They were so keen to denounce him as a fraud: I wonder why 🙄

Young lives cut short on an unimaginable scale: the 18,457 children on Gaza’s list of war dead
The children’s names below appear on a list of victims of Israel’s offensive in Gaza, maintained by health authorities in the territory. As of the end of July it ran to 60,199 names, of whom 18,457 were under 18s. Far from comprehensive, the list does not include the thousands still buried under the rubble of destroyed buildings, as well as the war’s many indirect victims As of the end of July there were 18,457 children named on the long official list of Palestinian victims of Israel’s war in Gaza. Over almost two years, that is equivalent to bombs, bullets and shells killing a boy or girl every hour of every day. In reality the deaths are not spaced out so evenly. Siblings, cousins and playmates are often killed together, by an airstrike or artillery shell. Even children shot by snipers or quadcopters are sometimes brought into hospitals in groups, doctors say. Continue reading...

So you don't know history or geography. Israel are illegally occupying most of Palestine and committing genocide. Trying to pretend they're the victims here is ludicrous.

Israel has been committing state terrorism for 75 years. If a tiny fraction of the treatment Palestine has faced was inflicted on Israel, US or UK there would have been worldwide condemnation and retaliatory action.

cerimu.bsky.social @cerimu.bsky.social · 15/06/2025
No I just follow the evidence and so much of the time it leads me to Israel's culpability. Do you think they didn't just commit terrorism against Iranian citizens too now?

cerimu.bsky.social @cerimu.bsky.social · 05/06/2025
Are we expected to believe they were shot by Hamas then taken to Southern Gaza? Far more probable they were killed in the many Israeli air strikes that have killed 60000. If Israel cared about the hostages they wouldn't have broken the ceasefire when they were being released.

And they got fewer votes than under Corbyn. They got a majority because Reform split the right wing vote. Now Labour are alienating their voters and the Tory vote has collapsed they are handing power to Reform.

In what way is it better to have a Labour party that apes the far right? 🙄

cerimu.bsky.social @cerimu.bsky.social · 07/05/2025
Well he got a lot of votes, especially before the media destroyed him. He actually got more votes than Starmer. He excited some people about politics and Labour again: quite a big task. And he won his seat decisively as an Independent. I don't think Labour are doing too well without him tbh.

It's a paper candidate. They want to give people a chance to vote Green but have no resources to fight the seat. Still, should be possible to put details on local website at least. Greens have no rich backers or party machine. It's a few volunteers holding stalls to raise funds for leaflets! 😢

They have. They just don't get much media time.

cerimu.bsky.social @cerimu.bsky.social · 05/05/2025
But splitting the vote lets Reform in as we see, now they have Tory votes. We have to ne cannier and choose the best candidate in each seat. Crazy to run left wing candidates against each other.

16000 well educated people who would contribute to our economy. Labour don't deserve power. Even putting aside the moral arguments, practically it isn't going to get them anti establishment votes just by aping Reform 🤮

There were only elections in certain places, not the big cities. Lancaster won with huge majorities and Greens came 2nd (often close) in quite a few seats. They've broken through in 3 new councils too which always leads to more...

cerimu.bsky.social @cerimu.bsky.social · 03/05/2025
So Tory protest votes went to Reform and Labour went to Lib Dems and Greens. No surprise there.

When we are divided, we are easier to conquer and when we stand up for each other, we are strong. Only through hereness and togetherness can we strive not only our own safety, but also fight for the liberation of our oppressed relatives, including and especially Palestinians.

It's the plan. Make small businesses unviable, get rid of safe public sector jobs and social housing so only exploitative private sector is available. Get rid of democratic structures and protest. Billionaires own everything and no one can do anything about it.

A little naive? This is classic Western colonialism. You put your allies in power so you have access to resources. Israel wouldn't exist without Western backing.

The Israeli lobby deliberately started with this about 10 years ago as support for justice grew in order to shut down criticism. Any criticism of their illegality was recast as anti semitism. It's so cynical. Even Jews protesting are now called "self hating Jews". 🤮
