the hideous irony of 94-year-old jewish human rights barrister margaret owen being arrested outside the labour conference as andy burnham talks about how he has a moral duty for gaza

no mention from burnham about far right masked terrorists rioting in the streets, closing ports, harassing the RNLI, marching with nazi slogans, burning down homes and attacking people

okay but we're saving up to £45 now with burnham's new policy

andy burnham removing vat from gas bills for a saving of £45... my bill has raised exponentially higher than that, it doesn't even make a dent on my cost of living we need to nationalise utilities now

labour conference talking about the tories from 2 years ago, instead of their own devastating mistakes that compounded class inequality, attacks on vulnerable groups and continued push towards corporate interests

owen jones saying the left has won the argument but we still have no wealth tax, palantir in the nhs, trans people segregated from society, the proscription of palestine action, and now an attack on pensions

andy burnham making no commitments only currently empty statements designed to win back progressive voters in a bid to cling to power and focus on next election, rather than changing anything right now

zohran mamdani is the perfect example of getting things done now not even in his first full year he's implemented massive changes for residents of new york andy burnham promising things in 10 years from now is promising nothing, only a weak attempt to cling to power

any political party that promises things 10 years from now is running a scam

lol the fact that daily mail thinks the burnham speech is the most left wing speech is so depressing

what's interesting is that jeremy corbyn offered the same thing that burnham is now, with a fully costed plan and manifesto burnham... has nothing, no meat on the bones, no actual plan, no next step, no action just a moodboard of what he thinks people might vote for in the holborn by election

what's andy burnham doing about palantir, run by antichrist obsessive peter thiel? fuck all

its really cringe watching labour use the phrase 'hope again' when im like, you literally have some of the most draconian policies, and have completely attacked the most vulnerable groups in this country and emboldened fascism

people talking about burnham being revolutionary and im like... he literally already u turned on everything?

okay so we haven't forgiven lib dems for nick clegg, so why are we so quick to want to forgive labour? just because northern starmer is like, hope is cool again

labour's empty commodification of 'hope' when im like, you literally have been destroying hope for the last few decades?

i feel like the labour party is like an abusive boyfriend, punching you in the gut repeatedly then changing face the next day saying lets make this work

ive just properly listened to andy burnham's speech in full and to be honest... there's absolutely nothing tangible in there, no real commitments, only 'issues on the agenda'

it must suck ass to be prime minister and have to go back to work so soon after your parent has passed away and it would be really amazing if labour could improve working conditions for those experiencing grief, such as introducing PTO beyond a paltry few days that your job offers as a favour

what has andy burnham done in the last few months apart from ed milliband's weak but historic first step towards recognising ethnic cleansing in gaza bus fares? 1 in 3 children are in poverty andy

every time andy burnham makes left-forward announcements, i am reminded that they are just that announcements, plans, commissions, studies, committees no actual change has been promised so far

Hermit the Frog @thatsnotfox.bsky.social · 8h
andy burnham making 'radical' but empty promises right before the holborn by election shows that labour is scared shitless of the greens but is still so entrenched by the labour together right wing project that it can't extract itself to make meaningful change for anyone

what's the point of putting anything in your pension, or paying your taxes for your whole life if you have it all taken away from you when you finally get to retire? what does this mean for the next generations of retirees? what assurances do they have of an actual retirement?

labour will do anything to not tax billionaires including going for yet another vulnerable class of our society - pensioners

the fact that marilyn manson was booked by slipknot absolutely proves that cancel culture was a smoke screen co opted as part of a DARVO exercise by abusers see also every other male celebrity still getting booked and raking in millions

“Can I do it?” is a terrible measure of disability. Yes, I can do it. Can I do it repeatedly? Can I do it safely? Can I do it without support? Can I do anything afterwards? Can I do it tomorrow too? What does doing it COST? These tell me a lot more about my capability.

guy who fell into a coma after the last episode of fawlty towers wakes up and looks at the internet
5 panel comic

Panel 1: Purple Guy looks at a laptop and says “boy o boy! I wonder what my comedy hero’s up to”

Panel 2: A tweet from John Cleese that reads “This is where the Arabs were ahead of us

By castrating all their slaves, they made sure that there were no descendants who could claim reparations”

Panels 3-5: Purple Guy slowly closes laptop with a mystified look of revulsion

the fact that the bbc completely fails to mentions that danny tommo slashed an RNLI dinghy while a volunteer rescuer was still on board is just further proof that this unbiased news source has a clear agenda of attacking and blaming migrants

i've always understood activism as about social progress and change, so making the world literally a better place danny tommo, stephen yaxley lennon and these far right fascists are not activists they are only interested in social decline and bigotry, and profiting off it for themselves

The fact that the guardian and every other news media is calling danny tommo an activist is really melting my brain this isn't activism, this is terrorism

Hermit the Frog @thatsnotfox.bsky.social · 23/09/2026
the bbc referring to danny tommo as an activist, and not as a convicted criminal thug funded by dark money is actually criminal in itself

i really wish that these asshole fascists spent as much time trying to get our utilities nationalised, and investment in our schools, housing, and infrastructure, than they do screaming at boats in the channel

deeply deeply disappointed to see this from taylor lorenz, in defending whether its for 'tech twitter' or the 'cultural conversation', a platform now run by a literal nazi, with a CSA deepfake problem, extreme harassment, misinformation, disinformation, foreign malignant actors and bots

Interesting that theres no wall to wall media coverage of the holborn by election While makerfield, gorton and clacton were plastered with reform articles near daily
