Jonathan Gullis in TV flag rant: 'It should be our flag and our flag only' The former MP appeared on Good Morning Britain to say he was 'sick to the back of his teeth' of seeing the Palestinian flag being flown in Stoke-on-Trent

Just a sad man

funny because last year Robert Jenrick proposed flying the Israeli flag at UK borders and the next day Jonathan Gullis backed him for party leader bsky.app/profile/impl...

There's a word for the EU's inaction over Gaza: racism | Shada Islam Europe frames the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza as a humanitarian crisis rather than a deliberate political choice. There will be a moral reckoning, says Shada Islam, a commentator on EU affairs

Very powerful from @simplyshada.bsky.social :
“Europe’s political & moral paralysis over Gaza is intimately linked to the structural racism & violence which so many black, brown & Muslim Europeans face every day”. There’s no other explanation why so many levers & sanctions remain shockingly unused👇

Manchester United are importing a sinister US tactic: Public money for stadiums Similar grand promises made when building US sports arenas are now being used to justify a huge outlay in the UK, with little return to show for them

Not a penny - directly or indirectly - should be spent on a new Man U football stadium.

“I stress to my friends in the UK – Garofalo says. “You are setting this money on fire. And you are doing this to support a massive private business that prints money.”

LibDem leader Ed Davey says he's troubled about the mass arrest of people protesting peacefully &he goes on to say the govt failed to make the case for banning Palestine Action

Every single LibDem MP refused to oppose banning Palestine Action (in the vote they all abstained)

But the view you're promoting is the Reform view, aping far right talking points, normalising fascist sentiment. The only choices aren't trying to out fash the fash or silence. You could call out the Reform narrative & framing for what it is: sheer racism. But you refuse to do that

The Royal Family walking around with Billions in stolen land and property while taking hundreds of millions of pounds a year more, and never paying tax on any of it.

Just shouldn't be a thing in the 21st Century.

It's disgusting, and they are slum landlords too.

A flirty Meta AI bot invited a retiree to meet. He never made it home. Impaired by a stroke, a man fell for a Meta chatbot originally created with Kendall Jenner. His death spotlights Meta’s AI rules, which let bots tell falsehoods.

The right to withdraw our labour wasn’t handed down to us by benevolent liberals, it was fought for. By uncompromising strike action. It is our only means of defence and always has been.

They wanna kill the kids.

Zionists lied to everyone. Israelis never cared about children. Killing them was part of the plan.

It was never about Hamas or hostages. It was always about Israel expanding its borders through land theft.

Romania has signed a $2.3 billion purchase deal with Israeli state-owned company Rafael.

The deal is expected to be partially funded by the EU.

This is immoral, illegal and stupid. We call for Europe-wide pressure against EU money being used to fund apartheid Israel’s genocidal machine.

Cooper made allegations in her Observer article that may prevent a fair legal process for Palestine Action - and clearly thought she could get away with it.

And today in the West we have political leaders committing genocide in Gaza with Israel. Veterans faught the Nazis and now they've infested Western governments.

WW2 veterans faught the Nazis and active service members today should remember this history and the important lessons. There will be a Nuremberg 2 and just following orders is not a legally viable defence.

We know what reforms stand for
It’s nothing to do with the amount of coverage they’re getting
People will vote Reform because they like their attitudes
I don’t say policies because they have no policies.
We live in a society full of ignorant bastards.

Check the rubble created by BiBi , Israel blew up the hostages while bombing children.

By “Terrorists who always start the wars” you mean the Haganah Militias who massacred entire villages and displaced 750,000 people in 1947?
Or are we talking about the recent day child killers in Tel Aviv who murdered 20,000 children in less than 2 years
You sit your ass down
