" English Fascism, when it arrives, is likely to be of a sedate and subtle kind (presumably, at any rate at first, it won’t be called Fascism)." - George Orwell (It'll be called 'Reform' or something innocuous like that.)

Backlash mounts to Bafta N-word controversy as Jamie Foxx and Wendell Pierce criticise outburst Foxx calls Tourette syndrome activist John Davidson’s shouts at the film awards ceremony ‘unacceptable’, while Sinners’ production designer criticises Bafta’s ‘throwaway’ apology

some pretty ignorant opinions being wafted about regarding Tourette Syndrome....Thespians missing a golden opportunity to say something meaningful on the subject.
(maybe they need to watch a movie about it first).

Yeah, this is what Farage and his pal James Orr would introduce in the UK.

Nigel Farage accused of ‘Maga stunts’ for saying he was denied access to Chagos Islands Reform UK leader flew to the Maldives for a day despite not having permit to visit nearby archipelago

"A Labour party source said: “Nigel Farage could have spent all weekend campaigning in the byelection in Manchester. Instead he flew 5,000 miles to the Maldives on a $60m private jet, had a moan at the British government, and flew straight back again ..."

Brown skinned immigrants easier for racists to identify....Caucasian immigrants mostly have to speak first so from the POV of someone looking to file up the racists a post Brexit spike in non EU immigrants is just what was intended.

Two things are simultaneously true:
1. The Iranian regime treats its people with extreme brutality and cruelty, and we should honour the citizens seeking to overthrow it.
2. A US attack on Iran would turn a crisis into a catastrophe.

Israeli settlers kill 19-year-old Palestinian American, officials and witnesses say Nasrallah Abu Siyam shot dead in occupied West Bank as UN human rights office accuses Israel of war crimes

& America will do fuck all about this dead American citizen.
Why not you ask?
Coz he's the wrong sort of American that's why not
& any US citizen who isn't genuinely scared by that fact is way too stoopid to have a vote, which now you come to mention it.........

It boils down to what's the No1 priority to Labour;
Ensuring the fascists do not get a foothold in Manchester OR
an entirely unconvincing macho display from a flailing PM?

These folk are daft...clearly mistaking Lennon as a character from one of his own songs in reality rich as Croesus & very much a man of his time (as Elton John mischievously alluded to). I remember another multi-millionaire Beatle whining about the unfairness of it all too in 'Taxman'.

Elton John Rewrote ‘Imagine’ to Tease John Lennon Elton John said he rewrote the lyrics to John Lennon's Imagine to tease him about shopping habits in October 2019.

The apartments [John & Yoko] owned in the Dakota [in NYC] were so full of priceless artworks, antiques and clothes that I [Elton John] once sent them a card, rewriting the lyrics to ‘Imagine’:
'Imagine six apartments, it isn't hard to do, one is full of fur coats, another's full of shoes.'

This is truly fucking sickening.

And one of the main reasons I have come to loathe Starmer is is quiet walking back of the party's commitment to Leveson 2.0

Utterly disgraceful.

2 points on that;
1) No way was it a coincidence that he was lifted on his Birthday
2) No way was it a co-incidence that both HRH & HRH were out in public on that day demonstrating that the show must go on.
This was a curated collaring.

I hope Polly isn't making the classic (some might say arrogant) Remainer mistake of insinuating that any result other than the one they want will be proof that that the electorate are the opposite of 'wise'?

Best to make that claim after the event.

TBF 'the point' as far as I can see from Ukraine POV is to make it harder for the tangerine twat to disengage entirely (which is what he would like to do) This faux negotiating keeps US at the table & at least some access to US ordnance...but to report it as if talks were meaningful is embarrassing.

'Difficult' Russia-Ukraine peace talks end without breakthrough The second day of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia ended after just two hours.

Everybody knows that Putin has abso-fuckin-lutely no intention of progressing peace & that Ukraine feels obliged to feign interest to keep the Tangerine Twat from going off on one again! We know it, they know it so why does the BBC insist on pretending the talks are real? www.bbc.com/news/article...
