Good luck to the North of Ireland tonight.
I can’t imagine how wild the rioting will be this evening now it’s been confirmed one of their leaders is a pedophile …

[Aidan Simardone @AidanSimardone]

Why is it always "Iran proxy Hezbollah" but not "American proxy Israel"?

[Anonymous @YourAnonNews]

There are cameras that monitor the Reflecting Pool 24/7 - it's Washington DC ffs. There is no footage of anyone damaging or trying to cause damage or sprinkling algae spores or doing anything of the sort. These people live in a world of lies and only morons believe them.

[Harriet Williamson @harriepw]

Corbyn's spokesperson said: "Keir Starmer ends as he started: with lies.
"Corbyn turned Labour into the largest party in Europe, built and funded by half a million people who believed in social justice and peace.
"Starmer swapped political principles for corporate donors - and leaves behind a legacy of broken pledges, grotesque inequality and complicity in genocide. If that isn’t moral bankruptcy, then what is?"

[For Women Scotland @ForWomenScot]

There are two possible explanations here:

1) Trans-ID men offend at a rate of around 100 times that of women and 3.5 x other men

OR
2) Violent, predatory men will play the system.

Either way, self ID is a danger to women and girls.

I’ve just been told by police to appear at my local station tomorrow to be interviewed under caution. I thanked them but said the matter was complex and that I would time to consider the implications.

[Martin @nevervotedtory1]

Starmer lied about Corbyn in the first breath of his resignation speech. That's the real measure of this man, he's one of the most pathetic excuses for a leader in all my 68 years on this earth

[Barry Malone @malonebarry]

That Starmer (pettily) called Corbyn's Labour "immoral" in his speech is astounding. From the man who led a party that backed a genocide, proscribed a direct action group, arrested pensioners, demonised immigrants, cut disability benefits and more. What planet do they live on?

[eva comrie @mickbrick54]

Agreed - so what’s the plan?

[Stephen King @StephenKing]

Nobody is vandalizing the Reflecting Pool, and Trump knows it. This is a visible example of his corruption--a no-bid contract to some crony followed by sky-high cost overruns, and shoddy construction to boot. Classic Trump: I didn't fuck up, it was my enemies.

[Sarrah Bellus @sarrah_bellus]

Donald Trump will go down in history as the only US President to be outwitted by a single-celled organism.

[Wokerati Marty @WokeratiMarty]

Bloody hell, sometimes I just can't believe what I'm hearing.

David Lammy just said Keir Starmer's legacy is “immense.”

Then, even more laughably, he went on to say he's been “loyal to every Labour leader." 😂

[Wings Over Scotland @WingsScotland]

I'm shocked and horrified that over 3,000 of you have retweeted this already. Please, please stop.

[Wings Over Scotland @WingsScotland]

Under what circumstances could it ever NOT be a "serious safety risk" for a RAPIST to be put in a women's prison?

[For Women Scotland @ForWomenScot]

Aside from the obvious mistake (he's not a woman), there have been three female PMs already (even if a lettuce did outlast one of them).

Does "nastiness" include his virulent comments about real women?

[Paul Montgomery @paulmont86]

Scotland have never, ever , ever once in my 30 odd year of watching them been free flowing or attacking. Literally never.

Clarke gets us better results than anyone ever has. We are at the World Cup with a decent chance of getting through to knockouts. Get on board FFS 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[Books Behind Borders @MHTruthUltra]

Did you guys know that the judges that issued international arrest warrants for Netanyahu were sanctioned by the United States and as a result are completely unable to access their bank accounts or do any banking?

But don’t you dare bring it up you raging antisemite.

[Wokerati Marty @WokeratiMarty]

Keir Starmer is absolutely full of shit.

He’s just said, “Six years ago I inherited a party which was morally bankrupt.”

No, mate, you’re the one who’s morally bankrupt.

Get in the bin.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Keir Starmer could have ended child poverty, homelessness and the grotesque levels of inequality in this country.

Instead, he abandoned those in need, destroyed our civil liberties and facilitated genocide in Gaza.

That is how this Prime Minister will be remembered - and that is the legacy of moral and political bankruptcy he leaves behind.

The crises in our society are not going away. Neither are we - and we will keep fighting for a more equal, peaceful and dignified society for all.

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

Starmer calling Corbyn's Labour morally bankrupt in his resignation speech — from a man who defended collective punishment in Gaza, fed intelligence to Israeli génocidaires, and had activists trying to stop it arrested as terrorists. Not a decent man. An indecent sociopath.
