Before the mass revolt in Kenya spread countrywide in June, it had started in the informal settlement area of Mathare. Wairimu Gathimba looks at the long struggle by residents to remain in the city & what we can learn from their battle to keep their homes. roape.net/2024/07/19/fir…

@BreakfastRuins Still have these. Loved them. My first introduction to Mike (apart from the Elric Conan comic crossover). Some other good material and a slightly dodgy Jerry Cornelius takeoff.

Relistening to Julian Simpson’s radio LOVECRAFT INVESTIGATIONS once more. First time I’ve been out and about with headphones. New plus, it has some seriously psychedelic stereo sound effects that I missed before. #CartoonGravity

@JoeBanksWriter Saw them in 1985 at London’s Electric Ballroom supported by Nik Turner’s Inner City Unit. That was a great gig.

Just listening to Hüsker Dü's Flip Your Wig, what a band and what an album - I love the fact it ends with two instrumentals. Probably only me, but The Wit And The Wisdom always reminds me of the theme music to The Book Tower youtube.com/watch?v=aKHXDi…... youtube.com/watch?v=NmJndo…

Those are the Argyll & Sutherlands, who were defeated & forced out of Aden. The Brits created the template for the Israeli repression of the Palestinians, & used the same methods in Ireland. Looking forward to seeing the IDF going down to defeat, like the Brits before them.

This was how British soldiers behaved when Britain still occupied Yemen in the 1960s. Sixty years later, the UK is engaged in airstrikes against Yemen. The British elites responsible for this brutality are a bloody disgrace and bring shame on our country.

After 100+ redundancies in 2023, the VC @uniofbrighton used her first email of 2024 to announce:
👋Voluntary severance scheme
💀Plan to remove all entitlement to research time from academics
🛑Plan to remove the weekly cap on teaching hours
Haven't they caused enough damage?!

The UoB VC gets PGRs to fill in the massive gaps in teaching created by sacking everyone
Yet also says PGRs aren't proper academics and says we should get a pay cut🤔
How much contempt is it possible for one VC to have for its staff and students?

It is with great sadness the family of John Pilger announce he died yesterday 30 December 2023 in London aged 84. His journalism and documentaries were celebrated around the world, but to his family he was simply the most amazing and loved Dad, Grandad and partner. Rest In Peace.

Climate strike week 278. The final outcome of #COP28 is not a “historic win”, it is yet another example of extremely vague and watered down texts full of loopholes that in no way is even close to being sufficient for staying within the 1,5° limit and ensure climate justice.

Looks like police thought Jews anywhere near a pro-Palestinian demo needed protecting! Just goes to show how necessary the J Bloc is, to undermine the poisonous, divisive narrative that all Jews are anti-Palestinian.
