Have you seen her son Dexter? He's all grown up now. Mess with his mum, and I reckon the only thing that goes from the river to the sea will be your still twitching corpse!

Not a huge fan of Find Out Now - their polling always seems off-beam. But posting this Westminster poll here purely for that Greens figure:

RFM: 32% (-3)
LAB: 17% (-2)
CON: 17% (+3)
GRN: 15% (+4)
LDM: 12% (=)
SNP: 3% (=)

Spain has made it a serious crime with up to Life imprisonment if anyone sends arms to Israel.

The rest of the world need to do the same.

No weapons for War Criminals.

Texas National Guard troops are in Chicago. Trump had said he wants to jail Governor Pritzker and Chicago’s mayor.

Federal agents have shot citizens in broad daylight, and they are dropping from helicopters and wearing fatigues like they’re in a combat zone.

We’ve got to accept what this is.

Dear Labour activists ...
1. Saying we need a better tax system that finally gets the super-rich to pay their fair share is not "populism".
2. Not jumping onto the anti-foreigner bandwagon as Starmer has done is not "populism".
3. Criticising genocide is not "populism".

My other half was there singing with her.

She's in the video.

Send the idiots around here. I'll have a robust discussion with them as to why they were absolutely, categorically not antisemitic.

And then I'll post the video of Netanyahu using the same phrase. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmQx...

Charlotte Church sang From the River to the Sea at a fundraising event for Palestinians and now all the usual people are screaming antisemitism and trying to cancel her.

RT if you stand with Charlotte Church and Palestine.

Bugger off then!

Think about this:
Donald Trump, who avoided the military draft 5 times, said on Wednesday that Americans who don't "want to fight for our country" can leave.

The White House says Trump will be going to Walter Reed tomorrow for his annual physical.

It'll be the first annual physical since the one he had in April.
