I'm going to this. It's time that Farage and his ilk were exposed for what they are: scurrilous supporters of tyranny.

Labour has denounced me as β€˜deeply misleading’ on its planning reform. I wish that were true | George Monbiot Even it now admits that brick by brick, these proposals will wreck habitats. This could be Starmer’s most damaging mistake yet, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

*Copy one of Boris Johnson's stupidest and most self-destructive policies.
*Ignore the massive wave of public fury it ignited.
*Smear and attack anyone warning that it might not be a great idea.
In this week's column I ask what the hell Keir Starmer is playing at.

Britain is running out of jail cells because it is locking up tens of thousands of people with drink and drug problems, mental health issues and low educational attainment. Try tackling these issues instead of building more prisons.

One in five people in Gaza face starvation, famine watchdog warns The IPC says a full 100% of Gaza now experiences acute food insecurity while half-a-million people face starvation.

Watch and weep while the major powers stay silent in the face of Netanyahu's genocidal mission in Gaza. Have you spoken out? If not, why not?

The government is legitimising Reform with anti-migrant rhetoric while alienating long-time Labour voters by shifting to the right.

This won't defeat the far right, nor will it improve lives ruined by austerity - it's clearly a lose-lose strategy.

In China, students are excluded by the authoritarian regime for their political views. In Trumplandia, Chinese and other international students are excluded because of their universities' political views. Authoritarianism by another name.

Stop Farage by taking the Assemblies road to people's power Reform’s humiliation of Labour and the Tories is the clearest indication that the UK’s political system is in a state of disintegration.

Reform’s humiliation of Labour and the Tories in the May 1 elections is the clearest indication that the UK’s political system is in a dangerous state of disintegration, requiring dramatic action based on taking democracy to a new level beyond the present system.

I’ve seen video of IDF bombing Nasser Hospital, where a friend of mine is on a humanitarian mission to treat patients.

My friend survived the bombing but a teen patient he treated and who was set to go home today was murdered.

Are you warmongers not tired and sick of this yet? This horror

Israeli air strike destroys part of last functioning hospital in Gaza City The Israel Defense Forces said the hospital contained a "command and control center used by Hamas".

This is barbaric, bordering on the fascist. No wonder Netanyahu is feted by Trump who is turning the US towards totalitarianism.

Starmer's project chainsaw The Starmer government's attacks on older people, the disabled, environmental protection and public services are inspired by Trump.

As Trump's wrecking ball destroys jobs and basic rights in the USA, Starmer and Rachel Reeves hit the vulnerable in the interests of big capital, making Thatcher's cuts look mild. realdemocracymovement.org/starmers-pro...
