As a country we have made a lot of mistakes in foreign wars over the last 2+ centuries. But I’m not sure we have ever looked as feckless, foolish, incompetent and ridiculous at the leadership level than right now.

Labour right admits it used antisemitism scam because it feared Corbyn would win New book from centrist journalist admits what we all knew: right-wingers funded by Israel supporters and scared of Corbyn’s popularity concocted β€˜Labour antisemitism’ as sabotage …

McSweeney was one of the prime architects of the 'antisemitism crisis' fraud that was used to deprive the UK of a transformative left-wing government so his Starmerite faction would survive. One of the darkest chapters in UK political history.

Yesterday my day began with Dick Cheney being dead in hell and ended with socialism winning an election while the entire establishment looked on, dismayed that they couldn't do a damn thing about it. It was a very good day.

That's adorable.
