Hatred and division pays better clicks; literally race click baiting. In the decline of advertising revenue, theyāre harvesting the reform rhetoric. Right wing media profits from hate.

Someone as smart as he purports to be would know that by reversing the damage of Brexit and upholding decency when it comes to the most vulnerable would at least appease half of the electorate. The other half are chasing a vile and impossible lie anyway.

I think thereās probably a medium. The protest in parliament square (couldnāt get up to trafalgar sq), was small. 500 people max by 1pm. Probably only 200 in the ākettleā. Some arrests were made prior. But the 550 figure would have meant the whole protest. Certainly police outnumbered public in PS.

When you have police arresting en masse and with intent at a peaceful protest against a genocide, and not handcuffing other people throwing things at immigration accommodation, we have a problem. We have the problem of believing that humans are disposable. @mrjamesob.bsky.social

People protesting on Saturday in London were most likely grass roots labour supporters. Once again Starmer chooses to fill deep from the pockets of the Israel lobby in opposition to his party. This is NOT labour.
Rachel Coates (@coatescan.bsky.social)
The real disappointment from the Police heavy handedness at the support for Palestine on Saturday is that the take home message was about our government and its authoritarianism, not children being starved as collateral. This will now taint civil action in the future.
Rachel Coates (@coatescan.bsky.social) reply parent
I was seeing a constant flow of police taking someone out - mostly by their wrists and ankles - then going back in for more. In two hours I probably saw one arrest every five minutes. I donāt think the figures are far off. 800 prison places were āclearedā in anticipation. There was an intent.

I think it had to do with Starmer being too deep in the pockets of Israeli lobby groups and pressure to kerb anti-Israel sentiment. The Brize incident was a convenient way to create a false narrative of āterrorismā which was cynically pushed through parliament. Today was the result of that.
