Worrying scenes in the Channel today, for all interested in asylum policy and maritime tactics. A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat.

Gee, I wonder if there’s a more apt historical comparison in tactics and aesthetics between the men wearing identical black outfits, doing fascist things, than black bloc and Extinction Rebellion. Guess not!

Thought it was quite weird he was on Jake Shears' Queer The Music podcast recently. Have they exhausted their list of queer musicians to talk to already?

This is the most fucked up and immediately harmful policy decision I think I've ever seen in adult trans healthcare in the UK, and that's saying something. The Welsh Gender Service is one of the best in the country. It is widely praised by the patients it helps. That is why it is being targeted.

it's my fault for looking at tik-tok but I keep seeing this meme where supposedly punk / alternative / underground artists say they've been told they're unmarketable and want people's help to prove that wrong. why would you want your "punk" band to be "marketable"?? pick an accessible genre instead

Here's what the landlord lobby don't want you to know: If rents went down by 20%, renters would save £2400 a year. The government would save £2 billion a year. And landlords would still make 4.5 times as much profit as the average business.
Polanski welcomes report showing "scare stories" about rent controls false and how they could slash poverty and save government billions

They gave US zinester Elizabeth Soto *50 fucking years* in prison for publishing a zine that supports an anti-fascism stance. Prosecutors also used her feminism themed zine, and an anti-AI zine as evidence against her. This is unprecedented.

The media are portraying last night’s riot as a “protest”, and the rioters just aggravated locals, perhaps triggered by Farage. In reality, at the heart of it are highly motivated fascists who’ll travel miles and work hard to build this kind of violet mobilisation. bsky.app/profile/bobf...

These are the kinds of groups getting behind Tommy Robinson's Unite the Kingdom march today. They are showing their true colours. We cannot allow this to be normalised.

**Stand Up To Racism** (@AntiRacismDay)

Fascist group White Vanguard have unfurled their antisemitic banner at #TommyRobinson's demonstration. And we're told this isn't a far right hate march?

The fascists are the real antisemites and islamophobes. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise

#UTK #UniteTheKingdom

[Image: A street scene showing a crowd of demonstrators on a residential London street lined with terraced buildings. Union Jack flags are visible among the crowd. At the centre, demonstrators are holding a large white banner with black and yellow hazard-striped borders, reading:

"END ZIONIST OCCUPATION OF BRITAIN! STOP WHITE REPLACEMENT"

From: www.theguardian.com/technology/2... Most egregious case of "guy complains he's chosen to live next to a nightlife venue" I've seen in a while. It's been there since 1979. Surely he knew it was there? or should have looked into what businesses were nearby before moving there?
Screenshot of article text, it reads: "She said the businessman, his husband and children had been "suffering for some eight years by the constant nuisance caused by the venue", and the short closure "brought for them a very much needed relief of constant sleep and peace. The prospect of the licence being reinstated was a real concern"."
