Trump and Vance want the World to believe this never happened. Once this lie is believed they have won.

In 24 hours Burnham has shown you clearly who he is.
Unable to say the word ‘genocide’ and sticking with Starmer’s ostracisation of @jeremycorbyn rather than regret the bullying Labour heaped on him.
Not that Jezza would go back but it’s clear: actual socialism still not allowed.

This is what Brexit was all about - so rich people could become much richer.

[SuzieWong 🌹🍄🌲🌳☀️☔ @SuzieWo20886208]

Hardly anyone in the country voted Labour in the last election. They got a lot less share of the vote than the utterly demonised Jeremy Corbyn on his first electoral contest.. yet this prick struts about telling the world that we stand with Israel and acts like a god.
Fucker 😡

[andy peacock @AndyPeacock999]

Israel is worse than Nazi Germany.
This is an admittance of genocide.
Blimey.
They make it clear enough even for @AndyBurnhamGM
Wonder why Andy Burnham isn't prepared to make a judgement ?
Israel admits to genocide.
Every international body says it's genocide but Burnham?

All these years, they fed us Russian, Chinese, Iranian, propaganda when it was actually Israel.

FIFA had enough time to move this tournament from USA! This fool is compromised and is to blame for the mess! This will be the Worst World Cup ever!!

[Richard Medhurst @richimedhurst]

The US, a World Cup host, denied 15 visas to officials on Iran's football team.

If this were Russia, they'd have been stripped of hosting it after what they've done in Gaza, Lebanon, Iran.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

It is already illegal to go and fight for or support Hamas or Hezbollah, and those lists already exist.

That’s why the IDF soldiers need to be recorded so they can be held accountable for their war crimes.

[Paul Harland @harland923paul]

The obscenity of the Starmer Party hierarchy refusing to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza/Lebanon is one of the disgraceful episodes in British history. So much Zionist money poured into their pockets their ‘integrity’ (if they had any) has disappeared.

This is the tweet that @ZiaYusufUK wants us all to forget.

Don’t let him! RT!!

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

The USA finally gave Visa's to Iran's football team yesterday, but it hasn't given any to their training staff.

If FIFA wasn't corrupt it would tell Donald Trump that the USA will be disqualified if he doesn't stop unfairly rigging the competition.

[The persistent leftie❤💚 @SCore2018]

@Xmusknewsx Musk is irrelevant. He needs to hop in his rocket on a one way ticket.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

This IDF soldier who shot a baby dead could be a British citizen. We would have no way of knowing.

That’s why Zack is right. We need to make sure any British national complicit in war crimes is held to account.

@ZiaYusufUK Get lost, you idiot.

SAINSBURY'S BOSS WANTS A PAY RISE WHILE YOUR BREAD COSTS MORE THAN EVER

Simon Roberts runs Britain's second biggest supermarket. Last year he took home £5.4 million. That is nearly 200 times what his average shop worker earns. Now the board wants to raise the ceiling on what he can pocket to £7.3 million if targets are hit.

The timing is special. @sainsburys own annual report warns customers are under increasing pressure from the cost of living. Food prices are still being squeezed by post-Iran war energy costs and rising wages imposed by the Labour government.

Those same rising wage costs, by the way, helped trigger 18,000 retail job cuts across the sector in the last year. The workers kept their jobs got a 5 to 6.5 percent pay rise. Still below the real living wage of £13.45 an hour. Roberts got a pay rise too. His base salary alone crossed a million pounds.

Over at @Tesco, Ken Murphy collected £10.8 million last year. That is 420 times what a typical Tesco shop-floor worker earns. His bonus targets were quietly adjusted after he missed a food waste goal. The new target is growing market share by an unspecified amount. No, really.

Rachel Reeves @RachelReevesMP asked supermarkets last month to consider limiting prices on basics like bread, eggs and milk in exchange for lighter regulation. M&S boss Stuart Machin called it completely preposterous. Others said it was Cuba without the sunshine.

Nobody asked the checkout staff what they thought.

@ShareAction plans to quiz Sainsbury's and M&S at their annual meetings next month about the gap between boardroom packages and what workers actually take home. Big shareholders who were consulted on Roberts' new pay deal were described as overwhelmingly supportive. Comfortable position from which to be supportive.

What do you think? Should CEO pay at listed companies be capped as a multiple of the lowest wage in the business?

Link in the comments.

[Marl Karx @BareLeft]

Actually obscene that a business paying its CEO this much and clearing nearly £400 million in post-tax profit have laid off nearly 5000 workers since early 2024.

[David__Osland @David__Osland]

A salary of a million quid a year is more than enough to incentivise anybody to do anything. £7.3m for the Sainsburys boss is just taking the piss.

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Sainsbury's boss eyes bumper £7.3m payday as shoppers reel from higher food prices.

Up from £5.4m last year – 200 times average employee pay.

Govts preach pay restraint to workers, silence on exec pay, shareholder returns.

Let workers vote on exec pay.

Strange isn't how Elon Musk told everyone to mark this post, then he deleted it.

Must have been a mistake.

Let me repost it for him.
