creatingsocialism.org/050824… My take on what has been happening with the far right and what should happen next, but won't.
The Epstein files are about more than just rich men abusing young vulnerable women. They are an insight into how business is done in 21st Century Capitalism. My latest Substack post:

In case anybody was under any illusions about Rayner’s socialist credentials, this pretty much nails it. They didn’t even get an invite to the inauguration. They’re having to grovel at a distance.
Congratulations to @JDVance on becoming US Vice President.
As Deputy Prime Minister, I know we’ll work closely together to strengthen the vital UK-US bond and deliver for our citizens. Look forward to speaking soon.

Incredibly powerful die-in for Gaza outside Downing St
We know it’s a genocide. The World knows it’s a genocide.

Antiracists are filling the streets of London today #StandUpToRacism
Labour wants to drive more pensioners into poverty. Why should they pay for the mess created by our political class? My latest piece for Critical Mass News.

This is absolutely brilliant.

Brazilian artist João Brutto Adnet used his art to express solidarity with Gaza in a creative way in Dublin. 🇵🇸🍉

And yet @BBCNews have not one word to say about it. This shows the depth of feeling against Israel and the ongoing genocide. #FreePalesine

We’ll never forget the night in 2017 when fire engulfed Grenfell Tower, killing 72 people. But who was to blame? “We need to look at the events at Grenfell not as a one off tragedy but the inevitability of unfettered free market capitalism,” says @davmidd creatingsocialism.org/opinio…
Morning Mani I think a lot of folk are debunking to #BlueSky or just getting off social media altogether.
I’ve kept Howard and Ray in this list even though their accounts remain suspended - who will be next? Ann Marcial’s account I is inactive and @ScouseSocialis2 isn’t following me 🤔
Haven’t looked on here for a week. It seems this is now a haven for the right spouting common sense which seems suspiciously like the same common sense all the other people replying to tweets are using.

🚨This weekend: On Saturday and Sunday there are a number of counter protests against the far right to stop them marching.
Thousands have come out over the past two weeks to drive the far right back. But there is a lot more work to do. Below is a thread of the anti-fascist protests you can join 🧵👇🏽

I’ve read this and it seems the only ones who are directed to do anything are Hamas and Iran. Israel it seems have done nothing wrong and murdering 39,000 people whist laying waste to their homes is simply a negotiating tactic. Or am I missing something? #Free_Free_Palestaine
A joint statement from the leaders of France, Germany and the United Kingdom on the Middle East.
ALT We, the leaders of France, Germany and the United Kingdom, welcome the tireless work of our partners in Qatar, Egypt and the United States towards an agreement on a ceasefire and the release of hostages. We endorse the joint statement of HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al Thani, President Sisi and President Biden calling for the immediate resumption of negotiations. We agree that there can be no further delay. We have been working with all parties to prevent escalation and will spare no effort to reduce tensions and find a path to stability. The fighting must end now, and all hostages still detained by Hamas must be released. The people of Gaza need urgent and unfettered delivery and distribution of aid. Read the full statement in the link below.
