@simongerman600 Yuh, this system is flatlining. Time to re-imagine better?

Not nearly enough people are following @WeDefendIran26!

A dark, dark, future lies in front of us. A future where you can receive a phone call presenting you with an ultimatum; to be killed in your car with your family or to get out and run only to be chased and killed by a drone controlled by a psychotic teenager sitting in a bunker a few kilometres away. What is being tested on us today will be used on you tomorrow.

Well, well, well. I've just received an email from the House of Commons saying the govt won't support a public inquiry into pro-Israel lobbying activity our politics & democracy. Not surprising considering how many cabinet ministers and MPs are bankrolled by pro-Israel lobbyists

Argentinian voter: “I voted for Javier Milei and now I can't afford rent. I’ll either vote for Milei again or I’ll leave the country, but I’ll still never vote for the socialists.” Owning the left by owning nothing at all. This is what capitalist indoctrination does to a person.

As wealth concentrates, so does power — the power to influence elections, shape policy, tilt markets and define the terms of public debate. That’s why we’ve been told for far too long that tax reform is politically infeasible, too complex, and too radical. Taxing billionaires is not radical. What is radical is allowing a system where extreme wealth exists alongside widespread hardship — and where billionaires can in effect opt out of contributing to the society that made their success possible.

BREAKING: 🇨🇳 President of China, Xi Jinping: “A certain country, obsessed with maintaining its hegemony, has done everything possible to cripple emerging markets and developing nations. Whoever progresses rapidly becomes a target of containment; whoever catches up becomes a threat. But all of this is futile. The world we live in today is a community with a shared future. People do not want a new Cold War; they want a world of lasting peace and universal security."

This👇is quite extraordinary, showing how much Trump is uniting Europeans on all sides 𝒂𝒈𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒕 him Elly Schlein, Leader of Italy's largest opposition party, (herself 50/50🇮🇹🇺🇸) furiously condemns Trump's attacks on her opponent Meloni. The whole Chamber stands up to applaud the whole time. My English s/t👇 "Italy is a free and sovereign country. Our Constitution is clear - Italy repudiates war. No foreign Head of State has the right to attack, threaten or disrespect our country or government. We are opponents in this Chamber, but we are all Italian citizens and Italian MPs. We are asking for unanimous condemnation of these attacks and threats"

the stock market is not the economy. it was never designed to measure your economic wellbeing. it measures how efficiently the wealthy are extracting value from the working class. @butchware on the Better Future Pod:

Abominable propaganda.

@premnsikka Our democracy is under attack; this is political posturing to shrink the state and bolster the military-industrial shitplex.

Ridiculous statement from Ex Nato chief - UK unprepared for war due to an “ever-expanding welfare budget”. 25.3m people live below minimum income standard. Since 2010 HMRC failed to collect £500bn of taxes. Does he think poor/ill make better defenders itv.com/news/2026-04-1…

Α message from @ofercass: The Al-Bustan neighborhood is being erased… and where is the world? In a severe and unprecedented escalation, the Jerusalem municipality demolished 47 homes in the Al-Bustan neighborhood in Silwan, south of Al-Aqsa Mosque, representing approximately 50% of the neighborhood’s houses. This move reflects a clear acceleration in the implementation of a policy of forced displacement and demographic reshaping of the city. It is worth noting that the majority of the demolitions were carried out after October 7th, exploiting the state of war and emergency, and the diversion of the international community’s attention toward the wars in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran. This situation created an environment of reduced accountability and limited oversight, alongside the neutralization of many humanitarian institutions operating on the ground. This is not merely a municipal action, but part of a systematic strategy aimed at pushing out the indigenous residents, using formal legal cover, while hundreds of families are left without shelter and without any real solutions. A final call: To whatever remains of international organizations, European bodies, and diplomatic missions — silence is not neutrality, but active complicity. What is required now is a move beyond statements of concern toward concrete action: political pressure, legal accountability, and the imposition of costs on this policy. The Al-Bustan neighborhood is being demolished before the eyes of the world… Is there anyone left who can stop it?

@Alonso_GD Oooooo and he is indeed the grandson of 'that' Mosley, the leader of the fascists. Amazing, a leopard doesn't change it's spots, it seems.

Wait… Mosley? As in those Mosleys?

@Alonso_GD He just... lies. So patronising, and such utter bollocks.

Torching the @InternetArchive & the @WayBackMachine is akin to burning the Library of Alexandria and wiping our digital memory - at a moment when media corporations & the government want to hermetically seal us in a bubble of their propaganda. We can't let this happen.

Apple made headlines last week when it basically erased Southern Lebanon from Apple Maps But as @KeiPritsker explains, Apple's ties to Israel are far deeper than most realize In fact, its most recent acquisition in Israel is its second largest buyout of all-time

So this article from the latest @PrivateEyeNews states that Teesside Freeport is going to close down. Considering Teesside Freeport was Sunak's flagship Brexit freeport/SEZ policy, which was one small cog in the wider free zones rollout, 74 SEZs, 12 Freeports, and now 5 AI Growth Zones, (all fully backed/extended by Starmer's Labour government), what are the implications for the rest of these free zones now that Teesside has collapsed? It should also be noted that the original amount of state aid allocated to each UK freeport was £25 million. Teesside freeport was lavished with £560 million in state aid, profits generated by this were 9 - 10 split in favour of the private sector. If Teesside required £560 million to fail, what's the true cost across the entire programme? Labour has inherited and expanded this architecture without apparent scrutiny of Teesside's financial implosion. How can the 9-10 private profit split be justified when public entities carry the debt?

I've been leaked a letter from the Telegraph's new owners. It's now mandatory for the Telegraph's journalists to support Israel. And their new owner's record is deeply disturbing 👇 owenjones.news/p/at-the-teleg…

Here's the problem with @BBCNews and the UK media in a nutshell.... On Tuesday, @declassifiedUK published a major undercover investigation, showing how British citizens are being offered help to move to illegal settlements in the West Bank. It also revealed that the Israeli charity behind it had claimed it could benefit from UK Gift Aid. Not a single mainstream news outlet has covered our findings, despite it going viral on social media. Then, this morning, the BBC published their own undercover investigation - showing how a small number of migrants facing deportation from the UK make false claims in order to try and stay here. Within hours of publishing, the BBC's story has been picked up by the Daily Mail, Telegraph, GB News and others. It's not that their story is "wrong" or shouldn't be reported at all. It's the choice of what to spend time and resources on. And the fact that the mainstream media systematically ignores independent media. Support @declassifiedUK and other independent media!!

"IF THE DRYING CONTINUES — and the researchers warn that it is now nearly impossible to reverse “on human timescales” — it heralds “potentially staggering” and cascading risks for global order."

BREAKING - @zarahsultana exercises Parliamentary Privilege to expose the unjust nature of the Filton 24 re-trial. UK press has been court ordered not to publish these details. “If convicted, they and 18 others will be sentenced as terrorists, but the jury will not be told that”
