@TheCanaryUK#Burnham is turning out to be a staggering disappointment
Saying all the right things for about 2 FKN WEEKS
Then presumably, the vested interest, the old guard, the higher ups & their advisors started wormtonguing his ear hole, & he started to listen
Dear @AndyBurnhamGM,
If you don’t clearly set out your position on the following tent pole issues, YOU..WILL..LOSE
1. It IS a genocide & Israel is a criminal state
2. The UK is complicit in war crimes
3. Nationalise ALL public services
4. Tax the rich
Sincerely,
The betrayed left
@ZackPolanski Ok, love your work Zach, but theres no such thing as a respectable paper of a sensible right
This is the core problem facing modern western democracy
We pretend the right wing are legitimate, honest participants in democracy, they've proven, ALL YOUR LIFE that they simply ARE NOT
This is great 'news'
We need much more of this to challenge the monopoly of a compromised mainstream media
Paraphrasing Mehdi from another clip, reporting stories must not mean adopting a central position between two sides, it means reporting the truth & facts, unpalatable or not
"For far too long... mainstream media in the UK has failed the public. It has downplayed the rise of the far right at home while helping manufacture consent for genocide abroad."
I make the case for why we need Zeteo UK (@zeteouk), which launched today:

@DiscussingFilm This'll be fascinating to watch
Not the film obvs, but the debates it'll inevitably trigger
They must know theres a stark difference between a real Great Dane puppy AS BORN & the cruel clipped ear version that IS Scooby Doo
Fine in cartoon
But are they gonna do it to a real dog?
@BBCNewsnight As ever, as always, the right wing are the real enemy we face
The architects of all our problems on a domestic & global scale that have held humanity back in the modern age for decades
Tories, reform, now labour, they serve the establishment, the rich & privileged at our expense
1. The Holocaust was evil, as everyone knows
2. The Holocaust was NOT uniquely evil, as some claim
3. Throughout history there have been other comparable genocides, often carried out by Europeans against indigenous people
4. The genocide in Gaza is not the same as the Holocaust, obviously, but it is in the same moral category
5. The Nazis killed babies, children, women and men BECAUSE they were Jews. The Israelis kill babies, children, women and men BECAUSE they are Palestinian
6. Israel and its supporters weaponise and abuse the memory of the Holocaust, sometimes to close down argument and sometimes even to justify the genocide in Gaza
A data center in Georgia used 30 million gallons of water illegally, and locals only noticed when their water pressure was abnormally low.
The data center claimed it was an honest mistake, but locals were told by the town to conserve water while the data center kept running.
Utterly shocking
It shouldn’t be in the corrupted times we live in
So many of us desperately trying to help oppressed people, giving money to charities, even whilst struggling ourselves, just so some of them can perpetuate horrific vicious cruelty, it knocks you fkn sick

Funding illegal Israeli settlements is not charitable activity. It is extremist activity.
Working with Israeli human researchers, I found at least 32 UK charities who have sent £28 million to settlements in recent years.
There’s a likely taxpayer subsidy of at least £5 million
Me: "For example, do you use the word 'lie'? "
Host: "Yeah."
Me: "You say to guests, 'You're lying'?"
Host: "Well, no, because it doesn't happen very often."
Me: "It doesn't happen very often?"
Host: "Yeah."
Me: "Guests don't come on Sky and lie very often?"
Host: "No, but look..."
Me: "I think viewers would disagree."
Thank you to @SkyNews for hosting this important conversation about critiques of mainstream media coverage, as Zeteo UK launches this week.
@briantylercohen@DecodingFoxNews@Zigmanfreud The right wing do not, & have never wanted the common people to vote
They tried to stop it, they’re doing it again, they will always do it because they want everything for themselves
Never vote right wing because they’ll eventually take it from you, & voting should be compulsory
@OrevaZSN This might sound cynical, but I’ve always wondered why no cancer cell has single-handedly used their infectiousness to attack bacteria & viruses that harm people & instead cure them & make them healthy just for the narcissistic satisfaction of being able to say they saved a human
