Some absolute corkers in this. These people are insane
Comment left by Instagram user on post “Just say you’re being complicit in a mass disabling event” and “people like you kill disabled people in the name of your own leisure and convenience”Attendee at meeting said “A lot of people are calling for an acknowledgment of harm and I’m hearing a WHITE therapist centre the feelings of a majority white and white adjacent staff”After 3.5hrs of discussion same contributor as image two responds when asked to attend the next meeting responds “There’s a lot of emotional and physical labour that goes into this, so for you as a white person that asks for me to stay for another meeting for go is incredibly disingenuous and racist. I’m not doing that”

“They were never going to amount to very much anyway, so might as well make them mothers, it might teach them some responsibility” was pervasive until at least my own teenage years in the mid/late naughts. It might still be?!

1. Labour needs a second term to renew this country after years of Tory failure. On the current trajectory, we won’t get there because we will lose, and Farage will win. That should be nobody’s legacy.

Two pictures of the pillsbury dough boy: once is on a purple background with the caption “he is risen! happy Easter!”, and the other is tan and brown, similar to a cracker, on a white background saying “he is not! Happy Passover!”

This is what I find frustrating about the ‘man of public service’ line coming from No.10 & their allies. Starmer is frequently dishonest & that has been apparent for some time. He is regularly full of shit & expects us to believe it & then feel bad for him when it’s time for the consequences. No!

I'm not prone to exaggeration but this is probably the biggest scoop I've ever been involved in Mandelson's partner took £10,000 from Epstein to pay for his osteopath course while Mandelson was de facto UK deputy prime minister, according to new files more to follow www.ft.com/content/c950...

This presupposes that Starmer knows who his government is for, as Cameron & Osborne v much did & therefore which ‘barnacles’ to purge. They v obviously don’t & therefore likely won’t 🤷‍♂️
