Late 50s going on 25. Pro EU , Pro Ukraine , Pro Palestine, atheist, Socialist, married to Nina who keeps me alive and sane. Short attention span so rarely read long posts. Looking for ways to make the world a better place. Not too much to ask.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

New update to my iPhone. It now screens calls, asking who they are and what do they want. The vague response is from an automated system, so we now have one machine talking to another machine in a virtual world. It’s all getting a bit weird.

Not wanting to start an argument or upset anyone, but I probably will.
How many people know the difference between Socialism and Communism?
I direct this particularly to Americans as I’m currently rewatching The West Wing and am reminded of the binary polarity (if that’s a phrase) of US politics.

This was an extremely difficult piece to write, with more re-writes than I think I’ve ever forced myself to do.

I was able to speak to about a dozen family members and visit one detainee within Adelanto ICE Processing Center. Please give it a peak.

The brutality. The corruption. The lies.

Everything is on full display — and many Americans are beginning to learn an important lesson.

Watch.

We must learn from Ukraine. Ukraine air defences take down 80% of targets.

Ukrainian drones stopped Russian advance on land and in the Black Sea, and devastated the Russian strategic bomber fleet. Ukraine shows besides tech we need integrated command & a new warfare ecosystem.

The Green Party of England & Wales' new housing policy:

"Green Party policy is to seek the effective abolition of Private Landlordism."

"The Green Party believes the existence of Private Landlords adds no positive value to the economy or society."
Green Party Conference 2025 just passed a motion that would Abolish Landlords!

Through a programme of unprecedented council house building, taxation and housing those who need it, a Green government would eliminate profit from a human right.

Housing for all.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before.

Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

This is proper journalism.
I’ve been frustrated to see so much of the ongoing story about asylum seekers and the protests against them covered without hearing from those seeking asylum and now being met with hostility and hatred

I set out to speak to those directly affected to find out about the impact this is having 👇
We escaped war and torture but now we feel unsafe in Britain
Special report: Amid protests and rising aggression towards asylum seekers across the country, we spoke to those being targeted

Reminds of the fall out last summer after an exhausting ten days or so of proper riots here. At some point the planned protests lost steam and got outnumbered by the counter protests. In Brighton it ended up like this
