Views my own.
Keir Starmer will be remembered mainly for his incitement and facilitation of the Gaza Holocaust. I predict Burnham will do nothing to change the extremist Zionist course the British Labour Party have taken, and he will continue to lock up anti-genocide activists as "terrorists".

At this stage, even if Israel actually started bombing EU countries, Ireland included, we’d *still* refuse to impose sanctions on this terrorist regime, for fear of hurting their feelings.

Media’s pro-Western bias is often blatant, sometimes subtle but always omnipresent.
Below is an example of the latter.

I know why, but it’s still mad how a NATO member like Spain can refuse US military aircraft like this while neutral Ireland always allows it, spanning everything from the Iraq War to present.
15 US military aircraft have left the Rota and Morón air bases after Spain refused to allow them to be used for operations related to Iran, Reuters reports.

The US killing one and hundred fifty school children in a single attack on Iran has apparently been universally decided to be a non story by the Western press. Not front page news, not in the highlights, instantly memory holed. Profession and institutions worse than worthless.

The daft thing is that with Proportional Representation there'd be no need for this self-destructive war within Labour. It could split into its component parts - left and right - and people could vote for what they wanted. It's only First-Past-the-Post that forces these irreconcilables together.

The Epstein Files ought to comprise the easiest political case against the billionaire class ever conceived. Any politician who supports policies favouring the ultra-wealthy should never be able to escape this association.

Lol at the sight of all these Blueshirt whimps who didn't lift a finger against the occupation of their own country now acting like hard men over Ukraine.
Tánaiste Simon Harris says he was 'rather horrified' to see Sinn Féin vote against a motion seeking approval for Ireland to contribute to an EU loan for Ukraine worth €90bn.

'I think that's a very significant development,' he said today in Croatia. jrnl.ie/6942663
Sinn Féin accused of 'populist rhetoric' over comments about lending money to Ukraine
Sinn Féin argues that the €90 billion EU loan, which Ireland will contribute to, will mostly be used for military purposes.

Rest in power Michael Parenti, one of my favourite writers of all time.

He had an ability like few others to make Marxism accessible and exciting, which is badly needed in today's world of rising fascism.

His books clarified so much for me and ultimately led to me becoming a Marxist.

The sickening hypocrisy from Nazis like Von Der Leyen who cheered on the Gaza genocide is the reason I, along a growing number of others, would love to see Ireland leave the EU.
The rising number of casualties in Iran is horrifying. I unequivocally condemn the excessive use of force and continued restriction of freedom.

The European Union has already listed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in its entirety under its human rights sanctions regime.

The Irish government is getting advice from someone who not only took part in the criminal war of aggression in Iraq, but actually served in the forces of occupation the north east of Ireland. We are not a serious country.
The Department of Defence recruited a British Army colonel – who served in the occupation of the north of Ireland and invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan – to advise a state body tasked with reforming the Irish Defence Forces.

Must read from @stephenbaker.bsky.social
and Phil Ramsey on public service media in a reunified Ireland.

We need ‘a media capable of contributing to a rich, participatory democracy… truthful and as culturally creative and convivial as the people who live here’.

Says the monster who cheers on the Gaza Holocaust.
Our Union is not perfect, but it is a promise.

That cooperation is stronger than confrontation.

That law is stronger than force.

Principles that apply not only to our European Union, but equally to Greenland.

We stand by the people of Venezuela and support a peaceful and democratic transition.

Any solution must respect international law and the UN Charter.

The international legal system was destroyed by fascist Netanhyahu and his liberal collaborator Biden. Another grim precedent in the world's descent into fascism has been set by Trump in kidnapping of an elected head of state.

The civilised world must stand against the barbarians in Washington.

Disgraceful petty partitionism by @rte.ie

All Irish citizens - including those in the north - should be able to watch the biggest sporting occasion of the year on our national broadcaster. It wouldn't be tolerated for a second if people in Connaught or Leinster were excluded in the same way.

No one should be talking about a fantasy "peace" agreement between Israel and Palestine. We cannot make peace with Zionism. It's as absurd as saying we should have made peace with Nazi Germany.

Both Israel and Zionism must dismantled in full.
