Labour has banned peaceful protest for Palestine. It should not be hard for Andy Burnham to condemn thugs.

Dr Arday’s tragic death was the direct, foreseeable result of press harrassment, with racism playing a key role We're asking the prime minister to commission an immediate public inquiry ito ensure we never see a tragic death like Dr Arday's again goodlaw.social/n1ck

I am horrified that my comments were selectively edited in order to mislead people and misrepresent me, but I also accept that my language was abstract in the first place and for that I take full responsibility and am so sorry.

I am BEGGING the BBC to stop calling them “anti-immigration” protesters, they’re racists. If they’re shouting racist abuse, and attacking people of colour, they’re racist. Call them what they are. Racists, stirred up by right-wing politicians and media. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Investment in our security must reflect the world we live in. Starmer's plan won't be worth the paper it's written on if it doesn't address long term threats we face: not just aggressive foreign powers but cyber attacks, food & water insecurity, pandemics and climate breakdown.

Flogging a dead horse or what? On every one of the scary assertions on Plaid’s ability to run a country, Labour has already horribly failed. Independence means freedom from Westminster misrule and a better life for the working class Labour has so clearly abandoned. Labour has burnt itself to ashes.

It's a reminder that Brexit had nothing to do with our interests. It was an elite project backed by extreme rightwing billionaires and their concierges, many of whom had no vote or standing in this country. Yet it was packaged as patriotism by the very people collaborating with foreign interests.

No, the gift to Reform (sic) is from Labour, hoping one day to retake power with another minority vote. Instead of embracing the democracy of the P.R. voting system that their conference has voted for, they cling to 'first past the post’. And that’s the gift they insist on giving to ‘Reform’ (sick).

We could well be past the time where change in direction for the USA is past. Trump is already looking to cancel the mid-terms. They have every branch of Congress. Republican leadership has been against democracy for a long time. Once democracy is gone, so is the possibility of returning to it.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.
