In other words, "stop protesting against the murder of innocent people". The establishment needs to get a grip

Absolutely @danielrolphauthor.bsky.social When I was growing up we had no money to buy books. All I had was my local library. I spent hundreds of hours in it. But for that library I might never have become a lawyer. A thousand of them were closed under successive Conservative Governments

TODAY IS #HumanRightsDay Let’s remember Human Rights are universal & non- negotiable. If we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want

What. The. Actual. F*ck. I'm not a royalist by any stretch, but the thought that someone from the monarchy, who are supported by millions of pounds from the taxpayer purse, has willingly had a meeting with the most damaging and morally corrupt president of the modern age, is completely maddening.

The Tories' biggest donor - actually the biggest donor in British politics AFAIK - seems to have changed his name following racist comments about Diane Abbott. And he's given himself a fake knighthood, apparently... Via Private Eye
 PARTING SHOTS

WHAT news of Frank Hester, the £20m Tory party donor and healthcare IT moneybags who got into a lot of hot water earlier this year by saying that Diane Abbott MP made him "want to hate all black women"?

Hester's The Phoenix Partnership (TPP) group continues to make huge profits from its place in a duopoly of suppliers of patient record systems to NHS GP practices. (Its last results showed a £40m profit on £80m of income – see Eye 1619.) But it is to China that it is looking for even more, through its operation in Hangzhou.

Hester is said to be spending a lot of time there and seems to want to put the fuss back here behind him. On TPP's Asia website he has even changed his name and upgraded the OBE he received in 2015, to become Sir Frank Hirst.

All other British executives' names and titles have transferred to the Asian publicity material perfectly, and for some reason TPP didn't want to answer the Eye's questions on the switch. Why might Frank want to show a different persona to the Chinese?

Seriously. Fuck billionaires. Nobody should have that much money. For those who say “THEY WORKED HARD FOR THAT!!!”… Really? Are you sure? Or did they just get rich and then take advantage of a stock market and tax system that lets them sit back and watch their wealth balloon to obscene levels?

The Moscow puppet government in Georgia decided to attack pro-democracy protestors with water cannons, pepper spray, tear gas, and rubber bullets, the protestors responded with the equivalent of a fireworks mini gun. #georgiaprotests
