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.

What we hoped would happen in Gaza: Israeli withdrawal, rebuilding by Palestinians with help from agencies. What's proposed: effectively a slave-labour camp for the Palestinians under complete surveillance and control by Israel/US. No freedom, no self-determination. Slavery.

How can a guy on VirginOne TV presenting a current affairs/politics programme not understand how 97% of the cost of US tariffs is borne by US consumers? It's as if he thinks that firms exporting to the US are billed for what the send there!?

Is the world just going to let Trump, Putin, and Netanyahu's pillage Palestine and drive out, and/or subjugate Palestinians? Do EU leaders have nothing to say or do?

It's not disputable that Grok is producing, not "facilitating", pornographic and abusive images. Elon Musk is CEO, and is responsible. If an AI app was openly moving money out of Millionaires, Politicians or Corporations accounts we'd soon find out how quickly it could be disabled.

Trump on Iran
" You better not shoot protestors"
Trump on Minnesota, and USA
It's ok to shoot protestors so long as you pretend it's self defence.
So, who's citizens does he put "first" , Iran's or the USA's?

Would it be a good idea for European Nato countries (maybe even include Canada) to offer, and for Denmark to accept, assistance in strengthening Greenlands defences, in support of their Nato committments? Surely this would help alleviate US psychological nervousness about Russia and China?

X basically industrialized the creation of fake porn of women who don't consent. Others did it first, but Grok made it normalized and centralized: publicly visible, instantly creatable by anyone, regardless of who's being targeted and dehumanized. Only question now is will X suffer any consequences

Ivan Yates thinks the need to declare possible conflicts of interest only applies to people who don't have the same integrity as himself. His ability to divorce his commercial interest from his political judgement mean we should just trust him! Is that arrogance or ignorance or both?

Ivan Yates believes he has such high ethical standards that he shouldn't be be required to comply with ethical requirements like ordinary people, who obviously might not have ethical standards as high as his ( but he's not "cocky")! 🤷♂️

If you haven't heard this before it's well worth a listen, pick a time when you have time. It may seem a little dated but its perfectly relevant, and spot on ( or "right on the money" as USA people say).

"Got wrong", while technically correct, is unduly kind to Kenneddy.

The use of the phrases "humanitarian disaster" and "man-made catastrophe" in relation to Gaza, is part of a complete failure to deal properly with Netanyahu's gov'ts actions there and enabling him. Any country that sends arms to Israel is complicit in, slaughter, displacement and destruction.

Does Ireland even insist that ALL aircraft using either our airspace and airports, declare that they are not carrying weapons? The "neither confirm nor deny" declaration should not be tolerated from anyone, and constitutes a "blind eye" approach, making us complicit in the use of those weapons.
