Just watched #LaterWithJoolsHolland Baby Rose-great songwriter, soulful vocals, the new Joan Amatrading. Lola Young-North London cockney in her speech, great singer, Grammy winner, drug dealer refs in lyrics-the new Amy Winehouse. Everything old is new again. Sigh.

In a country where there is freedom of speech, Leen would have been permitted to speak. But she chose the wrong place to air her views, apparently.
A 17-year-old valedictorian, Leen Hijaz, used her graduation speech to speak for the voiceless: "Millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan. Families torn apart by ICE." The school administrator cut her mic. Told her: "If you don't stop, you're not graduating." They withheld her diploma for four days.

One of the grimmest political tricks of the last 15 years has been convincing the public that disabled people are a bigger economic threat than tax avoidance, private outsourcing failures, or housing costs.

.@LindsayHoyle_MP Dear Sir Lindsay, Helen Whately is misleading the House. No one EVER got a Motability car for tennis elbow or acne. She presents no evidence because there is none. She is lying to whip up hatred of disabled people. Please refer her to the Privileges Committee.

We won’t be intimidated. Once again, the establishment is threatening to ban pro-Palestine demonstrations. There’s only one response: on Saturday, let’s get as many of us as possible on the streets.

We stand with the Allianz6 against this disgraceful lawfare and abuse of the courts to effectively destroy the lives of activists speaking out against corporate complicity in the Gaza genocide. thecorbynproject.com/news/we…

Just a reminder that this creep took part in two coups against Corbyn and helped shaft Labours chances at the 2019 general election. #StarmerLies

Sigh…
Every now and then, whilst watching the demise of this awful so called Labour government, I remember how they trashed the hope Corbyn gave to hundreds of thousands of people — just to deliver us this complete and utter shitshow.

Palantir has been granted “unlimited access” to NHS patient data. This is the same company that is involved in mass surveillance and genocide. We did not consent to this. Get Palantir out of our NHS, now.
