I'd have no problem with MP's being paid £80k+ a year IF they aren't allowed second jobs, had to use public transport, are housed in a block of flats near to Westminster with no subsidizing and they understand that THEY WORK FOR US!!!! 😠
@Villgecrazylady Former jewish UK labour councillor Liron Velleman was given 0 jail time for multiple child sex offences.
Here he is celebrating with his dad who flew in from 'israel' this March:

The judge makes a mockery of the British justice system, sentencing four anti-genocide activists as if they were terrorists. As in the persecution of Julian Assange, the British court is once again earning global ridicule.
Many arrested in the UK (primarily in London) for holding placards supporting the proscribed group Palestine Action have been detained briefly, released on bail (often with conditions), & in some cases charged under the Terrorism Act 2000, though most trials are currently on hold
Donald Trump raped a 13-year-old child. She bit his penis. He punched her in the face. The FBI found the young girl’s story to be credible. Never stop talking about this. Post about it every day. We cannot allow these white supremacists to normalize child rape.
English MP Jeremy Corbyn spoke out against the “Great Israeli Real Estate Event”, an event marketing homes in illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank that is scheduled to take place in London on 14 June.
“It is utterly and totally illegal, unconscionable that an occupying power should go outside its own jurisdiction to sell land that is not theirs to make yet more Palestinian people homeless"
@WokeratiMarty We have a fraud who's lied his way into power and lied ever since, including supporting a country committing genocide with arms, breaking international law.
Monsters like him should be in prison, along with ALL the other corrupt MPs who helped him into the seat of power.
Israel has destroyed more homes... more hospitals ... more schools... more universities ... more news outlets .... more shelters ... more farms .... more groves ... more vehicles ... more hotels ... more businesses ... and more animals than any other entity these past 50 years.
When billionaires own the platforms, the satellites, the payment rails, the AI models, and the political megaphones, that is not a free market. That is the private government of the oligarchs.
The 1960s apartheid govt of South Africa labelled the ANC as terrorists and used a compliant judiciary to suppress their activists and supporters. Today's British govt uses the same tactics against Palestine Action and its supporters.
Here's a photo of Judge Quartus de Wet who sentenced Nelson Mandela to life in prison, alongside Judge Jeremy Johnson who yesterday sentenced four Palestine Action activists as terrorists, even though they were never charged with terrorism, because such a charge would've been thrown out by every jury in the land.
Johnson would have fitted in very well in South Africa's apartheid regime.
The people who are calling for Starmer to resign still don't get it.
It's not up to Starmer whether to resign or not,
It's up to Israel and Israel have not finished with him yet.
@tayab_ali_@SocialistPlus I said it before he became Labour leader, Starmer is an authoritarian spook and should be nowhere near power.
Never ever, ever, ever, ever vote for a public prosecutor to political office. They will look at everyone before them as suspects.
@tayab_ali_@MikeDeadman3 It is no exaggeration to describe the UK as rapidly descending to full-on fascism. Starmer and his supporters in Parliament, in the press, in the police, and in the judiciary are determined to complete the process. The fascists must be stopped. And the UK needs to be broken up.
🚨 In more than 25 years of working on terrorism cases, I never thought I would see terrorism legislation used in a way that blurs the line between genuine national security concerns and the policing of political expression and protest.
The sentencing of the Filton 4 raises profound questions about the direction of our justice system. Counter-terrorism laws exist to protect the public from serious threats, not to chill political dissent, including direct action protest.
If we are not careful, we risk setting a dangerous precedent, one that many will view as driven not by principle, but by a desire to shield Israel from criticism.
I strongly oppose what happened in this case today.
The resignations of Healey and Carns show the military elite and arms manufacturers are getting ready for a fight
Arms spending is the issue of our age. The entire anti-war and trade union movement is needed to demand an end to war-mongering and war-driven austerity!
