This is hugely dangerous. Labour are hated. If they lose the next election to the far right, which is certainly possible, they will have done half of the fascistsโ€™ work for them by normalising authoritarianism.

Police chiefs have a choice about how they police protests. These arrests are in breach of the UK's international human rights obligations and should not be happening. Arresting hundreds of people for peacefully sitting down and holding a sign is not the job of the police and is a waste of their time when they could be out helping people.
Amnesty has long criticised UK terrorism law for being excessively broad, vaguely worded and a threat to freedom of expression. Police responses to these peaceful protests only further confirm that our concerns are justified.

Nearly 500 people were arrested for peacefully protesting genocide yesterday. Starmer is creating an authoritarian infrastructure which the far right cannot wait to get their hands on. The Labour Party has betrayed everything it was created for.

This is disgraceful and must not be normalised. Markโ€™s Antifa book is, even more than previously, essential reading.

Thanks for the inclusion - will be going on a follow-back-athon ๐Ÿ˜€

We are deeply saddened by & condemn the attack at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue.

Acts of violence have no place in our society. Politicians & the media must ensure their actions in the following days don't stoke division further.

We must focus on the humanity that connects us all.

I completely get where you're coming from. It's not like the Mets don't give us enough cause for stress on their own! That said, I do like to vent about the state of the UK sometimes, so if you need to unfollow it's totally cool ๐Ÿ˜€ Hope all's good with you.

Exactly! Next it will be "but they'll move their wealth abroad" like every penny that can be moved isn't already sitting comfortably offshore! Tax the rich and stop listening to all their whining!

I hope not! The reason I think it might be quicker this time is because Pete doesn't seem to be concerned about staying a Met and I can't see Stearns handing a long contact for Pete to be a DH - which is what he'll be in the near(ish) future. I love Pete, but if he's not happy, it's best he does go

it's not enough to experience the loss, we need to hang around for the pundits to explain to us again how much it sucked
