Most socialists wouldn't be offended if you called them a "socialist". They'd just shrug and say "yeah".
The same goes for most anarchists, communists and capitalists.
But call a Reform voter a "Nazi", and they act all hurty-wurty. It's like they're ashamed of who they are!

This #HolocaustRemembranceDay, we must think of the Gaza Holocaust, which continues on unabated.
We must say #NeverAgain.
Because "never again" means NEVER - not for any people, not in any place, and not at any time.
Not in our names.

If you think that Hamas should disarm, but you don't think that the IDF should disarm, then you don't want peace - you want ethno-domination.

When the American banned booze, criminal gangs began to produce moonshine.
Now the Brits are trying to close the borders, and criminal gangs are ferrying migrants across the channel in small boats.
Prohibition doesn't work. It only encourages crime.
Open the borders!

So, I see Trump has been criticising British soldiers for their role in Afghanistan.
Let's be clear: ALL the soldiers who took part in that war should be condemned.
ALL soldiers who join imperialist armies, invade & occupy foreign lands, are scum.
They should ALL be vilified.

2015: Andy Burnham is a Blairite, who supported the Iraq War and PFIs. He's way too right-wing to be Labour leader.

Doing the right thing - helping those who are smaller and weaker than yourself, even when you don't have to - is a sign of STRENGTH.
Giving the Chagos Islands back to the Chagos islanders was a show of strength.
Weak men, like Donald Trump, will never understand this.

Britain's relationship with the USA isn't a "special relationship". It's a "toxic relationship".
We need to break up this partnersip, even if that might seem hard, even if that might seem crazy - because we'll emerge stronger and healthier in the long-run.

Any country which has a foreign military base, has forgone its sovereignty. It's become a colony - a vassal state - another country's bitch.
If these countries had any self-respect, they'd kick those invaders off of their land.

This is our Chamberlain moment.
Do our leaders appease the fascist loon (Trump), ignore the crimes of his Gestapo (ICE), and allow him to annex a foreign territory (Greenland)?
Or do they grow a backbone, and resist?

Americans have the "right to bear arms" to prevent tyranny, right?
It's so they can rise up and overthrow any government that get too violent and authoritarian, no?

There's an international arrest warrant out against Netanyahu. Yet he can waltz around the world without getting arrested.
There's not a warrant out against Maduro. But he... err... DOES get arrested?

If it was okay for the Republicans to kidnap Maduro, then it's okay for Hamas to kidnap people too, right?
Anything else would be inconsistent, no?
We live in a world where kidnapping is an acceptable activity now. Anyone can kidnap anyone else.

"Cutting the cost of living" means reducing prices, which would result in a reduction in corporate profits.
This is the choice politicians have to make: Lower costs for the people, or higher profits for the corporations.
"Pro-business" parties will always favour the profits...

Ottomans had the right to move around the Ottoman Empire.
This means that Ottoman Jews had the right to move to Jerusalem, which was in the Ottoman Empire.
They chose NOT to make Aliyah, because they WEREN'T Zionists.
