"To reject the movement of decolonisation *as it actually is*, ostensibly on Marxist grounds, is to become not only an idealist, but *a renegade*"

The breakfasts are not free. They are paid for by taxes - mostly on parents who feed their own kids. Most of these 10,000 children would have had a perfectly healthy breakfast at home without these clubs. This isn't about helping the poorest kids, it's the state taking over the basic job of parenting.

My pleasure to welcome @Keir_Starmer @AndyBurnhamGM and @bphillipsonMP to Holy Trinity primary school in Ashton this morning. 33 new free breakfast clubs will open across Greater Manchester this week, giving 10,000 more children a free, healthy start to the school day. That’s Labour on your side. 🌹

@wesstreeting Because of all people, Wes Streeting is a paragon of credibility?

Have you managed to get Scottish Green candidates to drop calls to abolish prisons or is this a competition with the ‘breast enlargement hypnotherapist’ down south as to which of you can hold the wackiest position?
Ross Greer@Ross_Greer
Whatever this is, it's not democracy. Westminster treats Scotland with absolute contempt. Let's demand better. Vote @scottishgreens on your regional (peach) ballot to guarantee that pro-independence majority on May 7th 🏴💚🗳️

@MorEdge_Insight @LilyRoslynWest @No_Drama_Lama_ @geertwilderspvv What pliant Arab governments think, maybe.
Either way, it wouldn't be a problem if Israel hadn't tried to murder a whole population. Being against that is supposedly what Holocaust memorial is about, not the exceptional status of Jewish grief.
English
@LilyRoslynWest @No_Drama_Lama_ @geertwilderspvv We have that same feeling not just for the Netherlands but for Europe as a whole, especially here in the UK, and we are strongly considering and beginning the process of leaving the UK and Europe altogether.
English
On the day of Holocaust Remembrance Day, Dutch activists and pro Palestine propagandists decided to cover the entire Dam Square in Amsterdam with children’s shoes representing the children of Gaza in an attempt to appropriate and steal the memory of the 6 million Jews murdered by the Nazis.
The fact it was even allowed is so sick. I honestly now hope Europe completely falls to Islamists. They fucking deserve it.
English
@MorEdge_Insight They weren't really stealing the memory of the 6 million Jews - or the millions of Romani, gays, socialists, etc. - murdered by the Nazis.
They were commemorating them, emphasising the phrase "Never Again" to show that it is, in fact, happening again.
English
@Workshops4Gaza I think this quote captures the fundamental contradiction of anarchism - it claims to want revolution, but abdicates authority at the crucial moment because 'power is oppressive', leaving the door wide open for the enemy.
English
"As they were departing, I was struck by a French anarchist student who proclaimed 'Let chaos reign.' I exclaimed that the Palestinian people were an example of a society in chaos w/o authority and leadership, which as a result, was left at the mercy of the Zionist oppressor."
English
"I hadn’t met Western 'revolutionaries' before. It turned out they represented an unfamiliar cultural phenomenon. Some seemed to have read the historic political literature of the left, but most regarded the Marxist-Leninist leaders disdainfully." redsails.org/anarchism-vs-n…

Try to find the difference between Italy's @espressonline magazine and the Nazi Der Sturmer's depiction of Jews. I was not able to see any difference. Any Holocaust museum and scholar who is silent in the face of such antisemitism has forgotten the main lesson of the Holocaust--do not remain silent in the face of evil.

@GBNT1952 Yes, he probably would be.
By Israel.

It’s wild that the Pope is pushing Chrislamism when he knows that if he went to say Gaza, Lebanon, or Syria right now without armed guards, he would likely be executed on live camera for the entire word to see.
But yeah, peace and love and all of that…

Russia is our enemy.

Interview with Hassan Ahmadian back in January of this year: (Translated from Arabic). "Russia does not want to support Iran with fighter jets in order to maintain Israel's air superiority, and China does not consider Iran an economically important country for it."

So many problems on 'the left' (multipolarism, inverse "it's-all-part-of-their-plan" imperial chauvinism, "Zionists-occupy-America"-style fascism, etc.) can be solved by just listening to the resistance.
Taking those in the fight as the baseline.
Maybe the Maoists had a point.
الأخ الكبير@BIG__Brother7
@VanessaBeeley Multipolar world enthusiasts on this app would have you believe this is Russia and China’s war, not Iran’s. When Iran downs an F-35, they attribute it to some random Chinese video explaining how to do it. When Iran carries out a precise operation, they credit Russia.

The supreme leader issued a religious edict against the development of a nuclear weapon and you murdered him. It would completely understandable if the new leadership in Iran concluded that they would not be facing the U.S., Israeli war if they had secured a nuclear weapon.
Fox News@FoxNews
BREAKING: President Trump reveals there won't be a deal with Iran until the regime agrees to NEVER have a nuclear weapon: “Iran will not have a nuclear weapon, and we agreed to a lot of things, but they didn’t agree to that... If they don’t agree, there’s no deal. There’ll never be a deal. Iran will not have a nuclear weapon."

@GodandtheBear They did have her back until she sold them out the moment she took office.
But yeah, they're the ones "never satisfied".

If she were a leftists for real it would come natural with no work to be like us.

Third world protests are where its at girl. You pick the stone from the building material on the side of the road and burn the tires, you at least show the ruling class you can threaten them. The best useless West does is talking about Marx and throw dildos.

will the closeted fascists (liberals) now tell us how continuing a peaceful sit in protest would have forced the govt to give in?

@RabbiPoupko @espressonline @GSDeutch @Olivia_Reingold @EFischberger @KassyAkiva @JeremyUnplugged @HuntersOfNazis @AvivaKlompas "Innocent soldier" is a contradiction in terms.
"Innocent Israeli soldier" is a physical impossibility.
The abuser is *always* the occupier.
English
So we now have footage of the antisemitic photo published on the cover of @espressonline what's the title "l'abuso" which means "abuse.
Watch for yourself and decide if it's the innocent soldier or the Palestinian woman.
English
@RabbiPoupko @espressonline The difference is that Der Sturmer shows a racist drawing, while L'Espresso shows an unedited photo of a real soldier taunting a woman whose home he's actually stolen.
And Holocaust scholars didn't remain silent in the face of evil - that's why you called them antisemites too.

הסיבה שהתמונה בשער השבועון האיטלקי שפורסמה לפני כמה ימים הרטיטה את הלב היהודי, היא הזיכרון הקולקטיבי, והדימיון המבחיל של התמונה הזאת לתעמולה נאצית - נאצית ממש, לא כסופרלטיב. התמונה החדשה משמאל מזכירה לנו את התמונה הוותיקה מימין (שיש עוד רבות כמותה), שהיא חלק מתעמולת “היהודי כמחלל טוהר הגזע”. האסתטיקה ברורה: גבר מכוער, עם איזה שיבוש, מראה מרושע, וחזות יהודית במובנה הלא-מחמיא, מאיים על אישה יפה, תמימה ומאויימת, ומטריד אותה. מה שמעניין עוד יותר בתמונה הימנית, היא שהיא גרועה פחות מהתמונה השמאלית. אינסטנקטיבית, היא מעוררת חלחלה - אבל למעשה, לא קורה בתמונה הזאת דבר. זה פשוט חייל עם מראה לא נעים מחזיק טלפון מול אישה ערבייה צעירה ויפה שנראית מאויימת. אולי יש פה 'מטאפורה על הכיבוש' - אבל בוודאי אין פה תיעוד לפשע. לכן, אם נעמיק בזה, נבין מה עושה התמונה הזאת: היא מעוררת בנו רתיעה פיזית (כי קטנים ועלובים הם, לצערנו, בני האדם ביחס לכיעור), שהופכת לרתיעה ערכית. אמנם בפחות גסות, אבל זאת אותה הטכניקה של הבמאי הנאצי פריץ היפּלר שביים את הסרט "היהודי הנצחי", בו הציג יהודים לצד עכברושים פשוט על מנת לגרום לרתיעה הפיזית להפוך לרתיעה ערכית. שאפו. לצד הקריקטורה של פוליטיקו, שלפחות הוסרה, התעמולה האנטי-ישראלית חושפת את פניה האנטישמיות בבירור.

Usually Israel puts sexualized attractive women in uniforms as the image of their military, so of course they think a REAL photograph of their own sociopathy is ‘manipulative’ because they expect Western press only to publish materials Israel provides to them.

Condanniamo fermamente l’uso manipolatorio della recente copertina de L’Espresso. L'immagine distorce la complessa realtà con cui Israele deve convivere, promuovendo stereotipi e odio. Un giornalismo responsabile deve essere equilibrato e corretto. #MediaResponsibility
