    #Israel&amp;#39;s 2026 #Knesset #election is today. It&amp;#39;s an #apartheid election: Israeli settlers in the #OccupiedPalestinianTerritories can vote. #Palestinians in the #OPT cannot. The #ExitPoll won&amp;#39;t be released until after voting closes at 8pm GMT. But it is already known that &amp;gt;95% of votes will be cast for parties which support the illegal occupation of the #WestBank &amp;amp; #Gaza, and #genocide in Gaza. This electon is not about whether to stop genocide. It is abo...

    Cheaper #Gherkins wasn&amp;#39;t on my bingo list of #Burnham / #Healey micro-stunts. We seem to be in a political menu of increasingly small micro-dishes. 🙄 But it did trigger a memory of a rhyme circulated in my school days, back in the 17th century: There was a young lad name of Durcan Who was always jerkin&amp;#39; his gherkin. His father said, &amp;quot;Durcan! Stop jerkin&amp;#39; your gherkin! Your gherkin&amp;#39;s for ferkin&amp;#39;, not jerkin. #gherkin #Durcan

    Some talking head somewhere floated the possibility that if the Dems win big enough in the #midterms to impeach #Trump, they will definitely impeach repeatedly until they convict him. So the talking head suggested that the orange arse may resign to avoid #impeachment. I have no idea whether the prediction has any merit. But if Trump does chicken out, he will leave with a huge pile of loot. It would be one of the shortest presidencies and also the most lucrative. #popcorn

    Don&#39;t let the suits &amp; bowler hats fool you. The #OrangeOrder is a hate group, just as much as any thugs in black balaclavas. The #Drumcree dispute is not about the hate group&#39;s freedom to march. The Orange Order has uncontested routes between #Portadown &amp; #Drumcree. This is about the hate group&#39;s demand to march on the Garvaghy Road, past the homes of the people they hate, and who they terrorised in the 1990s. It is not culture &amp; tradition.This is intimidation by a #Ha...

    The criminality of England&#39;s oldies continues to shock. #MerseysidePolice today arrested a 94 year old #terrorist in Liverpool. Even worse, the terrorist #MargaretOwen is also a Jewish human rights barrister. It&#39;s scary to think of the risks to #AndyBurnham&#39;s #LabourParty conference if Owen had remained at large. Thank god that UK taxpayers&#39; funds are used to target these terrorist grannies rather than stopping masked fascists threatening the streets in coastal towns. Phew!...

    The #ParadesCommission&#39;s decision on Friday to allow the #OrangeOrder to march on the Garvaghy Road in #Drumcree has bounced all weekend between High Court judges. It&#39;s still bouncing. https://www.itv.com/news/utv/2026-09-26/drumcree-parade-decision-being-challenged-at-high-court Orangemen try to whitewash the order as a community tradition.

    This #IrishTimes poll sets a record for the most blatantly partisan and mendacious framing I have ever seen in any #OpinionPoll anywhere about anything. 😡 Despite the bias, 68 per cent favour the current model of neutrality over the loaded alternative option. #iepol #neutrality #IrishNeutrality h/t @joenoonan.bsky.social

    #TonyBlair blames #Gaza for it&#39;s plight. Not the #Nakba which turned Gaza into a refugee camp. Not the 59 years of illegal occupation by #Israel. No, the problem according to #Blair is that Gaza resists the occupation. 😡 #Palestine

    RE: https://mastodon.scot/@decembr14/117281931978668917 It would be fun if the #UKgov would call the bluff of #Piddington, by immediately accepting the UDI. Build a secure fence around Piddington. An #ironCurtain style of structure with watchtowers and landmines and self-shooting guns. Ban all trade across the border, including food, water and telecoms. Offer to consider any proposal from Piddlington to open negotiations, subject to as-yet-unspecified preconditions.

    Another #stitchup. England has just spent a fortune on an inquiry founded on lies. 😡 #LucyLetby was the scapegoat for a failed system. The Countess of Chester neonatal unit was in a failing building, plagued by sewage leaks. It was woefully understaffed, and had serious management problems. Letby was framed for crimes that never happened. The Thirlwall Report is a fantasy built on the lies which imprisoned Letby for life. Its recommendations frame nurses as suspects. https://www.theguardian....

    Zionist extremists want the UK to ban Médecins Sans Frontières (#MSF, aka Doctors Without Borders). Yes, really. UK Lawyers for Israel (#LFI) want to ban one of the world&#39;s most important humanitarian organisations, because just one of its staff in #Gaza joined the #Palestinian resistance against Israel&#39;s illegal occupation. MSF had no knowledgedge of this until after the physiotherapist&#39;s death. https://archive.is/YPoUw #ukpol #genocide

    The #AFD in #SaxonyAnhalt has been classed as “rightwing extremist” by #Germany’s domestic intelligence agency. And it has won the state election with about 44% of the votes. The AFD may not be able to form a state government this time, but Germany&#39;s direction of travel is clear. It&#39;s going fascist. Again. And this right turn is accompanied by a massive rearmament programme, cheered on by the rest of NATO. Does nobody else remember the last time that a fascist Germany had a huge war m...

    The USA has spent 250 years trying to replace the monarchy which it evicted in 1776. This week it made a big breakthrough,when the POTUS&#39;s personal lawyer was confirmed as head of the United States Department of Justice, and thereby the chief law enforcement officer of the federal government. #uspol

    &quot;If you are using your microphone, you are more likely to be arrested under the #TerrorismAct&quot;, — warned a heroic officer of the #MetropolitanPolice in #London on Thursday. Luckily for Londoners, this microphone #terrorism was halted by prompt arrest of the #terrorist. I heard no mention of #PalestineAction. It seems that this was a crackdown on Microphone Action. And Karaoke. #MetPol keeps London safe from karaoke. Video via Tony Zimnoch https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1DE6FdubUB...

    &quot;Christian Brother&quot; is an Irish oxymoron. Young men coerced into a life of chastity &amp; poverty in the name of Christ &amp; education. Their own trauma &amp; resentment was infamously vented on their pupils by decades of sadism &amp; #rape. Now they try to evade liability for their crimes. As an unincorporated body, the Christian Brothers cannot be sued unless they provide a &#39;nominee’. The brothers didn&#39;t. So all of the relevant members are being sued individually. https://...

    #London, Thursday: heroic #MetropolitanPolice officers arrested at least 117 terrorists, mostly elderly. In a sinister escalation, many of the terrorists displayed no sign of their opposition to #genocide or support for #PalestineAction. #MetPol arrested the terrorists for the sickening crime of sitting on the pavement. Others were arrested for attending court as summoned. Video by #AmnestyInternational Reports at https://novaramedia.com/2026/07/30/wrongful-arrests-at-palestine-action-demo-...

    The #GreaterManchester Mayoral election votes will be counted today. It looks like an easy win for the #LabourParty&#39;s #BevCraig. That&#39;s a big reversal of the #ReformUK win expected 6 ,months ago when Labour blocked Burnham&#39;s return as MP. But there is a v depressing part of this poll. It shows 100% of Conservative voters giving their second preference to Reform. That&#39;s the result I&#39;ll be watching.
