Shall we write a list, in order of likelihood, of who is most likely to assault Robert Jenrick's daughters?

Because I'm pretty sure Robert Jenrick won't enjoy reading the name at the top of that list, and that's just statistics.

Any one of those cops trampling democracy on the orders of the state and arresting the elderly or disabled yesterday could have said no, but none of them did.

And I’d add: as bad as this looks, it will get much, much worse, because these horrible people will never relinquish power, if that means handing it to people they hate like e.g. Angela Rayner. They deliberately smashed the country into a mountainside once already, and they will gladly do it again.

Well, there was *one* party leader whose policies everybody wanted, but #ItWasAScam happened, which is why this question will never be addressed by our corrupt media.

"We must also praise the courage of ordinary Russians taking to the streets of Moscow, in St. Petersburg and beyond, under the threat of repression, to show their opposition to this despot" - David Lammy addressing Parliament.

Right, British citizens being arrested for taking to the streets.

I think we need to be honest with ourselves and recognise that this stuff came *from* government, it is the work of broadcasters, who have collaborated for decades on frightening the public with tales about mobs of sexually threatening migrants.

BBC London: "One of two demonstrations today involved hundreds of people, many of them pensioners, peacefully breaking a new terrorism law..."

If you were a "good person" but the world is exactly the same as when you arrived, if you never fed a hungry person or reduced someone's suffering or comforted a grieving person, what was the point of being a "good person" except your own ego?

It's not about being good. It's about doing good.

Is Britain’s Green Party too nice to emulate Reform UK? The party’s next leader will need to turn vibes into votes

"It's a good moment for the party to clarify that we're challenging an unpopular Labour government,” says Mr Polanski. “We are not there to collaborate with them. We’re not there to be disappointed or concerned about them. We are there to replace them.”

supertanskilii.bsky.social 111 minutes ago Pointing out the objective reality of FPTP and drawing extremely obvious conclusions isn't scaremongering. All it'll result in at the next GE is a Reform win. Good luck having any rights whatsoever, let alone voter reform, if that happens.

i don’t have any rights under labour.

i won’t vote labour bcos they’re persecuting me. they’re also terrible on the economy. they’re commiting war crimes. they’re authoritarian. they’re trying to socially murder disabled ppl

voting labour makes you scum. supertan is no better than a reform voter

Oh you absolutely useless wankers

"Um ... cut back on the avocado toasts and the racist genocides, banes?

"You'll have a deposit in no time."

How does one get a job confecting these articles that are basically threats?

"Hey proles! You got an ass-fucking comin' to ya," is obviously the energy being conveyed, but the text is pretty artless considering the tone.

These tales of corrupt rulers abusing their populations used to be artistic.

AI tells me that "Potter fascist woman" is a derogatory and inaccurate label for JKR. Well, firstly, I was searching for the name of the character Dolores Umbridge, and secondly, AI responding with "don't be mean to the billionaire monster" is very revealing. Hey, AI. Go fuck yourself.

Was a very clocky woman.

Had several facial feminisation surgeries.

Now hates trans women.

Make it make sense.

Hagrid was a description of her own self-image, and I *thought* Dolores Umbridge was the kind of person we should avoid becoming.

Btw, I was searching for the name Dolores Umbridge.

TBF, he is besties with Stephen Fry, who is a monstrous twat.

Why would he?

He's a Tory.

^^^ THIS ^^^

Clegg, who fucked the disabled over, for an already inevitable 5p bag tax, and gleefully shafted students, was a feature of the party, not a bug.

Religious bigotry and squirrel murder was almost inevitable, in retrospect.

Fuck the libdems.

Guess the amount of surprise I have that "The Greatest Crime of the Current Empire" is more difficult to research because of this latest ridiculously fascist ejaculation from Starmer.

Yes, that's correct.

If a statement is preceded by "Lisa Nandy says..." then you can confidently assume that it is not only bullshit, but politically motivated bullshit designed to excuse some right-wing shenanigans.

[Reads story]

...yup.

ITV were interviewing a guy who was holding a white flag in the street in early 2024. As soon as the cameraman switched off his camera and they started to walk away, an IDF sniper shot the white guy flag through the heart. The problem here has not been a failure of understanding.

Made me fucking lol.

The Home Secretary says “This isn’t about Palestine.”

But everyone can see the truth.

They’re arming a genocide and criminalising those who speak out.

This is how fascism begins.

We must stand up. For Palestine. For all our rights. For democracy.

This is just her ripping on the left.

Like the fash love to do.

Either she's a smart writer, in which case she knows very well what she's doing, or she's a daft stooge being played by the right-wing.

It's one or the other.

That was *also* a right-wing UK government losing control and panicking that it had over-reached in its fascistic desires.

I wish it was more shocking rather than drab and inevitable.

"Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. Heroes in a half shell. Turtle Power!"

There's only a handful of MPs involved and one of them already proves to be an ignorant transphobic wanker who should be thrown out of any decent party for spreading right-wing bullshit.

If they don't throw *him* out, then TERFery is acceptable to them.

It should not be.

It's not complicated.

He hasn't been an MP long enough for these subjects to have come up, so it's all on whether you trust the guy.

Adnan Hussain capitulating to the right-wing belief that trans rights are in opposition to women's rights. What a prick.

Nah, you're alright.

Didn't realise that this bigoted POS was part of the deal.

Deeply disappointed.

Khan admitting that he is a nut job about the gays.

Khan says he wouldn't vote against us, but he doesn't approve on religious grounds.

Trust him?
