Ex-CIA Analyst Confirms US Is Supplying Weapons To Both Sides of Israel-Hamas War.

The United States is funding, arming and supporting both sides of the Israel-Hamas conflict, according to former CIA analyst Larry Johnson.

Joe Biden: “If there hadn’t been “an Israel”, we would have to invent “an Israel” to protect our interests”.

What an absolute idiot Johnson was.

The dangerous fool claimed during Covid that working with the devolved administrations of Drakeford and Sturgeon made Britain look like a mini-EU.

So he refused to collaborate with Wales and Scotland.

Barking mad.

“In a diary entry written by Patrick Vallance, who was the chief scientific adviser to the government at the time, it was revealed that the government “cherry-picked” and even re-wrote scientific advice, only enacting the parts that best suited them.”

@premnsikka In 2013 the late Michael Meacher MP called for tax returns of the top 250 companies + 250 wealthiest UK individuals to be published. I believe it should include MPs + top earning public servants too. Why would any object? #FullDisclosure #TaxTheRich @BladeoftheS @ByDonkeys

Microsoft owes $29bn in back taxes says US govt.

Allegedly minimised tax by shifting profits to lower tax areas.

Profit shifting happens in the UK too. HMRC does secret sweetheart deals with companies/rich.

Force companies/rich to publish tax returns.

Last week I wrote to the PM with a few questions about his rowback on key Net Zero policies .

Yesterday , I received a reply which states that the PM needs an extra two weeks to respond .

We are in a climate emergency – this delay is unacceptable @10DowningStreet .

Here's some ideas Keir.

👉 pledge to halt and reverse NHS privatisation

👉 commit to pay restoration for public sector workers

👉 re-nationalise rail, power and water

👉 introduce PR

Remember, if I were to go to Israel today it’s called “return” even though I was born in Uzbekistan and am an American Jew.

And if a Gaza Palestinian goes to Israel, it’s called “invade” even though he still has the keys to the house his family is from.

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

Shocked to have just been messaged that as I write, the London regional party at #LabourPartyConference is sponsored by a Buy Now Pay Later firm. And the founder was given platform to speak against regulation.

Have these firms bought influence with every UK polical party? @Keir_Starmer are you now anti regulation too?

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

Never forget that at the same time as Sunak cut the bank surcharge in an enormous tax giveaway of £7.3bl, he took £20 off those on universal credit.

The choices of austerity.

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

Energy companies held onto £8.1bn, at the start of 2023, of your money from overpayment of bills on monthly direct debits, and didn’t tell you.

There is no end to energy scams.

Nationalise energy now.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

The @EveningStandard have written a straightforward lie in this piece.

In this piece, they suggest that we only spoke to younger delegates, except for politicians we doorstepped.

Basic journalism means you check your facts: we spoke to lots of older Tory delegates?

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Energy firms hold £8.1bn of customer money.

Firms not required to ringfence the amount. Free cash.

When a company goes bust, amounts owed to customers recovered through a levy included in the standing charge, about £70. You pay twice.

Daylight Robbery.

Chris Grayling gave £14m of public funds to run a ferry, to a firm with no ferries that copied the terms and conditions of its application from a takeaway menu.

The deal collapsed but the Government wasted a fortune on lawyers drawing up an imaginary deal.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

I worked for a government that made long term decisions and delivered a brighter future for millions. You and your party of crooks and charlatans have reversed much of that progress. I can see why you want to drag everyone down to the same level. Won’t work. Tara

BREAKING

After just 24 hours, the government has dropped its commitment to reopen the Leamside Line. It was included yesterday in the initial Network North announcements, now it’s gone.

Roads minister Richard Holden tells me Govt is now just ‘committed to looking into it’.

Rishi Sunak thinks it's cool to pick on trans people for a couple of cheap laughs at Tory conference.

This is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

[PoliticsJOE @PoliticsJOE_UK]

"Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family."

Why would Rishi Sunak want to do a thing like that?

[Howard Beckett @HowardRBeckett]

When you hear Sunak today keep in your mind’s eye that the Tories have shut 23000 hospital beds and spaved £37 billion on Covid test & trace- which they had the nerve to label as NHS.

Back the doctors.
