Trans people arenβt the issue, immigrants arenβt the issue. Your life is shit because of billionaires, who brainwash you into hating or blaming scapegoats so you wonβt turn on them.
If you buy their bullshit, well done, youβre about as intellectually advanced as a medieval serf.

Suggestion for Keir Starmer -
1) Recognise the State of Palestine, as itβs the right thing to do, saying itβs the inalienable right of the Palestinians - and that UK stands with France.

Simple.
Always remember that Thatcher called bin Laden a freedom fighter, Mandela a terrorist and Pinochet a good friend. And Jimmy Savile 'Sir'.

Can someone please explain why it is that too many politicians only seem to want the votes of the prejudiced and the ignorant? To the extent that they are actively repelling anyone capable of rational thought and decency. Why the pathetic need to appease the bigot vote, at everyone elseβs expense?
