The tragic parable of Rishi Sunak: driven by success at all costs, then undone by his own myth-making | Nesrine Malik | The Guardian theguardian.com/commentisfre…

If you're an ethnic minority holding a position of power and influence, don't cry when you're racially abused when you literally lead a party who's overt racism is longstanding, ingrained and regular. When you facilitate racism, don't think they won't come for you some day.

"Labour are so dangerous we can't even shop at our imaginary Waitrose!"

Historian @DavidOlusoga on inequality, the key challenge facing the next UK government after July’s election.

All the spectacle of cruelty, the trauma and harm done to the most vulnerable people in society - all for nothing. So relieved the flights are unlikely to go but what a shitshow. All those people living in fear of this threat just so Tories could look tough. Grim.

Instead of sharing the clip of Bastani’s claptrap… I’m resharing this; People in the asylum system want to work. They are skilful, talented people. Government refusal to lift the ban costs us £1.2M in lost revenue.

We thought the English language had peaked with the literal majesty of "Platty Jubes." But we were wrong. "Anno for the the snappy g." These are days of miracle and wonder.

For those not educated in British politics, let me explain what Rishi Sunak means when he condemns ‘extremist forces’ in the UK. ‘Extremist forces’ are when people take exception to the UK’s complicity in genocide, ethnic cleansing, settler-colonialism and illegal occupations. ‘Extremist forces’ are when people disagree with the UK’s illegal foreign policy decisions to fund and arm and support Israel as they’re investigated by the ICJ under the Genocide Convention. ‘Extremist forces’ are when people don’t want innocent men, women and children to be slaughtered or starved to death, en masse, with full British military support funded by their taxes. ‘Extremist forces’ are when the people reject the ignorant, bloodthirsty duopoly where you can only choose between two war criminals with different colour rosettes yet no other discernible difference. ‘Extremist forces’ are when people demand human rights for everyone, even those who aren’t white or British—the fucking audacity, right?! ‘Extremist forces’ are when people exercise their democratic right and vote for a candidate that has told them he will fight for representation of the issues they care about but that the Establishment want swept under the rug. ‘Extremist forces’ are everything that challenges the broken, corrupt, deceitful, incompetent, greedy, tyrannically government of this here little island, and any of the disgusting and illegal decisions it might make that demonstrably destroy the moral fibre of this world. I hope this helps!
