The government's Crime and Policing Bill is at Report Stage in the House of Commons. Yet scarcely anyone is alert to the implications of Sections 114 & 115, which (as everywhere's close to a place of worship), greatly increase police powers to shut down protest. Please tell MPs and friendly peers.

There is absolutely no excuse for buying into the war propaganda about Iran after what we all saw with Iraq. "OMG nuclear weapons!" Shut up, idiot. If you're a grown adult with internet access still swallowing this load of bull spunk in the year 2025 you're either stupid or evil.

🚨The US Air Force sent around 30 aerial refuelling tankers across the Atlantic yesterday amid heightened tensions in the Middle East.

At least one of the Boeing KC-145R Stratotankers has seemingly been permitted to land in the UK, at Glasgow airport.

Comprehensive new research finds the BBC coverage of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza is systematically biased against Palestinians and fails to reach standards of impartiality.

❗️BREAKING — The UK Ministry of Defence admits it is “currently training” Israeli military personnel in Britain.

The Labour government has until now refused to answer questions about this, which we covered last year.

64% of Israelis think "there are no innocent people in Gaza."

It gets worse.

That figure includes the 20% of Israel who are Palestinian citizens. 92% of them disagree.

So that means Jewish Israeli overwhelmingly think there are no innocent people in Gaza.

The UK will ensure that the islanders it forced off Diego Garcia in the 1960s/70s will not be able to return since it has an "effective veto" over any "resettlement" that presents a "threat" to the operation of the US/UK military base there.

"Lawmakers under 45 — Ms. Ocasio-Cortez’s cohort — used to be much better represented in Congress. In 1981, when the median age was at its lowest since at least 1951, some 37 percent of House and Senate members were younger than 45. In the current Congress, it’s only 16 percent."

Reminder: when Sean Duffy was a congressman, he and other Republicans voted against upgrading air traffic control systems.

Now, he’s trying to blame those systems for Newark airport’s outages – while claiming DOGE’s cuts of critical support staff at the FAA had nothing to do with it.
