…”Israel declared war on the Palestinian people. And our leaders are slowly declaring war on us, whether it be those protesting the Gaza genocide, or those opposed to a consumption-driven West’s genocide of the planet”

… same battle, with exactly the same enemy!

Genocide two years on: It is the West, not Gaza, that needs to be deradicalised

This brutal war on Palestinians has not just unleashed Israel's demons. It has unmasked our own regimes, as they crack down on humanitarian activism

Isn’t it amazing that the same journalists who totally stuck their heads in the sand when we could all see a Genocide unfolding, now question the motives of those who warned what was happening!!?

The BBC takes its lead from Israel. They would never let a jewish leader who articulates how opposing Israeli genocide and being devastated by the attack on the synagogue are possible without being labelled a “self hating jew”. The antisemitism directed at jews opposing a genocide is off the scale.

All the establishment parties have shifted towards the #right, some further than others.

And it's because of this we MUST stop voting for them.

Thank god for the #GreenParty, giving us hope under #ZackPolansi.

The Tory Party is currently morphing into the Reform Party whilst Labour has already morphed into the Tory Party!!

This is the establishments answer to a demand for change in British politics…

Parties are discredited, therefore they just change their names and lurch to the right a bit more???

UK workers using food banks, bosses feast.

Melrose CEO, 1,112 times the average employee wage.
Tesco, 375
Person, 355
Compass, 330
Marks & Spencer, 261
British Associated Foods, 218
Sainsbury's, 195

Can't rebuild economy/society without equitable distribution of income and wealth.

The government must ensure fair distribution of income

'The average real wage of workers has hardly moved from the 2008 level whilst bosses never had it so good.'

He should be sent to purgatory.
Two years at least of genocidal intent by the tin man’s controllers and no deeds even vaguely verging on humanitarianism have passed through his vacuous mind.
The Kid Starver’s LikudUK contrarianism does not speak for me!
