistance to fascism, and resistance to all those who seeks to divide us.

Bezos saw it coming & did what he needed to do. Who knows what comes next but this now is oligarchy. It’s the cojoining of state power & business interests. It’s 90s Russia. It’s the chaos before the crackdown. It’s Musk & Thiel & every cryptobro chancer in Silicon Valley

We have to accept that millions of Americans are misogynistic, climate change denying, racist fucking lunatics who don't give a single fuck about anything apart from the price of gas in their tanks.
Having done that we need to stop caring about America and build a better Europe.

Re: Daily Mail story today. Yes, if Trump comes to the UK I will be out protesting on the streets. He is a racist KKK and Nazi sympathiser.

2 out of every 3 frontline NHS staff don’t have access to a staff room
We think it’s completely unacceptable for staff to work such long shifts, on their feet, without appropriate rest facilities

Keir Starmer and tuition fees, a timeline:
1982: goes to Leeds for a free law degree
2017, 19: gets elected as a Labour MP on manifestos promising free education, on which he signed off
2020: gets elected Labour Leader pledging to abolish tuition fees
2024: raises tuition fees

Don't get this trending during the US Election.
It would really make Janey Godley RIP smile, and really piss off Trump and Elon Musk.

Let's send a clear message to @DavidLammy and @Keir_Starmer.
End arms sales to Israel NOW!

There are calls for Lord Eric Pickles to resign from the House of Lords he complained to the Grenfell Inquiry that he was missing important lunches.
Like if he needs to resign.
RT if he needs to be fired.

-@BBCNews have gone beyond disrespectful. It is insulting and despicable.
People aren't 'leaving' they are fleeing and being forced out.
People aren't 'dying' they are being killed.
It's not 'allegedly' Isreal. It is Isreal.
The BBC should be ashamed.
RT if you agree.
