Every stitch tells a story of love, community, and remembrance. Volunteers across MN created the "Stolen Neighbors Quilt" with 11,000 squares to honor Minnesotans detained by ICE. Each fabric square represents a neighbor, a family member, and a life impacted by deportation. We stand for Justice!

Poor old Anita having to maintain the /Daily Mail/BBC line that Piddington is not a stunt to be met by a majority of callers who are far more liberal & who reckon asylum seekers are human beings. Get real BBC

According to a Haaretz investigation, the UAE's Mohammed bin Zayed warned Israel's PM Netanyahu of a Hamas attack days before the October 7 massacre. Netanyahu reportedly did not tell his security chief, and is now suing the reporters who broke the story.

On Andy Burnham's sudden bout of shyness. thecritic.co.uk/sanc...
The close of his statement was an appeal to our better natures. If we were going to ask Israelis and Palestinians to live side-by-side, he said, Britain also had to be a place where “people of all faiths and none have a right to live without prejudice or fear.” Listening to him was Andy Burnham, who has been strangely absent from our public debate for the last few days. In August, we couldn’t move for social media clips from the prime minister, standing on a ladder to discuss his first job, or sitting in a pub to rate bar snacks. But faced with masked thugs trying to shut down British ports over the weekend, Burnham seems to have lost the password for his phone. For a decade now, Britain has had a series of leaders apparently paralysed by the fear that if they say that racism is bad, they’ll be voted out. It would be nice to get one who had a slightly higher opinion of us.

I think the worst part of Labour's response to the fascist mobilisation is Andy Burnham's absence. He's the most popular politician in the country, with social media reach and actual powers of persuasion, and he's saying nothing in public. He can actually be of use here but he's choosing not to

I'm listening to #broadcastinghouse as it witters on about prepping & books you are reading but there is nothing about the militia style blockade of the port of Dover yesterday. It appears that Richard Tice nailed it instead of Andy Burnham when he described it as requiring a proper response!

Five clay dogs buried under a palace doorway at Nineveh around 645 BC. Each one has its name written on its side in cuneiform. Expeller of evil. Catcher of the enemy. Biter of his foe. Loud is his bark. Don't think, bite. That last one is an instruction, written on the dog, addressed to the dog.

Hahaha. We need so much more of this Private Eye style ridicule when it comes to Farage. No one should be taking him seriously any more.
Wildfire in Clacton
AS temperatures soared on Friday, Essex fire authorities reported things were so bad that a man's pants had caught fire.
The individual, identified as Nigel Farage, had claimed Essex police had told him to keep away from his by-election declaration.
"We've never seen such an enormous fire coming from a single pair of Union Jack Y-fronts," said a police spokesman. "We urge members of the public to avoid pants on fire by at least coming up with a half-decent excuse for their cowardice."
