Palestine Action activists have received more prison time than every British soldier who murdered Irish civilians combined
There is no justice in Britain
They were acquitted on all charges until the State forced a rigged retrial that lied to the jury.
This wasn't justice. It was the death of it in Britain.
Reform want to take us to a grim place.
They've been in their right wing echo chamber for far too long.
The vast majority of people in this country don't denigrate difference - we celebrate it.
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
Want proof Green politics works?
I spoke with @ernesturtasun, a Green minister in Spain's government, about how Greens in power are making real change to lower people's bills, protect the planet and stand up to Trump.
The change when Greens win!

The point of these attacks is twofold:
1. Flood people with nonsense until it feels true.
2. Grind people down until they lose hope.
We know the answer to that: fight back - with hope & a plan for change.
There is absolutely no way they win this.

AI has two outcomes: 1) either we redistribute the value produced, freeing us from labour; 2) we are killed. That could be through war, or it could be through slow structural conditions.
Capital doesn’t care if 2 is the consequence.
1 requires a political struggle.
Tony Blair thinks the answer to this country’s problems is AI, welfare cuts and endless spending on war.
Who benefits? Arms companies and tech billionaires.
Once again, Blair is wrong. The answer is a redistribution of wealth and power and the relentless search for peace.
Thatcher called bin Laden a 'freedom fighter', Mandela a 'terrorist', Pinochet a 'good friend' and trade unions 'the enemy within'. And Jimmy Savile 'Sir'.
Since the liberation of Cuba in 1959 from US imperialism.
The USA has bombed 25 countries, invaded 13 countries and killed at least 20m people.
The 'evil' Cuba has bombed no one and invaded no one.
¡Viva Cuba!
In 2019 MPs voted on including a Customs Union in the withdrawal agreement. It was defeated 276-273. If 2 MPs had voted the other way it would have passed
Among those who voted against were 5 LibDems, including Ed Davey. Why? They didnt want to do anything that helped Corbyn
So far Burnham has confirmed:
❌ No return to EU
❌ No electoral reform
❌ Austerity will continue
Give him a few days and he will have endorsed Labour's cuts to disability benefits, the proscription of PA and selling weapons to Israel.
🚨BREAKING | Burnham announces he will KEEP Rachel Reeves' Fiscal Rules if elected as PM - meaning public services will continue to be slashed to the bone.
Bloomberg reports: "he is explicitly ruling out any changes to the existing fiscal rules".
