Next UEFA must ban all Israeli teams.

We cannot have normalisation with genocide and apartheid.

Nigel Farage would do the same in Government too.

Cut Public Services and raise taxes to maximise billionaires profits.

The easiest way to understand the system is...

If a poor person makes a mistake, the poor person has to pay.

If a very rich person makes a mistake, the poor people have to pay.

Capitalism is a casino, where are all the games are rigged so the house always wins.

Government could crack down on pro-Palestinian protest chants, PM says The government needs to

You can lock up as many people as you want for chanting or protesting against genocide.

You will never scrub away the truth about that genocide - or your own complicity in it.

You are just ensuring that you will be damned all the more for what you have done.

To celebrate the centenary of Thatcher's Birth, I suggest digging her up and relocating her body to a plot in Liverpool, placing an illuminated dance floor on top, and charging ยฃ10 a go.

We could pay off the national debt in under a week.

Nothing says "I want independent judges" like threatening to sack any judge who disagrees with you, while holding up a judge's wig like a puppet

Lord Heseltine, "I wouldn't touch Nigel Farage"

"I hear of talk about a pact with Reform UK"

"We can see Reform UK, all over Europe. Le Penn in France. AfD in Germany. Same equivalent in Italy, Spain"

"It's all the same stuff"

Rachel Reeves clears planning blockage amid โ€˜good relationshipโ€™ with developer Exclusive: Chancellor says 20,000 homes were being held up due to โ€˜some snails that are a protected species or somethingโ€™

We always knew that Labour cares about little else other than keeping private developers happy.

But here's proof showing off to JP Morgan despite destruction of some of the "rarest creatures in our country."

Let's make that description Labour votes.

Petition: Transparency and Review of the free zones and ports impacts To ensure full transparency by releasing data on governance, funding, and operations of free zones. Plus a public review to assess impacts, such as job displacement and value for taxpayers money

Sign the petition if you want to continue living in a democracy without corporate free zones stealing your money, your land, your homes, and your human rights.

Back in the UK corporate governance is being implemented in 12 Freeports, 74 SEZs, Defence Growth Zones, Food and University Enterprise Zones, and AI Growth Zones (200 bids so far). Palantir and Blackrock pulverizing critical infrastructure in the UK and in Gaza.

For imperialism, genocide has always been profitable.

This is textbook disaster capitalism.

PI Briefing | No. 37 | The Plan to Colonize Palestine The Trump-Netanyahu โ€œpeace planโ€ for Gaza is little more than a blueprint for its colonization.

Trump, Netanyahu and Tony Blair will install and manage special economic zones (SEZs) under a reconstruction regime engineered to subjugate Palestinian land and labour to global capital โ€” beachfront resorts for investors, not homes for the displaced. progressive.international/wire/2025-10...

UK police forces dodge questions on Palantir | Good Law Project After Leicestershire Police removed details of a deal with the controversial US spy-tech firm, three quarters of UK police forces refuse to say if they even have a contract with Palantir.

โš ๏ธThree-quarters of UK police forces refuse to say if they even have a contract with Palantir.
Read that back.
The head of the UK branch of Palantir is Louis Mosely, grandson of British Fascist Oswald Mosely.

โš ๏ธThe rightwing politics embedded in Palantirโ€™s systems have been shown to be both racist and ineffective.

"Thiel was speaking in a personal capacity and not my views...Alex Karp technically says the diametrical opposite....he sits on a different end of the political spectrum...Palantir is not political..."

Louis Mosley is quoted as saying that Palantir's strategy for entry into the British health industry was to "Buy our way in" by acquiring smaller rival companies with existing relationships with the NHS in order to "take a lot of ground and take down a lot of political resistance"

07.10.2025 06:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 34    ๐Ÿ” 22    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 1

Peter Thiel and Alex Karp are both Trump supporting billionaire CEO's of Palantir.
Meanwhile, public and professional scrutiny continues, driven by valid concerns over data sovereignty, transparency, and the public good.

07.10.2025 06:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 13    ๐Ÿ” 4    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 1

Peter Thiel is currently the key speaker at his 4 part lecture series on the Anti-Christ, on the NHS of Palantir is deeply embedded, he said, "The NHS makes people sick" and "I no longer believe freedom and democracy are compatible".

07.10.2025 06:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 15    ๐Ÿ” 6    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 2

Reminder - Palantir has 24 contracts with key UK institutions, the NHS, the Ministry of Defence, the Cabinet Office, the police force, and the DLUHC.
23 of the contracts were given by the Tories.
The most recent contract given to Palantir was to Coventry City Council by Keir Starmer in April 2025.

07.10.2025 06:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 36    ๐Ÿ” 25    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Keir Starmer will continue handing out Palantir contracts to councils, as one by one, councils are collapsing due to insufficient funding and poor management. This is part and parcel of how predatory corporations are making serious incursions into the public sector.

07.10.2025 06:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 47    ๐Ÿ” 19    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Palantir is a key component of the mass privatisation of infrastructure currently accelerating at pace post-Brexit. It is also connected with free zones of which their are 12 Freeports and 74 Special Economic Zones implemented by the Tories immediately after Brexit.

07.10.2025 06:17 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 15    ๐Ÿ” 8    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Starmer's Labour Party quietly signed off on these deregulated carve-outs while publicly stating 'they were not a silver bullet for the economy'.
Angela Rayner announced more Investment Zones to come at Labour's last Investment Summit in 2024.
