He’s just moved the deck chairs around. These are the very same faces who were an integral part of Starmer’s pernicious government. Not one MP from the left of the PLP. Business as usual. Business and bribes as usual if the appointment of Nottingham East MP Alex Norris is anything to go by. Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice ffs! Norris is effectively the MP and lobbyist for the Betting and Gaming Council. The gambling industry will be rubbing its hands in approval.

They'll ask you to condemn Hamas when your govt is sponsoring genocide in Gaza
Or to denounce the "Iranian regime" after your govt slaughters scores of schoolkids in Minab, and as it bombs Iran's bridges & ports
But when you flip the "regime" script on them, they end the show
Absolutely bat shit stuff here. Democratic lawmakers being forced to vaguely listen to their constituents on a 80/20 issue is being framed as “fear”. I cannot stress enough how morally depraved and cynical and hostile to democracy this nonstop torrent of Israeli propaganda is.
John Healey is chancellor.
So we're meant to believe that the politician who demanded billions more for war is going to dismantle 40 years of neoliberalism?
Burnham has bottled it.
This cabinet will never, ever, deliver the change needed to fix Britain’s structural rot. Talking left and appointing right is going to end in disaster.
The Green Party are the only game in town.
Yesterday thousands of 🇮🇱 Israeli far-right activists marched to the 🇵🇸 Gaza border, reportedly led by 8 Ministers and more than 20 Members of Knesset. The far-right is attempting to secure settlements in Gaza before the next Israeli election, coming at the end of October.
It's clear that the messianic Zionist movement will not stop at the West Bank or Gaza, they will attempt to take as much land as possible, and dispossess as many Arabs as possible, for the purpose of their Lebensraum project.
لن يتخيّل أحد حجم الألم ..
هذه الطفلة لا تستطيع النوم، ولا حتى إغماض عينيها لثوانٍ من شدة الخوف .
كيف تُستخدم الأسلحة والصواريخ الأمريكية الإسرائيلية الفتّاكة ضد أطفالٍ أبرياء بهذه القسوة ؟
عالمٌ يرى كل هذا الألم وما زال صامتًا .
“This land is mine now. Get out. Never come back.”
A Jewish armed terrorist tries to steal land from a Palestinian farmer who has owned it for multiple generations, at gunpoint.
Oscar-winning actor Javier Bardem told Mehdi Hasan on Zeteo that the world is increasingly rallying behind Palestine as Israel's genocidal actions in Gaza have become impossible to ignore.
Bardem argued that the growing worldwide support for Palestine is a direct response to the atrocities witnessed in Gaza and the West Bank, saying that "anybody with minimal common sense understands that that is wrong."
Discussing the political backdrop to the Spain–Argentina World Cup final, he also criticised Argentine President Javier Milei for openly aligning himself with Benjamin Netanyahu and far-right Israeli leaders, saying it was unfair to present Argentina as represented by those figures.
Bardem stressed that Netanyahu, Ben-Gvir, and the Israeli cabinet do not represent Jewish people and warned against antisemitism, while insisting that criticism of the Israeli government is both legitimate and necessary.
The actor said younger generations are driving a historic shift in public opinion because they are witnessing Israel's actions in real time and are increasingly demanding accountability, justice, and an end to the impunity enjoyed by Israel's leadership on the world stage.
