Anti-centrist socialist. Centrism is corporate rule, war & climate change. #EndCorporateRule & make billionairism illegal. Progress is not neoliberal "market growth", it's local & global cooperation. Isolate Israel #BDS The rest is photography. YNWA

Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian vehicles in Awarta, southeast of Nablus, as settler violence continues to intensify across the occupied West Bank. Palestinians face increasingly frequent attacks, with incidents reported daily in communities across the territory.

Polanski speech today in Brighton included calls for a 3 year rent freeze to tackle housing unaffordaibility. This doesn't go far enough on its own; #FairRent schemes are required, as we had in the 1980s until the neoliberals came to attack social fairness.

To those who somehow don't seem to understand: Which part of authorising weapons sales to a state committing genocide, banning the protest movement trying to stop these sales, using the RAF to provide surveillance flights for Israel and providing major diplomatic and media support is NOT complicity?

A lobbyist for Palantir had key role in helping Andy Burnham become PM. Martha Dalton, whose company Lodestone worked for Palantir, worked closely with Burnham’s team in the byelection. In other news.. A motion to kick Palantir out of our NHS was blocked at Labour conference.

With US troops leave Iraq after occupying it for 23 years, here's a reminder of one of their worst war crimes: On the morning of November 19th, 2005, a squad of Marines was travelling in 4 Humvees down a road in the town of Haditha, Iraq, when their convoy hit an IED The blast killed one Marine.

We had #hope in 2015 and Labour right wing/centrists used antisemitism fakery to destroy it. Real hope: nationalise railways, energy, water, post; free education, rent controls, a 30-hour week; a 50% top rate of tax. Redistribution of wealth is an alien concept to neoliberal clapping Labour seals

Israeli West Bank invaders are not "Settlers". They're colonialists, often violent occupiers, burning crops, destroying homes. It's like people from a neighbouring town invading yours & forcing you out of your home at gun point, with firebombs, violent threats, bulldozers & army backup.

Centrists like #Burnham keep pushing "public control" as a ruse to make us believe it's nationalisation. It isn't. I know people who are totally sold on it & singing his praises today unthinkingly. There are still shareholders and they will still demand dividends at our expense as bill payers.

Always interesting to draw comparisons in relation to centrism, leftism and Israel. An identical approach in English politics where centrists demonise leftists who criticise Israel for perceived political advantage. If I had time I would research if these politicians all receive Israeli blood money.

The "news" in late neoliberal capitalist society is increasingly a reflection of ruling class fragility and their intentions to fix that. It tells us who/what to fear (i.e. 'the other', not them). The baddies of today will have been wined and dined by the same people yesterday.

The ruling classes are eager to start WW3 aren't they. At least that's what it looks like, observing from a distance. It's almost like they want a mass cull of humanity since Covid wasn't enough. But their power is always based on a house of cards, especially dependent on fear/hate of "the other".

#AndyBurnham picks up the baton from Starmer. They talk about threats to democracy from Russia with one face whilst the other face talks up military support for a violent genocidal regime. Blair or Brown, Starmer or Burnham - it's always the same contradiction.

Automation under capitalism helps the capitalist ruling class. Automation in a Socialist system where workers own the means of production and all basic human rights (housing, education, healthcare, world-class infrastructure, clean drinking water, etc) are guaranteed, helps the working class.
