@OneFineDay34@RorySmith Your animosity proves my point. Ok, yes yes yes, right-wing USA (note: not everybody) is perfect, anyone who says different is motivated only by spite. & anyone arriving at LAX will continue to be dazzled by US superiority as shown by those cute tent cities along the access roads
@OneFineDay34@RorySmith Ridiculous? Trump, Vance, Hegseth, right-wing US media, US Nat Security Strategy have poured out contempt&hostility for Europe&UK for months. Musk (ok S African) is promoting social breakdown in UK. But if we react, it’s just ‘Anti-Americanism’? Look beyond yr self-pity, please
"Bread and circuses": To mark Trump's birthday, UFC fights are taking place in front of the White House today for the first time.
While the US grapples with political crises, social division, and the consequences of his own policies, Trump stages bloody cage fights in front of the White House to mark his birthday. This is reminiscent less of a modern democracy than of ancient Rome: bread and circuses—spectacle over responsibility.
A president who turns the nation’s highest institution into a stage for bloody entertainment reveals one thing above all: his penchant for self-aggrandizement, displays of power, and distraction from the country’s actual problems.
@cosmorxn Some history: first country in the world to include black players in a national football team was URUGUAY in first Copa America, 1916. The all-white Chilean team initially refused to play against them. Brazil too complained about Uruguay and was all white into the 1920s.
He is literally inciting racist pogroms on our streets using the communications platform he bought because he has too much money.
Musk is actively making black & brown people physically unsafe in their homes with his trillions. Ask them what difference it makes to their lives🙄
@carolecadwalla To be honest, the reputation of Mandelson’s best mate has been heading downhill for quite a while… Him and the Ellisons’ CBS are probably made for each other
Hearing that an African immigrant with a troubling family history, has had kids with multiple partners and now lives in a country with a major drug and violence problem had been criticising the UK.
Here’s Harley Haynes (23), jailed for 30 months for his role in the Southampton Farage riot. Predictably, Haynes is already a serial criminal who has nine convictions for 21 offences including theft, criminal damage and supplying cannabis. Yet another parasite, NOT a patriot.
@I_amMukhtar Patriots seem to be mostly petty criminal loosers on benefits or posh multi millionaires that normally would call these criminals low life if they didnt want them to riot.
males up in arms about the ‘beheading’ in belfast but when a man shot his ex girlfriend and her sister with a crossbow and then killed her mum like two years ago, i didn’t see a single man coming out and setting busses on fire? acting like male violence is race related is dumb.
@ITVSport@itvfootball Show the World Cup opening ceremony from Mex City… talking over the beginning, then not a word, no commentary at all to identify the music acts, not even Shakira. What, did you think, ‘bunch of Latin singers, who cares’? Dummies
This is the point we've reached: Black & Asian people being burnt out of their homes in the UK. This follows decades of governments & media failing to stand up to racist lies. Every politician & commentator who has pandered to the far-right has blood on their hands today.
> Fred West killed 12-20 people. No riots.
> Harold Shipman killed 215-250 people. No riots.
> 522 murders took place in England and Wales, in the year ending March 2025. No riots.
> An immigrant kills 1 person. Violent riots.
It's two-tier rioting, isn't it?
@gerardtbaker Mr Baker, with your petulant, malicious, self-pitying response you’ve just summed up why the USA shouldn’t be considered to host any international sports event. Well done. So ok, the USA can just play with itself. Enjoy!
@HenryBushnell Breaking news shock: Infantino lies through his teeth and will do anything to get further up Trump’s arse. Though the fact we all know that and can see it coming doesn’t make it any less damn awful
