“White Lives Matter” is a slogan first coined by Nazi movements.
Now the Reform UK MP group-chat has been instructed that its a slogan their MPs should relate to a crime whose victim’s own father stated shouldn’t be used to incite racism in opposition to their will.
Depraved.
Of course white lives matter. All lives matter.
The problem is that people like Elon Musk and Nigel Farage think that white lives matter more than other peoples.
@AshPolitik Hey Ash you're dealing with the same Queensland One Nation fuckwits who inundated the AEC with complaints back in 2024, all because they could not vote for Trump at their local Primary school.
Jan Fran, Independent journalist:
There is a slow, steady creep away from the major parties. That's a fact. But guess which political party could form opposition if elections were held today - it's One Nation.
So where are the Greens?

Interesting point this - supposing One Nation are still polling these sorts of numbers, what are the networks going to do? We don't have a history of trying to work out third-party debate qualification in Aus.
One Nation hired a rapist. Twice. When asked about it, they defended hiring the rapist.
Then their MPs attended an anti-abortion rally so they could tell women what they can and can’t do with their bodies.
You can’t make this up.
Scott Pelley issues new statement after being fired by CBS for opposing their pro-MAGA bias:
“New management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them.
Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done.
Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.”
When I called out Trump years ago for being a danger to democracy, a free press, and truth itself, I was accused of making myself the story and showboating. How did things turn out? Trump is all of those things. Tonight, the free press is very much in danger in America. Wake up!
