Dissent is treated as terrorism, while terrorism is just state policy. #PalestineAction
🇩🇪 German Chancellor Friedrich Merz told Fox News that had Ukraine been accepted into NATO back in 2008, today’s war might have been avoided. He added that only strength brings peace. "If you are weak, you invite aggression, that is why we support Ukraine as long as necessary."
Excessive testosterone
Were there codes?
It did appear that the shooter was in a very accessible position. Death was certain.
Consequences?
It was stuffed with Tory apparatchiks.
Was the shooters death faked?
What?
No smug attitude. More utter frustration at allowing UPFs to kill our people, cripple our health services and mess up our society.
FFS. This Labour Government is such a spineless disappointment. www.theguardian.com/society/ng-i...
Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor used an audience of lawyers to deliver a stern message to the legal profession: stand up for democracy, take on the hard fights and do whatever you can to win. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/just...
Yes. You were lied to. There were zero benefits to leaving. Only downside. Maybe these gullible people will wise up. Their stupidity has cost us all. Sorry to be blunt. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
AOC: This administration — and Noem — spits on the American flag every time they engage in that nonsense. So I don’t want to hear anything about “America First.” These people, and this administration, are putting America last by acting like their allegiance is to a man instead of the Constitution.
Say it louder for the people in the back! #StopTheHate
David Lammy may have misled parliament over UK arms exports to Israel A new report, 'Exposing UK arms exports to Israel' uses data from the Israel Tax Authority to reveal the scale of what Labour are doing www.thecanary.co/uk/news/2025...
How do these barbaric acts of cruelty and genocide by Netanyahu and his enablers devalue the currency of the phrase "anti-semitism" upon which they ubiquitously rely?
A party with no strategy for people with no brain.
Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.
“Reform has reached the tipping point where first-past the-post can aid it. Labour last year won 63% of seats on 34% of votes, Farage could win a majority on puny votes. Electoral reform is now in every party’s interest, and above all, in voters’” Polly Toynbee www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
It’s May the 4th – traditionally the day of Star Wars. But today, let’s check if the Force of Europe is with us. Because our battle is real: for a stronger, reformed Union, free from vetoes, with a directly elected Commission President and a true European defence. 1/2
Why has the UK media focused almost exclusively on Reform's win when the bigger picture is that Lib Dem (whoop, whoop) are quietly accumulating more councillors? And not to mention the swathe of yellow they made through the home counties in the 2024 General Election. Ed Davey is the one to watch.
Only if you can keep it from the billionaires.
Today is the Dortbunt Festival is being held in Leeds twin city Dortmund. Last year we took part in the festival as part of a weekend visit to the city. This is our account in @yorkshirebylines.co.uk yorkshirebylines.co.uk/region/build... @mikegalsworthy.bsky.social
I expect several new pro-voting lawsuits to be filed this week. The best way to stay informed about these new cases and everything happening to democracy in court is to sign up for free to Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
When you look at the statements that were edited out of Trump’s Meet the Press interview that aired on TV, it is pretty rich that he’s suing 60 Minutes over edits to Harris. These are the parts that weren’t shown on air. meidasnews.com/news/what-tr...

I may be the only lawyer targeted by Trump willing to speak on camera, but for me it wasn't a choice. All of us have an obligation to speak out against what Trump is doing. All of us have an obligation to fight for democracy. I am fortunate to be a lawyer and to have a platform -- and I will use it.
As a senior EU official told me at the IMF Spring meetings: “The EU wants to reposition itself with respect to global trade. We want to make the case for it to our national parliaments. We'll definitely see this with respect to Canada now. Ratification of CETA is now a key goal.”
Ok. Where have they left vulnerable?
I wish you luck. And hope Target changes its policy.
Sure!! The other side resisted. Good on them.
The problem for the hard right is that they do not consult. They like to dictate. And as soon as any target of that dictatorship has an opportunity to tell the dictator to “go take a hike” (I am being polite ) then they will do so. Let’s hope the GOP catches on fast.
If Canada and Australia can smash Trumpism why can’t the Brits? Farage is no more than a grifter who runs an entirely dictatorial organisation.
We all must stand up every single day. "If the founding history of this country is any guide, those who stood up in court to vindicate constitutional rights and, by so doing, served to promote the rule of law, will be the models lauded when this period of American history is written." -Judge Howell
Maybe solve the problem and not just symptom.
To all those who said boycotting Target was a waste of time. It wasn't. Keep it up, y'all!
Solar panels to be fitted on all new-build homes in England by 2027 Perfect. Energy security and climate protection all in one. Big oil companies at no different to cigarette companies. They each create a cancer but big oil is truly global cancer.
Very important step taken by France: officially attributing cyber attacks against dozens of FR entities since 2021 to Russia's GRU (it also hacked Macron's campaign emails in 2017) : ministries, defense companies, think tanks etc
Kemi Badenoch keeps calling for inquiries into the rape gangs. I’m just very confused as to why she never thought to look into this important issue herself when she was Minister for Women. #PMQs
Just Trump supporters in another country
If you watch 100 seconds of video on the 100 Days of Trump's hellish second term — pls watch this one of JB Pritzker and pls share it.
A stunning development in Canada: Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre didn’t just lose his bid to become Prime Minister — he lost his own seat in Parliament. Poilievre has officially been defeated in his Carleton riding by Liberal candidate Bruce Fanjoy.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen took multiple swipes at Donald Trump in a speech that laid bare the increasing antagonism across the Atlantic.
BREXIT LABOUR IS LIVING IN THE PAST. Only 11% of British voters still kid themselves that Brexit’s turned out brilliantly. People want Brexit undone not some messy deal that delivers bugger all. Labour is stone dead unless it gets Brexit undone.
We saw the storm brewing a mile away.
The Trump admin's proposed rule in the Federal Register could turn up to 50,000 civil servants into political appointees. There's a mechanism to fight the proposal, but first you have to notice. Then comment. Our latest, @www.AllRiseNews.com www.allrisenews.com/p/trump-purg...

JAPAN ECONOMY MINISTER AKAZAWA: NO CHANGE TO OUR STANCE WE ARE DEMANDING FULL REMOVAL OF U.S. TARIFFS
Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…
Stop saying “democrats are failing” because that includes AOC, Frost, Crockett, Booker etc - and they’re NOT failing. Name the people failing you, and don’t let them drag the whole party down with them.
Ah good. No let up. No cease fire.
Sleepy Don! It was always a projection.
Every other European nation - particularly Germany - should follow suit. www.lemonde.fr/en/france/ar...
Good Hang in there Ukraine and keep hitting oil capacity.
Good move.
Yep
Great. Now send him a load of weapons and take a bow.
To hear AG Pam Bondi say “No one is above the law,” made me choke on my coffee!
The far right always promises “sunny uplands “ and low or no taxes. Idiots fall for the siren call. They only ever benefit the very rich. The good times are always just out of reach for ordinary people.
So change it.
A beautiful day to take a Bill for a ban on biodiversity-destroying pesticide use in urban areas into Parliament! 🌱🐝#GoPesticideFree
This is absolutely brutal
Leadership requires visibility these days. This has always been Starmer's weakness but I am sure it can be addressed. After all, he has truth on his side as opposed to Tory and Farage lies. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
She is right. Sadly America is like that rogue friend who always gets you into trouble. Trump is not our friend and we must not be his patsy. Divorce may be essential and sticking with the EU is imperative.
If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.
We knew this. It’s why those grifting Tories got voted out. Prosecutions need to follow.
USA might be desperate for good news and so, paradoxically, weak right now.
If you Americans have a pandemic like Covid with this guy and Trump at the helm you are going to need your god. And you’ll be disappointed.
Slovakia just passed a law straight out of Putin’s playbook — targeting NGOs and silencing free speech. This is a direct attack on democracy, copied word-for-word from Russia’s oppressive tactics. We cannot accept an EU member state criminalizing dissent and strangling freedom of association. 1/3

They will charge with stones as weapons next. This is the mighty Russian army? It is but a Potemkin thing.
A broken system driven by price gouging. Another example of capitalism failing Americans.
So they concede that Russia invaded - does Trump know?
Whilst true this is no longer news. Where is the resistance? Time for the nice guys to step up.
Time to give Palantir the Tesla and Target treatment. Make it shameful to work there. Organize rallies at their offices.
The UK must decline.
Did everyone forget about war plans on Signal chat? Amazing how trump distracts with all the crap he does www.npr.org/2025/03/24/n...
The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.
This is how to respond to the Abrego Garcia issue! Thank you, Mayor Pete!
And that includes the rest of the world.
I Agree! You?😊💙
Ursula von der Leyen will meet Keir Starmer in London next week as the UK and the EU prepare to discuss closer energy ties as part of a wider Brexit “reset.”
Populists need time to fabricate their lies. Unless you are as adept as Trump.
PM Carney takes questions from ALL media outlets. Unvetted. He takes more than 3 times the number of Poilievre who accepts only questions in advance and from friendly media. A PM is a PM for ALL Canadians. Not a select few. Poilievre is not Prime Minister material. Period. #cdnpoli
We must give the Harvard Finger to the bullies in Washington. While they squat in its desolate halls, the US should go into purdah from the perspective of the more civilised world.
JUST IN: Judge finds 'probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations
He stood for truth. Trump’s now coming after him. What side of this moment will you be on? I stand with Chris Krebs.
In areas where there are *now coastal properties and bushland areas at high risk of damage and growing high insurance and inflation risks due to climate change why would any decent rationale person vote for a untrustworthy petro-state climate change denying party candidate ? #auspol #ausvotes25

The divergence here from two companies with *very* similar customer bases is pretty wild, you do not see this sort of thing happen at scale very often.

“If we stand together, we can defeat Trumpism, we can defeat authoritarianism, and we can defeat oligarchy,” Sanders said. “We can bring a new nation.”
Breaking News: Harvard rejected the Trump administration’s demands, including that it submit to monitoring and reduce the power of faculty and students.
