What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country?

Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide.

It undermines police and the law.

The Great British fear factory: manufacturing a lawless London Reform UK’s β€œBritain is Lawless” campaign isn’t about making us safer – it’s about manufacturing fear for political gain

Crime’s roughly half what it was in the 90s, The Bear points out.

Britain’s still one of the safest countries in the developed world.

So why does Reform want you to think London’s a hellscape?

Because fear is their product – and business is booming.

Letters from the rubble of Gaza: Part Three "Open the crossings immediately, bring in food and medicine. Stop this slow massacre. Save our children from starving to death! History will not forgive you for your failure.!"

β€œToday they bombed the place with a belt of fire, which led to the collapse of all the tents in the place from the force of the explosion, and stones were thrown at us. Some people are trapped under the rubble and we cannot get them out, both the living and the dead."

In all but name: is Gaza Britain’s undeclared war? Britain isn’t just watching Gaza burn – it’s helping fuel the fire, with weapons, intelligence, and silence

The UK govt is deeply complicit in the Gaza genocide.

Farage promises to build more jails
by Our Reform Correspondent
Nick Money

BRITAIN'S next prime minister, Nigel Farage, has vowed to expand the prison service to deal with the increasing lawlessness in Broken Britain.

Farage said it was imperative that we have more prisons to accommodate law-breakers such as Reform MPs.
Said Farage, "No, let me finish! We are looking at hundreds more Reform MPs after the next election, and with our vetting systems we are guaranteed to have a vast number of criminal members of Parliament, who have stolen public money or pushed their girlfriends down the stairs."

When asked how much all this would cost, the Reform leader explained in great detail that he didn't have a clue and couldn't care less.

Farage also promised to send the worst offenders to El Salvador, following a successful pilot programme sending Reform supporters to live in Dubai.

When so much of the media rolls out the comfy red carpet for Farage, Private Eye trips him up and milkshakes him.
Be more Private Eye.
