Nigeria's Cooking Gas Crisis & Why Sovereignty Matters

Nigeria, Africa’s largest economy, which also happens to sit atop the largest natural gas reserves on the continent, is, for some reason, currently going through a serious gas price crisis.

In this report for the Spearhead, @Big_Mck explores that reason, what it means for the future of Nigeria, and what the country’s over 242 million citizens must do about it.

Trevor Philips is neither sharp nor fearless: he is one of many second-raters who are being given rapid promotion by Bari Weiss because of his long record of making hostile comments about Muslims (for which he was suspended by Labour, until Keir Starmer, who shares his views, cancelled the enquiry) as well for justifying Israel's mass-slaughter of Palestinians. On the contrary, there is now no quicker route to advancement than to espouse such prejudices and to air them in sink holes like the Telegraph

Sentenced and imprisoned on grounds of “terrorism” that no jury ever convicted them of.

Meanwhile, the British government continues to aid and abet the greatest crime of our time.

A historic miscarriage of justice — and a truly dark day for civil liberties in this country.

If a company tried selling apartments in apartheid South Africa in London, there would be outrage.

Yet Labour is allowing a real estate fair marketing homes in illegal Israeli settlements built on stolen Palestinian land.

Labour rolls out the red carpet for Israeli war criminals, criminalises those resisting genocide, and keeps supplying arms to a genocidal apartheid state.

Ban this event NOW.

EXPOSED: The Secret Israel Plot to Ban Palestine Action

“This is the story of how Israel got a protest group based in another country proscribed a Terrorist organisation”

More than 13 million people in Britain are living in poverty. The campaign to cut welfare (or other key public spending) is dishonest.
They should come clean. They are willing to push poverty even higher to fund an unnecessary surge in military spending.

Today four activists face terror-related sentences for taking direct action against an Elbit Systems weapons factory in Filton, Bristol - a factory that makes drones sent to the genocidal apartheid state of Israel to kill Palestinians in Gaza.

Back in April, I warned in Parliament that jurors would not be told terrorism sentences could follow a criminal damage conviction.

No terrorism charges were ever brought. The proscription against Palestine Action has since been ruled unlawful. The defendants were even prevented from telling the jury they acted to stop genocide.

This is a Labour government defending Israeli death factories and stripping away all of our fundamental rights.

Everyone who cares about our democracy should be outraged.

The debate about British military spending begins with a premise, hardly ever challenged, that too little is spent on defence.
But the facts are very different.
Britain spends more on the military than every large economy in NATO, except the USA.

Fossil fuel giants have forced up our bills and driven us to the cliff edge of climate disaster.

It's time to end the huge influence they have over our politics.

As part of my campaign to clean up politics, I've brought an Amendment to ban parties from taking oil and gas money.

Michael Gove - editor of the Spectator, Orwell Prize judge & overseer of the biggest electoral fraud in modern UK history - apparently upset that I called out his boss’s investment in Palantir after he ran a sycophantic pro-Palantir piece

[John McDonnell @johnmcdonnellMP]

Scale of sentences on the 4 young people who took direct action against the arms supplier to Israel is truly shocking. To impose years of imprisonment for protesting to save lives in Gaza is unjust, especially sentencing on terrorist grounds they were never convicted of by a jury

[Ben Norton @BenjaminNorton]

The US government's illegal sanctions against Cuba are killing children, warned the UN human rights chief.

The UN human rights office said US sanctions have caused “widespread harm” in Cuba:
-infant mortality has doubled;
-childhood cancer survival rates have fallen significantly;
-only 30% of essential medicines are available;
-fuel shortages have caused food production to decline by 60%.

This is a barbaric, medieval-style blockade.

What an UNBELIEVABLE MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE!!!

This is unprecedented- people who have NOT even been convicted of a terrorism charge will be sentenced as TERRORISTS?!

Their crime? Trying to prevent innocent children being MURDERED!!

🚨The UK justice system has been captured 🚨

[Jonathan Cook @Jonathan_K_Cook]

BREAKING: Justice Jeremy Johnson has ruled that the Filton 4 will be sentenced as terrorists – even though two juries refused to convict them of violence charges over their efforts to disable an Israeli factory in the UK making killer drones for use in Gaza. They were found guilty of a minor charge of criminal damage.

Judge Johnson kept the jury in the dark of his plans to sentence the four as terrorists. This is the first time in British legal history that anyone has been sentenced as a terrorist for damaging property. It's a very dark moment in an increasingly authoritarian Britain.

Thousands of legal professionals complained about Johnson's clear abuses of legal procedures to help the government's case for proscribing Palestine Action as a terrorist group.

Johnson has now proved this was always a show trial.

I explain how he rigged the two trials here: https://t.co/fXTkUAmIvh

The Defence resignations have sparked a lot of nonsense about inadequate military spending.
Britain already spends an inordinate amount on military hardware.
Yet we have already become the world's 3rd largest spender on nuclear weapons, surpassing Russia.
