The English civil war we're taught in school is quite farcical when you think about it. It wasn't a great Revolution. It was the transfer of power from the monarchy to the aristocracy. Nothing has changed! Working people are still suppressed and exploited, under both regimes! 😡
“Ireland didn’t qualify for the World Cup, but you know who did? The Ivory Coast.”
This Irish pub flipped its flag to support Ivory Coast at the World Cup.
Neoliberalism isn’t a “buzzword”. It’s the near 50-year political, economic and ideological project that has brought so many communities to their knees.
It smashed workers’ rights, imposed austerity, deregulated the banks that then crashed the economy, privatised public utilities like water and energy, sold off council houses, handed tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations, turned universities into an unaffordable market, transformed public services into sources of private profit through outsourcing and PFI, and much more.
It's the root cause of so much of what has gone wrong in our country. And it was all done to enrich the tiny elite that Tony Blair now so clearly represents.
The 70% of Americans who oppose data centers realizing our government is so corrupt and captured by tech billionaires that it would rather label 70% of the country “extremists” than listen to the valid concerns people have.
Why was Reform UK's candidate SEXUALLY HARASSING WOMEN online?
Robert Kenyon wants power while bragging like a creep, flirting with torture, slurring minorities and stoking hate, if this is his character in public, imagine the rot he’d unleash in charge.
This week, Good Morning Britain had Tom Swarbrick presenting as a guest co-host, despite him previously retweeting a vile Islamophobic tweet.
Can you imagine what would happen if a mainstream broadcaster had retweeted something saying:
“While smelly communists and Jews in the West…”
They definitely wouldn’t be appearing on GMB.
The USA is a place with no healthcare, but 1000 billionaires.
At least 51 of those billionaires made all their money from Private Healthcare.
Perhaps you can connect the dots.
Anyone else been given a “friendly nudge” not to “tweet about Gaza/Israel so much” because “it could be misconstrued [in the media industry]”
I have.
To the person concerned: unlike you, I’m not a bully, biased or a coward. I’m evidence driven.
Try it again and I’ll out you.
"More than 20 medics have been killed during whats meant to be a truce. The Lebanese health ministry says they're being deliberately killed"
@AlexCrawfordSky reports on the paramedics in Lebanon.
Shell doubled its profits since Trump bombed Iran.
BP doubled its profits since Trump bombed Iran.
Your energy bill paid for their dividends. BAE Systems built the bombs.
From Rome Yesterday.
Despite the intimidation campaign led by Israeli Minister Chikli, #HindRajabFoundation General Director Dyab @AbouJahjah addressed the European Left Alliance in Rome with a clear message:
Resistance to occupation is not terrorism.
Impunity must end.
The EU-Israel Association Agreement must be suspended.
“The world is upside down. Our task is to straighten it.”
Free Palestine.
This is how power is exercised via the media in the UK. Hyper-scrutiny of ppl threatening the status quo from the left like @ZackPolanski. Free pass for politicians that don't.
Starmer was not asked about hundreds of thousands of £s of freebies he took between 2021 and 2024 - all publicly available in his Register of Interests - by the mainstream press until literally the last day of the 2024 General Election campaign.
Old housemates, old school friends, family members, - they even asked a local launderette for an itinerary of what I've had washed!
All this from billionaire owned media because they don't want a party to continue growing that challenges power & wealth.
