But our spirts will never be broken

And we will not forgive

Or, because you are an absolute sell-out and you are making money riding his dirty coat-tails. I actually think that those are the people I despise the most. Class traitors and scabs.

β€˜Self-termination is most likely’: the history and future of societal collapse An epic analysis of 5,000 years of civilisation argues that a global collapse is coming unless inequality is vanquished

The main takeaways from this, are things we've been saying for a long time.

Inequality kills, INCLUDING the patriarchy

Genuine participatory systems of democracy are essential

THE BILLIONAIRES AND THEIR SELL-OUT SERVANTS HAVE GOT TO GO BEFORE THEY KILL US ALL

I also oppose arms for Israel being manufactured in the UK. I oppose the reopening of coal mines.

For what it’s worth, I sat on the PLC board of a regional airport in the late eighties and even then, the argument was in favour of regional airport development, rather than growing Heathrow.

No point in creating short term jobs that will ultimately destroy all our futures. Not every trade unionist is right all of the time.

An absolutely wonderful show. I stumbled across it by happy accident. It really is a crime that it is so little known.

The true story is very dark. He was a bully, a sexual predator and lots more beside. Not amusing if you came across him in real life.

Labour, under Starmer and toads like Reeves, Lammy and Streeting, really are a bought and paid for government.

No. He’s all grown up now. He’s a fully paid up member of Reform (PLC); last seen outside an asylum seekers hostel, with a St George’s Flag and a can of generic super strength lager. Still keeps his comics, just in case he ever gets to see his kids again.

Palestinian who helped make Oscar-winning No Other Land killed in West Bank Israeli settler Yinon Levi, whom Trump removed from US sanctions list, arrested after death of Awdah Hathaleen

So this is what happens when a Palestinian artist tries to protest peacefully using his art.

Murdered by Israeli settler scum, who faces no penalty.

GENOCIDE IN PLAIN SIGHT, ONE BODY AT A TIME.

I come from a family which has voted Labour across generations, since the foundation of the party.

Not one of my extended family IS ABLE to support the Labour Party anymore.

I'm an old Socialist who is angry and heartbroken.

We haven't left them, they have left us.

Ben Jennings on starvation in Gaza – cartoon Hamas sends a ceasefire proposal to the Israeli government as famine threatens Palestinians’ lives

The cowardly, lying, traitorous fucks always have a reason not to act to stop a GENOCIDE that the rest of us see happening. They deserve to be tried, convicted and locked up.
