The anti-racist protests in London last night felt electric. But honestly my heroes are those who showed out in parts of the country where outnumbering the fascists was not guaranteed. Thank you - we owe you so much.
This fascinating Nature study (link in the bottom) by @jasonhickel and others should destroy for ever the myth that workers in the Global South "steal jobs" at the expense of the Global North.
They find an astonishing metric that "while Southern workers contribute 90% of the…
For once Sky has it spot on:
‘A thumping majority without a thumping share of the vote’
Starmer has less votes than Jeremy Corbyn in 2017 because he only offers more of the same
It’s not just a bad day for democracy.
It’s a dangerous day for democracy.
It’s happening in Bristol Central.
Voters are rejecting Starmer.
They are saying no to red tories.
They are saying no to more austerity.
They are saying no to those who have supported genocide.
The Greens, SNP, Plaid and Left Independents offer hope.
Do not vote Labour.
@UKLabour You must know ousting democratically selected people of colour & replacing them with people of the same colour that you’ve chosen is straight from the colonial playbook? Because we do. It doesn’t make you less racist; it makes your racism more cynical. #StandwithFaiza
Any energy put into the Labour Party is wasted energy.
Service it provides to the British oligarchy is to absorb and neutralise the left.
Same goes for its propaganda arm: the Guardian.
Think bigger. Now is the time. They'll win the election, but whole edifice is crumbling.
If the liberal media let Keir Starmer get away with treating a talented, local and incredibly talented candidate like this, we've crossed a democratic rubicon. The thugs at the top of Labour think there are no limits to what they can get away with. They need to be proven wrong.

What a response by students and staff. Literally driving cops off campus a night after they brutally erased a peaceful encampment demanding divestment and boycott from Israel
BREAKING 🇪🇨 Ecuador votes NO in the referendum on investor-state arbitration (ISDS), rejecting President Noboa’s underhanded efforts to override the Constitution to protect foreign investors over labor rights, Indigenous communities, and environmental regulations.
This is unbelievable…
Watch @J_Klinsmann dismiss brown athletes, from Iran to Guatemala, repeatedly saying “this is their culture”, while the host and other guests are sitting there listening to him go on and on, live on @BBCSport.
Spirit of Shankly on potential sale of #LFC: "We expect both the Supporters Board and SOS to be engaged in some part of the process so that supporters are front and centre of any sale and the first thoughts of prospective owners."
Rather than spend his entire life on a super-yacht in the Mediterranean, Rishi Sunak — who is wealthier than the King — has taken up a life in politics explicitly *not* to help people. What sort of person does this? What is wrong with him?
BREAKING: 185 nations around the world have called on the US to end its embargo of Cuba.
Only the US and Israel voted against the resolution, while Ukraine and Brazil abstained.
This obsession with ‘working hard’ and ‘hard working families’ is depressingly Victorian. We live in an age of machines that can do all that stuff for us. People should be having more diverse and more fulfilled lives, not grinding away until they die.
There are basically no "ethical" means to acquire a fortune of £730,000,000
Rishi Sunak's wealth is not "aspirational" – it is not a "success story." Fortunes like £730,000,000 are, nearly always stories of tax evasion, contract corruption, and political influence.
Politics aside, one has to acknowledge that Sunak sends a powerful message to people of colour - if you go to public school, amass a fortune, become the richest MP in parliament and with your wife have a joint asset worth larger than the King’s, you too can become prime minister.
