There was no protective ring around care homes; but there obviously is one around Michelle Mone and Dido Harding

Watch Reform Council Leader George Finch being called out for whataboutery on Politics Midlands after reeling off a list of other parties' past indiscretions. He is then handed his arse on a plate by the Lib Dem panellist for claiming swift action was taken against those featured in the ITV undercover documentary. His facial expressions say it all.

1940: “Germany, frankly, has been fine on Poland, France, Belgium and Holland. They haven’t been doing much.”
Trump: "Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much."

Think of all the anarchists you've ever heard about
Like Kropotkin and Proudhon, cats and mink
There are lots of funny anarchists in all this world
But have you ever seen a rioter that is pink?
Think!
An anarchist that's positively pink
Well here he is, the pink panther

It's been almost a year... and @ThatAlexWoman still hasn't clarified what she knew and what she was doing with Russian agents (Nadia Sass, Oleh Voloshyn) in Ukraine together with Nathan Gill.
Alex, so outspoken about everything, avoids this topic more than any other.
@grok tell us what is known about Nadia Sass and Oleh Voloshyn roles in the jailing of Nathan Gill.

The more I think about this the more stunning it is.
How can a Shadow Culture Secretary think this?
You're supposed to advocate for the sector - use critical thinking and strategy to level up EVERY sector- not decimate one for another.
Clowns in circuses have more sense.
We will cut the arts & culture budget by £1bn in order to fund 50,000 prison places. Keeping rapists and other dangerous offenders locked up is a priority for the @Conservatives. We will always put community safety first.
@RichmoMusic If you need help understanding the numbers, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Always happy to talk you through.

Truly disgusting what the Republican Party and parts of our media have normalized on this country. Just open naked racism and bigotry and mockery of minorities. Can you imagine a Muhammad or Abdullah in the schoolground getting bullied by kids who heard the president do it first?

Llamar a un colegio Margaret Thatcher y no terminarlo por falta de inversion publica me parece cinema verite.
🏫El colegio Margaret Thatcher de Barajas encadena 12 años de retrasos y vuelve a quedarse con las obras paralizadas.
Los vecinos llevan desde 2014 esperando la conclusión del centro.

Meta employees admitted the US corporation censored the Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp accounts of Brazil's left-wing President Lula da Silva in the lead-up to this month's election.
Meta also promoted the accounts of far-right pro-US candidate Flávio Bolsonaro.
Meta claimed this was supposedly because of "technical issues".
But what this really shows is how real democracy is impossible when US Big Tech corporations are used to manipulate elections around the world, to put in power right-wing US puppets who will sell out their country to US corporations and the US government (see: the recent US electoral interference in Colombia, Honduras, Peru, Argentina, etc.)
The CIA previously focused on organizing military coups to overthrow independent left-wing leaders and install right-wing pro-imperialist ones. Now it's much easier: Silicon Valley helps the US empire carry out soft coups by manipulating public opinion and interfering in elections.

“The bad news is that some of you will lose your jobs. The good news is that I’ve been promoted so…
…You’re still thinking about the bad news, aren’t you?”
🚨 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗭𝗬 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: Arsenal are planning to SACK 60 EMPLOYEES to save money, just days after giving Mikel Arteta a new contract worth £25 MILLION per year.
Mikel Arteta earns around £68,500 PER DAY.
For comparison, someone earning £30,000 a year would have to work for more than TWO YEARS to earn what Arteta makes in just ONE DAY.
