Arresting 400+ people for the "terrorist" offence of protesting against mass murder while large segments of the right are openly encouraging riots against immigrants is a tale of a very unhappy country and government.

The people who brought you Brexit on a promise of βcontrolβ now threaten civil unrest and frothing racism as govt policyβ¦
For love of god can we just stop listening to anything they have to say. They represent nothing but inadequacy and failure. Surely our country can do better than this.

They represent the VERY LOUD minority who would rather blame their own failures on brown people than look in the mirror. We are better than this⦠and it starts with the media not swarming around Farage like fucking moths to a light.

I don't think China is worried, at all. They would most certainly "shop" with Brazil or Argentina before calling on the US. Also, F off with your LIES SOCIAL posts, trying to pit your mob against other countries & individuals

Who talks that way? He sounds like pub bore rattling on about how they'd run the country as the rest of the customers slide away diplomatically. Definitely not someone you'd take seriously as an insightful, trustworthy person to be the guiding hand on the reins of any government.

Ray Brooks, voice of Mr Benn, dies aged 86
He also starred in ground-breaking drama Cathy Come Home, as well as primetime shows Big Deal and EastEnders.
Sad news.
Sounds like my kind of guy.
When starting out as an actor, if someone had said you could have a career like Ray Brooksβ¦ youβd have snatched their hand off.
Well played, Ray! π
RIP.

An MPβs migrant scare collapsed after his βdinghy of illegalsβ turned out to be charity rowers
113 miles from Calais. Four oars. Ex-Royal Marine on board.
Yes, Rupert, definitely a migrant dinghy.

He didn't "kick off".
It's not a "jibe".
He said, with dignity and restraint, what we were all thinking - that Al-Obeid didn't just "die" - he, like tens of thousand of other innocent civilians, was killed by Israel as part of its ongoing programme of ethnic cleansing.

Only a theory but I think he was set up. Promised more money than he could imagine then shot so he could never tell. The head of Secret Service was fired-that day and the incident was never spoke of again. The victims were collateral damage.
