Trump is having journalists arrested, I doubt the British media will cover it. As they remained silent on Israel murdering over 200 journalists. When allies do it, it’s internal policy and not for us to comment on…. youtu.be/_LEjxyYwcP8?...

There is no automatic reversion to "normal" in politics. Nor will the timid business-as-usual which got us into this mess get us out of it. We'll achieve a better society after Trump and similar tyrants only through massive and focused movement-building. It has to start right now.

1. Hello everyone, Happy New Year. I’m back from a lovely time, though now stricken by a nasty bug. Right, back to it: In my catch-up reading, there are several articles about the “collapse of democracy”. Was 2024 the year in which it began to die? But NONE of them seeks to define democracy. 🧵

Excellent summary of Mr Justice Williams' decision to withhold the names of the judges involved in Sara Sharif's case. It's one of the most extraordinary judgments I've seen. I'd be very surprised if it's not overturned by the Court of Appeal next year:

The Foreign Office conclusion in Sept was that Israel is not committed to maintaining international humanitarian law in Gaza. If that was their conclusion, a full arms embargo should have been imposed. Instead it created a loophole for F35s. #StopArmingIsrael

If you’re having a debate inside the Democratic Party about the role of pressure groups & special interests in determining your agenda, & making you take unpopular positions that cost you swing states, & you’re not mentioning AIPAC then you’re not actually having a real debate.
