The events of the past 48 hours have laid bare Keir Starmer's utter inability to stand up to Donald Trump - and this weakness could have serious consequences for the safety of British people.

AYMAN: Can you tell me where Iran killed thousands of Americans in America?

ANNA PAULINA LUNA: I said they are responsible for thousands of Americans being killed

AYMAN: Where?

LUNA: Are you serious right now?

AYMAN: It seems like you don't want to have a good faith conversation

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Conservative estimates: war with Iran will cost US taxpayers $15 billion.

That wipes out the entire “savings” from this year’s SNAP cuts.

We have money to bomb Iranian civilians but not to feed our own. Class priorities, plain and brutal.

America is run by a gang—a criminal enterprise with total control of the state and a monopoly on violence. Politics, media, war—all theater to protect their theft. The people pay; they profit. #StateCrime #ClassWar

America’s Ruling Gang: Organized Crime at the Highest Level How the Epstein Class, Oligarchs, and the U.S. State Have Created a Monopoly on Violence

Most Americans still think the U.S. is a democracy. They believe elections protect them. The truth? The country is run by a gang—a criminal network that controls the state, military, and police while the people pay the price. Wake up. #StateCrime #ClassStruggle

Zionist forces are inured from killing children. US supreme leader Trump is used to raping them. What a mad feckin world we live in when humanity is just brushed aside in order to retain power. Release the Epstein Files and bring some sanity back.

The transnational capitalist class believes their impunity makes them superior. But their reign of theft and murder is ending. History will collect its debt—justice for humanity will be paid in full, without compromise. #EndCapitalistRule #JusticeForHumanity

Dear Ursula,

Do you condemn the US & Israeli attacks as breaches of international law?

It’s a pretty simple question:

Do you, in your role, uphold international law and condemn breaches of it, whether they be by enemies, allies or unaligned parties?

Again: Do you stand up for international law?

This kind of ridiculous headline/article makes you despair of right wing journalism even more than you did before you saw it. How utterly appalling.

Sunday thought: Trump’s Real Reason for War Friends,

What's the real reason for this war in Iran? Trump and Netanyahu are using the same authoritarian playbook. A big part of that playbook is using war to blot out your failures and any criticism you are facing at home.

Some thoughts...

IRAN: Retaliatory attacks including on US soil.

US: “NATOs assemble! Article 5!”

NATO COUNTRIES: “Nah, we’re good, bruh. Gotta continue with our Epstein probes.”

So Reform will remove voting rights for Commonwealth citizens but not for Irish citizens. I wonder why? Might it be that most Irish folk like me … are really really white?

Why don’t you just break out the pointy hoods, lads, and save us all a lot of time

So news comes out that the DoJ tried to hide 60 pages of the Epstein files which detail Trump’s assault on a 13yo girl. To distract from that, he bombed a girl’s school and murdered 90+ school girls.

Deform had the Heil, Express, Dementiagraph and DontBuyTheSun pushing its message of lying, divisive, fear mongering hatred, & a tv channel employing its leader and its candidate in Gorton and Denton, & still the public said no.
I wonder if there's a connection between this front page & this cash?
