Just a reminder: The S*n revealed on October 27 the SAS had deployed to UK’s Cyprus base for Gaza ops. UK military sent out a D-Notice following day instructing editors to censor all info about SAS and Gaza. They acceded. We have no idea what they’ve been doing past 10 months.

What a normal person sees vs what the commentariat sees
“I’m really proud of people who want to contribute…their money to our politics. It is a noble pursuit.” Wes Streeting lauds donors as he defends Keir Starmer’s decision to accept donations for hospitality. #Newsnight

The Labour party has barred me from its 2024 conference while allowing BAE Systems to sponsor events there. BAE Systems supplies components for Israel's F-35 jets which are being used to annihilate Gaza - all with Labour's approval. declassifieduk.org/labour-ba…

Are Zionists so stupid that they don't realise that Ireland is already partitioned into two states lol
If that is the case, I have found a 2 state solution that will make the Irish happy.

And here we see the quintessential British liberal rebuttal. No of course it doesn't address the point made. That would be to legitimise your opponent's framing. Instead, one must traduce their reputation, directly and/or by association, in the most asinine manner as possible.

When your MP is a member of Labour/Lib Dem/Conservative Friends of Israel, or when they have links to the Israel Lobby… Understand that THIS is what they are complicit in…
I’ve been holding on to this photo for 9 months. It’s from the Iron Swords telegram page where Israeli soldiers happily post their war crimes with impunity. Now feels like a good time to publish it.

Btw if your an eco protest group or a racial justice group the coppers will go as far as marrying and having kids with you to infiltrate your group but if your a far right fascist mob they somehow know nothing

It is truly wild how simply calling these freaks 'weird' has proven such an instantaneous cheat code. Brains so cooked from years in fuckless online sadism chambers, they can't pretend to be normal for five seconds, even when their ability to do so is literally the topic at hand.

The sexual assault of Palestinian prisoners is neither new nor an isolated incident. One of the most terrifying parts of the Israeli war machine are its torture internment camps. The western media has dehumanised Palestinian male life to the point these are rarely mentioned.

Of course, it would be more sensible to keep the winter fuel payments for all pensioners & claw it back from rich ones through taxes. But our political culture is averse to sensible policy, so we're left with the inefficiency of means testing.

If you’re feeling down, just remember it’s not normal to watch a live-streamed genocide for 10 months straight.

Incredibly naive stuff by the Guardian. Attlee & Blair tolerated dissent because their priority was a programme of reform. Starmer's programme is the restoration of the state's authority. Performative discipline is the essence of what he does. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

I have not seen it widely remarked that the two-child benefit cap (which relates to tax credits / UC, not to child benefit) is *exactly* the issue that caused the rout of the Labour Right & Corbyn’s election as leader. Ie it’s a totemic anti-left issue, & hungry kids be damned.
