It’s fun to have a laugh at Farage but this election is him mobilising his base to fight off a political challenge.

A few days ago, Dr Hussam Abu Safiyeh said these words to his lawyer: “This is the last time you will see me...they brought me here to kill me. I don't see myself surviving. This is the end”.

This man is a paediatrician.

@bat020 One of ours disappeared for about 36 hours at about this time last year when the weather was similar and made his own way back. He seemed a bit shaken up but quickly recovered. It’s what they do. A neighbour’s vanished for a fortnight before returning.

@BeattieDoug The classical definition of fascism is that it is a mass movement of the petit bourgeoisie mobilised by a section of the ruling class to destroy the organisations of the working class. Sinn Fein don’t really match that. Craig’s Vanguard and O’Duffy’s Blueshirts fit the bill more.

@kulture_watch @MidiaPetronilla And I have no doubt his decisive battles, superb flanking movements and books on strategy are closely studied in the elite military academies of the world alongside Napoleon and Zhukov.

@kulture_watch @MidiaPetronilla “Lieutenant colonel - Officers of this rank typically command battalions or regiments of 300 to 1,200 personnel or serve in high-level staff and advisory roles”. It’s a grandiose title for the boss of a sectarian murder gang.

@bbclaurak @hzeffman A more diligent interviewer would have pointed out that he got 500 000 votes fewer than Corbyn.

@SluggerOToole While it’s true that the DUP has a particular problem, every political organisation of any size on the left and right tends to view women as collateral damage. Republicans knew about Scappaticci and the SWP protected one of its leaders.

@BelTel To be fair, the majority of the people who will be present at the bonfire won’t have a problem with Wright’s ideology and methods. It clarifies things when they are honest about their beliefs with gestures like this.

@SteveNickSmith It’s a great song and I was taught it in primary school.

[Liam MacU @LiamMacU]

@BelTel It’s obvious from the report that he was referring to some members of the crowd who were wearing Kneecap gear. I saw their Crystal Palace show on Saturday. 25 000 people all having a great time and zero trouble.

Whilst publicly there is a ceasefire in #Gaza , the reality is that Israel is still blocking life saving aid from entering. I visited the warehouses in Jordan housing UK donations to see the situation for myself.

@bat020 Some thoughts on Donaldson and the similarities between dogmatic Marxism and dogmatic Christianity when women become collateral damage.

[Liam MacU @LiamMacU]

@revcommunists The biggest problem with the article is that it doesn’t explain that every male dominated organisation is capable of treating women as collateral damage. The left is not immune.

[Liam MacU @LiamMacU]

The RCP published a crass article implying that only the rich and powerful commit crimes against women like those of Jeffrey Donaldson. They are possible in every male dominated organisation.

@BelTel Much about their performance was very moving. It was also joyful and uncompromising. In a few years they have progressed from playing to 200 people in a London pub to 20 000.

@bat020 It looks like the crimes for which he was sentenced were a secret between him, his wife, the survivors and a couple of Christian counsellors. That he was a drunk and sex pest was widely known and it’s only now people are opening up. It has parallels with Delta and the SWP.

The Mary Wallopers tribute to Linton Kwesi Johnson. 98% of the audience were not born when the track was recorded. A piece on their superb set follows.
