New MP Hannah Spencer was given a police escort after an anti-hate demonstration turned violent.
The Green Party MP had made a speech at the Greater Together Manchester event on Sunday afternoon in Piccadilly Gardens.
I try very hard not to use the word Orwellian too much but itβs the best adjective for the mauling of language at the start of this BBC News report. ββ¦ an anti-hate demonstration that turned violentβ. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It is going to be amazing watching Labour lose hundreds of seats come the next general election. And all the councillor election between now and then.
All these "socially conservative" cheerleaders should have joined the Tory Party. Now both parties are dead.

They're putting anti trans slogans on the trans flag so that they can say their anti trans messaging while making it like trans rights supporters are doing the violence here. It's intentional.

Text from the US military paper Stars and Stripes:
"So far, the United Kingdom is the first, and only, European country to openly allow the United States to use its bases in the bombing campaign against Iran that the U.S. and Israel began Feb. 28. Tehran has responded by firing missiles and drones at countries and U.S. military installations in the Middle East."

Over 1000 civilians dead, and we're letting Trump use UK bases to further his war.
Britain should stand firm against Trump's illegal warmongering, and stop these bombers landing on UK soil.

I fully stand by my support of Corbyns Labour, and I hope Your Party take seats like Ilford, but Corbyn should have had nothing more than a mascots role for any new party. If he had a choice he have still been in Labour with McDonnell.

There is an alternative way forward: being True - not Blue - Labour. True Labour doesn't fear those who are different. Instead, it demands everyone contribute their abilities to society - and works to unlock such skills
Stella Creasy
Rattled. Guess who lives in her constituency? Yep, the leader of the Greens. All of a sudden she's paraphrasing Marx, "from each according to their ability, to each according to their need".
Don't believe a word, they're seen which way the winds blowing and want to keep their noses in the trough

GB News has never made a profit because it doesnβt exist to make a profit. It exists to exert pressure to push broadcast news channels further rightwards. It is about further poisoning the information environment. Thatβs why it exists.

Enoch Burke: Family members to be arrested and jailed
The judge ordered that Enoch Burke's mother and sister should be jailed for two weeks each because of their behaviour at a hearing.
This is INSANE! This teacher has been acting like a danger and stalking the school. Now his family are stalking the school! Everything the anti-trans moon howlers say about trans people is projection. Most trans people are just trying to live their lives www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

South West Water admits criminal offence over Devon parasite outbreak.
Water unfit for human consumption, 150 people fell ill.
SWW already has nearly 200 criminal convictions. Licence not cancelled, no exec prosecuted, record high customer bills, sewage dumped in rivers.
