Remember when Yvette Cooper said that the intelligence which justified Palestine Action being proscribed as a terrorist organisation definitely existed but she couldn't tell us what it is and we'd just have to trust her on it

I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...

Why is the outrage hollow? Difficult not to read this as "these lefties must know we aren't going to stop the mass killing, so why do they insist on going on about it? They made their token protest so they could say they were against it, now it's time to move on."

subtext of this constant outpouring of weak and bad faith whining about miliband’s sanctions is that no-one can actually defend the israeli settlers within the confines of reasonable discourse (plenty of settlers will happily and vividly provide extremely unreasonable justifications ofc)

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

It's vastly more comforting to believe in an imminent robot apocalypse than the truth: the things that will destroy us are extensions of the unsexy but obvious problems all around us. We are not doomed in one grand way, but a thousand petty small ways.

Ms. Rachel: "Ed Sheeran had an opportunity…Instead he caved to people who refuse to accept what the world knows." "If more than 20,000 white children were killed…everyone would be shouting…Treating some children's lives as less worthy of outrage is racist. Silence during a genocide is not neutral."
Ms. Rachel post:
"Ed Sheeran had an opportunity show that we won't be bullied into punishing people for supporting Palestine. Instead he caved to people who refuse to accept what the world knows. A genocide is happening in Gaza. We all need to speak out against it.

"If more than 20,000 white children were killed in another part of the world, everyone would be shouting about it at their concerts. Treating some children's lives as less worthy of outrage is racist. Silence during a genocide is not neutral."

Israel's claim to being a safe haven for Jews gets more absurd by the day: not only is it locked in a never ending war with its neighbours; increasingly, they're talking about stripping Jewish Israelis of their citizenship if they complain about it.

The British press has been extremely hostile towards Amnesty International, Medicins Sans Frontiers, Oxfam and others for decades because *they offer rival narratives that the public might listen to*, and that is not acceptable, to them.

(2)Workers without ILR dont have full workers rights- they can't complain about the boss or easily change jobs- they can be deported at the Boss's whim. Mahmood's plan, backed by Burnham, increases this pool of exploitable workers.Which in turn drives down all work pay/conditions..

(1)Burnham/Mahmood's plans to increase the wait for Indefinite Leave To Remain (ILR) to 15 Years should be big in Holborn+St.Pancras By-election- Its not a migration issue, its a workers rights issue. It doesn't change migrant numbers, it reduces rights of workers already here
