Call It What It Is: A Death Camp Words have incredible power.

It is not a prison.

Prisons are for those who, through due process and the rigors of our legal system, are found to have committed crimes for which they face accountability...

Another sure sign that the fix is in.

Ghislaine Maxwell's attorney, David Oscar Markus on X:

"We are grateful to President Trump for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case."

And says they're already in discussions with the administration.

It is the truth to say that universal basic income will, in the long run, pay for itself.

You know what doesn't pay for itself? Poverty. Insecurity. Extreme inequality. All of these result in costs born by all of us, either paid with taxes or wrapped into the cost of the stuff we buy.

The Guardian is now billionaire owned media hiding behind constantly pleading poverty and begging trips. Maybe this explains why their content leans towards neoliberal bourgeois Starmeroid centrists?

I think you need to read the international law on genocide. Supporting and enabling a state to carry out genocide is certainly a crime that this government is certainly doing that, therefore Starmer and Lammy should be facing charges at the Hague. It most certainly is not hyperbolic nonsense.

Lest we forget...

Apartheid Izrahell planned to sink the U.S.S. Liberty & blame the attack on Egypt.

When it didn't sink & the sailors reported the treachery of the idf terr0r1sts, President Lyndon Johnson ordered a cover-up instead of retaliation. He feared becoming a dead Kennedy.

Dear Keir - following #PMQs today, a reminder of the letter we you sent last week after you repeated false claims about the Green Party's manifesto. Unlike Labour and the Conservatives we were honest about the need to raise taxes on the wealthiest to fund the services we all need.

Why suspended Labour MPs clearly hit a nerve with Starmer Number 10 wants to show rebelling comes at a price - but many Labour MPs with concerns about their political direction will want to know the prime minister is planning to listen to concerns before it ...

β€œWhen MPs were told after the welfare vote that Number 10 was "fully committed to engaging with parliamentarians", this was not what they were expecting”

Every pound spent on pursuing super-rich tax avoiders returns Β£14. Instead the government decide to go after disabled people and the most vulnerable.

Time for Labour to make different political choices and ensure the super-rich are paying their fair share.

Rachel Reeves' obsession with 'economic growth' has led her to water down regulations introduced following the 2008 financial crisis.

Rachel, 'trickle-down economics' doesn't work.
