- So many liberals on this site convinced that Trump is now a Putin plant. I can’t believe it has to be said but the world isn’t split into two neat camps of people whose political ideology revolves around NATO vs undercover spys for Putin.

- What does it say about the world when we think we need more ‘bruisers’ talking about education.

- The fascists are out in force on X today so much so we’ve regressed to taking the vote away from women. This is fine. Everything is fine.
- Both the Prime Minister and the leader of the opposition suggesting that Ukrainians are deserving of sanctuary, but Palestinians are not. That parliament has created legal processes for Ukrainians, not for Palestinians. What do we call that?

- And that’s on blairite human rights lawyers, everyone. If Labour don’t challenge the ideology of the far right, the far right will claim the ground at the ballot box. Its not rocket science.

- We all saw this coming. Now it’s time for the UK Labour government to decide, will it follow America into carrying out one of the most horrific crimes of ethnic cleansing in our lifetime, or will it defend Palestinians and with that, international law.

- Important moment for folks raving about Trump after the ceasefire. His role in bringing about a ceasefire in Gaza isn’t out of compassion for Palestinians. We are already seeing Israel ramping up attacks on the West Bank and the forced displacement of Palestinian families, with Trumps backing.
- It’s that time of the year again where I ask for your favourite book recommendations, fiction and non fiction. Hit me #booksky
- When you tear apart and chop away at the services people depend on day to day, voters feel the impact here and now. If you then ask them, would you like us to chop away at them some more - of course the answer is no. It’s by no means a green light to cut climate spending.

- That’s, unfortunately, not helping things Stephen.
- Wildfires and droughts are ‘woke nonsense’ obviously
- Amazed at the level of reach at some people trying to defend Musks gestures. The man openly supports fascists. It’s high time the government took action against his interference in UK politics.
- Disgusted by the Met police. Today they arrested Chris Nineham lead steward dragging him to the ground. I’ve seen him lead hundreds of stewards, ensuring peaceful and safe protests for 15 months. Anyone with sense can see this blatant attempt to manufacture a clash between protestors and police.

- Support Andrea for Unisons next GS ✊🏼
- Structural misogyny is a societal scourge that the left and progressive-minded people most constantly recommit to fighting. But we must also be wary of those on the right of our politics attempting to use this issue to fan the flames of racism. morningstaronline.co.uk/article/righ...

- Biden will be remembered as a spineless man who held international law in contempt. From the economic warfare he waged against millions of Cubans to enabling Israel to commit the crime of genocide against Palestinians. He represents everything that’s wrong with the democrats
- It’s hard to celebrate the reverse of something that should never have happened. It’s even harder to credit Biden when he should’ve overturned this 4 years ago. Clearly crushing the Cuban economy was more important, which the US continues to do with its illegal blockade.
- Looking forward to speaking at the London CND conference this weekend. An important event to reflect on how we hold the British government to account and end our complicity in Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

- This week, NEC members including myself, were invited to a drinks reception inside number 10 by the Prime Minister. While every day Palestinians are being killed and their homes destroyed, it was only right to remind Keir of Britains role in enabling Israel to continue this genocide.

- It’s hard to feel enthusiastic about arrest warrants when it’s blindingly obvious the war criminal should’ve been arrested over a year ago.
- How dare you suggest a comedian get some better material during a genocide! >:(
- Guys I know it’s a new platform and we need to build back our followings but Palestinians being murdered aren’t the butt of your jokes and it’s not okay to use the genocide to build up a fan base, you freaks.
- Right but like, there’s a genocide taking place and I don’t know about you guys but I can’t really joke about that

- If you’re sick of the winter weather, it’s time to book that trip to Egypt and camp in the desert with fennec foxes. It’s for your own good.
