Book Burner Cooper will literally be gagging to burn Sally's books. Massive stiffy for it.

Fook me. Starmer (holds a screwdriver, drooling): 'I assure you sir that we definitely haven't turned the clock back on this car. You clearly have an eye for a bargain.'

BBC under pressure to pull Sally Rooney dramas over vow to fund Palestine Action Former anti-extremism tsar Lord Walney warns the corporation and book publisher Faber & Faber that they may have to 'break ties' with the Irish author

Not content with his corrupt involvement in the silencing of protestors, Israel Arms lobbyist Lord Walney is now trying to ban TV shows associated with Sally Rooney.

Is this the modern equivalent of book-burning? Now where have we seen that beforeโ€ฆ

so the only legislative victories of labour, the uk's "centre-left" party are thus far
1. legal to kill grandma
2. all trans people banned

"Coming over here to steal our benefits"... what fucking benefits?

Universal credit is a PITIFUL sum of money to live off in the midst of a "cost of living crisis."

ยฃ400.14 a month.

That's no existence at all.

Folk on benefits aren't living the high life - they are struggling daily to survive.

Stop spreading this Hasbara bullshit. Anyone whoโ€™s read an Israeli poll on the issue knows these people donโ€™t care about the Palestinians. They want the hostages back then the genocide to continue. This is propaganda for idiot liberals who think this is all just BiBiโ€™s fault.

Trump says whatever he thinks makes him look good in the moment. Zero prep and zero plan. This meeting and the Alaska meeting both as floppy as his orange ball sack. No results.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social
I listened to your interview with Mark Steel and I found myself agreeing with everything you said.
As a member of The Green Party (I first joined in 1989), I will be voting for you.
Good luck.

Birmingham roundabouts vandalised to look like St George's flags At least six roundabouts are affected as police say reports of criminal damage will be investigated.

Under book burner Cooper this would be classed as terrorism if Palestine Action had done it, so what will she be doing about it? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
