About 1% of MN is Somali. They are not the 1% causing problems in the US. That would be the 1% that owns most of the wealth.

One from the archives, Share this 🚨 Professor Avi Shlaim: "Anti-zionism has nothing to do with antisemitism. But Israel and its friends have deliberately... conflated anti-zionism with antisemitism in order to discredit critics of Israel, in order to smear them"

Stockpile food – and wash your hands: is that really how to prepare for environmental catastrophe? | George Monbiot

The Tories have announced they would abolish Natural England, support a Third Runway & pull the UK out of the Aarhus Convention - in further signs they’ve totally given up on Middle England, don’t give a toss about the environment & just want to please some wealthy grouse moor owners & raving YIMBYs
Tory party press release: “[We will leave the Aarhus] Convention that powers the lawfare hindering every major infrastructure project in this country.”

“Abolish Natural England and the Environment Agency, moving to a more streamlined regulatory landscape to protect our environment.”Tory PR: “Support a Third Runway at Heathrow Airport and wider expansion, increasing capacity to deliver cheaper flights, better connections for passengers, and more exports of high-value British goods.”

While the Israeli military invades a Palestinian university in the occupied West Bank to demolish a memorial to Palestinian students the IDF has previously murdered, here in the UK our political & media class focus on telling us the Green Party are the problem.

As long as the Tories are threatening to leave the ECHR, they aren’t a serious party. Consider it the ultimate red flag. Any party who’d take this entirely unnecessary and ruinous risk with our rights and our country’s security and wellbeing should never get its hands on power. (Letter, Times)
Value of the
ECHR
Sir, In dangerous times, serious countries do not retreat into splendid isolation. They build alliances, multiply their influence and strengthen institutions. Key among those is the 46-member Council of Europe, at its heart the European Convention on Human Rights.As former independent reviewers of terrorism legislation we have seen at close quarters that the ECHR is not just a human rights instrument. It is a national security asset. Terrorist networks, hostile states, organised crime gangs and people smugglers do not respect borders. Tackling them requires arrangements for the closest possible co-operation with our neighbours, including through joint investigations and police access to European passenger, fingerprint, DNA and vehicle data.These arrangements expressly depend on internationally agreed human rights standards, applied by a supranational court. We detect no political willingness to excuse the UK from compliance with standards to which the rest of Europe already subscribes. As authoritarian powers grow more aggressive and democratic institutions face mounting pressure, Britain should not be abandoning one of its greatest postwar achievements.
The question is not whether we can afford to remain within the ECHR. It is whether, in an increasingly perilous world, we can afford not to.
Lord Carlile of Berriew, Lord Anderson of Ipswich, Sir Max Hill
Independent reviewers of terrorism legislation, 2001-18

This vid is a discussion with the filmmakers of Naza [Israeli code for collateral murder]. It is utterly devastating to listen to how Gazans are murdered by Israel in the ongoing genocide. This interview is ▪️horrific▪️. The Guardian backed documentary must be harrowing. God help us.

A 94-year-old Jewish human rights barrister was among more than 80 people arrested outside the Labour Party conference in Liverpool while demonstrating in support of Palestine Action. The arrests came as Ed Miliband told critics of the government’s policy on Palestine: “We hear you. You were right"

Good. Now arrest those who were with him for conspiracy, and then arrest those who tried to set fire to a hotel for arson. And then proscribe the group as a terrorist organisation. Which is what you are if you use violence for political ends. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Remember quantitative easing. Bank of England created £895bn, bought gilts/bonds, City speculators profited. Govt could keep them, save interest/redemption costs. NO. It is selling them at £120bn loss, pushing up interest rates. Adding about £47bn to govt debt by 2031, the City profits.
