"We'll take our stand for this land & the stranger in our midst..."

Powerful. Brutal. Inspirational. A loving tribute to Renée Good, Alex Pretti & the good people of Minneapolis.
Plus, it name-checks all the villains: the Puppy Killer🐶, Pee-Wee German🇩🇪, the Orange Atrocity🍊💩 & above all: ICE🧊🚫

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

On the day of the most recent local Southampton v Portsmouth derby I thought I’d post my Grandfathers referee medals from previous engagements.

Trump on NATO:

"The problem with NATO is that we'll be there for them 100% but I'm not sure that they'd be there for us, if we gave them the call".

We did get the call on 9/11. 26 NATO members sent troops to defend the US. Hundreds died doing so. It was the only time Article 5 has been activated.

Much-needed advice for some.

I don’t think people realise that Reform is a company and Farage owns the majority of the shares. They do not have a constitution, so no internal democracy, it’s just whatever Farage wants however deranged that maybe.
Once you vote fascists in you will never get rid of them without blood being shed.

The vicious cycle of monopolization:

1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.

Breaking - Five grooming gang survivors tell PM they will stay on panel only if Jess Phillips REMAINS in post.

They say Phillips has “devoted her life to hearing and amplifying the voices of women and girls who would have otherwise been unheard”.

Attacking and calling for Jess Phillips to resign feels like a new low in politics.

She has been working with vulnerable and exploited women years before she was even an MP. She has carried on that great work since.

She’s one of the good ones.

I support Jess Phillips completely. No other MP has so consistently stood up for abused women. The right wing media seems to have it in for her.
