The normalisation of overt racism and hatred of the other, brought to you by Reform, the Tories and bizarrely - Labour.

When they run out of scapegoats for the hate filled cesspool they are dragging us into, what do we think happens next?
If Reform UK are happy to have an overt racist on their benches then what does that tell you about the party?

Pochin should have had the whip removed 24 hours ago.

Or are Reform condoning it by their silence?

The reform party nativity scene.

No unmarried mothers. No Middle Eastern people. No refugees. No people seeking emergency accommodation.

Over 75% of people in Britain want a wealth tax — yes, that’s right, three quarters of the UK — and what’s Rachel Reeves’ grand plan? To raise income tax. Not the tax on unearned wealth, inherited privilege, or capital gains, oh no"

The poorest 20% pay a higher proportion of income in taxes than the richest 20%.

Hitting low/middle income people won't aid growth.

Normal service on #TrevorPhillips & #BBCLauraK. Days after Plaid Cymru sensationally won the #Caerphilly by-election there is no room for Plaid on either programme. But Trevor Phillips has room for the losing party: Farage's Reform & Zia Yusuf. Ever get the feeling you are being cheated?

Companies that donated to Labour awarded £138m in contracts.

Corporations/Rich don't donate, they bribe. Buy access to policymakers, favourable laws, lax regulation, govt contracts. Low/Middle earners cannot compete.

Political donations must be criminalized. No second jobs for MPs.

It’s more than just bad priorities. It’s about lack of basic decency.

Don't be fooled by Lucy Powell's election as Deputy Leader of the Labour Party. It's being reported as a slap in the face from the Left of the party for Keir Starmer, but there is no 'Left of the party.' Powell was a key part of the 2016 attempted coup against Jeremy Corbyn.

I'm glad to see this important question has been given such in-depth coverage by the national broadcaster on the day the UN accused the British Prime Minister of being complicit in genocide, a topic upon which the BBC remains silent...

This will be remembered as the most shameful period in UK history.
A 🧵
Sir Keir Starmer has been specifically named in a UN report for complicity in Israel's genocide.

The report states that the UK government played "a key role in military collaboration with Israel... a collective crime... with detailed knowledge and cooperation in the destruction of Gaza." 🧵

"The horrors of the past two years are not an aberration, but the culmination of a long history of complicity."

Sir Keir Starmer has to go... to The Hague.

We've all watched this play out. We've taken to the streets, with arrests & proscription banning peaceful protest.

He has to go to The Hague.

I'm sure Starmers Labour should not be on the left column though. They're much more aligned to the Tories imo
