Harry Leslie Smith, who was born February 25, 1923 into Barnsley working class poverty never forgot what life was like before the Welfare State. He warned to not make his past our future. 2026 proves we didn't listen

Who knew that Trump would make Iran great again.

An attack by Trump + Netanyahu that violates international law on a fabricated pretext, killed innocent civilians & children, destroyed world heritage sites, spiked prices for consumers and sparked attacks on innocent neighbouring countries, is absolutely not “worth it”.

Don't let any Liberal politician talk about Elbows Up when they allowed Hockey Night In Canada to slip from the CBC's hand into a subscription service.

Co-sign. I consider this a personal failure of the Carney government.

Echoes of Madeline Albright saying the deaths of half a million Iraqi children were “worth it” for American interests.

At least Hitler knowing he'd get a bad deal to end the 2nd World War did the right thing and shot himself.

💐ǀ Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel today expressed his condolences for the death of Taty Almeida, president of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo Founding Line, and sent his sympathies to the Argentine people and her family. (PL)

This reminds me of how ICC prosecutor Karim Khan suddenly faced anonymous sexual harassment allegations after he indicted Netanyahu

Grateful to @thewalrus for republishing my latest piece on the state of Canadian politics. Link in next tweet.

I don't normally do personal posts but one of the reasons why I remain opposed to the #assistedsuicide bill is its determination to provide it for those with #Downsyndrome. Section 19 even provides for a proxy for those who cannot read.

My uncle Kenny, who competed at the National Special Olympics in Canada in 1994, was my first friend. Though he had Down Syndrome he could read (I remember when I was very young he would read me comics), memorised Hamlet's soliliquoy and told many jokes. He was a wonderful, warm, gentle character. But he was also very suggestible and needed guidance about many aspects of life.

I would not have wanted him to decide to kill himself with no input from family and those who cared for him, as this bill will provide for in those in a similar situation to Kenny. The fact that many people with learning disabilities were given DNR notices indicates that eugenic reasoning lives on. That this bill - and its EQIA- is careful to include those with Down syndrome indicates its eugenic nature.

It must be defeated.

Carney at G7 reassurance to Trump that Canada will always appease the US on trade is treated by Canada's corporate news media as PM as astute diplomatic rather than fillet of sole.

@CTVNews I think he is saying worth it for the profits made by Canada's oil and gas industry executives.

[Dr. Sabreena Ghaffar-Siddiqui @sabreenaGS]

lol. OK.
Big bad Iran hires little teenage gunmen and tells them - “we want you to target Jewish buildings, but no killing Jews ok, just gun shots at night on empty synagogues to make it look like Jews are under attack. This will help us win the war against Israel.” 🫠
Sure, buddy.
Jesse isn’t stupid, he already knows the “teenage gunmen” were sponsored by Mossad because an antisemitism crisis in the west only benefits Israel.
But Jesse is a troll.
He comes out from under his little troll bridge every time there’s any opportunity to manufacture an antisemitism hoax crisis to justify Israel’s genocidal expansionist “war” with every entity in that region, then he gets outed as a liar, then he fake apologises and disappears under his troll bridge again, then he hears about another opportunity and comes back out.
Rinse and repeat.
On, Jesse, you silly little predictable goose.

Once again, if anyone was wondering why David got smeared by former Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Chris Alexander as a “KGB agent” during a parliamentary hearing about “disinformation”, it’s because he was doing his job as journalist
