Also the boys from Bob Vylan had some choice words for Nick Tenconi and UKIP after we binned them off out of Bristol a few weeks back, and took the time after the show to express their support for Bristol Antifascists.

The UK has a disproportionately high prison population of around 1.34%. Of that population, Black people are approximately twice as overrepresented as white people. The prison system is violent, cruel, and racist and should be abolished.

It's all just fucking eugenicist dogwhistles to justify immiserating and ultimately killing disabled people. Kemi Badenoch is genuinely one of the most repugnant Britosh politicians of my lifetime. And Labour is just going to try and chase her to the right.

Unemployment in the UK is currently around 1.7m, and not all of those claim benefits.

The entire population of those cities is about 2m people, and that includes children and retired folks.

No one gets Motability assistance *for* ADHD. It's just that some people with ADHD have mobility issues.

God forbid the Guardian actually add any context to any of this by pointing out that it's all lies.

Badenoch confirms Tories would cut welfare spending
Badenoch turns to welfare.

Right now, there are six and a half million working age adults claiming benefits instead of working.

You heard me right – six and a half million.

That is the entire population of Cardiff and Belfast and Glasgow and Manchester combined being paid to sit at home all day.

We cannot expect people to get up and go to work and pay more and more in taxes to subsidise millions of others not to work …

We have done the hard work, and we have a plan to cut welfare spending.

First, British benefits for British citizens. It is common sense that you should not draw out of a system that you haven’t paid into.

Second, we will restrict benefits to those with the more severe mental health conditions, not anxiety or mild depression. Yes, these challenges are real and people should get support, but they cannot be treated as a reason for a lifetime of work.

And third, we will restrict Motability vehicles to people with serious disabilities. Those cars are not for people with ADHD.

Part of the problem with this "reclaim the flag" shit is that once you start arguing for it, you very quickly start just regurgitating far right talking points.

Billy Bragg: reclaim the flag

Non-white person: I would actually rather not, and I don't think you can, and actually, I find these stickers as worrying and intimidating as the flags themselves.

Billy Bragg: Well, I guess you're just not English enough.

You don't have to validate it. But if you put a Canadian flag and a Ukrainian flag next to each other, it's going to raise questions.

As a guy with crohn's disease who often has to ask to use bathrooms in cafes etc on the fly, I just wanna say that it is always morally correct to refuse to let ICE to use your toilets. If they rupture their bowel and shit themselves to death in your doorway, that's what big wheelie bins are for.

I feel like Mississippi Police covering up what was an obvious random lynching in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination should PROBABLY be getting more news coverage...

Trey Reed, a student at Delta State University in Mississippi, was found hanging from a noose. Mississippi police ruled the death a suicide. Now an autopsy reportedly concludes that he suffered extensive blunt force trauma across his body before he died, meaning he was beaten before he was lynched.

Kaepernick-Funded Autopsy Reportedly Finds Trey Reed Didn’t Die by Suicide — Family Attorney Ben Crump Hasn’t Confirmed

According to a source who isn't authorized to comment publicly, the autopsy of Trey Reed reveals that his death was not caused by a suicide.
