Wile E. Coyote, despaired, takes a bucket of paint and a brush and paints a beautiful two-bedroom house on a mountainside. He paints a beautiful coyote wife in the window, and two adorable coyote kids running around in the yard. He tries to enter this new coyote life, but it is inaccessible to him

Can Keir Starmer advise how much taxpayers' money was wasted in criminalising Palestine Action. How many millions in police time, in court time? A ballpark figure will suffice. And all to deflect from Britain's shameful role in the genocide in Gaza. Lest we forget. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It remains in place for now to allow further legal argument and the government to consider an appeal.

you grow up learning about elections and laws and social contracts and popular opinion and all this other stuff and then when you're older the plaster starts to fall off, and it turns out underneath a lot of it is just rich weirdos doing dodgy favours for other rich weirdos

Every day we see where the politics of Donald Trump and the far right leads. It's a politics of hate, fear, corruption and destruction. It's a politics everyone in Scotland must stand unequivocally against, abroad and at home.

Palestinian statehood is not a bargaining chip. It is not a threat. It is an inalienable right of the Palestinian people. Our demands on this shameful government remain the same: end all arms sales to Israel, impose widespread sanctions, and stop the genocide, now.

I don't know how many people understand that disabled people are looking at losing £450 a month, every month, potentially for life. Money that pays for the help, aids, and adjustments that they need to exist in the world. There are disabled people who wouldn't survive these cuts.

We have enough wealth to invest in our public services and end injustices like child poverty. But far too much is concentrated in the hands of a few. Progressive property taxes help ensure the wealthiest people pay their fair share. The Tories, Labour and SNP all voted against.

ammy: The UK has suspended trade negotiations with Israel over Gaza aid blockade
The foreign secretary has told parliament the UK has suspended trade negotiations with Israel over its Gaza blockade. David Lammy said the Israeli ambassador had been summoned.

Lammy: Israel's blockade of Gaza is 'morally wrong, unjustifiable, and it needs to stop'
David Lammy has told MPs in London that he thinks all of them “should be able to utterly condemn the Israeli government’s denial of food to hungry children,” as he described Israel’s actions as “morally wrong” and “unjustifiable.”

The Prime Minister imitating Enoch Powell’s ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech is sickening. That speech fuelled decades of racism and division. Echoing it today is a disgrace. It adds to anti-migrant rhetoric that puts lives at risk. Shame on you, Keir Starmer.

When you empower the patriarchy to determine, categorise and control women, you demean and oppress all women of all identities. All our freedoms have been set back decades. You might think it does not affect you, until it does.
