    Hamas/Israel conflict: news and discussion

    The whole world sees these double-standards. The last mainstream politician in power in Britain who I can think of that had even a tiny bit of credibility was Robin Cook. People scoffed when he spoke about an ethical foreign policy, but the intention was genuine. And he had time for this spat...

    Hamas/Israel conflict: news and discussion

    TBF the answer from a Labour party MP doesn't surprise me. It's the line they have been taking. Not following US but trying for a centre ground approach. Of course when it comes to Ukraine that's different...

    Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson is an embarrassment to journalism

    Presumably, the decision is not in any way connected with these comments four days ago: Starmer says police should focus on ‘what matters most’ amid Pearson tweet investigation

    Vote for Musk

    Trump absolutely is charismatic. I'm not sure why anyone would bother to deny that tbh, it's not an endorsement of him to say that, all sorts of appalling people are charismatic. He couldn't do what he has if he was the US Keir Starmer though could he.

    I'm sorry I missed that first time round!

    *Poem of the day thread

    I first encountered that one this summer, as a result of Hannah Proctor having a dream "that some people came to my house campaigning for Keir Starmer. They were in matching suits and bizarrely their doorstep chant was like a hideous Labour Right rewrite of Zoe Leonard’s I Want a Dyke for...

    The kulaks are revolting - does Urban back big farmer?

    You're not in Lincolnshire now, hillbillyboy.

    Hamas/Israel conflict: news and discussion

    ...an expert gives his opinion on Starmer's weasel words of a couple of weeks ago which I hope he comes to regret: “I'm well aware of the definition of genocide, and that is why I've never described this as and referred to it as genocide.” Expert weighs in on Keir Starmer's denial of genocide...

    Nothing wrong with showing solidarity with agricultural workers, but marching with the cunts that exploit them doesn't look like the smartest move from JSO.

    Keir Starmer's time is up

    Just Stop Oil have also joined the protests today: It's almost like some people can see beyond the crude stereotypes of farmers and are rightly raising the more profound consequences. Meanwhile, London born and Surrey raised Keir Starmer claims he's basically from farming stock...

    Keir Starmer's time is up

    I'll get upset by this when corrupt gurdwara committees stop allowing the consumption of alcohol on gurdwara premises during bullshit OTT wedding ceremonies. Also, we don't fucking well celebrate Diwali, we're not Hindus! We celebrate Bandi Chhor Diwas.

    The Left Failing Young Men (and how to reclaim the Left from liberals)

    The same Fabians who supported exploitation of colonies for Domestic welfare in Britain?

    The Left Failing Young Men (and how to reclaim the Left from liberals)

    It was Fabians who wrote the old Clause IV of the Labour Party, inspired by the Revolution in Russia, and adopted in 1918. Keir Starmer and his ministers certainly do not want to achieve the collective ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange.

    Gender idealism?

    Who is Jonathan Reynolds? Starmer and Streeting may be members of the Fabian Society, but they are not "reformist" Fabians. They are neo-liberals. Things have change more than a little in the past 100 years in Britain.

    I've plenty of practising Sikhs in my family that both eat meat and drink booze...this is a storm in a teacup.

    Meanwhile, here is Sir Keir Starmer with members of the Arunima Kumar Dance Company during a reception that he hosted to mark Diwali ... (Source: as stated in image) ... at which meat and alcohol were served. Cows are considered a sacred animal by Hindus, and and many choose not to eat...
