- People can’t feed their kids, heat their homes, see a GP or a dentist, or even protest without being criminalised, while the super-rich avoid tax & buy more homes & yachts. What kind of society? And why are we not exercising our collective power to bring this nonsense to an end?
- Britain celebrates protests in China even as it outlaws them in Britain!
- So Labour’s share of the vote down on that what they achieved under Corbyn in 2018. Bet you don’t hear that said out loud very often.
- There’s a rumour circulating that Labour MPs are supposed to represent their constituents, not Israeli lobbyists. Is this true?
- Please RT in solidarity with @jeremycorbyn and against the organised campaign to oust him as Labour leader by smearing him as a terrorist sympathiser and/or racist. This kind of ‘dirty politics’ is farcical, sick and unacceptable whatever people’s personal political leanings.
- Lets make it very clear. The pro-Israeli lobby and the anti-Corbyn lobby within the Labour Party are weaponising antisemitism to try and prevent a pro-Palestinian, socialist becoming PM. And no, I’m not an antisemite. Got it now? #JC4PM
- We need a full investigation of the extent to which Israeli money and influence is shaping UK party politics. And NO this is NOT an antisemitic trope! Keep your nerve people.
- Galloway has had a greater impact in the post-Corbyn era than all of Labour’s socialist MPs put together. There’s a lesson there.
- I despise Keir Starmer as a leader and a person.
- We seem now to be in the absurd situation where you can say anything you like about any country and its policies with the exception of Israel! Don’t go along with this dangerous nonsense. Israel is an apartheid state currently committing war crimes in Gaza. RT if you agree.
- If you’re ever tempted to think highly of any of the Tory leadership candidates, just check their voting records. They are all of them 100% committed to the privileged, prosperous ‘few’.
