The idolisation of a woman who called for people to be burned to death, by large swathes of the British right (including by a former Tory AG, no less), is not called out enough.

It is deeply irresponsible for any politician, let alone a senior Conservative, to peddle the same far-right nonsense about Luton that we see from the likes of Yaxley Lennon and Reform.

So, this is where we are? Hundreds of masked, moronic fascist blackshirts in Portsmouth are actually ‘protesting’ the saving of lives and harassing heroic RNLI volunteers..? Arrest this despicable pond life now! This isn’t ‘protest’, it’s criminal endangerment. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cm...

GOAT is often bandied about too casually, but Gary Sobers was cricket's greatest all-rounder of all-time. No ifs, no buts. The first batter to hit six sixes in an over of first-class cricket 👇and a long time holder of the highest Test innings were just two of Gary's incredible achievements.

Was talking to a friend of mine yesterday who's football mad. But he's no interest in this World Cup. I won't be watching the USA play. Mexico and Canada yes. It's all down to individual choice. There is the Women's Cricket World Cup, Wimbledon, et al as alternatives during the footie.

Immigrants & asylum seekers are not our enemies. They are not responsible for the austerity, privatisation, erosion of civic life, thinning of democracy and concentration of power we suffer. But they're being punished for these things. Punished at the behest of the very people who *are* responsible.

These aren't protests. They're racist riots. And it's time for the government to take them seriously. The PM should be convening COBRA and setting out a real plan to end this horrific violence and bring communities together. Now is a time for real leadership.

Funny how people who seem to believe in collective punishment for eg the crime of one migrant never seem to believe that since so many women are killed by men, all women should riot against men & throw them in the sea just to be on the safe side
