We have the chance to cut bills, end the sewage scandal and stop the rampant profiteering. But instead it's more half-measures, and kicking the issue into the long grass.

Israel wiped Gaza from the face of the earth.  Everyone knew exactly what they were doing!  A crime more confessed to as it happened than any other in history. A crime more documented as it happened than any other in history. There are no excuses. None at all

Turns out that if you are an old lady with a banner supporting Palestine, the government arrests you on charges of terrorism. If you are a masked white male thug bringing a national port to a standstill, the government does absolutely nothing, and the media covers it like some lads on a day out.

In uniforms tailored by Rowling The Toilet Police are prowling
It's their first shift on this particular grift
With their ill-fitting caps and beady eyes And fixed ideas about shape and size They're on guard for the non-conforming They're looking hard; this is a warning
A top pocket row of auditor's pens
No need to ask why they ain't checking the men's
They're at large, in charge, and full of hate Do you look the part, or do you look a state?
And if you fit in but you still ain't vexed
Better ask yourself

BREAKING - Emmeline Pankhurst LOCKED UP 24hrs after a video showed the suffragette alongside supporters of Palestine Action, she has been caged off. While counter-terror police struggle to keep up with pensioners, they have managed to catch this particular “terrorist”. /s
The Emmeline Pankhurst statue, depicting the infamous suffragette stood on a chair making a statement, has been caged off for apparent maintenance. This post is satirical.

This Governments branding of protest as 'terrorism' has seen grandparents arrested and dragged through the courts simply for holding up signs. It's deeply authoritarian when people are speaking out against a genocide and for a free Palestine.

“Jewish communities are waking up this morning feeling incredibly scared after yet another odious antisemitic attack.

“This is a time for politicians to work together to protect Jewish people – but some party leaders are instead using this moment to make political attacks.

“I am the only Jewish leader of a major political party and I suffer antisemitic abuse every single day. For other politicians to use antisemitism as a political football, especially after these horrific attacks, is utterly appalling and should be beneath them.

“We must also be very clear that any response to these abhorrent attacks that curtails our civil liberties would be wrong. For a Government to seek to use the pain of the Jewish community to restrict our right to peaceful protest would be a dangerous error. We must not respond to grave moments like this by turning inwards, or by clamping down on our hard won rights. Instead we must stand firm both in defending communities against such attacks, and by confidently protecting the right of all of us to peaceful protest.”
