The day when Lindsay Hoyle chaired a debate about abuse suffered by Diane Abbott but would not include Diane
Diane was wearing bright red. 46 times she stood to catch his attention
Hoyle was doing the bidding of Starmer that day
Establishment racism.

@mrjamesob Any words of support for your colleague who was dropped as her ratings were goings up.
Freedom of speech not what you thought it was on LBC?
Congress just passed, and President Biden signed into law, $3.3 billion in vital security assistance for Israel, without added political conditions.
This lifesaving support will help keep our ally safe and ensure Israel has the resources it needs to protect its families.

The govt and Labour are talking about expanding NHS privatisation. It makes no sense. NEW Oxford University research shows NHS privatisation leads to worse care for patients.
@UKLabour, @wesstreeting need to commit to put patients before private profits.

Heartbreaking, just awful.
Chris Hedges an honest, brave man is a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist who was a foreign correspondent for fifteen years for The New York Times, where he served as the Middle East Bureau Chief and Balkan Bureau Chief for the paper.
Israel's Lebensraum master plan for Gaza, borrowed from the Nazis' depopulation of Jewish ghettos, is clear.
Destroy infrastructure, medical facilities and sanitation, including access to clean water.
Block shipments of food and fuel.
Impose telecommunications blackouts.
Unleash indiscriminate industrial violence to kill and wound hundreds a day.
Let starvation and epidemics of infectious diseases, along with the daily massacres and the displacement of Palestinians from their homes, turn Gaza into a mortuary.
Israel has killed or seriously wounded close to 100,000 Palestinians in Gaza, almost one in every 20 inhabitants.
It has destroyed or damaged 60% of the housing.

The Nazis ship their victims to death camps.
The Israelis will ship their victims to squalid refugee camps in countries outside of Israel.
This is the plan. No one, especially the Biden administration, intends to stop it.
The most disturbing lesson I learned while covering armed conflicts for two decades is that we all have the capacity, with little prodding, to become willing executioners.

We can all become Nazis. It takes very little.
in eternal vigilance over evil, our evil, we become, like those carrying out the mass killing in Gaza, monsters.
Perhaps the saddest irony is that a people once in need of protection from genocide now commit it.
Irish basketball team refuse to shake hands with Israeli team or, line-up with them at centre court for the national anthems, in protest at the genocide in Gaza and inflammatory and untrue comments made by Israeli players and staff about the Irish players
One of the many extraordinary elements of this bonkers exchange is the modesty of @EvanHD. He is, by any measure, an economics whiz but because Trott is Chief Secretary to the Treasury he genuinely entertains the possibility that it might be *him* who is making an epic mistake.
Public funding diverted to boost pharmacy chain profits eg tax avoiding Boots/Walgreens.
Creating perverse incentives to overtreat while destabilising GP surgeries further.
Rob Peter to pay donors!
Gov't 'solutions' to kill off traditional safe healthcare provision.

If Israel carries on with its bombardment of Gaza, then surely every government around the world is going to ask: what is the point of international law if we can do what we like?
Nicola Sturgeon used the following descriptors #CovidInquiry@PoliticoForYou#Satire
Matt Hancock - "weaker than a Nun's pis*"
Liz Truss - "about as much use as a Marzipan Dildo"
Suella Braverman - "Shitler"
Boris Johnson - "A fu*king clown"
I haven't heard of a #MarzipanDildo before, have you? 🤔
