And so it begins… You can’t appease these people. They only respond to decisive limits. Don’t implement them and they’ll take the piss. We are already in a democratic recession. Labour’s inaction won’t just screw them, it’ll screw us all. Our elections will be bought.

Probably just as important as growing economic inequality is the degradation of news by Big Tech, and the loss of a common accepted reality amid the massive growth (often foreign inspired) of 'alternative facts' and conspiracy theory networks

Kemi Badenoch's condemnation of Keir Starmer for appointing a politician with a previous criminal conviction, would have been more credible if she hadn't just dismissed the criticism of her own predecessor, for receiving a conviction while in office, as being "overblown"

YouGov has just done a poll on whether Brits are happy or unhappy that Trump was elected US president: Unhappy: 60% Happy: 16% They then asked them to say why, in their own words, they felt this way. Leading "unhappy" reason: He's a criminal Leading "happy" reason: He's not Harris/Biden/Democrats

So it turns out they spent £715 million on sending a grand total of FOUR volunteers to Rwanda. For comparison, this is more than you could expect to spend on building an entire brand new hospital in the UK

“We must leave the EU to control our borders and stop mass immigration,” they said. And it was the same people who said that who were then in government. Brexit has simply led to the reverse of everything it said it was about.

And there it is. Netanyahu's govt has put sanctions on the Israeli newspaper Haaretz for its criticisms of Israel's behaviour. Sanctions include prohibiting all public institutions from communicating with the paper. This profoundly undermines democracy. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in. The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers. This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

Those accusing the ICC of being “political” do not fully understand the law. Post WWII, we in “the West” stipulated a set of shared rules that we believed applied to everyone - enemies, allies and ourselves. If an ally breaches those rules, the rules have not suddenly become “political” overnight.
