Tony Hancock should’ve made a film about free jazz, Irene Handl with a cameo.
Read Geoff Dyers Guardian piece on Zoh Amba, then clicked on the link of her playing. It’s drivel Geoff. Albert Ayler was rubbish too. And late Coltrane. Why do people put their ears through this crap?
Pretty sure that the actual problem with the Great Replacement Theory is that it’s a Nazi conspiracy theory
And, believe it or not, the sky did not fall on Earth, there was no "WW3," no boiling seas, no 40 years of darkness, no earthquakes, no volcanos, no mass hysteria, and no cats and dogs living together. What happened was Ukraine, as a result of a precise ATACMS strike, wiping…
Maté’s gormless smirk always plastered on his stupid face, what a prick
In today´s #vatniksoup REBREW, I´ll introduce a Canadian propagandist & social media personality, Aaron Maté (@aaronjmate). He´s best-known for whitewashing al-Assad´s & Russia's war crimes in Syria & for denying Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential elections. 1/24
Biden says military aid will be shipped to Ukraine in HOURS. "I'm making sure the shipments start right away. In the next few hours--literally in a few hours--we are going to begin sending equipment to Ukraine for air defense munitions, artillery for rocket systems, and armored…
Corbyn being a cretin again I see, nothing ever changes..
So the Rwanda bill becomes law, with Britain an inspiration to the extreme right across Europe. Summary deportation with no right of appeal, some manacled in 21st century convict flights. If the ECHR dares to challenge, we leave that. All to reflect “ the people’s will”. Not mine
There’s a book to be written on how Sunak got to a place where his Rwanda policy with its unworkable, cruel, expensive, law breaking nationally embarrassing contradictions- Rwanda is safe but it’s a deterrent etc, etc- became his make or break policy in a country where public…
Unless blocked, Sunak is going to send c.100 terrified refugees 4,000 miles away in a symbolic gesture that will neither 'stop the boats' nor save him electorally. The main result will be to cause intense pain to a group of people who have already suffered plenty.
No objective truth or scientific fact will shake a fundamentalist. There's literally no limit to the nonsense they'll speak, the lies they'll tell or the derision they'll brave rather than question the faith around which they've organised their lives.

This is such horseshit. No one else around the world is going to see US dollar assets as no longer being safe unless they are planning to invade a sovereign nation. The “multipolar world” stuff is just the wet dreams of apologists for mass murderers.

The highly-regarded paediatrician who conducted the most thorough review ever undertaken on the medical evidence for transitioning gender-confused children has been advised not to travel on public transport for her own safety. 1/3 thetimes.co.uk/article/hilary…
Bragg’s wilful blindness is something to behold, mind-blowing.
He wasn’t supposed to be a role model…laughing at Tory hypocrisy shouldn’t have led to valorising the depravity..

Oh..and we old codgers can still help change the world. 💜🤍💚 🌹🌹🌹Cluster munitions being used against the third largest city in Ukraine. Notable silence from all the “incredibly principled” people who loudly opposed Ukraine using U.S. supplied DPICM to break up Russian mass wave assaults across muddy fields in the Donbas.
⚡ Russia attacked Odesa with an Iskander ballistic missile equipped with cluster munitions, confirms the Prosecutor General's Office. Metal fragments and missile debris were found within a 1.5 km radius of the impact site.
“We” didn’t start the largest war in Europe since 1945 - Vladimir Putin’s Russia did we he launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine. If the WHO wants someone to blame for increased defence spending in Western countries, Russia is the culprit.
There is enough money to cover all development priorities, but we choose to invest in war. The most courageous choose peace. #IsDB50
God you can smell the desperation in the "we paid one person to go to Rwanda" story. Reeks.
“If the medium-sized countries aren’t banding together the giants are going to sit on us.” The 🙈🤯 part is how UK politics reached a level of nostalgia-nationalist delusion that that’s considered a profound insight, not a statement of the obvious.
Every few years, I search for this 2019 clip of Blair again. The bluntness of his ‚power is power!‘ doesn‘t only apply to geopolitics, but equally to energy policy & the delayed energy transition. Raw power. No longer a lack of technologies or knowledge.
I get that David Cameron may need to charter a plane when travelling to multiple countries in one week, but that does not justify spending hundreds of thousands of pounds at taxpayers' expense to hire one of the most luxurious private jets on the market. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…
@stuart_clegg @EmilyThornberry My first visit as a minister was a Ryanair flight at 630am
In four years of travelling with Robin Cook at the Foreign Office I never saw anything remotely like this. Is David Cameron trying to be a Bond villain? Or possibly making a rap video?

My message to Londoners: I love our city. Being Mayor is the privilege of my life and the best job in the world. If I'm re-elected, my plans will make London fairer, safer and greener for everyone. If you love London, vote for it.
Unintentionally revealing stuff from Billy Bragg here. He implicitly acknowledges that he couldn't be bothered to do the work - the thinking - for himself. Tribalism rots minds.

Good for President Abbas!
Palestinian President Abbas is being attacked on most Arabic media outlets for saying this👇 All of them cut the first sentence where he said Israel has rights to achieve full security.

I don't understand. Does Vance even deny that his positions and statements align with Moscow propaganda on everything from Ukraine myths like Nazis and corruption to the aid bill to seizing Russian assets? Why should I be ashamed of saying it if he's not ashamed of being it?
Absolutely shameful to call @JDVance1 “pro-Kremlin.” You have no shame, @Kasparov63.

NHS to limit trans ideology with new constitution “Clear language, single-sex wards and access to intimate care provided by a health professional of the same sex are crucial to the wellbeing and safety of female patients. They should never have been compromised.”…
There's not much lower than a man who plays violent contact sports with women.
I've spent years now deeply concerned that grown men's feelings were being prioritised over my disabled daughter's rights to safety, privacy and dignity. I wrote to you to ask who would speak up for my daughter. YOU IGNORED. Where was your empathy, then?
