#OnThisDay 1984. The infamous police assault upon miners takes place at Orgreave.
At least 79 people were injured in the worst displays of police brutality seen during the #MinersStrike
Labour members, quick poll. If the ridiculous leadership challenge happens, who will you vote for? @UKLabour Please share a wider response. Comment if you are a member and vote.
The Starmer "rent boys" smear was pumped around this platform by the usual plastic-patriot-cosplay accounts: conspiracists, rage-farmers, blue-tick sludge merchants and people who somehow always end up pumping out exactly the shit Moscow would prefer.
Paid? "Useful idiots"?
Or just addicted to any lie that hurt the right target?
Fuck knows. (But maybe someone should try to find out!)
But if your politics makes you indistinguishable from a hostile-state distribution network, you should probably stop calling it patriotism.

Come with me as I commute from home in Swindon to Westminster 🚴♀️
After launching the Government’s new Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy (CWIS), the journey was a good reminder of why active travel matters.
8 days after the MP Jo Cox was brutally shot and murdered Farage boasted he'd won the Brexit referendum "without a single bullet being fired"
Farage is scum.
🚨 I'm posting this video everyday so we NEVER forget what Donald Trump wants Americans to forget about what he did on Jan 6!
Do you agree that THIS is what an insurrection looks like. 👇👇👇
🚨🚨 🚨I'm posting this video every day so we NEVER forget what insurrectionist Donald Trump did on J6
Instead of accepting defeat and honoring the peaceful transfer of power, Trump unleashed a deadly mob on the U.S. Capitol in a last-ditch attempt to stay in power
THIS is what an insurrection looks like 👇👇👇
Nigel Farage pocketed a £5m “gift” and hid it from the public.
Now he may be lobbying to help keep lining the pockets of his billionaire Thai-based crypto backer.
The stench of this scandal grows by the day.

I DID NOT vote for Andy Burnham in the previous two leadership elections.
I DID vote for Keir Starmer in the leadership election.
I WILL vote for Keir Starmer again.

Not a single Reform politician has praised the UK armed forces for the interception of a Russian tanker, nor the UK police for the foiling of the Russian sponsored terrorist arson attacks on the Prime Minister's property, nor condemned the Russian frigate firing on a British boat in the English Channel.
Labour’s plan to cut illegal immigration is working.
Arrests linked to immigration crime are up by 55%, and we’ve removed over 70,000 people with no right to be here.
🔔 A new Youth Hub has been confirmed for West Northamptonshire.
Jobcentre support, mental health advice, skills training and employer links, all under one roof, for 16 to 24 year olds.
Starmer is only unpopular because our right wing media and Russian influence has persuaded the masses so. Anyone with half a brain knows he is the best PM for many years and has already delivered on many of Labours manifesto pledges.
Seems bizarre to me that the press aren’t going bigger on the fact that Russia targeted Keir Starmer’s house and car.
We are currently about to start a Leadership contest as Starmer is seen as unpopular, but no-one is discussing the clear Russian interference on social media.
