A big thank you to all our lovely audience yesterday for 'Worth The Wait' - a Big Script production. Thanks for your support.

Under Corbyn, Labour lost 380 councillors in the 2017 local elections. There was massive pressure for him to step down with the results presented as a 'disaster' in the media and the right of the party.
Starmer just lost 1,406 councillors. Let that sink in.

Hahahahah! Just seen this on FB:
----
Have you found yourself in the hideous position of having a Reform councillor?
Here’s how you can help your brand new councillor settle into local government properly: email them this week with an actual council problem to solve.
Got rubbish piling up? Email them.
Bus vanished from existence? Email them.
Streetlights dead? Email them.
Care package delayed? Email them.
Pavement like the Somme? Email them.
Send them in by the hundred. Make sure they’re made very clear on what their job is.
Being a councillor is not standing in front of the Union flag shouting about dinghies on GB News. It’s reading committee papers at midnight, attending meetings nobody enjoys, holding surgeries in church halls, and dealing with the endlessly glamorous world of drains, social care budgets and recycling disputes.
Welcome to local government.
The boats are in Kent. The bins are in your ward.
The email address for your ward councillor can be found on your local council website as soon as it’s updated.
Feel free to copy and paste to share wider.

“With these bullets fired by the occupation army from behind the yellow line for amusement, dozens have been killed and injured inside their tents:
The child Ahmed was killed while having breakfast with his parents blood burst from his head and mouth.
Fatima was killed while breastfeeding her baby.
Hala was killed while writing her school lessons.
And many others.”

Israel is now killing so many people in Lebanon so regularly that the media has lost interest. Much like it did in Gaza.

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Just met a Reform UK voting couple who didn't know it opposed:

Rise in minimum wage
End of two-child benefit cap
Expansion of free school meals, free breakfast clubs
Help with school uniforms

Horrified that they would lose big from Reform

How many others voted without knowing?

[Clare Hinchcliffe (Rogers) @Subversivite]

I'm glad it can finally be reported that Rajiv Menon KC, lead defence barrister in my daughter's (Filton 6) trial, is being *prosecuted*

Judge 'Injustice' Johnson is trying to punish Rajiv for a brilliant speech in the 1st trial because it led to the jury refusing to convict.

Gent slams Reform UK and Conservatives for attacking migrants

Yet another example of the big lie, Yorkshire Water's shareholders and not investing a penny over the next 5 years it's all coming from customers, funded directly from bill payers pockets.

Next time someone tells you otherwise show them this.

[Middle East Eye @MiddleEastEye]

A British woman was stopped by police at a train station and told she was under investigation after a passenger on a train reported feeling uncomfortable and alleged she had made comments referencing the Holocaust.

Police said they had received a text message alleging she had denied the Holocaust, and subsequently tracked her down and told her she was being investigated for a "racially aggravated public order" offence.

The woman, Fiona Rose Diamond, an activist with anti-Zionist views, said she was expressing political views about the political ideology Zionism.

She said she had just returned from an oncology appointment in London when she was met by British Transport Police at the station.

She also said she believed the timing and circumstances were not a coincidence.

The activist argued that anti-Zionism is increasingly being deliberately conflated with antisemitism in order to silence criticism of Israel and suppress dissenting political views in Britain.

"I am more than entitled to hold beliefs about a political ideology," she said in the video, adding that her grandfather was Jewish.

The incident has sparked renewed debate over free speech in the UK.

As the world looks elsewhere, Israel continues to exterminate Palestinians in Gaza. Days in days out. Shame on complicit western media and all complicit governments.

The Tax Avoiding Rich Leaders of Reform have convinced the poorest people in Britain that it’s other poor people -the young, the sick, the disabled, those on welfare & migrants -who are responsible for why they’re not as Rich as the Tax Avoiding Leaders of Reform

So tired of @RoyalMail failing to deliver on time. Hospital appointments, magazines, letters from bank etc all late. One delivery per week only. Nowhere to complain to on their website. They really don't care and won't employ enough postmen/women to fulfil their obligations.

[kieron murphy @kieronmurphy5]

Hey @BBCNews I’ve just watched your 10pm show..lots of gossip from @ChrisMasonBBC about @UKLabour but nothing about the £5m bribe Farage illegally concealed or Tice’s tax dodging or Jenrick’s illegal funding…why are you protecting @reformparty_uk ?

[Leyla Hamed @leylahamed]

Spain’s national TV giving 40 minutes of coverage to the flotilla members kidnapped in Israel. This is exactly the kind of sustained attention European media should give whenever their citizens face human rights violations abroad.

For those who don't know.

Gaza now has the highest rate of children with amputated limbs in all of modern history.

Something you stand before with great sadness and shock,

not a passing news story.
