His support for a genocide was certainly too far.
Howabout investigating Starmerās support for a genocide?

New UKCEH research shows that organo-mineral soils lose carbon stability when droughts keep coming, even after they rewet. Frequency, not duration, does the most damage.

The findings mirror warnings from the Global Tipping Points Report: drying soils risk shifting from carbon sinks to carbon sources.

You've all heard of the Resource Curse: countries are impoverished by rich resources in their territories, as these trigger colonial looting.
Now we see the Base Curse: if you host a US base, you don't enhance your security. You make yourself a target.

The media is not your friend.
