Andy Burnham has still not lifted Yvette Cooper's proscription which sees thousands of good people arrested as terrorists just for holding placards.

Please RT this & don't vote for a Labour Party which introduced & supports it.

There is overwhelming evidence that Israel is deliberately killing Palestinian children.

What is more evil than that?

Uma das maiores covardias que eu já vi um jogador fazer numa Copa do Mundo. Ainda mais sendo uma final...

Messi tentando cavar uma expulsão do Cucurella do nada.

Que coisa de mau caráter. https://t.co/PnJSuOEaL0

O comentarista suíço David Lemos, encerrou a transmissão resumindo com precisão os problemas desta Copa do Mundo, ele foi perfeito.

🗣️"Não há dúvidas de que esta foi a Copa do Mundo mais comercial da história e também uma das mais politizadas."

"Não esqueceremos os preços que pessoas sem grande poder aquisitivo tiveram de pagar para viver sua paixão pelo futebol."

"Em alguns casos, sequer puderam entrar no país por causa de sua nacionalidade, fossem torcedores, jornalistas ou até árbitros, como o somali Omar Artan."

"Também lembramos do tratamento inaceitável dado à seleção do Irã, que não pôde defender suas chances de forma adequada durante o torneio."

"E há ainda o caso de Folarin Balogun. Vimos um presidente se vangloriar de ter ligado para o presidente da FIFA para conseguir retirar a suspensão de um jogador."

"A política se infiltrou no coração do futebol, embora a FIFA afirme querer mantê-la acima de tudo. Fica claro que isso só vale até certo ponto."

"Foi uma Copa do Mundo em que todas as partidas foram disputadas em quatro tempos, e cuja final teve um intervalo de quase 30 minutos."

"A crise tem dois nomes: dinheiro e poder. Hoje existe uma crise de confiança entre muitos dos envolvidos no futebol e a FIFA."

"Nas próximas semanas, muito dinheiro será distribuído a diversas federações e a muitos agentes do futebol, que serão educadamente convidados a permanecer em silêncio."

"Esperamos que tudo isso seja levado em consideração e que não volte a acontecer."

🚨 Roy Keane on Nico Williams disallowed goal against Argentina:

“I’ve just seen the biggest robbery of this World Cup. The ball comes into the box, nobody touches anybody, everyone goes up for it, then one Argentina player starts shouting. The next thing you know, two defenders are on the floor appealing,

Nico Williams has scored, and Emiliano Martinez … who wasn’t even touched… is somehow lying there as well asking for a foul.

The referee blows immediately. No VAR review. No replay. No check to see if there was actually any contact. Just disallowed. Apparently if enough Argentina players fall over at the same time, that’s now considered conclusive evidence.

If we’re being honest, Paredes shouldn’t even still be on the pitch after some of the tackles he’s made today. Yet somehow the only thing the referee managed to spot instantly was an invisible foul.”

Israel abducted a 20-year-old woman from her home in the occupied West Bank in the middle of the night on June 2.

Her name is Sama Safi.

She is not a combatant.

She is an American-Palestinian university student.

She has now been caged in an Israeli dungeon for 58 days — without charges, without reason.

And yet, the same voices that claim to care about human rights have nothing to say.

No outrage. No headlines. No urgent calls for her freedom.

Because Sama is Palestinian, her story is ignored.

🚨 DISGUSTING: Max Blumenthal confirms the US military intentionally bombed an Iranian hospital, destroying its ICU and IVF clinic.

He reveals Washington also deliberately obliterated a massive sports stadium just to sabotage Iran's FIFA competitions.

Pure state terrorism!

🚨🗣 Egypt's Coach Hossam Hassan after Argentina lost the world cup final:

"If you notice, they tried their best to rob Spain but it didn't just work, they canceled Nico Williams goals for a foul they wouldn't have canceled if it was Argentina"

"I am very happy Spain won because they were the better team and they won over corruption. Football won today"

[David Ornside @David_Ornside]

🚨🗣 Jose Mourinho on Messi and Argentina:

"This world cup actually exposed Messi and Argentina, they're not a good team, just reckless tackles which the referee ignores most of the times"

"Imagine having 0 shot on target in 2 hours of playing football, that says everything about them, they aren't that good and if not for some help, they wouldn't have reach the final"

Finding this quite hard to stomach from a country that is bombing the shit out of other countries…

"Anglian Water boss’s £1.3m salary top-up meets ‘furious’ response."

So what do you do with the failed former CEO of HS2?

Obvious, you make him CEO of Anglian Water and pay him £1.3 million, that's what.

"Watchdog accused of ‘giving away’ billions of litres of spring water to foreign bottling giants."

Yep the EA are up to their old tricks again. The EA are charging Coca-Cola £6,070 a year to abstract water from the north of England which Coca-Cola then sells for £30 million.

Did I mention that according to the EA by 2050 in England we will need to find another 5 billion litres of water per day just to keep our taps running and to try and save our chalk streams.

What a hoax of a regulator.

When Thatcher left office, Britain was in deep recession and two million people were unemployed. Funny how that bit always gets left out when rightwingers eulogise the supposed miracle of the 1980s British economy.

Israel bombed a funeral yesterday in Gaza. At least 8 dead and 20 injured.
A funeral.
Still silent?

Argentina are the only team out of all 48 participants not to have a single VAR intervention against them, despite committing the most fouls in the tournament. Do you even realize how insane that is?

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

This White Man is in court accused of breaking into a Indian woman's home and stabbing her to death while she slept next to her baby.

Imagine how much outrage there would be if it was the opposite way around.

Instead we have silence, the usual suspects won't even mention it.

So the US decided it would be a good idea to bomb a school full of children.

And then waited to strike the same school again to kill all the parents who rushed in trying to save their kids......

This is Houla, South Lebanon — before and after Israel’s genocide.

An ancient village that stood for more than 2,000 years.

Israel wiped it off the map.

A war crime. A crime against history.

Dominic Waghorn: "I've done this job for 30 years.. I haven't done interviews as harrowing as this in all those decades.. these were missiles designed.. to go into a building & kill everything within it, & there wasn't much left of many of the children"

The US murdered 120 kids.
