Never again must mean never again for anyone. Humanity, not hierarchy. Peace, not power. And truth—even when it’s uncomfortable.

Too optimistic? But I like the advice: Trump’s undermining of democracy is a deliberate scheme to build an autocracy... Early opposition is important... A collective defense works best... Appeasement is seen by bullies as weakness, an invitation to demand more. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Obvs! Why can't a Labour Government deliver on these glaringly obvious fundamentals for a fair and healthy UK?

Letter in Times today

Text:

International law
Sir, Lord Hermer’s warning is not an insult but a timely reminder from legal history (news, May 30). His reference to Carl Schmitt was not a personal comparison, but a caution against a dangerous and corrosive doctrine: that state power may override law when convenient. That principle helped dismantle constitutional safeguards in interwar Germany and must be scrutinised wherever it resurfaces. The European Convention on Human Rights was an integral part of Churchill’s postwar vision. To treat it now as a mere obstacle to immigration policy is to forget why it was created: to ensure that governments, including our own, remain ultimately subject to a substantive vision of the law. The real divide is not between Remainers and Leavers, or Strasbourg and Westminster, but between those who believe in government under law and those who do not.

In working class areas like Stonehouse, Green support is growing strongly With people disillusioned with Labour it's going to be Green or Reform that they choose And only one of those is a democratic party

How can we stand by and not feel personal guilt? How can we not demand our Government acts, that the world acts to stop and care. A deeply, tragically moving story. How can we?

The Doom Loop (see here) explains the problem - we need a solution. Reform et al seem to some like the solution, but are very much part of the every declining doom loop.

Excellent report shows - rooftop solar can make a real dent in in fuel poverty. "The government should consider more means-tested support with up-front costs, including both grants and subsidised loans targeted at low-to-middle income households."
