Karl Marx was able to see through British propaganda about the Indian rebellion of 1857 and actively supported the rebels against British colonialism. This was the equivalent of supporting Oct 7 back then.
A trans woman who authentically lives her faith in communion with Rome despite how the church has treated people like her has more faith in the end of her pinky finger than an entitled manchild schismatic has in his entire body
Reminded again this morning of the astonishingly easy ride Starmer received from much of the media in the run-up to the 2024 election - a mediocre and mendacious politician who didn't even last two years in power, let alone a decade
didn’t cry when he watched palestinian children get bombed, or when he proscribed people trying to stop the bombing, or when he jailed the people who support those attempting to stop the bombing.
starmer co-signed war crimes, gave military assistance to a genocidal state, rolled back trans rights, let palantir into nhs, kept hundreds of thousands of kids in poverty, slashed welfare, rolled back rights, courted tech barons etc but you can’t understand the hatred of him?
1 in 20 Catholic families were burned out of their homes in Belfast in 1969.
As one scholar put it, at the time it was "the largest forced population movement in Western Europe since the Second World War."
The horrific scenes in North Belfast should not be used by English, right wing politicians to further their own ends. I don’t ever remember them commenting on any of the other hellish things that community has experienced over the years.
Not to forget how Lewis admitted to self-censoring with Peter Mandelson in fear he'd walk out of an interview if asked about Epstein.
No such concerns here with lazy, haranguing talking points that could have come straight off a press release from Israel.
Very easy to hate your Stephen Pollards and your Sarah Vines but ultimately they're on the same intellectual level as Tommy Robinson supporters and can't help themselves. It's people like Lewis who are smart enough to know exactly what they're doing who I truly despise
Lewis Goodall is a classic British imperialist. He feels sympathy with colonised peoples, like the Irish, or the Palestinians, as long as they are passive victims.
But as soon as they pick up arms to actually defend themselves and challenge their oppression, he despises them.
I don’t know who this bloke is, but he looks like he’s stepped straight out of a different era.
The suit. The tie. The beard. The confidence.
A proper throwback to an England that valued character, individuality and a bit of class. 👏👍✊🇬🇧👌❤️🙏
Much like the grooming gangs the police will always hide behind allegations it was the woke training wot done it but the reality is it happens because they are institutionally psychotic. All that's changed from 20 years ago is body cams.
The British establishment pulled out all the stops to prevent Jeremy Corbyn becoming PM, simply because he criticised Israel and wanted fairer wealth distribution.
Yet Nigel Farage instigates riots and they still court him as a potential PM.
Make it make sense.
remember like a month ago when zach polanski retweeted a member of the public's concerns about police conduct and all of politics came screeching to a halt for the day to condemn such a wholly inappropriate political interference into operational policing?
I am a single issue voter anymore. If you support Israel in literally any way shape or form I will not vote for you. I do not care about literally anything else anymore. How can anyone see this and ignore it.
Take a slave owner or residential school founder’s name off a street or remove a statue and there’ll be endless screaming about preserving history. But when Israel destroys Tyre - older than all European capitals - in Lebanon and destroys ancient monuments it’s silence.
"Notting Hill Carnival with less cannabis & more red & white" is a very loaded sentence. All you had to say was "London felt like a carnival today". 🥴
