The Trump Action Tracker is a British academic’s answer to Trump “flooding the zone” with anti-democratic and anti- rule of law behaviours.

It’s a one-stop-shop for logging thd lot. And the neta-analysis of what is happening is very enlightening… darkly.

Brexit is the toxic epicentre of the political shitshow we now have to endure. It promoted idiocy and deceit, endorsed racism, divided us, made us poorer, weaker, less safe and less sane. It’s belittled the country, killed the Tory party and given birth to Reform.
A relentless klaxon of failure.

What a gargantuan mess. #Brexit

America is broken and a very (un)Civil War is looming.

Right wing media has had it in for Angela Rayner from the start - they couldn’t bear a working class woman being so powerful & dynamic. She made a mistake and has paid heavily for it. Very much hope she’ll return at some point in the future - our politics desperately needs more voices like hers

"If you celebrated justice for Hillsborough, you have to support the European Convention on Human Rights

Without article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights the gross negligence behind the deaths at Hillsborough would never have been uncovered"

Without the ECHR justice might never have been served for Hillsborough

Without article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights the gross negligence behind the deaths at Hillsborough would never have been uncovered

The man who has put up the most England flags in Manchester was caught in 2016 trying to smuggle 4 Vietnamese people into the UK.

Now he is out of prison hanging up flags.

Any old grift.

Any fool blithely saying they’ve now had a bit of a think about the ECHR and we should leave - is part of why we’re now stuck in the mess of Brexit, being told by the far right to hand our human rights over to them to administer.
FFS people. Have you learned nothing from the last decade of failure?

If you're young
Or old
Or a woman
If you've got a disability
Or, you've a SEND
If you're LGBTQ+
Or you're from an ethnic minority
If you need care
Or you're in the forces
And if you're in Northern Ireland
Then Farage's plan to abolish human rights law is going to screw you

Introduce them to one another may be a start. Then move on to something more technical, like passing.

Couldn't get further than 20 minutes of this shite. A film made for the TikTok generation.
Of which, I am not.
All the text messages and Teams chat malarkey. Get enough of that shite at work!

Trump, "We are taking Gaza."
Reporter, "Under what authority?"
Trump, "Under American authority."

Trump should be doing a life sentence for Ethnic Cleansing.
