Wavertree Fights Back #annsan4wavertree

Join us each Friday at 12 outside the former #Wavertree One Stop Shop on Picton Road. We're protesting against Labour's austerity and Council cuts and fighting for the services we need. All welcome.

No - They must go now!

🚨 The UK Ministry of Defence just confirmed the drone that hit their base in Cyprus was not launched from Iran. Not Iran. So who launched it? A British base in Cyprus. A Saudi oil refinery. Turkey. Israel present in all three incidents. Someone is attacking Western and Gulf targets and making it look like Iran — to drag more countries into this war. This is a false flag operation unfolding in real time.

RAPE. He raped a little boy. Call it what it is.

Allowing British bases to be used in an illegal war of aggression is a catastrophic and historic mistake. Britain has been dragged into another war because our Prime Minister would rather appease Donald Trump than stand up for international law. War is not a game. This shameful decision makes Britain complicit in the devastating consequences ahead - and jeopardises the safety of us all.

The High Court has ruled that Labour's proscription of Palestine Action was ILLEGAL and must be quashed. We'll continue to campaign against this law until it's gone forever! Opposing genocide is not a crime! #PalestineWillBeFree #IsraelisGenocidalState #StarmerOutNow

THREAD 1/2 Why the Mandelson scandal exposes how power really works - and why Corbyn still terrifies the establishment “Mandelson wasn’t an aberration. He is the system.”
- @Jonathan_K_Cook 
Here’s what most still fail to grasp: Jeremy Corbyn didn’t frighten the establishment because of radical rhetoric. Politicians spout radical talk all the time. Talk changes nothing. Corbyn terrified them because he operated outside their networks. His campaigns were funded by ordinary people, not corporations. He didn’t seek establishment approval. He didn’t trade favours for support. He didn’t owe them anything. He refused to play their insider game. Which meant they had no leverage. They couldn’t warn him off quietly.
They couldn’t apply pressure behind closed doors.
They couldn’t buy him off later with directorships, peerages, status. That’s what made him dangerous.
Not his words - his independence. They couldn’t manage him.
So they worked to destroy him. And they said so openly. In 2017, Peter Mandelson announced he was working “every single day” to bring Corbyn down. By 2023, he was out canvassing against him in Islington North.
Extraordinary resources were deployed to remove one backbencher from Parliament. 
Now observe the contrast. Some figures move through the system untouched.
Their mistakes get buried.
Their conduct goes unexamined.
Their claims pass without serious scrutiny. Not because they’re more radical.
Because they threaten nothing. They don’t disrupt power.
They don’t force uncomfortable choices.
They don’t interfere with how decisions are actually made. That’s why they’re handled gently. 
Keir Starmer is the template. He wasn’t elevated for brilliance.
He was elevated because he poses no risk. Cautious.
Status-conscious.
Instinctively deferential to institutions, donors, media barons.
Dependent on establishment validation for authority. That’s the type the system rewards.
Not independence.
Not disruption.
Not backbone. He can be managed. 
Mandelson’s appointment as US ambassador exposed this starkly. Other candidates existed. The choice was about what Mandelson represents - and how the system rewards loyalty to itself. Continuity with wealthy donors.
Reassurance for markets and corporate power.
A known quantity for Washington.
A guarantee nothing fundamental would shift. Yes, Mandelson is compromised.
Yes, his record stinks. But more than that: he’s embedded in networks of money, influence and power that have repeatedly shielded him from consequences - including proximity to corrupt regimes, predatory operators and criminal allegations serious enough to have finished anyone less connected. None of that outweighed what mattered most:
he could be relied upon to serve the system’s interests. That’s why neither London nor Washington blocked him. Envoys aren’t chosen for integrity.
They’re chosen for alignment, predictability and control. From that perspective, Mandelson was familiar and manageable.
Everything else was detail. 
Starmer himself is disposable - just quietly so.
If he stumbles or becomes a liability, he’ll be replaced.
The system won’t miss a beat. 
Corbyn was different.
Even from opposition, he remade the landscape. He mobilised millions.
He forced over 40 government U-turns.
He set the terms without asking permission - on wages, public ownership, peace and austerity. He demonstrated that power could be challenged without playing by their rules. That’s why he’s still being marginalised.
That’s why those genuinely aligned with him get smeared.
And that’s why louder, more theatrical, more divisive figures - who fragment movements rather than build majorities - so often get soft treatment and convenient amplification. Continues…

I’ve been contacted by THREE Labour Party whistleblowers, inc. a former frontbencher, + been passed a sensitive Excel spreadsheet by a senior politician in Scotland. The evidence is clear: Mandelson + McSweeney built a covert network of Labour MPs. Here’s what they’re hiding:🧵

This is the racist video Donald Trump posted. This is where we're at.

Through our live link with Trade Unionists in Italy today the MPA sent our solidarity to Dockers who will be striking against all those involved in the continuing genocide against Palestine. #PalestineWillBeFree #IsraelisGenocidalState #strike

Doesn’t the greed of this make you sick ? Doesn’t the cruel obscenity make you recoil in horror ? Let’s fight like hell to get decent people in their place but above everything the new party must have mandatory reselection procedures and automatic recall for MPs councillors and delegates. We won’t take it any more

Leading the fight for free speech are those campaigning to un proscribe Palestine Action- if you agree please join those of us summoned to court charged under anti terror legislation for holding a piece of paper Tuesday 11/11 at 9 am Westminster Magistrates Court. Stand with us.

Save the world from Israel

Support Audrey White & others who were arrested for peacefully opposing genocide. Join us at 9:30 am outside Westminster Magistrates Court on 11/11/25. Our basic human rights are being stolen from us by a government that's complicit in genocide. #FreedomOfSpeech #HumanRights

We decided to go the night before for cheaper train tickets and have booked a premier inn for the night. It still cost us over £250 . But of course the post isn’t about me it’s about the discrimination against those who live outside of London, the elderly and disabled who cannot travel and I ask you, who wants to speak to the court to defend themselves against charges under the terrorist act by zoom ? our witnesses are discriminated against too and what about inclusion. Massive numbers of people, for all sorts of reasons have no access, or the ability, to use the technology for zoom etc? Does anyone give a jot that these people are excluded?

Every Friday, we campaign against @UKLabour cuts that are crippling our communities. We're fighting for pensioners & all generations that follow us! #StarmerOutNow @jeremycorbyn @zarahsultana #Palestine

Liverpool yesterday

We told you this two years ago – and you punished those who spoke out. Every single day this Labour government delays scrapping the two-child benefit cap, over 350,000 children are suffering in avoidable poverty. Just get on with it and end the cruelty now.

So basically, Reform are promising to deport people who work in the NHS and who work as carers, delivery drivers, warehouse workers,, Shop workers .. This is the sort of far right BNP/EDL type policy that wouldn't have been seen as serious policy a decade ago.This policy will strip communities and workplaces of intregral members. Hitler started like this.....

Trump's first visit required a staggering £3.9 million [$5.3m] as security measures were heightened to safeguard the divisive leader. This one will cost more. Meanwhile people sleep on the streets & children go to school hungry! #StarmerOut #TrumpEpsteinCoverup #GazaGenocide

The so called 'soft power' of the UK is about as much use as a silencer on a bomb to the Palestinians #Trump #StarmerOut
