And intelligence gathering flights? Undertaken with no possible idea of how the intelligence gathered would be used, I'm sure 🫠

British Military Collaboration Report — British Palestinian Committee

I deleted my previous reply because it didn't help matters. The UK's weapons provision, intelligence gathering and military infrastructure protection of Israel is on record at the point the genocide began: britpalcommittee.co.uk/uk-israel-mi...

Starmer oversaw the misuse of counter terrorism powers against UK citizens. It would have taken *actually doing* all of Burnham's promises yesterday to even begin to climb out of that hole. And that's before we consider the rollback of trans rights and the ongoing military support for a genocide.

100%. It genuinely seems like at the moment politics was about to turn into genuine left versus hard right, a memo came in to reset back to status quo. Thus the noticing of Farage and silencing of Polanski.

"It is clear that Labour needs the Greens to keep them in check everyday to push them towards the real transformation this country needs." @zackpolanski.bsky.social reacts to the Prime Minister's speech at Labour conference.

HOPE IS NOT JUST A SLOGAN, IT NEEDS TO MEAN REAL CHANGE

ZACK POLANSKI
LEADER OF THE GREEN PARTY

"Unlike his predecessor, we have a PM who talks like he gets it. But sadly like his predecessor he isn’t prepared to break from the powerful and wealthy interests that have created an inequality, affordability and a climate crisis.

Hope is not just a slogan, it needs to mean real change. The speech today had no wealth taxes, no rent controls, no water nationalisation and a strong hint of more North Sea drilling.

It is disappointing that we have a country ready to break from the last 40 years, a Labour government with the majority to do it, and yet what we see are more half measures, reannouncements and tinkering."

Foreign sec Ed Miliband tells people angered by Labour's past approach to Gaza: "We hear you. You were right." (It doesn't, of course, speak to those still concerned about the continued ban and mass arrests re. Palestine Action)

1. I want to know what's on his phone. 2. "This defendant is not charged with an offence of political activism," of course not. It would be inconvenient for whatever part of the British state he belongs to, if this asset were correctly defined as a terrorist, wouldn't it.

At this point all we can do it let these people know how wrong they've got it and wait for them to come back to reality. If they choose to stay in racist make-believe land then that's on them, and we shouldn't let them have a stake in the national conversation. Anything else emboldens them.

Joe B @joeburden.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

We all have access to the same information; these people are choosing ignorance to the extent that they're destroying my way of life. Where do you draw the line with people? When they start shouting at hotels? Attending a far right march? Voting for British ICE? Appeasement doesn't work.

Joe B @joeburden.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

It's really not that complex. Flying the flag has been hijacked from us all by the racists - that's what it symbolises right now. If your friends are OK flying it, then they're OK with the company that puts them in.

Ok, an update on this. It's made. It works. Now I'd value your input on what people think it should actually DO. I currently have a shortlist of 3 ideas. Welcoming more! Would appreciate a boost from UK #comics folk to get this in front of as many people as possible. #indiecomics #webcomics

It's hard to read this as anything other than complaining bitterly about having to do one's job.

Given the change in London politics, Mr Lammy continued: “So for the first time in 27 years, I need an organiser, a community organiser who’s day-to-day in the constituency on doors, with those leaflets, helping me know where the issues are, street to street, neighbourhood to neighbourhood.

If every statement about Extinction Rebellion had opened with "Climate change is the single biggest issue facing humanity, and we understand why people have legitimate concerns the world isn't doing enough to tackle it…" this approach might be *faintly* defensible. But they didn't, and it isn't.

I want the Prime Minister to look into a TV camera and say the RNLI are heroes, that we do not change policy by street violence in this country, and that he expects any criminal action to face the full force of the law. That's it. That's all he has to do.

Nice idea, but it won't make a difference. It's increasingly obvious that the UK is a state with an elected PR team, rather than something MPs have any control over.

When I lived in the UK none of my concerns e.g. affordable housing, climate action, increases in welfare spending, scrapping tuition fees, an ethical foreign policy, were ever framed as legitimate concerns. lnstead I was routinely told to fuck off by most political parties for having such concerns.

100%. I've seen loads of commentators over the last few weeks saying "where have the Greens gone?" like it's a game of fucking peekaboo. Sadly, most of this country is stupid enough to fall for it.

But! I was already going to see the film anyway. Now I'm even more interested, because it's either: 1. A historical story that's not about Robin Hood. 2. An intentional historical story about how myths are formed in the popular conscious. 3. A car crash of studio interference. #2 is 100% my speed.

How Prince of Thieves Shaped the Myth of Sherwood

All this talk about The Uprising is reminding me of a short I made: youtu.be/tTQqi2BTMsg?... TBF I don't mind historical inaccuracies in mythical storytelling... but it would suck for Greengrass if the Robin Hood angle is not what he had in mind. That's my point of contention here. #theuprising

Fourthly, the existence of the Uprising and the brutal retaliation of Richard II (possibly the worst Richard? Though Richard I has to be in contention.) is an incredibly important lesson about ordinary people pressing their advantage. Power will *never yield* on its own to morality. Show that.

Fully agreed on water. Whilst history shows we can have corporations without monopolisation, it also shows money will continue pushing until it achieves power - which is exactly what we see with ongoing deregulation and Trump's corruption in the US. Our institutions are unfit for the challenge.

Do you not see how the two are linked? Conservation will not occur whilst corporations can make profits through the monopolisation - and enshittification - of services. Pollution of our rivers *is* right wing success. Perhaps the time has come for you to pick a side?

Amazing thread, and at its core is yet another example of why copyright should be modified back to people over corporations.
