Steve Busfield 🇵🇸

Karl Marx: ❝The English worker hates the Irish worker as a competitor who lowers his standard of life. He regards himself as a part of the ruling nation & becomes a tool of the English capitalists against Ireland, thus strengthening their domination over himself. The English worker cherishes religious and social prejudices against the Irish worker. His attitude is the same as that of the poor whites to the blacks in the USA. This antagonism is artificially intensified by the press & all the means at the disposal of the ruling classes. The Irishman does the same and sees in the English worker only the accomplice of the English rulers. This antagonism is the secret of the impotence of the working class. It is the secret by which the capitalist class maintains its power. The alternative is class solidarity.❞

@jmullinjourno @Heineken 🤣 Now that was funny. My Mum texted exactly the same thing about two minutes ago

@Busfield @Heineken Can you tell these teams apart?

Love the #SixNations. Watched it with my grandad when I was young. Love the anthems, the rivalries & apparently I’m also a sucker for big blue letters painted on the pitch. As a teetotal rugby experience I’d heartily recommend @Heineken 00. And Seabrook’s crisps

@jmullinjourno @Heineken Not sure it works given your reaction 🤣. Particularly satisfying to watch #SuperSaturday after a competitive outing with #CCJFC at lunchtime, justifying the sofa extravaganza

@Busfield @Heineken Brilliant

@jmullinjourno @Heineken Joke?

@Busfield @Heineken But but… that’s Guinness….

Who else has no @virginmedia services in NW5? I know I’m not alone … the community @WhatsApp group is going nuts about it

@PigtownDesign It’s the name of the student I most often mention in their lessons. He talks incessantly

@Busfield this is terrific! i want to know what you really said!

Another generation of Year 9s who like to sketch provide a #newprofilepicture

This football club, eh? 🤣

Former General of the US Army Wesley Clark on the military strategy after 9/11 attacks - "We are going to take out 7 countries in 5 years: Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and finishing it off with Iran" [2007] #september11th

86 years ago today, Woody Guthrie penned “This Land Is Your Land” in response to Irving Berlin’s “God Bless America.” It was among the first songs to be chosen by the Library of Congress for inclusion in the National Recording Registry. Woody Guthrie had written “This machine k!lls fascists” on his guitar.

Who the fuck cares? Does anyone seriously believe traditional @UKLabour voters and activists can see any difference or improvement between Starmer and Streeting. These people have nothing to offer us or the country

Just settled down to watch some Olympics with my tea (bangers & mash). But I just can't take Sliding-through-a-sports-centre-on-a-tea-tray seriously

1979-1980 with the election of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. Far Right Rupert Murdoch's privatisation puppets. Over the next 2 decades Western Government were dismantled and sold to billionaires. The damage you see is Public Services replaced with billionaires profits.

🤣 Worst penalty ever. Unless he’s trying to pretend he did it for justice? 😆

This is not a good look for #AFCONFinal. A disallowed goal for Senegal, an incident so similar to the penalty awarded to Morocco two minutes later, Senegal disappearing down the tunnel before the penalty could be taken … please miss this penalty and give us extra time

Seeing this pattern a lot across Telegraph, Daily Mail, etc…

The last time Vale scored in the league was when I saw us at Wimbledon two months ago. Today was a distinct improvement #SuperValeAway

These are the eight prisoners taking part in what is thought to be the biggest hunger strike in UK history since Irish republicans began refusing food in 1981. Tonight it has emerged that five of them have been taken to hospital. Two haven't eaten for nearly 39 days.
