RAPE IS NEVER THE VICTIMS FAULT. RAPE IS ALWAYS THE PERPETRATORS FAULT.
Cornell Professor Says Rape Is Never Victim's Fault, Stands With Jane Doe tmz.me/4AT4wWG
Novara Media isn’t anti establishment, the Green Party leadership aren’t socialists and the Labour Party isn’t going to stop being Neo liberal. If you want truly left wing revolutionary politics, read Lenin and Che Guevara.
It’s laughable to see the Green Party leadership sweating because their party has passed an anti Zionism motion. Stop worrying about what the media thinks, and start worrying about Zionists who are destroying our planet

Zionism’s founders: We want to remove the native population and occupy their land.
Israel: *proceeds to dispossess Palestinians, entrench apartheid, and commit genocide*
Liberals: But zionism can mean many things, it’s not always racist.
Just don’t take this stuff seriously

Green Party recognises Zionism as a form of racism and backs single Palestinian state
Kyle Williamson retweeted
Zionism is racism because Palestinian refugees are banned from returning to their homeland *because* they are Palestinian. It is not a matter of debate. It doesn’t mean multiple things. This is a factual description of a racist project.

🚨 NEW: Zack Polanski says he is an "anti-Zionist" and that Zionism is a form of racism
"If you’re defining Zionism as the displacement and genocide of the Palestinians, which is how in practice Zionism has become in truth, then that is racist"
You going to call on Israel to stop blocking aid into Gaza then?
Grain from Ukraine feeds people all over the world.
But Russia is blocking exports through the Black Sea and is deliberately causing global food insecurity.
The EU is calling for attacks to stop and grain to flow again.
Food must never be used as a weapon of war.

The Met Police ignoring every single report detailing institutional racism…

Ok, so expel the ambassador, join the South Africa legal case, and investigate, under suspicion of war crimes, all British citizens who volunteered with Israeli forces in Gaza.
UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband on Gaza:
All of us condemn in the strongest terms the murder that Hamas did on October the 7th, but nothing can justify what has unfolded in Gaza since then.
And actually, you know, it’s worth saying since the ceasefire, the so-called ceasefire, 1,200 Palestinians have been killed.
You know, that is not much of a ceasefire.
Kazakhstan is one of the nicest countries that I’ve been to. The food here is amazing, the people have been very friendly and the views from across Almaty make you feel like you’re in a film. Tomorrow I wake up in Astana to see what a more contemporary city has to offer
Who came up with this? It’s like they know the delay is inevitable

Just people causally worshipping a war criminal that committed ethnic cleansing against their neighbours. No big deal

BREAKING: Since @AndyBurnham became PM on 20 July, he's authorised at least 8 military planes to go from RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk to Israel
All of them, apart from one, had their operator withheld

Have you tried not being a douchbag? It works really well
Some men are skipping showers before dates to embrace a new trend called “pheromone-maxxing," hoping their natural scent will make them more attractive.
But experts say the science behind the dating strategy is far from settled:
"There is no evidence of a consistent and strong behavioral response to any human-produced chemical cue. To date, scientists have collected evidence for possible pheromone effects but have not definitively identified a single human pheromone," Scientific American explained.

Might have been wise not to frame this as 'public ownership fixes private sector mess' when it was the DfT which procured said trains.
This is public ownership of our railways in action.
Less than 100 days since we nationalised Britain's biggest train operator, we are delivering changes passengers have been asking for.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The seats referenced were specified by the Department for Transport during Class 700 procurement (2008-2013), not chosen by private operators; trains entered service in 2016.

An ex Brown era cabinet minister not being establishment? Do you need to give your head a shake?
"Burnham's vibe is not establishment."
Guardian columnist Jonathan Freedland says it's difficult for the Green Party to run an "anti-establishment" campaign against PM Andy Burnham.

I believe @Starbucks doesn’t pay Corporation Tax in the UK and they have shops in many high streets
It's now easier to report dodgy shops, as we ramp up our work to tackle illegal activity on the high street.
Our improved Report Tax Fraud service on GOV.UK lets you shop businesses you suspect are involved in fraud, money laundering or other criminal activity – helping you join the fight against rule-breaking retailers.
All reports can be submitted anonymously.
The Financial Secretary to the Treasury, @jamesmurray_ldn MP, shows you how easy it is to report fraud online. It’s closing time for high street crime.
