@AmericaRecharge Andy Burnham WILL become Prime Minister. He wonโt be any worse than Keir Starmer. Also I would rather have Andy Burnham as Prime Minister than Nigel Farage or Rupert Lowe any day of the week.
@AmericaRecharge@English91265842 NO. Reform UK are led by a Snake Oil Salesman and now Reform UKโs opinion poll ratings are going DOWN thank goodness.
I agree, but also remember that Rupert Lowe outfit Restore Britain are putting up a candidate. This is just pure spite and jealousy. Rupert Lowe and Restore are just cutting off their noses to spite their faces. Rupert Lowe and Restore Britain are Andy Burnhamโs, Keir Starmerโs and Labourโs useful idiots !
So true. Whether or not others see it the same way, itโs valid to call out tactics that feel more about restriction than persuasion.
Andy Burnham should have been allowed to stand in the Gorton and Denton by-election.
Keir Starmer's only remaining political strategy is to try and physically stop people voting for his opponents. And when that's your only strategy, you're done.
JK Rowlingโs words cut through the noise to expose a troubling double standard โ one where some people only speak out against oppression when it suits their ideological alliances. Her message is clear:
Human rights arenโt conditional
Solidarity shouldnโt be selective
Silence in the face of brutality is complicity, no matter who the oppressor is
Freedom, dignity, and justice must be defended universally, not just when itโs politically convenient.
And in the context of Iran, where women and protesters have risked everything to demand liberty, that solidarity matters. Itโs not just symbolic โ itโs a stand against indifference.
If you claim to support human rights yet canโt bring yourself to show solidarity with those fighting for their liberty in Iran, youโve revealed yourself. You donโt give a damn about people being oppressed and brutalised so long as itโs being done by the enemies of your enemies.
