Keir Starmer says what Kneecap stand for is ‘completely intolerable’ The Prime Minister made the statement during a trip to Belfast

Fuck Keir Starmer

- A man who couldn't get us cancelled from Glasto

- A man who couldn't beat us in court

- A man who has destroyed the Labour Party

- A man whose government supports war criminals in Israel with weapons and intelligence

[text]: 'If we are to stop Reform in 2029, a coalition not unlike the one built by Labour in 2017 will be required. Such a coalition would require making deep inroads into Leave-voting seats on a left-wing manifesto, winning over voters who might otherwise back Farage. Focused as they understandably are on winning seats from Labour, there is little evidence that Zack Polanski’s Green Party can build such a coalition.'

But the silliest paragraph is this one.
They think that the only way to attract the voters who voted Labour a decade ago is to *be* the Labour party, as if none of the bullshit will have mattered and everyone will remember which rosette they're loyal to, as long as the Greens roll over and give up

The bit about unions is going to look pretty silly when a few of the bigger hitters with lefty leadership disaffiliate, and maybe even affiliate with the Greens

I remember going to a talk by Owen Jones in maybe 2014 where he was arguing to stay in Labour and change it from the inside. I thought he was wrong then and, well, need I say more?

Labour Is Still the Battleground The Greens’ victory in Gorton and Denton represents the failures of Starmer’s Labour. But if socialists abandon the Party now, it will only strengthen Reform.

Lol, whut?

The fact that Momentum still technically exists within the Labour party and gets an airing in Bhaskar Sunkara's Tribune magazine is so incongruous, like seeing an oviraptor run out from under a hedge.

Would Labour members have picked Sir Keir, if they had known he was Peter Mandelson’s candidate, led by the men who had directed the secret wrecking campaign? Probably not. Should the public have been told they were getting the Mandelson government in 2024? Maybe they should’ve been told that, yes.

Is this how political reporting usually works, I’d ask. Do the lads generally know key information that would cast events in a radically different light, and choose to keep that information to themselves? If it is normal, then what else do they know now that they judge it’s best to keep quiet.

The EU continues to hold Iran accountable. 

Today, EU Member States ambassadors approved new sanctions targeting 19 regime officials and entities responsible for serious human rights violations.

As the Iran war continues, the EU will protect its interests and pursue those responsible for domestic repression. It also sends a message to Tehran that Iran’s future cannot be built on repression.

You can't make this up. The EU is sanctioning Iran after it has been victimized by EU allies the US and Israel in an illegal and genocidal war of aggression.

And they are congratulating themselves for it.

MP Richard Burgon asks the MoD whether it can approve or refuse the US striking individual targets in Iran.

The MoD doesn't answer directly. Like so much else concerning the use of UK bases, it's unclear and we're not allowed to know.

id like to point out that health secretaries are not supposed to be dictating what medications or treatments are available on the nhs.

that's not actually part of wes streeting's job. he has emergency powers to intervene. he's not supposed to be abusing that power to ban treatments he doesn't like.

I love this for the UK government.
How Thatcherite do you have to be, for your whole industrial policy to boil down to:
1. Ask some spivs how much they're investing in your country
2. Don't check anything
3. Announce whatever number they said
...
5. Profit

Tommy Robinson is writing for Jerusalem Post, and that makes some people uncomfortable - opinion
When journalism abandons the debate over ideas and focuses instead on policing who is permitted to speak, the search for truth quietly gives way to the enforcement of acceptable opinion.

Tommy Robinson wears a UTK logo ("Unite The Kingdom") on his clothes as he is seen at a rally in solidarity with protesters in Iran on January 11, 2026 in London, England. 
ByTOMMY ROBINSON
MARCH 8, 2026 18:30 Robinson had previously tried to address “the Jewish Question” in a 2022 article which he deleted shortly afterwards. He divided the Jews into two types – acceptable ones and disreputable ones. He particularly had it in for the Anti-Defamation League – in his eyes a cesspit of Jewish liberalism and subversion internationally.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They're platforming an ACTUAL NAZI NOW

40 far right with union flags surrounded by cops on every side boxes into a small huddle

Bristol Patriots having a shit day out today. All 40 of them, totally boxed in by hundreds of antifascists.

Police turned them around and marched them back the way they came.

Despite using batons and horses against antifascists, people held their ground and the fascists did not pass.
