I like this video a lot. Even if you don’t play computer games or haven’t played Elden Ring - the meditation in this video on ephemeral beauty and decay moves me every time

By ratting on Jesse Ventura's unionization efforts, Hulk Hogan denied all of his coworkers, and generations of performers who came after him, insurance and a retirement fund, and in that, shares in responsibility for the early deaths of several other wrestlers.

The fascists targeting hotels with Asylum Seekers in are cynical grifters who don’t care about public services, housing or sexual abuse - unless they can frame it as a race war. These people never joined anti austerity demos or campaigns to improve housing. They are manipulating people

A new left party emerges? A new left party is on the cards, but it is unclear what is going on behind the scenes. Simon Hannah looks at the bigger issues a new party needs to address.

Is there going to be a new left party? And if so on what political basis?

Rachel Reeves tears are worthless. Shameful neoliberal hack. She is willing to inflict huge pain on the the rest of us for her economic ideology . Now she cries for her career not the thousands whose lives she is ruining.

Some really crass stuff from red-brown types about what are productive jobs. What does Marx say? “In order to labour productively, it is no longer necessary for you to do manual work yourself; enough, if you are an organ of the collective labourer, and perform one of its subordinate functions.”

Declaring Palestine Action a terrorist group is terrifying overreach by the government writes

It's the deep state!

"Mass casualty event"

Israel detroys healthcare (and homes and people) in Gaza and that is all apparently legitimate because of Hamas. Then Iran damages one Israeli hospital and it is all out war and targetted assassinations? I guess this shows you how power works. The rule of law is dead.

This on the exploitation at the heart of Hollywood is very good

"Hollywood needs the fantasy of the dreamers.At the core of it all, though, it’s the same old-fashioned exploitation keeping the machine chugging along. A dream factory, after all, is still a factory"

Climate capitalism won’t save us To assume 'green capitalism' is more progressive than its fossil opposition would be a critical mistake.

As Blair said years ago “I don’t agree with the left I wouldn’t take Labour down that path even if it worked”

Labour lost pandering to potential Reform voters who ended up voting Reform anyway. You don’t beat the populist authoritarian right by just repeating their policies.

Sadly Labour won’t learn this lesson. They are incapable of doing what’s right

Andor – Resistance and Rebellion (a review) Andor is a stunning Star Wars series about revolutionaries defying an empire. Simon Hannah reviews this new show - the first part is spoiler free, the second half has spoilers but deals with the show ...

Good analysis on most things but don’t agree with the arguments around Syria.

There is no such thing as an ‘illegal immigrant’ | Mehdi Hasan It is a factually inaccurate and totally, utterly wrong to say that undocumented people are ‘illegal’ and are ‘criminals’

“There is no such thing as an ‘illegal immigrant’”

My myth-busting piece for The Guardian today arguing that it is factually inaccurate & totally, utterly wrong to say that undocumented people are ‘illegal’ & are automatically ‘criminals’.
