We've got some half price cracked ice
And miles and miles of carpet tiles,
TVs, deep freeze and
David Bowie LPs,
Ball games, gold chains, wozanames,
And at a push
Trevor Francis track suits from a mush in Shepherds Bush,
Bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush, bush
Very interesting - Pat McFadden tells The Telegraph that young NEETs will be given advice on how to set up their own businesses
I speak to so many young people who dream of being entrepreneurs but, if you’ve never known a business owner and nobody can advise you, how can you begin?
This can lead to young people falling prey to unscrupulous influencers.
This has the potential to be a great thing from government.

All of these countries moving “defensive” forces into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to protect against Ansarallah air attacks—what happens when Trump-Netanyahu restart their criminal war on Iran. Will they all be at war with Iran too? Is that the unspoken purpose here?

Since September, the Saudi war in Yemen has displaced at least 130,000 people from their homes. A staggering 17 million people face hunger.
Britain's support for this catastrophic war - and its complicity in horrendous suffering - must end. Where is the strategy for peace?

The frankly Orwellian modern tendency to announce you are participating in combat missions in a war while simultaneously saying you are staying out of the war.

Lots of interesting bits of info in the SAS in Syria story in the Times - e.g. the SAS captured some suspects and took them to Foreign Office "approved" Kuridsh prisons archive.ph/pgrOU @ElwinWay
Andy Burnham going to bat for a far right dictatorship that has inflicted what was the worst humanitarian crisis in the world on Yemen.
Nice guy though.

It’s highly unlikely Burnham would be PM if ‘they’ - the security state, the corporate media, the Westminster political class etc - thought he’d act any differently.
He’d have got the Corbyn / Polanski treatment.
‘Don’t say this true thing because it’ll give our enemies ammunition’ means never making progress on an issue. You need to name and describe the problem accurately if you want to bring people along with solving it in a just and democratic way.

The Russian armed forces go from being a bunch of clowns armed with spades (so if we Arm Ukraine they’ll win easily!) or a technologically advanced behemoth that presents a huge threat (that’s why we have to spend more £ on our own armed forces), depending on what’s convenient.

Starmer’s levels of duplicity and lying. Burnham, with a straight face, here claims he wants to “push power out of Westminster” while yesterday threatening to throw local government into chaos unless Green coalition partners publicly denounce anti-zionism!
"My message to John is simple, I want to push economic power out into the regions of Scotland, do you?"
Andy Burnham challenges Scotland's First Minister John Swinney to "push power" out from Westminster and Holyrood "into the hands of local people"
