MYANMAR: ASEAN trade unions and civil society groups slam Myanmar junta's rebranding as civilian gov't www.bwint.org/BwiNews/News...

Federico Escher, head of foreign news at Channel 4 News, gave this powerful speech at the Baftas when Channel 4 won the News Coverage award for "Israel-Iran: The Twelve Day War."

Palantir has been allowed to share your NHS data with whoever the hell they like, allowing them to sell your Health Data worth hundreds of billions to anyone. Your data is will be sold, without a penny going to you.

Energy bills, Food prices and Healthcare charges to the NHS should be capped in the same way.

Booked my car into the local garage as the windscreen washers had completely packed up. Going to collect it now. Rodents had chewed through the pipes, the fuckers. £106.00 - could have been worse... Our lawnmower leaking fuel; rodents have chewed through the pipe. No idea how much that'll cost

In the last 18 years the ONLY sector in the UK that hasn't had 'efficiency cuts' are the billionaires. It's high time for Water bill freezes, Energy bill freezes, Food prices freezes, CEO pay freezes, Banker pay freezes... And if they don't like it they can be renationalised.

The UK privatised almost everything, it has £3tn debt. Norway kept everything nationalised, it has £2tn, shared among 10x less people. Renationalise everything and in 10 years we'd be richer than ever.

Quite notable in that two days ago McKinnell was advocating a change of direction but stopped short of saying that meant a change in leadership. I think that probably goes to show how well this morning's speech has gone down.

"What is it costing us to look the other way when... people are ripped off the street... and you never see them again... What does it cost us a society when we start looking the other way?" An immigration narrative something like this wouldn't go amiss from Keir Starmer. youtu.be/nbzYO_e9xnw?...

So many people just repeat whatever BS they hear on the TV/Radio with no thought, no question, just repeat it because they heard it 1000 times. I swear if they were told everyone needed to die when they are 60 they would throw themselves out of the window on their 60th birthday.

The only way there can be a General Election in the UK is if at least 79 Labour MP's vote No Confidence in their own Party. Which will never happen no matter how many leader changes occur. Apart from that there is no legal way to call an Election.

You know that scene in Friends - Monica - ‘maybe the postman liked the cookies, I just didn’t make him enough? Joey - ‘Monica, pigeons learn faster than you’. ? ….. I thought about that a lot during Starmer’s speech this morning.

The Government's plan to age gate benefits to 22 instead of 18 essentially means that you will not be an adult until you are 22. Will they raise Child benefits to 22 as well? No.

Renationalisation isn't when you takeover failing businesses that the Capitalists don't want anyway. It's when you force purchase massively profitable businesses, like Energy, that they would never want to sell. Because the people demand it.

Catherine West backs down from leadership challenge but “wants the prime minister to set a timetable of September for his departure.” Follows on from Angela Rayner saying that “Andy Burnham should never have been blocked”. All roads lead to Burnham. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

In 1946 with National debt 2.5x higher than it is now, and at a relative cost of over £1tn. Clement Attlee nationalised Steel, Rail, Energy, Healthcare, Fossil Fuel, Telecoms, Aviation... The result the greatest period of growth the UK has ever known. It can be done, and it works.

Here's a link to Starmer's full speech. Maybe you can get further into it than I did without bursting a blood vessel. Apparently, he thinks "taking responsibility" for historic losses means he feels a "responsibity" to explain why the people are wrong and he's still right. Unbelievable! 🤬

New idea. Next time we publish a report on a politician, I’ll keep the politician’s name blanked out for a week, and let everyone take positions before they find out who it is.

I do think this comes down to Starmer basically having none of the qualities that the public say they want in a politician, which is quite rare. So there's nothing for them to latch onto and a lot for them to dislike without any saving graces.

Lets renationalise the businesses that make vast profits, Energy, Housing, Healthcare, Banking, Water, not just ones that are going bankrupt and can't survive without State Aid. That's where all the benefit is.

Only in the USA are staff not paid because they are waiters/waitresses, it all goes backs to when Slaves did these jobs and they didn't force businesses to properly pay them when Slavery was abolished because they didn't want to upset the rich White Owners It's time to end it

Iran has threatened an “immediate decisive response” if British or French warships enter the Strait of Hormuz as part of a planned multinational naval mission to protect commercial shipping in the region. londonlovesbusiness.com/iran-threate...

Question: If someone comes from a working class background, but is now extremely well off (like Keir Starmer) how much will emphasizing their working class roots connect with working class voters struggling to make ends meet? Will class background outweigh perceptions of wealth?

If this speech was the best Starmer could manage, then he's finished. No change, just a presumption we were all too stupid to grasp how good he is. .... And on such an important day, they couldn't even produce a strong image of him. The lighting is flat and the colour is faded – just like him!

Starmer has finally come to the same realisation I have been warning about for years: if a Labour government lets in Reform at the next election, that will be deemed an unforgivable error. Essentially the end of the Labour party if it happens. www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Sorry, Keir, but why should only young people have Freedom of Movement? Why can't British adults also have the freedom to love, live, work, set up business and retire across our continent – like the half a billion citizens of the EU do? Why do your Brexit red lines stop us from doing that?

Starmer says he's going to put the UK "at the heart of Europe". But you can't be the heart if you're outside the body. We need to forget Labour's 'red lines' and start the process of REJOINING. That's why it's great timing that the next National Rejoin March is coming up on 20 June. Be there!

If Keir Starmer thinks he "got the big political decisions right", we'd hate to see what his mistakes look like.

Still going up

The Guardian aren't automatically pro-Labour and pro-Starmer, but they're the closest thing to a friendly eye and ear you'll find anywhere in the British media these days. Starmer's last chance speech this morning did not go down well. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Except he is too much of a narcissist to realise Farage has gone strangely silent on Trump www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Imagine if Keir Starmer got up today and said this ...

We've been trying to tell Labour this for years. But the party has been run for the last decade either by the Bennite wing who hate the EU or the Blue Labour wing who hate the EU – never by the mainstream progressive centre of the party who voted to Remain and now want to Rejoin. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

Keir Starmer, "I want to remind you what Nigel Farage said about Brexit" "He said it would make us richer. Wrong. It made us poorer" "He said it would reduce migration. Wrong. Migration went through the roof" "He said it would make us more secure. Wrong again. It made us weaker"

So has Starmer stabbed anyone in the back yet, or are we still waiting?

Starmer says “We will put Britain at the heart of Europe” The Prime Minister championed restoring the UK back to the 'heart' of Europe. While that resonates with the majority of the country, where is the path that drives over his red lines to get us there? northeastbylines.co.uk/news/europe-...
